Sam ValverdeValverde succeeds Alanna McCargo, who began serving as Ginnie Mae president in January 2022 until announcing her resignation in April.

During that time, he assisted with the transition away from the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) index after its deficiencies were exposed in prior years.
Before joining FHFA, Valverde served at the U.S. Department of the Treasury as a counselor for domestic finance, where he worked on the conservatorships of the government-sponsored enterprises, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
His career prior to government service saw him serve as a securities lawyer at Davis Polk & Wardell LLP, and he earned his J.D. from Yale Law School.
