Statement of Charles E. Haldeman, Jr., Freddie Mac Chief Executive Officer, on Loan Repurchase Agreement With Bank of America

McLean, VA – January 4, 2011 – (RealEstateRama) — I’m pleased to reach this agreement with Bank of America and believe it is in all parties’ best interests. Since entering federal conservatorship, Freddie Mac has focused sharply on being a responsible steward of taxpayer funds, and we have worked closely with our lender partners to ensure that standards for loan underwriting are vigorously maintained. Bank of America has long been one of Freddie Mac’s largest and most important business partners and we look forward to continuing our work together to provide mortgage funding for America’s families.
