If Garrett\u2019s proposed legislation succeeds in becoming part of U.S. law,<\/span><\/strong> how competitive could covered bonds become<\/span><\/strong> as a source of real estate funding? What is the<\/span><\/strong> outlook for covered bonds vis-\u00e0-vis MBS<\/span><\/strong> from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac? What is the potential for<\/span><\/strong> financing other types of debt<\/span><\/strong> \u2014 such as auto or small business loans \u2014 with covered bonds? Exactly how would the amendment<\/span><\/strong> increase the cost efficiency<\/span><\/strong> of covered bond funding?<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n
