Washington, D.C. – In the latest Ginnie Mae Capital Markets Live podcast episode, Ginnie Mae Principal Executive Vice President Sam Valverde and Ginnie Mae Office of Capital Markets Director Richard Perrelli release new details on the corporation’s ongoing strategy to enhance environmental, social and governance (ESG) disclosure data for its mortgage-backed securities (MBS), underscoring Ginnie Mae’s long-standing commitment to financing affordable and sustainable housing for underserved and low-income communities. Mr. Valverde and Mr. Perrelli highlight Ginnie Mae’s social impact mission and the ways in which recently released additional disclosure increases visibility of social impact of Ginnie Mae MBS for domestic and international investors with ESG portfolio strategies. “There is undeniably strong interest among domestic and international investors for assets that use verifiable data to demonstrate real ESG impact,” said Valverde. “Since last year, Ginnie Mae has taken steps to enhance MBS disclosure to meet this demand by demonstrating the inherently social nature of an investment in our securities — that's really the theme for our ESG program.” The Ginnie Mae Capital Markets Live podcast can be heard here.
