Description

Arlington Asset Investment Corp. engages in the acquisition and holding a portfolio of residential mortgage-backed securities. The company is headquartered in Mc Lean, Virginia. The firm also invests in other asset classes that its management team believes may offer attractive risk-adjusted returns, such as real estate assets or investments outside the real estate or mortgage asset classes. The Company’s investment capital is allocated between agency mortgage-backed securities (MBS), mortgage credit investments, and mortgage servicing right-related assets. Its agency MBS consists of residential mortgage pass-through certificates for which the principal and interest payments are guaranteed by either a United States government-sponsored enterprise, such as the Federal National Mortgage Association and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation. Its mortgage credit investments include investments in mortgage loans secured by either residential or commercial real property or MBS collateralized by residential or commercial mortgage loans.
