8/11/2020 Federal Reserve Board - Federal Reserve Board announces revised pricing for its Municipal Liquidity Facility Press Release August 11, 2020 Federal Reserve Board announces revised pricing for its Municipal Liquidity Facility For release at 5:00 p.m. EDT Share The Federal Reserve Board on Tuesday announced revised pricing for its Municipal Liquidity Facility (MLF). The revised pricing reduces the interest rate spread on tax-exempt notes for each credit rating category by 50 basis points and reduces the amount by which the interest rate for taxable notes is adjusted relative to taxexempt notes. Today's changes will ensure the MLF continues to provide an effective backstop to assist U.S. states and local governments as they weather the pandemic. The MLF was established under Section 13(3) of the Federal Reserve Act, with approval of the Treasury Secretary. It offers up to $500 billion in lending to states and municipalities to help manage cash flow stresses caused by the coronavirus pandemic. For media inquiries, call 202-452-2955.
