• Government National Mortgage Association G.N.M.A. - a government guaranteed security. A <br />certificate represents a share in a pool of FHA or VA mortgages.

This means placing investment funds with the institution that <br />gives the City the best return on its investment. <br />• <br />• <br />S~ <br />
