FEDERAL RESERVE statistical release

For Release at

4:30 P.M. Eastern time

May 28, 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 Municipal Liquidity Facility (MLF). This facility operates through the Municipal Liquidity Facility LLC (MLF LLC), a special purpose vehicle that was formed to help support state and local governments better manage cash flow pressures in order to continue to serve households and business in their communities.

On April 9, 2020, the Federal Reserve announced the MLF. On May 26, 2020, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (FRBNY) received Treasury’s equity contribution for the MLF program.

Consistent with generally accepted accounting principles, the assets and liabilities of MLF LLC have been consolidated with the assets and liabilities of the FRBNY in the preparation of the statements of condition shown on the release because the FRBNY is the managing member of MLF LLC. MLF asset balances from trading activity will be reported in this release on a one-day lag after the transaction date. The net portfolio holdings of MLF LLC appear as an asset on the statement of condition of the FRBNY (table 5), the consolidated statement of condition of all Federal Reserve Banks (table 4), and factors affecting reserve balances of depository institutions (table 1). The amount provided by the U.S. Treasury as credit protection for the MLF LLC is included in “Treasury contributions to credit facilities” in tables 1, 4, and 5.

On May 22, 2020 and pursuant to the facility agreements, 85% of the Treasury’s equity contributions were invested in nonmarketable Treasury securities and reported in “Net portfolio holdings of Commercial Paper Funding Facility II LLC” and “Net portfolio holdings of Corporate Credit Facilities LLCin tables 1, 4, and 5. Note 7 in table 1, note 8 in table 4, and note 2 in table 5, each regarding the net portfolio holdings of the LLCs, were modified to indicate inclusion of those assets. Additionally, the note on consolidation in table 5 was modified to include information related to this activity.

Note on consolidation:

The Federal Reserve Bank of New York (FRBNY) has extended loans to several limited liability companies under the authority of section 13(3) of the Federal Reserve Act. On April 14, 2020, FRBNY began extending loans to the Commercial Paper Funding Facility II LLC (CPFF II LLC), a limited liability company formed to purchase three-month U.S dollar-denominated commercial paper by eligible issuers. The assets of the CPFF II LLC are used to secure the loan from the FRBNY and the amount provided by U.S. Treasury as credit protection to the FRBNY. On May 12, 2020, FRBNY began extending loans to the Corporate Credit Facilities LLC (CCF LLC), a limited liability company formed to purchase eligible bonds or portions of syndicated loans or bonds at issuance through the Primary Market Corporate Credit Facility and to purchase eligible individual corporate bonds and exchange-traded funds through the Secondary Market Corporate Credit Facility. The assets of the CCF LLC are used to secure the loan from the FRBNY and the amount provided by U.S. Treasury as credit protection to the FRBNY.

The FRBNY is the managing member of CPFF II LLC, CCF LLC, and Municipal Liquidity Facility LLC. Consistent with generally accepted accounting principles, the assets and liabilities of each LLC have been accounted for and consolidated with the assets and liabilities of the FRBNY, in the preparation of the statements of condition shown on this release. As a consequence of the consolidation, the loan from the Reserve Bank to the LLC is eliminated as are any balances held at the FRBNY for LLCs consolidated to FRBNY. Treasury contributions to credit facilities are held at the Reserve Bank until invested. Net assets of the LLC appears as assets on table 5 (and in table 1 and table 4), and the liabilities of the LLC to entities other than the FRBNY, including those with recourse only to the portfolio holdings of the LLC, are included in other liabilities in this table (and table 1 and table 4).The amount provided by U.S. Treasury as credit protection to FRBNY appears as liabilities on table 5 (and in table 1 and table 4).
