Fannie Mae Prices Its First Green REMIC Tranches as Part of $1.0 Billion Multifamily DUS REMIC (FNA 2017-M2) Under Its GeMS Program

WASHINGTON, Feb. 15. 2017

"This deal is another first for the Fannie Mae Multifamily Platform. Fannie Mae has set the standard for multifamily credit quality and risk sharing for almost 30 years. Now we're excited to offer the first Green Agency CMBS deal," said Josh Seiff, Fannie Mae's Vice President of Capital Markets and Trading. "We had a number of new investors who focus on green and socially responsible investing participate in this deal. We're proud to be able to lead the way with a Multifamily mortgage product that truly benefits communities as well as borrowers, lenders, and investors."

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. Fannie Mae introduced the Green MBS product to the market in 2012 and has grown the book of business each year, culminating in the issuance of over $3.5 billion in 2016.

"The M2 represents one more step in Fannie Mae's journey to realize social, environmental, and financial benefits through its innovative financial tools and business strategy," said Chrissa Pagitsas, Director, Multifamily Green Financing Business. "The M2 A1 and A2 tranches included loans secured by collateral that achieved a Green Building Certification such as LEED, ENERGY STAR^®, or Green Globes, or was targeting a 20 percent or greater reduction in energy or water consumption. The end result will be better quality housing with a lower environmental impact and positive cash flows."
