What this page covers

Periodic returns the regulated entities file with FHFA: the FHLBank System's combined financial reports, filed by the Office of Finance; Fannie Mae's and Freddie Mac's quarterly capital reports under the Enterprise Regulatory Capital Framework; their annual Dodd-Frank Act stress test report, which no longer covers the FHLBanks; their quarterly and annual Mortgage Reports and Annual Housing Activities Report on housing goals; and their Duty to Serve Underserved Markets Plan reports. Also covered: the Community Support Statement, a biennial return filed directly with FHFA not by a regulated entity itself but by each FHLBank member bank, thrift, credit union or community development financial institution, under FHFA's own Community Support Program regulation. Left out: FHFA's own examination reports and advisory bulletins, which FHFA issues to the regulated entities rather than the other way round; the Suspended Counterparty Program, which is a list FHFA publishes rather than a firm filing; and one-off filings such as an FHLBank membership application or capital plan.

How firms file

The library records no filing system for the FHFA. Each return's page gives its format and how it is sent, where the regulator says.

Reuse terms for the FHFA's documents

FHFA Website Privacy Policy, checked 13 November 2026. In the FHFA's words:

Generally, information and materials produced by Federal agencies, including FHFA, are in the public domain and may be copied and distributed without permission.

Can others share copies?: Allowed.
Conditions: This excludes the FHFA seal, other federal agency seals, and any mark carrying the ® symbol. Some site content is third-party material, not in the public domain, and is not relied on here. FHFA's name or logo (for example "Source: FHFA®") may be used to identify the source of content.
What the library does: Links each document on the regulator's own site, with its size and SHA-256 fingerprint so a change can be spotted. Documents are never hosted on line4.ai.

What could not be verified

Said plainly, so nobody relies on a fact the sources do not give.

fhfa.gov's internal site search is disallowed by its own robots.txt (Disallow: /search/), so this round relied on following fhfa.gov's own navigation links rather than searching the site; a further periodic FHFA return this approach missed cannot be ruled out.
No FHFA.gov page read this round names a specific electronic filing system or portal for the combined financial report, the Enterprise capital report, DFAST, the Mortgage Report, the AHAR, the Duty to Serve reports or the Community Support Statement, so each return's formats field records what the regulation itself says (a report in the form FHFA specifies) rather than a named system.
Whether any individual FHLBank files a report of financial condition with FHFA beyond the System-wide combined financial report the Office of Finance files under 12 CFR 1273.6 was not confirmed from a page read this round.
The FHLBanks' own capital structure and capital plans (12 CFR parts such as 1277) were not researched this round, since they are approved once rather than filed as a recurring periodic return.
Whether U.S. FinTech, the Enterprises' joint venture that FHFA also supervises, files any distinct periodic return of its own was not confirmed from a page read this round.
