    In 1970, Ginnie Mae addressed hese impedimens o new

    Issuers in he Ginnie Mae program are qual ified insiuions

    ha are individually approved and closely moniored

    by Ginnie Maes deailed risk managemen ramework.

    Ginnie Mae Issuers are diverse in size and geography and

    include morgage companies, commercial banks, hrifs,

    credi unions, and sae housing finance agencies (HFA)

    (see Figure 1).

    Invesors seek he Ginnie Mae guarany, coupled wih

    an expeced rae o reurn higher han U.S. Governmen

    securiies. Te Ginnie Mae MBS is highly liquid and atracive

    o domesic and oreign invesors. Tis liquidiy is passed

    on o lenders who can use he proceeds rom new securiy

    issuances o make new morgage loans.

    Acive invesor ineres ensures he capial flow o Ginnie Mae

    guaraneed securiies (as depicted in Figure 2) which helpso lower financing coss, which in urn suppors accessible

    and affordable renal housing and homeownership. Because

    he securiies are backed by he ull aih and credi o he

    U.S. Governmen, he invesor marke is larger and broader,

    and financing is available a lower morgage ineres raes,

    which benefis borrowers and reners.

    Ginnie Maes Risk Model

    Ginnie Mae is a mono-line business ha insures only Issuer

    perormance. Tere are hree levels o proecion ha mus

    be exhaused beore he Ginnie Mae guarany is a risk:

    homeowner equiy, he insurance provided by he Federal

    Governmen agency ha insured he loans, and he corporae

    mus exhaus is corporae resourcesusually hroughbankrupcybeore Ginnie Mae will ake on he Issuers

    perormance o Issuers in heir servicing responsibiliies and

    requiring hem o make principal and ineres paymens

    o invesors unil hey can no longer do so, Ginnie Mae

    significanly reduces axpayer exposure o r isk.

    Notes to the Financial Statements

    September 30, 2013 and 2012

    Note 1: Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

    The Government National Mortgage Association (Ginnie Mae) was created in 1968, through anamendment of Title III of the National Housing Act as a government corporation within theUnited States (U.S.) Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The Mortgage-

    Backed Securities (MBS) program is Ginnie Maes primary ongoing activity. Its purpose is toincrease liquidity in the secondary mortgage market and attract new sources of capital for

    residential mortgage loans. Through the program, Ginnie Mae guarantees the timely payment ofprincipal and interest on securities backed by pools of mortgages issued by private institutions.

    This guaranty is backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. Ginnie Mae requiresthat the mortgages be insured or guaranteed by the U.S. Federal Housing Administration (FHA),

    another government Corporation within HUD, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), theDepartment of Veterans Affairs (VA), or the HUD Office of Public and Indian Housing (PIH).

    These MBS are not assets of Ginnie Mae, nor are the related outstanding securities liabilities;accordingly, neither is reflected on the accompanying Balance Sheets.

    To ensure that adequate capital continues to flow to the mortgage markets, Ginnie Mae offers

    reliable solutions that meet the needs of a broad constituent base and provide sufficient flexibilityto respond to market changes. At the core of its business model and its product offering menu is

    the simple pass-through security, which comes in the form of two product structuresGinnieMae I MBS and Ginnie Mae II MBS. Each Ginnie Mae product structure has specific

    characteristics regarding pool types, note rates, collateral, payment dates, and geographicallocations.

    The underlying source of loans for the Ginnie Mae I MBS and Ginnie Mae II MBS comes fromGinnie Maes following four main programs, whichserve a variety of loan financing needs anddifferent issuer origination capabilities:

    Single Family Program The majority of Ginnie Mae securities are backed by single

    family mortgages predominantly originated through FHA and VA loan insuranceprograms.

    Multifamily Program Ginnie Mae insures securities backed by FHA and USDApurchase and refinance loans for the purchase, construction, and renovation of apartmentbuildings, hospitals, nursing homes, and assisted living facilities.

    HMBS Program Ginnie Maes Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM) securities

    program provides capital and liquidity for FHA-insured reverse mortgages. HECM loansare insured separately from regular single family mortgages due to their unique cash flowand fee structure. HECM loans can be pooled into HECM Mortgage Backed Securities

    (HMBS) within the Ginnie Mae II MBS program.

