Public-Private Risk Sharing in Federal Credit Programs

Congressional Budget Office

No 59408, Reports from Congressional Budget Office

Abstract: To help make credit more available and affordable for borrowers, the federal government provides assistance in the form of loans and loan guarantees. Such credit assistance—which is projected to consist of $228 billion in new direct loans and $1.6 trillion in new loan guarantees in 2025, at an estimated cost of $2 billion—exposes the federal government to financial risk. In some cases, the gov¬ernment shares that risk with private lenders or investors.
