Guaranteed Mortgage Certificates

    0.01 sec.
Guaranteed Mortgage Certificates (GMC)
First issued by Freddie Mac in 1975, G.M.C.s, like PCs, represent undivided interest in specified conventional whole loans and participations previously purchased by Freddie Mac.

Guaranteed Mortgage Certificates
A mortgage-backed security issued by Freddie Mac. As with all mortgage-backed securities, the coupons on guaranteed mortgage certificates are paid out of the principal and interest on a pool of mortgages underlying the securities. However, GMCs have a guaranteed average life, meaning that Freddie Mac protects the investor from prepayment risk buy guaranteeing principal and interest payments in the event that too many mortgage holders pay back their loans early, depriving the pool of interest it otherwise would have received. See also: collateralized mortgage obligation.
