Our Leadership

A Message From Richard F. Syron, Freddie Mac's Chairman and CEO

As a government-sponsored enterprise with an important public mission to make housing finance more accessible and affordable, Freddie Mac is unique. We have special responsibilities to the American people. It's incumbent upon us to carry out these responsibilities to the best of our abilities.

Freddie Mac plays a critical role in financing homes for America's families and providing strength and resiliency to America's economy. I aspire to no greater legacy than to build public trust in an institution chartered by Congress to ensure the stability, liquidity and accessibility of the nation's mortgage markets.
