Update to Forward Starting Advances
The Federal Home Loan Bank of New York (FHLBNY) is changing the parameters of Forward Starting Advances effective May 1, 2024. Forward Starting Advances give members the flexibility to book funding with a future settlement date to match advance funding with future liquidity needs.
Forward Starting Advances will now have a maximum settlement date of 3 months*
(reduced from 1 year). In addition, any settlement date beyond a week will:
- be subject to credit review and approval, and
- require 5% collateralization of the principal value of the advance.
Upon settlement of the advance, the member will be required to fully collateralize the advance.
These changes will help your Federal Home Loan Bank remain a stable, reliable, and trusted partner by reducing the FHLBNY’s risk exposure over the term of the forward start period while still providing members flexibility to meet borrowing needs.
In accordance with these changes, the FHLBNY’s Member Products Guide will be updated and can be found on 1Link® in the ‘Manuals and Guides’ section.
*Members with credit restrictions may only utilize Forward Starting Advances with a settlement date of 1-week and under
