Largest Education Lenders (FY2003)
Advertisement
|
The following table shows the top 50 originators, holders and
consolidators of
Federal Family Education Loan Program loans. (The list of originators,
holders and consolidators is accurate as of September 30, 2003. This
is the most recent data available.) The
figures for origination exclude consolidation loans. The
figures for holders include consolidation loans.
Lenders that hold the most loans accomplish this either by buying the
loans directly from originators, by originating the loans themselves
and not reselling them, or by consolidating a lot of loans held by
other lenders.
Based on these statistics, the largest purchaser of student loans
is Sallie Mae, followed by College Loan Corporation, Citibank, Brazos Group, Key Corp, EFS
Finance and Mellon Bank. Similarly, the largest seller of student
loans is JP Morgan Chase, followed by Bank One, National City Bank,
American Express, TIAA-CREF, and SC Student Loan Corp.
These lenders originate 84.1% of all FFELP loans.
