FS Credit Opportunities Corp. v. Saba Capital Master Fund
Court: U.S. Supreme Court Amicus Issue: Whether Section 47(b) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 provides for a private…
SIFMA and 11 associations* provide comments to the US Congress strongly opposing proposals being consider by some U.S. municipalities to use a municipality’s eminent domain power to acquire performing but underwater mortgage loans held by private-label mortgage-backed securities (PLS) and then refinance the loans through programs administered by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA). While the groups support a broad range of programs to assist struggling homeowners and the communities in which they reside, they are firm in our belief that using the power of eminent domain in this manner would harm our nation’s housing markets and the very communities it is intended to help.
