It also involves related interest rate hedging activities to manage exposure to interest rate fluctuations, thereby stabilizing returns.

These activities often result in the creation of mortgage-backed securities (MBS), which are then sold to investors. This segment is crucial for ensuring a steady flow of high-credit-quality residential loans, which underpins the company's strong performance in the mortgage market.
