## Abstract

The Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight (OFHEO) is issuing a final rule to set forth the procedures by which OFHEO administers the Federal Housing Enterprises Financial Safety and Soundness Act of 1992, under which OFHEO takes prompt corrective action in response to specified declines in the capital levels of the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac) (collectively, the Enterprises). The rule also implements a system of prompt supervisory responses to be taken whenever developments internal or external to an Enterprise, as identified by the agency on a case-by-case basis, may warrant special supervisory review by OFHEO. The initiation of a special supervisory review pursuant to such a procedure does not of itself indicate that an Enterprise is in an unsound condition; rather, it means only that OFHEO is undertaking a focused inquiry to ascertain the likely consequences of a particular development or developments for the Enterprise.
