Minimum Capital FAQs
(All)
1. How and when is a GSE’s Minimum Capital requirement determined?
2. Is AOCI included in the Minimum Capital calculations?
3. Why do both GSEs need to maintain 30% of the required capital in excess of the statutory minimum capital requirement?
4. If I have a question about Minimum Capital but can not locate the answer on the FHFA web site, how do I submit my question?
