What MBB Actually Does MBB provides exposure to agency mortgage-backed securities, the bonds backed by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and Ginnie Mae. These aren't the risky subprime mortgages from 2008. They carry implicit or explicit government guarantees, eliminating credit risk. What remains is interest rate sensitivity and prepayment risk.
