For this episode, host Al Yoon chats with Jim Parrott, a nonresident fellow at the Urban Institute and co-owner of Parrott Ryan Advisors, which counsels financial institutions on primary and secondary mortgage market matters. Parrott is critical of the FHFA’s approach to mortgage finance including how its proposed capital rule wrongly approaches the GSEs as if they were banks and crushes the economics of one of their primary risk management tools, credit risk transfer securities.
