The Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA) has announced the creation of the Task Force for a Future Secondary Mortgage Market, created with the objective of developing a proposal that will address the future of the secondary mortgage market, and in particular, an end-state model that can also fulfill an affordable housing/duty to serve mission. The Task Force anticipates completing this proposal by the end of the year.
