Making Mortgages More Accessible: How Fannie Mae Manages Financial Risk in the U.S. Housing Market with Strategy Solutions

The Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae) facilitates access to mortgage credit in the U.S. housing market. For nearly 90 years, it has been a reliable source of affordable mortgage financing, supporting homebuyers and renters nationwide.

Fannie Mae uses trusted, unified insights to analyze the U.S. housing market and delivers programs, products, and tools that make housing more affordable, accessible, and efficient—for everyone.

Real-Time Insights for Financial Risk Management

Fannie Mae ran daily forecasting models to assess interest-rate, pricing, and liquidity risk, but the resulting reports lived across multiple applications.

Risk teams pulled data into spreadsheets and macros to collate and reconcile results—spending hours on manual work and leaving less time for strategic decisions.

To support timely risk decisions and manage cash-flow, Fannie Mae sought real-time, governed data analytics in one place. The team partnered with Strategy to create a centralized hub that consolidated and unified its data, empowering access to financial-risk analytics from multiple applications.

With Strategy as its enterprise analytics engine, Fannie Mae launched a custom reporting hub, leveraging the semantic layer to standardize data logic across applications.

Each report was built on consistent, governed definitions within a shared environment. Role-based access control further strengthened governance, giving the right teams access to the right data without risking cross-application interference.

Fannie Mae’s custom reporting hub centralized risk analytics into a single reporting layer, aligning logic across applications and reducing fragmentation—while APIs delivered real-time data access.

“With Strategy, we're not hampered by how much data we process. Its analytics engine helps us decipher vast amounts of information.”

By exposing datasets through REST APIs, Fannie Mae delivered Analytics-as-a-Product to embed in downstream applications—eliminating the need for manual collation or delayed data lake processes. This supported its broader data mesh strategy and enabled real-time, domain-owned insights.

The result: cleaner insights, faster decisions, and a real-time view of risk metrics in one governed ecosystem. Powered by Strategy solutions, the reporting hub gave Fannie Mae trusted, real-time analytics to support confident risk management at scale—ensuring it can continue delivering liquidity and stability to the U.S. housing market.

“Fannie Mae impacts three-fourths of the mortgage industry, so managing our risks properly is critical. Strategy enables us to do that.”
