WASHINGTON, DC – Fannie Mae (FNMA/OTCQB) priced its third Green Multifamily DUS® REMIC in 2019 totaling $1.1 billion under its Fannie Mae Guaranteed Multifamily Structures (Fannie Mae GeMS) program on October 17, 2019. FNA 2019-M22 marks the ninth Fannie Mae GeMS issuance of 2019.

"The M22 marks Fannie Mae's largest single Green GeMS deal to date at $1.1 billion, bringing our total structured Green REMIC issuance to $9 billion and further supporting our commitment to offering socially responsible investment opportunities," said Dan Dresser, Vice President Capital Markets & Pricing. "The deal reflects the geographical diversity of our Green Financing Program with 15 states represented across the 48 underlying securities. We received solid interest in a busy week with competing transactions – a nice start to the fourth quarter."

Fannie Mae’s Multifamily Green Financing Business provides financing through several different Green product offerings, encouraging apartment building owners to make energy and water savings improvements to their properties. In addition, the Fannie Mae Green Financing Business provides financing to properties holding a third-party, Fannie Mae-approved, Green Building Certification.
