MFA Statement in Reponse to the FSOC Meeting

Washington, DC – MFA President and CEO Bryan Corbett issued the following statement in response to today’s Financial Stability Oversight Council meeting:

“Alternative asset managers do not pose a systemic risk and are already subject to the SEC’s robust regulatory regime. MFA is carefully reviewing the proposed analytic framework and entity designation process laid out today to make sure it accurately addresses systemic risk and does not pull in non-systemically risky entities.”
