A. Overview of Information Collection

    Title of Proposal: Ginnie Mae Multiclass Securities Program 
Documents. (Forms and Electronic Data Submissions).
    OMB Control Number, if applicable: 2503-0030.
    Type of Information Collection: Extension of a currently approved.
    Description of the need for the information and proposed use: This 
information collection is required in connection with the operation of 
the Ginnie Mae Multiclass Securities program. Ginnie Mae's authority to 
guarantee multiclass instruments is contained in 306(g)(1) of the 
National Housing Act (``NHA'') (12 U.S.C. 1721(g)(1)), which authorizes 
Ginnie Mae to guarantee ``securities * * * based on or backed by a 
trust or pool composed of mortgages. * * *'' Multiclass securities are 
backed by Ginnie Mae securities, which are backed by government insured 
or guaranteed mortgages. Ginnie Mae's authority to operate a Multiclass 
Securities program is recognized in Section 3004 of the Omnibus Budget 
Reconciliation Act of 1993 (``OBRA''), which amended 306(g)(3) of the 
NHA (12 U.S.C. 1271(g)(3)) to provide Ginnie Mae with greater 
flexibility for the Multiclass Securities program regarding fee 
structure, contracting, industry consultation, and program 
implementation. Congress annually sets

[[Page 40898]]

Ginnie Mae's commitment authority to guarantee mortgage-backed 
(``MBS'') pursuant to 306(G)(2) of the NHA (12 U.S.C. 1271(g)(2)). 
Since the multiclass are backed by Ginnie Mae Single Class MBS, Ginnie 
Mae has already guaranteed the collateral for the multiclass 
instruments.
    The Ginnie Mae Multiclass Securities Program consists of Ginnie Mae 
Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduit (``REMIC'') securities, 
Stripped Mortgage-Backed Securities (``SMBS''), and Platinum 
securities. The Multiclass Securities program provides an important 
adjunct to Ginnie Mae's secondary mortgage market activities, allowing 
the private sector to combine and restructure cash flows from Ginnie 
Mae Single Class MBS into securities that meet unique investor 
requirements in connection with yield, maturity, and call-option 
protection. The intent of the Multiclass Securities program is to 
increase liquidity in the secondary mortgage market and to attract new 
sources of capital for federally insured or guaranteed loans. Under 
this program, Ginnie Mae guarantees, with the full faith and credit of 
the United States, the timely payment of principal and interest on 
Ginnie Mae REMIC, SMBS and Platinum securities.
    Agency form numbers, if applicable: Not applicable.
    Members of affected public: For-profit business (mortgage 
companies, thrifts, savings & loans, etc.).
