"The Congressional Budget Office estimates that Fanny and Freddy would need anywhere between 267 and 534 billion in capital reserves to go private without causing any disruption to the mortgage market Right now their capital reserves are believed to be somewhere around 150 billion Given that Fanny and Freddy's combined capital reserves are growing at a rate of roughly 20 to 25 billion per year this means that it will be at least another 5 years before either entity is ready to be privatized And if we assume the upper capital reserve range of $534 billion that timeline increases to 15 years"
