Federal Home Loan Bank of New York

Federal Home Loan Bank of New York

Wholesale mortgage liquidity provider for members

Overview

The Federal Home Loan Bank of New York (FHLBNY) is a wholesale financial institution that helps local community lenders in New Jersey, New York, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands grow housing and neighborhood development. It provides real-estate-collateralized credit and liquidity to its member institutions, which include commercial banks, savings banks and credit unions, so those lenders can offer affordable housing and community programs in their communities. The bank’s products work by offering secured loans and liquidity to member lenders, who then on-lend to households and small businesses. As a privately-owned cooperative within the nationwide Federal Home Loan Bank System, FHLBNY distinguishes itself by being Congress-chartered and focusing on pooled liquidity and secured credit for its members rather than direct consumer lending. Its goal is to advance housing opportunity and local community development by maximizing the capacity of member lenders to serve their markets.

The Federal Home Loan Bank of New York has invested $225 million in a New York City Housing Development Corporation bond issuance to help create, rehabilitate or preserve 6,320 units of affordable housing. This follows a $150 million bond purchase in June 2025 supporting over 2,250 homes.

Affordability levels reach as low as 30% of area median income. Over 25 years, FHLBNY has invested $1.66 billion in HDC bonds, supporting 70,000 homes across New York City.
