Securitization Programs

Supporting Investors and Rural Lenders

For investors, our AMBS program offers a portfolio diversification option that’s backed by and in support of the success of U.S. agricultural land. Farmer Mac AMBS provide the potential for attractive returns for both interest rates and credit investors. Farmer Mac’s guarantee provides a GSE-backed security with unique payment characteristics compared to other GSE-backed securities, while unguaranteed securities benefit from Farmer Mac’s underwriting experience and provide competitive returns.

For lending institutions, the AMBS structure allows lenders to move credit risk associated with underlying debt—and capital required to post against it—off their balance sheets. Institutions can then pass on the savings from that relief to rural borrowers in the form of lower borrowing costs.
