Contributing Treasury’s warrants for common stock of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to the affordable housing funds is one of the ways that the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights says the GSEs can help earmark financial resources toward affordable housing. In a June report published by the Leadership Conference, the organization offered a few of its housing finance recommendations to support affordable housing goals. The report noted that often lost in public discussion of the GSE conservatorships is the fact that the Treasury owns warrants for 79.9 percent of the common stock of both Fannie and Freddie. “The value of the warrants could easily exceed $100 billion,” the group said in its recommendation.
