I havent looked in detail lately - but I believe they issue bonds and the bond holders would be covering the impact of a market crash.

You would prefer if there was not such an insurance system required for home owners putting less than 20% down?

I know I would. It would be like the 90's again where banks had to only loan out to people who they thought wouldn't default.
