Federal Home Loan Bank Standby Letters of Credit

Краткое содержание

The Federal Housing Finance Board is codifying its existing policy on Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLBank) standby letters of credit (LOCs) in a regulation and amending the policy to allow for broader use of standby LOCs by FHLBank members and eligible nonmember mortgagees. This final rule also eliminates or modifies some of the restrictions currently imposed on standby LOCs issued or confirmed by FHLBanks that limit the usefulness of these products to members and eligible nonmember mortgagees.
