Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG)

We’re dedicated to creating positive environmental, social, and economic outcomes for families and communities through responsible mortgage finance.

Safe, affordable housing is at the foundation of economic well-being for individuals and families — and at the center of all healthy, vibrant communities. Fannie Mae’s enduring mission is a cornerstone of that foundation. Chartered by the U.S. Congress to deliver liquidity, affordability, and stability to the U.S. residential mortgage market and promote fair access to mortgage credit, our mission demands that we address complex environmental, social, and governance (ESG) challenges.

We are committed to driving positive impact, building a stronger, safer, and resilient housing finance system that creates affordable, sustainable housing opportunities for homebuyers and renters across the country.
