Where's AIG and the derivative insurance element of the fraud?
That was a significant factor in manufacturing greater "Transactional distance".
Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are issuers for most conforming mortgages. Investment banks primarily issue securities backed by subprime mortgages and other non-conforming mortgages.94Notably, investment banks that issue mortgage-backed securities do not sample loans or properties to verify the facts; they merely accept the paper offered to them by originators.95
Investors thought the non-conforming A$$Paper they were buying was "insured"... but in the end, it wasn't - except by tax payers who got left holding the "bail-out" bag.