    Manufactured Housing Program Ginnie Maes Manufactured Housing programallows the issuance of pools of loans insured by FHAs Title I Manufactured Home Loan

    Program.

    Basis of Presentation: The accompanying financial statements have been prepared inaccordance with accounting principles generally accepted in U.S. GAAP as established by the

    Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB).

    Funds with U.S. Treasury: All Ginnie Mae receipts and disbursements are processed by theU.S. Treasury Department, which in effect maintains Ginnie Maes bank accounts. All funds are

    accessible in the event of a default. For purposes of the Statements of Cash Flow, Funds withU.S. Treasury are considered cash.

    U.S. Government Securities: U.S. Government Securities are classified as held for investment

    as Ginnie Mae has both the ability and the intent to hold them until their maturity, andaccordingly, they are carried at amortized cost. Interest income on such securities is presented on

    the Statements of Revenues and Expenses and Changes in Investment of U.S. Government(Statements of Revenues and Expenses). Discounts and premiums are amortized, on a level yield

    basis, over the life of the related security.

    Financial Guarantees: Ginnie Mae, as guarantor, follows the guidance in FASB Accounting

    Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 460, Guarantees (ASC 460), for its accounting for, anddisclosure of, the issuance of certain types of guarantees. ASC 460 requires that upon issuance

    of a guaranty, the guarantor must recognize a liability for the fair value of the obligation itassumes under the guaranty. The issuance of a guaranty under the MBS program obligates

    Ginnie Mae to stand ready to perform over the term of the guaranty in the event that the specifiedtriggering events or conditions occur. This means Ginnie Mae will advance funds to investors

    and service an issuers portfolio in the event of their default.

    At inception of the guaranty, Ginnie Mae recognizes a liability for the guaranty it provides onMBSs issued by third-party issuers. Generally, a guaranty liability is initially measured at fair

    value. However, Ginnie Mae applies the practical expedient in ASC 460, which allows the

    guaranty liability to be recognized at inception based on the premium received or receivable bythe guarantor, provided the guaranty is issued in a standalone arms length transaction with anunrelated party.

    Ginnie Mae provides the guaranty of principal and interest payments to MBS holders in the

    event of issuer default and, in exchange, receives monthly guaranty fees from the issuers on theunpaid principal balance of the outstanding MBSs in the non-defaulted issuer portfolio.

    Accordingly, the guaranty asset is based on the expected present value of these fees, taking intoaccount anticipated amortization of defaults and prepayments.

    Additionally, as the guaranty is issued in a standalone transaction for a premium, Ginnie Mae

    records a guaranty liability to recognize the future expense for its guaranty as the offsetting entryfor the guaranty asset. Thus, there is no impact from the guaranty liability and asset on the netfinancial position of Ginnie Mae.

    Mortgage Servicing Rights:Mortgage Servicing Rights (MSR) represent Ginnie Maes right

    and obligation to service mortgage loans in mortgage backed securities obtained from defaultedissuers. Ginnie Mae contracts with multiple Master Subservicers (MSS) to provide the servicing

    51/76

    7

    of its mortgage loans. The servicing functions typically performed by Ginnie Maes MSSsinclude: collecting and remitting loan payments, responding to borrower inquiries, accounting

    for principal and interest, holding custodial funds for payment of property taxes and insurancepremiums, counseling delinquent mortgagors, supervising foreclosures and property dispositions,

    and generally administering the loans. Ginnie Mae receives a weighted average servicing feeannually on the remaining outstanding principal balances of the loans. These servicing fees are

    included in and collected from the monthly payments made by the borrowers. Ginnie Mae pays aservicing expense to the MSSs in consideration for servicing the loans.

    Ginnie Mae records a servicing asset or liability each time it takes over a defaulted issuers

    Ginnie Mae-guaranteed portfolio. The balance of the MSR represents the present value of theestimated compensation for mortgage servicing activities that exceeds the fair market cost for

    such servicing activities. Ginnie Mae considers its fair market cost to be the amount ofcompensation that would be required by a substitute MSS should one be required. Typically, the

    benefits of servicing are expected to be more than adequate compensation to a servicer forperforming the servicing, and the contract results in a servicing asset. However, if the benefits of

    servicing are not expected to adequately compensate a servicer for performing the servicing, the

    contract results in a servicing liability.

