GREENSBORO, N.C.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#loanoriginators–Arch Mortgage Insurance today announced the latest installment of the “Arch MI PolicyCast” video podcast series – an interview with Don Layton, former Freddie Mac CEO. In this episode, hosted by Kirk Willison, Arch MI’s Vice President of Government and Industry Relations, Layton discusses his experience leading Freddie Mac after the global financial crisis, the creation of Freddie Mac’s Credit Risk Transfer (CRT) program and his perspective on the FHFA’s proposed capital rule for the Government Sponsored Enterprises (GSEs).

“With so much activity in the housing policy space, it’s often difficult to stay informed,” said Willison. “My hope is that the discussions we have on the Arch MI PolicyCast are insightful and informative and give the viewer a chance to think about how housing policy reform could affect their businesses.”
Launched in August, the “Arch MI PolicyCast” provides mortgage professionals a new way to stay informed on the issues shaping the future of housing through interviews with some of the most influential industry and policy thought leaders in the nation.
