The level of total financial and nonfinancial preferred equity is benchmarked to data from Standard and Poor's and is calculated for other periods using a perpetual inventory method based on transactions data from Thomson Financial and the Standard and Poor's U.S. Preferred Stock Index. Total preferred stock is then allocated to Fannie Mae by applying Fannie Mae's share of total domestic financial corporate equity to the financial portion of the preferred stock, using a ratio from Standard and Poor's Compustat to split out preferred stock between financial and nonfinancial corporations. Level also includes a portion of corporate equities issued by GSEs under federal financial stabilization programs ( FOF series FL313064183). Preferred equity is not included prior to 1996Q4.
