Non-Credit Services: Safekeeping

The FHLB Chicago's safekeeping service provides a unique and distinct advantage for financial institutions. When used in tandem with other FHLB Chicago products, customers can obtain a package of financial services that cannot be duplicated elsewhere. In addition, all collected funds from coupon payments, security sales, and maturities are automatically invested in the customer's DID account, earning the FHLB Chicago's market interest rate.

When pledging as collateral for an advance, FHLB Chicago safekeeping customers also enjoy a greater loan value over collateral that is safekept elsewhere.
