What We Do

With $16 billion in permanent capital(1), we are a leader across the residential mortgage finance market.

Business Overview

Annaly's principal business objective is to consistently generate net income for distribution to its stockholders and optimize its returns through prudent management of its diversified investment strategies. Our portfolio includes securities, loans and equity in the mortgage finance market.

Diversified Capital Management

Diversification is a pillar of the Annaly strategy. Since 2010, we have diversified our business model by investing in credit assets directly on balance sheet, complementing our primary portfolio of interest rate sensitive investments. This strategy is designed to achieve durable risk adjusted returns over various interest rate and economic cycles by pairing shorter floating-rate credit securities with our longer, fixed-rate agency portfolio.
