Re:Mortgages are a manufactured product by patrickthebold on Friday January 14, 2022 @03:51PM (#29940252)
The Gses bundle up the mortgages and sell mortgage backed securities to investors. The prepayment risk flows through to those investors. As an extreme example, some securities they separately sell the principle payments and the interest payments. So if you bought the interest payments on a bunch of mortgages you stop getting paid as people prepay.

The folks who bought the principle payments are very happy to get paid early.
