Introducing the Callable Advance

Flexible Funding for Challenging Times

The Federal Home Loan Bank of New York (FHLBNY) is pleased to introduce the Callable Advance. The Callable Advance was developed in consultation with our members to help meet their changing liquidity needs and to assist in their asset/liability management.

Simply stated, the Callable Advance is a Fixed-Rate Advance that gives members the option of calling (terminating) the advance on predetermined dates, prior to maturity, without incurring a prepayment fee. For example, a 5-year, non-callable 1-year (5NC1) Bermudan Callable is a 5-year advance that would permit a member to call the advance (in whole or partially), without penalty, one year from the origination date of the advance, or quarterly thereafter.

The Callable Advance could be especially beneficial for members seeking funding with added flexibility or for members purchasing jumbo residential mortgages, as it can be used to complement a consumer’s mortgage call option.

Callable Advance Features:
Minimum advance size per trade: $5 million
Final maturities available: 3, 5, 7, or 10 years
Lockout periods: 1, 2, 3, or 5 years
Call options: Bermudan (quarterly) or European (one-time)
Required notification time to exercise call option: 9 business days
Interest payment: Quarterly based on an Actual/360 day count

For more information on how the Callable Advance can help meet your institution’s funding needs, contact a Calling Officer at (212) 441-6700.
