Abstract
⺠Empirical pricing models are used to assess Federal Reserve MBS purchases. ⺠Both MBS pricing and mortgage pricing models are developed. ⺠The Federal Reserve's MBS purchases improved market functioning during the crisis. ⺠Both the primary and secondary mortgage markets were substantially helped. ⺠The program also put significant downward pressure on mortgage rates.