    Ginnie Mae has elected the fair value option for the MSRs to better reflect the potential net

    realizable or market value that could be ultimately realized from the disposition of the MSR assetor the settlement of a future MSR liability. Ginnie Mae uses a valuation model that calculates

    the present value of estimated future net servicing income to determine the fair value of MSRs,which factors in key economic assumptions and inputs used in valuations of MSRs include

    prepayment rates, cost to service a loan, contractual servicing fee income, ancillary income,escrow account earnings, and the discount rate. The discount rate is used to estimate the present

    value of the projected cash flows in order to estimate the fair value of the MSRs. The discountrate assumptions reflect the markets required rate of return adjusted for the relative risk of the

    asset type. This approach consists of projecting servicing cash flows and estimating the presentvalue of these cash flows using discount rates. Upon acquisition, Ginnie Mae measures its

    MSRs at fair value and subsequently re-measures the assets or liabilities with changes in the fairvalue recorded in the Statements of Revenues and Expenses.

    Advances Against Defaulted MBS Pools: Advances against defaulted MBS pools representpass-through payments made to fulfill Ginnie Maes guaranty of timely principal and interest

    payments to MBS security holders. The advances are reported net of an allowance to the extentthat management believes that they will not be recovered. The allowance for uncollectible

    advances is estimated based on actual and expected recovery experience including expectedrecoveries from FHA, USDA, VA and PIH. Other factors considered in the estimate include

    market analysis and appraised value of the loans. These loans are still accruing interest becausethey have not reached the required delinquency thresholds and purchased from the defaulted

    issuer pools.

    Once Ginnie Mae purchases the loans from the pools after the 90 and 120 day delinquencythresholds for Manufactured Housing and Single Family loans, respectively, the loans are

    reclassified as Mortgage Loans Held for Investment (HFI) below. Ginnie Mae records a charge-

    8

    off as a reduction to the allowance for loan losses when losses are confirmed through the receiptof assets in full satisfaction of a loan, such as the receipt of claims proceeds from an insuring

    agency or underlying collateral upon foreclosure.

    Mortgage Loans HFI: When a Ginnie Mae issuer defaults, Ginnie Mae is required to step intothe role of the issuer and make the timely pass-through payments to investors, and subsequently,

    assumes the servicing rights and obligations of the issuers entire Ginnie Mae guaranteed, pooledloan portfolio of the defaulted issuer. Ginnie Mae utilizes the MSSs to service these portfolios.

    There are currently two MSSs for Single Family and one MSS for Manufactured Housingdefaulted issuers. These MSSs currently service 100% of all non-pooled loans.

    In its role as servicer, Ginnie Mae assesses individual loans within its pooled portfolio to

    determine whether the loan must be purchased out of the pool as required by the Ginnie MaeMBS Guide. Ginnie Mae purchases mortgage loans out of the MBS pool when:

    A. Mortgage loans are uninsured by the FHA, USDA, VA or PIHB. Mortgage loans were previously insured but insurance is currently denied (collectively

    with B), referred to as uninsured mortgage loans)C. Mortgage loans are insured but are delinquent for more than 90 and 120 days based on

    management discretion for manufactured housing and single family loans, respectively.

    During FY 2013, the majority of purchased mortgage loans were bought out due to borrowerdelinquency of more than 90 or 120 days depending on loan type (i.e., Single Family or

    Manufactured Housing).

    Ginnie Mae evaluates the collectability of all purchased loans and assesses whether there isevidence of credit deterioration subsequent to the loans origination and it is probable, at

    acquisition, that Ginnie Mae will be unable to collect all contractually required payments

    receivable. Ginnie Mae considers guarantees and insurance from FHA, USDA, VA and PIH indetermining whether it is probable that Ginnie Mae will collect all amounts due according to thecontractual terms.

