Which?

Yeti — 7/14/2008 3:35:06 PM (archived)

Fannie and Freddie have not, as organizations, had access to the Fed Reserve discount loan to my knowledge. The fed only broadened this to investment banks within the las year, and Fannie and Freddie recently.

If I'm wrong, please source and I'll be happy to learn otherwise.
