AGNC Investment Corp.
AGNC Investment Corp. is a US-based mortgage real estate investment trust (mREIT) that chiefly invests in agency residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS). It aims to generate income by earning the spread between the interest it receives on MBS and its funding costs, often using leverage and short-term financing. Agency RMBS holdings are typically issued or guaranteed by agencies such as Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac; credit risk tends to differ across those instruments. AGNC’s performance is sensitive to interest rates, yield curve moves, prepayment speeds and financing conditions, so its net asset value and dividends can be volatile. With a market capitalisation around $10.78bn, the company may appeal to income-seeking investors who understand higher risk and leverage. This summary is educational only, not personalised financial advice — values can fall as well as rise, and dividends are not guaranteed. Consider your objectives and consult a qualified financial adviser before investing.
