The requirement is here.
Are you ready?
FHLMC Bulletin 2025-16 (1302.2 & 1302.8) became effective 3/3/26. Our assessment helps organizations evaluate internal and vendor readiness using a practical framework based on NIST Risk Management Framework (RMF), ISO 42001, and financial services best practices.
REGULATORY EXPOSURE
Non-compliance can create direct risk for your seller/servicer status and increases pressure to substantiate governance with clear evidence.
AUDIT VULNERABILITY
Without model inventories and audit trails, organizations create avoidable audit exposure and make review readiness harder to demonstrate.
HIDDEN VENDOR RISK
If a third-party uses AI without documented oversight, your organization may inherit risk that is harder to detect, document, and defend later.
This assessment is your diagnostic — identify gaps, define action, and strengthen readiness before issues become findings.
The assessment delivers value at each stage
Regardless of where you are in your AI journey, this assessment is designed to help you verify alignment and identify gaps to comply with Freddie Mac Bulletin 2025-16.
