Annaly invests in and finances housing across the country, which strengthens the long-term growth of the economy and supports the vitality of local communities.

Our Investments

Through our diversified investment strategies, we supply permanent capital to the residential mortgage finance market.

Support for American Housing

Housing is a bedrock of economic health for individuals, communities and the macroeconomy.

Annaly invests in residential housing in Agency mortgage-backed securities, mortgage servicing rights, non-Agency residential credit and commercial mortgage-backed securities. We have helped finance the housing sector since our inception in 1996.

Recently, Annaly hosted a virtual fireside chat with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to discuss the GSEs’ mission and the impact of their sustainability initiatives on U.S. homeownership.

Support for Economic Opportunity Across Communities

The vitality of local communities drives a strong U.S. economy.

Annaly contributes to local economic and community development through joint ventures and direct portfolio investments that support the comprehensive needs of communities, including affordable housing, education, healthcare and retail grocery in low-income and low-access areas. These under-invested segments of the economy are critical building blocks of household vitality, economic mobility and community development.

Social Impact Joint Venture

Annaly has financed more than 25 community development projects in rural and urban communities across the country through a joint venture partnership with Capital Impact Partners (“Capital Impact”), a national community development financial institution. Annaly's investment supports affordable housing, community development centers, eldercare residences, grocery stores and healthy food production facilities, charter schools and mixed use developments to stimulate local economies.(2)