    For FHA insured loans, Ginnie Mae expects to collect the full amount of the unpaid principalbalance and debenture rate interest (only for months allowed in the insuring agencys timeline),

    when the insurer reimburses Ginnie Mae subsequent to filing a claim. As a result, these loansare accounted for under ASC Subtopic 310-20, Receivables Nonrefundable Fees and Other

    Costs. In accordance with ASC 310-20-30-5, these loans are recorded at the unpaid principalbalance which is the amount Ginnie Mae pays to repurchase these loans. Accordingly, Ginnie

    Mae recognizes interest income on these loans on an accrual basis at the debenture rate for the

    number of months allowed under the insuring agencys timeline. After the allowed timeline,Ginnie Mae considers these loans to be non-performing as the collection of interest is no longerreasonably assured, and places these loans on nonaccrual status. Ginnie Mae recognizes interest

    income for loans on nonaccrual status when cash is received.

    Ginnie Mae separately assesses the collectability of mortgage loans bought out of the defaultedportfolios that are uninsured and loans that are non-FHA insured for which Ginnie Mae only

  • 7/25/2019 Ginnie Mae Annual Report 2013

    53/76

    9

    receives a portion of the outstanding principal balance. If the principal and interest payments arenot fully guaranteed from the insurer (i.e., there is a lack of insurance), or loans are delinquent at

    acquisition, it is probable that Ginnie Mae will be unable to collect all contractually requiredpayments receivable. Accordingly, these loans are considered to be credit impaired and are

    accounted for under ASC Subtopic 310-30, Receivables Loans and Debt Securities Acquiredwith Deteriorated Credit Quality. At the time of acquisition, these loans are recorded at the

    lower of their acquisition cost or present value of expected amounts to be received. As non-performing loans, these loans are placed on nonaccrual status.

    Ginnie Mae has the ability and the intent to hold these acquired loans for the foreseeable future

    or until maturity. Therefore, Ginnie Mae classifies the mortgage loans as held for investment(HFI). The mortgage loans HFI are reported net of allowance for loan losses. Mortgage loans

    HFI also includes mortgage loans that are undergoing the foreclosure process.

    Ginnie Mae performs periodic and systematic reviews of its loan portfolios to identify creditrisks and assess the overall collectability of the portfolios for the estimated uncollectible portion

    of the principal balance of the loan. The allowance for loss on mortgage loans HFI represents

    managements estimate of probable credit losses inherent in Ginnie Maes mortgage loanportfolio. The allowance for loss on mortgage loans HFI is netted against the balance ofmortgage loans HFI. Additionally, Ginnie Mae incorporates the probable recovery amount from

    mortgage insurance (e.g., FHA, USDA, VA, or PIH) based on established insurance rates. Tomake this evaluation, Ginnie Mae reviews the delinquency of mortgage loans, industry

    benchmarks, as well as the established rates of insurance recoveries from insurers.

    Ginnie Mae records a charge-off as a reduction to the allowance for loan losses when losses are

    confirmed through the receipt of assets in full satisfaction of a loan, such as the receipt of claimsproceeds from an insuring agency or underlying collateral upon foreclosure.

    Insurance Claims Receivable: Ginnie Mae records a receivable for insurance claims whichhave been submitted to an insuring agency for claim, but have not been paid as of the end of thereporting period. Because it is a Federal Receivable, Ginnie Mae expects full reimbursement.

    As a result, no allowance is calculated on this receivable.

    Properties Held for Sale: Properties held for sale represent assets that Ginnie Mae has receivedthe title of the underlying collateral (e.g. completely foreclosed upon and repossessed) and

    intends to sell the collateral. For instances in which Ginnie Mae does not convey the property tothe insuring agency, Ginnie Mae holds the title until the property is sold. As the properties are

    available for immediate sale in their current condition and are actively marketed for sale, they arereported as properties held for sale on the Balance Sheets in accordance with ASC Subtopic 360-

    10,Property, Plant, and Equipment Overall. Properties held for sale are initially recorded onthe Balance Sheets at fair value less its estimated cost to sell. The fair value less estimated costto sell on the date of foreclosure is deemed to be the carrying value of the foreclosed asset.

