Briefing
Bank Liquidity and Financing of Nonbank Mortgage Companies

Nonbank mortgage companies (NMCs) are directly funded by banks and have significantly expanded their shares of the residential mortgage market.Bank liquidity helps drive the warehouse credit market for NMCs financing.We examine the COVID-19 shock and the subsequent boom in the mortgage market and find that banks with ex-ante higher liquidity expanded less aggressively in supplying credit to NMCs. This lower credit expansion is stronger for smaller NMCs with fewer banking relationships.

Briefing
Banks' Credit Lines to Nonbank Mortgage Companies and Downstream Mortgage Originations

We study the downstream mortgage origination activity of banks with credit ties with nonbank mortgage companies (NMCs). We show that banks continued to compete with NMCs in the downstream mortgage origination market, despite financing competing NMCs.NMC activities remain tight to the originate-to-distribute business model, as most of the mortgages were delivered to government-sponsored enterprises, such as Fannie Mae.Their lower on-balance sheet exposure to the mortgage market reduced their interest rate risk exposure, which drove risk during the interest rate hiking period.
