The Government National Mortgage Association, more commonly known as GNMA and Ginnie Mae, is a government-owned corporation overseen by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.

Similar to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the investment income provides funding that may then be lent to eligible borrowers by lenders.
