Treasury plans to sell up to $10 billion of securities per month, subject to market conditions. This is in addition to principal paydowns (currently ranging between $2 and $4 billion per month). If the sales proceeded at the full $10 billion per month, the portfolio would be unwound in whole over approximately one year, depending on future rates of prepayments. If market conditions change and Treasury slows asset sales, it is possible that the unwind will take a longer period of time. Excel data shows the total principal and interest that the Treasury received from purchase to sell off of the MBS securities.
