Top Member Strategies That Benefit From Our Advance Specials
Discounted advances paired with a lower all-in cost driven by the Dividend Effect making them one of the cheapest term wholesale funding options—even as other sources grow more expensive across the curve. Members may find strong value in longer term advances, especially when pairing them with various strategies outlined below.
Add Call Protection to Hedge Mortgage Portfolios
The fixed-rate callable advances structure gives members the option to cancel an advance. This is an excellent tool to hedge prepay risk inherent in residential mortgage assets. Callable advances are available with both Bermudan (quarterly, semi-annual, annual) and European (single date) option structures.
Investment Leverage
Match funding long-term fixed-rate securities such as mortgage-backed securities (MBS), commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS), municipal bonds, and corporate bonds is a popular strategy. You may take our fixed-rate advance, swap it to floating, and match fund floating rate securities such as collateralized loan obligations (CLOs), collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs), and FFELP Student Loans. The matched cash flows under this special help generate locked-in spread income to support net interest margin (NIM), enabling you to hedge interest rate risk and benefit from asset duration.
CRE and Multi-Family Loan Leverage
Members can actively utilize advances under these specials to fund long-term prepay protected commercial real estate (CRE) and multi-family loans. Safeguard your liquidity for the life of the loans through amortizing or fixed-rate advances with the specials to capture a stable NIM.Forward Start Advances to Roll Upcoming Maturities
Capture today’s rates for tomorrow’s needs. Use these specials to forward start an advance on the date of an upcoming funding maturity and ensure liquidity for the future.
Extend Liability Duration to Help with ALM
Execute longer-term advances under these specials to increase liability duration. Members can take advantage of the funding specials to create a more asset sensitive balance sheet. Let us help you meet your asset liability management (ALM) goals.
