其次,建立完美風險管理策略。在利率市場化和資產證券化的背景下,住房金融事業部也將逐步開展衍生品交易業務,建議采用完美風險管理策略管理利率風險、違約風險和預付風險:(1)使用可贖回債券與利率互換期權對沖違約風險和預付風險。有漏洞的風險管理策略是導致政府贊助企業在危機中巨額虧損的原因,而非其對金融工具的使用。住房金融事業部應充分利用金融工具的對沖功能降低風險暴露。(2)要求衍生品合約交易對手提供抵押品。盡管交易對手違約出現的可能性較低,但基于美國住房政府贊助企業的經驗,住房金融事業部應為可能出現的金融市場波動做好準備。(3)在經濟環境穩定的時期尋求備選的衍生品交易對手。在危機出現時,住房金融事業部可與事先協商好的衍生品交易對手以約定的價格簽訂新的衍生品合約,降低交易對手更換風險,及時調整衍生品頭寸。(4)謹慎管理生息資產與付息負債的久期缺口。考慮到住房金融事業部將主要向投資者發行長期的住房金融債,其久期缺口管理應比政府贊助企業更易管理。(5)實施完美對沖策略將利率風險最小化。由于住房金融事業部由政府支持,其有責任保護納稅人的利益。可能損失最小化的途徑之一就是盡可能降低其自身的風險暴露。
第三,主動運用市場化手段。國家開發銀行的成功在很大程度上得益于與傳統政策性銀行不同的經營方式,在開發性金融的框架下,實施市場化、商業化的經營管理模式。政策性住房金融業務要持續發展,也需要防范信貸風險、保證貸款的回收和必要的收益。例如,住房金融事業部可以考慮發行抵押貸款證券來提高其資金周轉率,向市場轉移利率風險與預付風險。盡管中國抵押貸款市場仍不成熟,但住房金融事業部可以擔負起主導或促進建立中國抵押貸款證券一級市場與二級市場發展的職能。

Research on the Risk Accumulation of the US Housing Financial Market
Guo Mingshe Guo Hongyu
Abstract: In this paper, we conducted both qualitative and quantitative analysis of the risk management tools and practices of the US housing GSEs (government-sponsored enterprises). It was found that the reasons for the risk accumulation of the GSEs in the subprime mortgage crisis are: (1) to reduce costs when using the risk management tools, the GSEs adopted the imperfect hedging strategy; (2) to pursue high returns, they took advantage of their relatively lower financing costs and bought private standard mortgage bonds in order to benefit through arbitrage; (3) while there was no reasonable pathway to attain the target, they pressured the government about the regulatory objectives, leading to the expansion of risk exposure. This paper thinks that the profits-reaping acts of the policy-related financial institutions will increase the credit risk, and ignoring the pathway to achieve the regulatory objectives is the latent danger behind the accumulation of risk. Therefore, China's policy-related housing financial institutions should improve their self-regulatory capacity in order to establish a perfect risk management strategy.
