Information System Controls Over the Ginnie Mae Financial Accounting System

We audited the effectiveness of selected business process application-level general controls and data management controls over the Government National Mortgage Association (Ginnie Mae) Financial Accounting System (GFAS) and its subledger database (SLDB) component as part of the internal control assessments required for the fiscal year 2019 financial statements audit under the Chief Financial Officer’s Act of 1990. We also assessed selected controls for compliance with U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) information technology (IT) policies and Federal information system security and financial management requirements. The OIG has determined that the contents of this audit report would not be appropriate for public disclosure and has therefore limited its distribution to those officials listed on the report distribution list.
