I am pleased to announce that, on May 12, 2022, our Board of Directors approved a dividend for the first quarter of 2022 of 4.75% (annualized). The dollar amount of the dividend will be approximately $52.9 million. The cash dividend will be distributed on May 13, 2022.
As we continue to move into a steadily improving operating environment, the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York is strongly positioned to continue to meet the ever-changing needs of our members. Our ability to provide a consistent and reasonable return on your investment in our cooperative is one of the many ways in which we demonstrate our role as a reliable partner to our members.
The health and economic crises resulting from COVID-19 continue to be unpredictable and may affect the environment in which the FHLBNY operates. Changes to market and business conditions may negatively impact the FHLBNY’s financial performance and level of dividends. The FHLBNY will continue to assess the potential effects of changes in the environment on its financial performance and dividend strategy.
We expect to file our Form 10-Q for the first quarter of 2022 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on May 12, 2022.
Sincerely,
José R. González
President and Chief Executive Officer
