Two Harbors Investment Corp. is a specialized finance company that focuses on investing in, financing, and managing a portfolio of mortgage servicing rights (MSRs), and residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS) alongside other financial assets within the United States. Structured as a Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT), the firm operates with the goal of delivering strong risk-adjusted returns for its stockholders, by capitalizing on the strategic management of its investment portfolios. Since its establishment in 2009, Two Harbors has committed itself to navigate the complex landscape of mortgage and financial assets, leveraging its expertise to generate sustainable income. Operating from its headquarters in St. Louis Park, Minnesota, Two Harbors ensures compliance with federal laws by qualifying as a REIT, mandating the distribution of at least 90% of its annual taxable income back to its shareholders.
Two Harbors Investment Corp. invests in RMBS that are backed by residential mortgages. These investments are characterized by different types of mortgage loans including fixed rate, adjustable rate, and hybrid mortgage loans. Through these investments, Two Harbors aims to leverage the stability and reliability of agency-backed securities to generate returns.
The company has investments in MSRs, offering a strategic position in the mortgage servicing industry. MSRs provide Two Harbors with servicing fees from managing the payment collection and other servicing activities of mortgages. This not only diversifies the company's portfolio but also adds a steady revenue stream.
Beyond the realm of agency securities, Two Harbors also ventures into non-agency securities and engages in non-hedging financial transactions. These activities are targeted to maximize the investment opportunities beyond traditional agency RMBS, seeking higher returns in exchange for taking on higher risk profiles.
The company's portfolio extends to derivatives and a variety of other financial and mortgage-related assets. These investments are part of Two Harbors' broader strategy to optimize returns through diversified and carefully calibrated risk management practices.
