Headline Partner

Aravind “Jag” Jagannathan, Single Family Vice President and Chief Data Officer, Freddie Mac

I lead a team of more than 500 in driving data strategy, governance, data asset management and integration, data product ownership, and business intelligence for the Single-Family division. My focus is on harnessing data to deliver innovative, customer-centric products, streamline operations, and strengthen Freddie Mac’s competitive edge. 

Throughout my career, I have led large scale transformations in operations and technology from JPM Chase and the World Bank to Freddie Mac. Notable accomplishments include helping Freddie Mac establish a common mortgage-backed security with Fannie Mae and launching a joint venture, Common Securitization Solutions (CSS) to support the mortgage market. 

I have been a champion of driving growth and innovation for Freddie Mac. During my tenure, the Single-Family division has matured its data management capabilities to best-in-class in the industry. I have driven initiatives to simplify the SF data ecosystem and modernize data assets. This new modernized platform is being built using scalable, resilient, and secure cloud technologies that are laying the foundation for FM to build its next generation advanced analytics and enhance speed to market to meet its mission and customer needs.
