Dylan Glenn And Lynnette Kelly Join Board Of Managers Of Common Securitization Solutions As Independent Members

BETHESDA, Md., Jan. 5, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Common Securitization Solutions (CSS) today announced that Dylan Glenn and Lynnette Kelly joined its Board of Managers as new independent members effective January 1.

In January 2020, FHFA announced Giancarlo's appointment as independent Chairman of the Board and also announced that CSS was amending its Board structure, expanding the Board from four members to nine. These changes gave a seat on the Board to CSS CEO Tony Renzi, as well as providing FHFA the opportunity to appoint up to three independent Board members in addition to Giancarlo. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac continue to appoint two Board members each. Under Giancarlo's leadership, the Board, alongside FHFA and Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, is helping determine the future state of CSS. This includes positioning CSS to do more for new market participants in the secondary mortgage market, as outlined by FHFA in its 2020 Scorecard.
