Vol. 16 No. 2 April 27,1987 Des Moines, Iowa FCS Seeks Secondary Market Control B y B E N H A L L E R , JR. Publisher FFORTS by the banking indus try and life insurance companies to arrive at a workable plan for de veloping a national secondary mar ket for ag real estate loans were dealt a severe setback when the Farm Credit System finally threw its proposal on the table last week. The American Bankers Association, the Independent Bankers Associa tion of America and life company representatives had met with FCS representatives for the past several months trying to structure a suit able framework within which ag reed estate loans could be funneled, pooled and securitized through FCS’ present funding mechanism—The Farm Credit System Funding Corp. of New York. The aim of this cooperative ven ture was to avoid the need for estab lishing another quasi public/private organization to deal with such a secondary market, and to use in stead that facility established by FCS and to assure that private lend ers were not trying to exclude FCS. Throughout this series of meetings, FCS had no firm proposal of its own. However, last week FCS laid a pro posal on the table totally counter to the goals and good faith proposals E offered earlier by the other partici pants. FCS’ proposal would basically place FCS in charge of the complete game, and mandate that any other players would have to be certified and supervised by FCS under its rules and with a board of directors controlled by FCS. In essence, the FCS proposal would provide it a fully-integrated govemment/private corporation with new powers autho rizing it to sell, purchase and service such securities under its own rules. The FCS board would establish the conditions and procedures by which non-system lenders could be in volved. Since the Administration, and probably the Congress, is not inter ested in chartering any new quasi public bodies, the banking and life insurance industries sought a Ginnie Mae type of approach with low overhead and few employees to have a streamlined organization. By con trast, the FCS proposal would create a much larger new organization of the Fannie Mae type. In addition, it proposes a nine-member board made up of six from the FCS and three non-member system directors. Further, the six FCS directors would elect the three interim non system directors, and then the FCS controlled board would eventually decide when the other players in the game had enough knowledge to elect their own three representatives! By contrast, the IB A A proposal suggests a nine-member b oard three from FCS, three from other lenders, and three from the public sector. The A B A proposal would have a 15-member board—six appointed by the shareholders from among the originators and poolers of the loans and securities, six appointed by the FCS and three appointed by the President of the United States. The major question is, who will control the structure? FCS wants near total control. While the proposal discussed for several months has centered on securitization of ag real estate loans, FCS’ proposal would expand this by allowing FCS to include its operat ing loans and housing loans (the lat ter being 8% of FCS’ portfolio) through these securitized loans. The FCS proposal went to A B A the IB A A and life company repre sentatives, but not to the Farm Credit Administration, which now supervises the FCS. The FCS propo sal has been termed unacceptable by the other players and will be dis cussed late this week. It is possible that Sen. Boren (D., Okla.) could bring up this subject as part of the subcommittee on ag credit, of which he is chairman, figuring this would be a starting point for hammering out a suitable agreement on such a secondary mar ket concept. □ A fter m ore than 120 years o f providing correspondent banking services to the M idw est, you can say we’ve had a chance to polish our trade.
