Fairholme’s Motion (Doc. 1565601), at page 13, says:
“Treasury’s administrative record fails to reveal that Treasury was in possession of newer projections indicating that the Net Worth Sweep was
not necessary to prevent the Companies from running through the available Treasury funding commitment.”
Fairholme’s Reply (Doc. 1572909), at page 10, says:
‘[I]n adopting the Net Worth Sweep, Defendants relied on financial projections based on 11 month old data, and those projections were by then known to be inaccurate and unreliable.’ “ |

The FHFA Letters Decoded – Howard on Mortgage Finance
“In my view there is a simple explanation for both the sudden flurry and perplexing content of this correspondence with FHFA. Recent developments in the court cases have led participants in the reform debate to realize that a status quo they had taken for granted and hoped would continue indefinitely—Treasury’s dominance of FHFA, and FHFA’s consequent management of Fannie and Freddie not to conserve their assets but to prepare them ultimately to be wound down—may not be sustainable, and the letter writers believe it is prudent to begin to try to influence a “potentially independent” Director to take actions that still would advance their interests.” |
