Executive compensation at Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac
Sierra, Gregory E.; Emmons, William R. (2004)
Corporate governance-and executive-compensation arrangements in particular-should be an important component of the agenda to reform the housing GSEs. The GSEs' safety-and-soundness regulator-who is essentially the debtholders' and taxpayers' representative-must be admitted to the GSEs' boardroom in a way that is atypical of an ordinary publicly held company.

Professional abitrageurs must convince wealthy but uninformed investors to entrust ...

The foreclosure crisis in 2008: predatory lending or household overreaching?
Fogel, Kathy; Yeager, Timothy J.; Ma, Liping; Lee, Wayne Y.; Emmons, William R.; Rorie, Deena (2011-07)
At least early in the financial crisis, the high rate of foreclosures seemed to be due more to households' overreaching than to predatory lending. A disproportionate number of those being foreclosed on were well-educated, well-off and relatively young people.
