Have the GSE affordable goals increased the supply of mortgage credit?
Article Abstract:
A mortgage model is developed to analyze whether Government Sponsored Enterprises (GSEs) purchase activity leads to a substitution effect that results in greater capital flowing to targeted areas. The analysis suggest that effect results primarily from the mortgage activity in 1998 and a significantly positive relationship between the level of mortgage activity and the purchase of seasoned loans by the GSEs is discovered.

GSE impact on rural mortgage markets
Article Abstract:
A comparison between rural mortgage markets and urban mortgage markets is done to analyze whether the two can be integrated into a larger national mortgage market. It is observed that government-sponsored enterprises in rural regions give a greater access to credit to rural conforming mortgage borrowers. The study also analyses the risks associated with the two markets.
