FEDERAL RESERVE statistical release

For Release at

4:30 P.M. EDT

April 9, 2020

The Board's H.4.1 statistical release, "Factors Affecting Reserve Balances of Depository Institutions and Condition Statement of Federal Reserve Banks," has been modified to include information related to the temporary repurchase agreement facility for foreign and international monetary authorities (FIMA Repo Facility) and the purchases of agency commercial mortgage-backed securities.

The FIMA Repo Facility was announced by the Federal Reserve on March 31, 2020, and began operations on April 6, 2020. The FIMA Repo Facility will allow FIMA account holders, which consist of central banks and other international monetary authorities with accounts at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, to enter into repurchase agreements with the Federal Reserve’s System Open Market Account (SOMA). Beginning with this release, in table 1 the line item “Repurchase agreements” reports in aggregate repurchase agreements conducted through the FIMA Repo Facility and those conducted with primary dealers. Repurchase agreements conducted with primary dealers, formerly reported in the line item “Repurchase agreements” in prior releases, are now presented in the line item “Others.” The FIMA Repo Facility is presented in the line item “Foreign official” under “Repurchase agreements.” Aggregate repurchase agreements also are reported in tables 2, 4, 5, and 6.

The Federal Reserve announced on March 23, 2020 that SOMA will start buying agency commercial mortgage-backed securities and operations began on March 27, 2020. Two new lines were added to table 3, Supplemental Information on Mortgage-Backed Securities, to separately report commercial mortgage-backed securities and residential mortgage-backed securities. These securities are presented in tables 1 and 4 in the line item “Mortgage-backed securities” and in table 5 in the line item “Securities, unamortized premiums and discounts, repurchase agreements, and loans.”

5. Statement of Condition of Each Federal Reserve Bank, April 8, 2020 (continued)

1.

Securities include outright holdings of U.S. Treasury securities, federal agency debt securities, and mortgage-backed securities, including securities lent to dealers under the overnight securities lending facility; refer to table 1A. Mortgage-backed securities are guaranteed by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and Ginnie Mae. Unamortized premiums and discounts are the differences between the purchase price and the face value of the securities that have not been amortized.  For U.S. Treasury securities, federal agency debt securities, and mortgage-backed securities, amortization is on an effective-interest basis. Repurchase agreements reflect the cash value of agreements, which are collateralized by U.S. Treasury and federal agency securities. Loans includes primary, secondary, and seasonal loans and credit extended through the Primary Dealer Credit Facility, Money Market Mutual Fund Liquidity Facility, and other credit extensions.

2.

Dollar value of foreign currency held under these agreements valued at the exchange rate to be used when the foreign currency is returned to the foreign central bank. This exchange rate
equals the market exchange rate used when the foreign currency was acquired from the foreign central bank.

3.

Revalued daily at current foreign currency exchange rates.

4.

Includes items in process of collection, bank premises, accrued interest (which represents the daily accumulation of interest earned), and other accounts receivable. Also includes Net portfolio holdings of Maiden Lane LLC; refer to the note on consolidation for additional information.

5.

Cash value of agreements, which are collateralized by U.S. Treasury securities, federal agency debt securities, and mortgage-backed securities.

6.

Includes deposits held at the Reserve Banks by international and multilateral organizations, government-sponsored enterprises, designated financial market utilities, and deposits held by depository institutions in joint accounts in connection with their participation in certain private-sector payment arrangements.  Also includes certain deposit accounts other than the U.S. Treasury, General Account, for services provided by the Reserve Banks as fiscal agents of the United States.

7.

Represents the estimated weekly remittances due to U.S. Treasury. The amounts on this line represent the residual net earnings that the Federal Reserve Banks remit to the U.S. Treasury after providing for the costs of operations, payment of dividends, and the amount necessary to maintain a $6.825 billion surplus.

Note on consolidation:

On June 26, 2008, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (FRBNY) extended a loan to Maiden Lane LLC (ML) under the authority of section 13(3) of the Federal Reserve Act. ML was formed to acquire certain assets of Bear Stearns and to manage those assets through time to maximize repayment of the credit extended and minimize disruption to financial markets. On June 14, 2012, the remaining outstanding balance of the senior loan from FRBNY to ML was repaid in full, with interest. On November 15, 2012, the remaining outstanding balance of the subordinated loan from JPMorgan Chase & Co. to ML was repaid in full, with interest. FRBNY was the primary beneficiary of ML because it received any residual returns and could have absorbed any residual losses should they have occurred. Consistent with generally accepted accounting principles, the assets and liabilities of ML were consolidated with the assets and liabilities of FRBNY in the preparation of the statements of condition shown on this release. As a consequence of the consolidation, the extension of credit from FRBNY to ML was eliminated, the net assets of ML appeared as a component of Other assets on the previous page (and as assets in table 1 and table 4), and the liabilities of ML to entities other than FRBNY, including those with recourse only to the ML portfolio holdings, were included in other liabilities in this table (and table 1 and table 4).
