AGNC Investment Launches New Fixed Income Indices in Partnership with ICE

AGNC Investment Debuts Innovative Fixed Income Indices in Partnership with ICE

AGNC Investment Corp. has taken a significant step forward in the fixed income market with the launch of new indices developed in collaboration with Intercontinental Exchange, Inc. (ICE). Announced on October 15, 2025, these indices specifically track the performance of current coupon Agency mortgage-backed securities (MBS). The introduction includes the AGNC ICE UMBS 30-Year Current Coupon Index (AGNCU30C), which monitors 30-year fixed-rate residential MBS guaranteed by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, along with the AGNC ICE UMBS 15-Year Current Coupon Index (AGNCU15C) for 15-year fixed-rate MBS, as well as the AGNC ICE GNMA 30-Year Current Coupon Index (AGNCG30C) for 30-year fixed-rate MBS backed by Ginnie Mae.

Sean Reid, Executive Vice President of Strategy and Corporate Development at AGNC, highlights the potential of these indices to offer valuable insights into the actively traded segments of Agency MBS. Given AGNC's expertise in investing in Agency residential MBS, these indices are expected to enhance market understanding and provide investors with critical data on performance trends. This move not only reinforces AGNC's position in the mortgage-backed securities market but also aligns with its commitment to leveraging technology and innovation to improve market transparency and efficiency.

Since its establishment in 2008, AGNC has positioned itself as a key player in the U.S. residential housing market, utilizing repurchase agreements and sophisticated risk management strategies to protect its portfolio value from market fluctuations. With over $15 billion paid in common stock dividends since inception, AGNC has established itself as a substantial source of private capital, making this latest development in index creation a natural progression in its journey to further enhance its offerings and provide comprehensive data solutions to its investors and industry partners.

In addition to the announcement regarding the new indices, AGNC encourages stakeholders to visit its website for more information. The collaboration with ICE not only reflects AGNC's dedication to innovation but also its ongoing strategy to utilize advanced financial technologies and data services to drive market efficiency across various asset classes. This initiative marks a pivotal moment for AGNC as it continues to solidify its role within the fixed income landscape.
