“10-K Item 1A: 'approximately 90.6% of the $8.4 billion outstanding principal amount of AgVantage securities...were issued by three institutions'”
“10-K Item 1A: 'In 2025, ten institutions generated approximately 55% of loan purchase volume in the Agricultural Finance line of business'”
“10-K Item 1A: 'transactions with two institutions represented nearly all of the business volume under our Infrastructure Finance line of business'”
Federal Agricultural Mortgage Corporation (Farmer Mac) carries three high-share concentration exposures that span its core business lines, each reflecting a dependency on a narrow set of institutional counterparties rather than on any structural market feature. The most quantitatively precise is the AgVantage program: approximately 90.6% of the $8.4 billion outstanding principal amount of AgVantage securities were issued by three institutions. This is the largest disclosed exposure — a large share of the AgVantage portfolio concentrated in just three issuers, meaning the credit and operational performance of those counterparties has an outsized influence on this segment. In the Agricultural Finance lending line, ten institutions generated approximately 55% of loan purchase volume in 2025 — a large share of origination flowing through a handful of lenders. A pullback, credit deterioration, or loss of a key originating institution from the top ten would reduce purchase volume proportionally, as the pipeline is not broadly distributed across a long tail of smaller institutions. The Infrastructure Finance line presents the most concentrated picture in relative terms: transactions with two institutions represented nearly all of the business volume under that program. While no specific percentage is disclosed, the "nearly all" characterization makes this an effective single-counterparty risk at the segment level. Across all three business lines, the disclosed concentrations are dependency-driven rather than structural: they reflect how origination and issuance happen to be distributed among institutional participants, not the inherent composition of the underlying collateral markets. The institutional counterparty relationships are the primary variables to monitor in each segment.
