She was the first woman and woman of color to hold the position. She also served as a senior advisor on housing and finance policy to former HUD Secretary Marcia Fudge. Throughout her impressive career, Ms. McCargo has pioneered and championed policies and programs to advance fair housing and fair lending principles including leading groundbreaking research, while at the Urban Institute, on solutions for expanding access to credit for underserved groups, broadening support for small dollar mortgages, and dismantling barriers to the provisioning of fair and affordable housing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"content-wrap-item post__paragraph\">Ms. McCargo takes the helm of the Bank on the heels of the Federal Housing Finance Agency\u2019s (FHFA) examination of almost 100 years of operation for the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLBank) System writ large. FHFA\u2019s report provided a comprehensive review of the nation\u2019s FHLBanks and a discussion of how the system can best fulfill its mission of 1) providing stable and reliable liquidity to member institutions; and 2) supporting housing and community development. The report lifts up a number of recommendations for reforming the FHLBank System, including <a href=\"https:\/\/nationalfairhousing.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/2022-10-31_NFHA-et-al-Comment-Letter-to-FHFA-re-FHLBs_FINAL.pdf\">proposals championed by NFHA<\/a>. Importantly, FHFA recommended the Federal Home Loan Banks deepen and expand mission-oriented programs to support sustainable housing finance and community development products that lack a reliable secondary market outlet. FHFA also supported increasing the 10 percent minimum contribution requirement for the FHLBanks\u2019 Affordable Housing Programs. While the current statute establishes the 10 percent minimum contribution, FHLBanks are able to voluntarily increase their contributions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"content-wrap-item post__paragraph\">The FHLBanks are an important and integral component of the U.S. housing finance market. They play a significant role in helping address America\u2019s fair and affordable housing crisis. NFHA looks forward to continued work with the San Francisco FHLBank as well as other Banks in the FHLBank system to more broadly expand access to sustainable credit to underserved groups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"content-wrap-item post__paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"content-wrap-item post__heading post__heading-undefined wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">###<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"content-wrap-item post__paragraph\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/nationalfairhousing.org\/\">National Fair Housing Alliance<\/a> (NFHA) is the country\u2019s only national civil rights organization dedicated solely to eliminating all forms of housing and lending discrimination and ensuring equal opportunities for all people.
