The Federal Housing Finance Agency’s Office of Inspector General reported last week that Freddie Mac will increase its repurchase requests to between $0.8 billion and $1.2 billion this year and between $2.2 billion and $3.4 billion overall following its review of the GSE’s settlement agreement with Bank of America in January 2011. A year ago the OIG took the FHFA to task for approving what the IG considered a lowball $1.35 billion agreement from BofA to Freddie to settle current and future repurchase claims.
