Budgetary Impact and Subsidy Costs of the Federal Reserve¿s Actions During the Financial Crisis


Book Description

Over the past several years, the nation has experienced its most severe financial crisis since the Great Depression. In response, policymakers undertook a series of extraordinary actions to stabilize financial markets and institutions. The Federal Reserve System (FR) used its policy tools to reduce short-term interest rates and increase the avail. of funds to banks, and it created a variety of non-traditional credit programs to help restore liquidity and confidence to the financial sector. This study describes the various actions by the FR to stabilize the financial markets and how those actions will affect the fed. budget in coming years. Also presents estimates of the risk-adjusted subsidies that the FR provided to financial institutions through its emergency programs.

Budgetary Impact of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac


Book Description

This is a print on demand edition of a hard to find publication. Provides an estimate of the budgetary impact of the activities of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (two gov¿t.-sponsored enterprises, or GSEs, that provide credit guarantees for more than half of the residential mortgages in the U.S.). This report also discusses alternative budgetary treatments for the GSEs, describes the usefulness of alternative treatments, and explains the rationale for the use of fair-value subsidy estimates for the GSEs in its baseline budget projections. Those fair-value estimates deviate from FCRA-based estimates in an important way: By incorporating a market-based risk premium associated with the GSEs¿ credit guarantees, they reflect the fact that the government¿s assumption of financial risk is costly to taxpayers.

We print the paperback book so you don't have to. First you gotta find a good clean (legible) copy and make sure it's the latest version (not always easy). Some documents found on the web are missing some pages or the image quality is so poor, they are difficult to read. If you find a good copy, you could print it using a network printer you share with 100 other people (typically its either out of paper or toner). If it's just a 10-page document, no problem, but if it's 250-pages, you will need to punch 3 holes in all those pages and put it in a 3-ring binder. Takes at least an hour. It's much more cost-effective to just order the bound paperback from Amazon.com This book includes original commentary which is copyright material. Note that government documents are in the public domain. We print these paperbacks as a service so you don't have to. The books are compact, tightly-bound paperback, full-size (8 1/2 by 11 inches), with large text and glossy covers. 4th Watch Publishing Co. is a HUBZONE SDVOSB. https: //usgovpub.com







Federal Debt and Interest Costs


Book Description

Recently, the federal gov't. has been recording the largest budget deficits, as a share of gross domestic product (GDP), since the end of World War II. As a result of those deficits, the amount of federal debt held by the public has soared surpassing $9 trillion at the end of fiscal year 2010 and equal to 62 percent of GDP. The interest the government pays on that debt is currently low by historical standards as a percentage of GDP but is expected to grow rapidly over the next several years as interest rates rise. This study provides background material on federal debt and interest costs. Contents: Debt Held by the Public; Other Measures of Federal Debt; Interest Payments and Receipts. Charts and tables. This is a print on demand publication.
