Title: Uniform Mortgage-Backed Security 
Abstract:

The rule improves the liquidity of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (the Enterprises) to-be-announced eligible mortgage-backed securities (TBA-eligible MBS) by requiring the Enterprises to maintain policies that promote aligned investor cash flows on both current TBA-eligible MBS, and, upon its implementation, the Uniform Mortgage-Backed Security (UMBS), a common, fungible MBS that will be eligible for trading in the TBA market for fixed-rate mortgage loans backed by 1-4 unit (single-family) properties.
