This week’s SFA Research Corner takes a look at recent Biden administration executive orders, including the extension of payment moratoriums on federally owned student loans for nine months. This coincided with the Federal Housing Finance Agency’s announcement to extend Freddie Mac’s and Fannie Mae’s moratoriums on single-family foreclosures and real estate owned (REO) evictions until February 28, 2021. SFA Research expects both developments to have a positive impact on credit and consumer-related securitization overall and will also begin tracking the volume of securitized transactions indexed to SOFR.
