Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corp., better known as Freddie Mac, is a mortgage finance company that helps keep home loans flowing in the U.S. housing market. It does not usually make loans directly to homebuyers. Instead, it buys mortgages from lenders, pools them into mortgage-backed securities, and guarantees those securities for investors.
Its main customers are mortgage lenders, banks, and investors in home-loan securities. Lenders use Freddie Mac to free up capital so they can keep making new mortgages. Investors buy the securities for a stream of payments backed by home loans, while Freddie Mac earns money from guarantee fees, investment income, and other mortgage-related service fees.
Freddie Mac sits in the middle of the housing finance system, connecting lenders, borrowers, and capital markets. That role makes its business different from a normal bank: it does not mainly earn money by taking deposits and making loans one by one, but by packaging, guaranteeing, and supporting mortgage funding for the market.
