Freddie Mac names Deborah Jenkins head of multifamily

Deborah Jenkins is now officially running Freddie Mac’s multifamily business, two months ahead of schedule. Jenkins, who previously served as Freddie Mac’s senior vice president of multifamily underwriting and credit, was promoted to executive vice president and head of the GSE’s multifamily operations back in September. Jenkins was originally set to take over those roles on Jan. 1, 2019, but the GSE announced Monday that Jenkins is assuming the roles immediately.
