The Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) today released its annual Performance and Accountability Report, which details FHFA’s activities as regulator of the Federal Home Loan Bank System and as regulator and conservator of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac during fiscal year 2023.
For the fifteenth consecutive year, FHFA received an unmodified audit opinion on its FY 2023 financial statements from the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO). GAO also found no instances of reportable noncompliance with the applicable laws and regulations it tested.

GAO performs an independent audit of FHFA’s consolidated and combined financial statements in accordance with the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008.
