The total book of business at Fannie Mae concluded November at $3.2054 trillion, according to its November 2017
Monthly Summary.

An $0.2363 trillion mortgage portfolio and $2.9691 trillion

On its single-family book of business, 90-day delinquency was 1.12 percent — surging to the highest level since it was 1.12 percent as of March 31. The deterioration likely reflects the impact of recent hurricanes.