    Subsequent to initial measurement, the properties held for sale are reported at the lower of thecarrying amount or fair value less estimated cost to sell. The properties are appraised by

    independent entities on a regular basis throughout the year. Ginnie Mae expects sale of theproperty to occur prior to one year from the date of the foreclosure. As a result, Ginnie Mae

  • 7/25/2019 Ginnie Mae Annual Report 2013

    54/76

    10

    does not depreciate these assets. Ginnie Mae records an allowance to account for potential salecosts including maintenance and miscellaneous expenses, along with a loss percentage based on

    historical data, which includes declines in the fair value of foreclosed properties.

    Short Sale Claims Receivable: As an alternative to foreclosure, a property may be sold for itsappraised value even if the sale results in a short sale where the proceeds are not sufficient to pay

    off the mortgage. Ginnie Maes MSSs analyze mortgage loans HFI for factors such asdelinquency, appraised value of the loan, and market in locale of the loan to identify loans that

    may be short sale eligible. These transactions are analyzed and approved by Ginnie Maes MBSprogram office.

    For FHA insured loans, for which the underlying property was sold in a short sale, the FHA

    typically pays Ginnie Mae the difference between the proceeds received from the sale and thetotal contractual amount of the mortgage loan and interest at the debenture rate. Hence, Ginnie

    Mae does not incur any losses as a result of the short sale of an FHA insured loan. Ginnie Maerecords a short sale claims receivable while it awaits repayment of this amount from the insurer.

    For short sale claims receivable for which Ginnie Mae believes that collection is not probable,

    Ginnie Mae records an allowance for short sale claims receivable. The allowance for short salesclaims receivable is estimated based on actual and expected recovery experience includingexpected recoveries from FHA, USDA, VA, and PIH. The aggregate of the short sale claims

    receivable and the allowance for short sale claims receivable is the amount that Ginnie Maedetermines to be collectible. Ginnie Mae records a charge-off as a reduction to the allowance for

    loan losses when losses are confirmed through the receipt of claims in full satisfaction of a loanfrom an insuring agency.

    Foreclosed Property: Ginnie Mae records foreclosed property when a MSS receivesmarketable title to a property which has completed the foreclosure process in the respective state.

    The asset is measured as the principal and interest of a loan which is in the process of being

    conveyed to an insuring agency, net of an allowance. These assets are conveyed to theappropriate insuring agency within six months. Foreclosed property has previously been placedon nonaccrual status after the loan was repurchased from a pool. These properties differ from

    properties held for sale because they will be conveyed to an insuring agency, and not sold by theMSS.

    The allowance for foreclosed property is estimated based on actual and expected recovery

    experience including expected recoveries from FHA, USDA, VA, and PIH. The aggregate of theforeclosed property and the allowance for foreclosed property is the amount that Ginnie Mae

    determines to be collectible. Ginnie Mae records a charge-off as a reduction to the allowance forloan losses when losses are confirmed through the receipt of assets in full satisfaction of a loan,

    such as the receipt of claims proceeds from an insuring agency.

    Liability for Loss on MBS Program Guaranty: Liability for loss on MBS program guaranty

    (MBS loss liability) represents managements estimate of future losses to be incurred as a resultof the guaranty provided on MBS portfolios when information indicates a loss is probable and

    the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated.

  • 7/25/2019 Ginnie Mae Annual Report 2013

    55/76

    11

    The MBS loss liability is established to the extent management believes losses due to issuerdefaults are probable and estimable and servicing income and FHA, USDA, VA, and PIH

    insurance proceeds do not fully cover Ginnie Mae servicing and loan acquisition related costs.Ginnie Mae establishes a MBS loss liability through a provision charged to operations when, in

    managements judgment, losses associated with existing defaulted issuers or performing issuerdefaults are probable and estimable. In estimating losses, management utilizes a statistically-

    based model that evaluates numerous factors, including, but not limited to, general and regionaleconomic conditions, mortgage characteristics, and actual and expected future default and loan

    loss experience. Ginnie Mae also analyzes the ability of the borrowers to pay as well as therecovery amount from mortgage insurance when estimating valuations of the mortgage-related

    assets and liabilities.

    Additionally, the Office of Enterprise Risk (ERO) utilizes CorporateWatch to assist in theanalysis of potential defaults. Corpora
