SEC settles with former Fannie Mae execs over subprime fraud

A 2011 lawsuit brought by the Securities and Exchange Commission against two former Fannie Mae executives over charges that the Fannie execs misled investors about the quality of subprime mortgages, is over, and it ended with a whimper.

According to a report from the Wall Street Journal, the SEC reached a settlement agreement with Enrico Dallavecchia, Fannie Mae’s former chief risk office, and Thomas Lund, Fannie Mae’s former chief of the single-family operation, for a mere $35,000.
