Information Sharing Among Federal Home Loan Banks

Section 1207 of the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 (HERA) amended the Federal Home Loan Bank Act (Bank Act) to require the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) to make available to each Federal Home Loan Bank (Bank) information relating to the financial condition of all other Banks. Section 1207 also requires FHFA to promulgate regulations to facilitate the sharing of such information among the Banks. FHFA published a proposed rule to implement those HERA provisions in late 2010, but, after reviewing the comments and reconsidering the proposed means of information sharing, FHFA has determined that a number of material changes to the rule are necessary. Therefore, it is publishing this second proposed rule to implement the provisions of section 1207.
