In Wednesdays issue, Hearing Finds Scant Interest in Changing Regulation of GSEs on page 6 accidentally exaggerated a regulators lateness in producing a risk-based capital standard for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Nineteen ninety-two was the year that Congress passed a law calling for the Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight to produce the standard not the year in which it was supposed to have been produced.
Also Wednesday, the headline on a page 7 story about a banker who wants to buy the Tampa Bay Devil Rays baseball team put him in the wrong state. As the story itself made clear, Donald Watkins is based in Alabama.
