Federal Reserve System Monthly Report on Credit and Liquidity Programs and the Balance Sheet August 2011 BOARD OF GOVERNORS OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM To order additional copies of this or other Federal Reserve Board publications, contact: Publications Fulfillment Mail Stop N-127 Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System Washington, DC 20551 (ph) 202-452-3245 (fax) 202-728-5886 (e-mail) Publications-BOG@frb.gov This and other Federal Reserve Board reports to Congress are also available online at www.federalreserve.gov/boarddocs/rptcongress/default.htm. i Purpose The Federal Reserve prepares this monthly report as part of its efforts to enhance transparency about the range of programs and tools that have been implemented in response to the financial crisis and to ensure appropriate accountability to the Congress and the public. The Federal Reserve’s statutory mandate in conducting monetary policy is to foster maximum employment and stable prices. Financial stability is a critical prerequisite for achieving sustainable economic growth and price stability, and the Federal Reserve implemented a number of credit and liquidity programs to support the liquidity of financial institutions and to foster improved conditions in financial markets in response to the extraordinary strains that began to emerge in the summer of 2007. This report provides detailed information on the policy tools that were implemented to address the financial crisis. It also provides financial reporting for the Federal Reserve System through the second quarter of 2011. In fulfillment of Section 129 of the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008, additional informaNote: Financial information in this report has not been audited. Financial data are audited annually and are available at www.federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy/bst_fedfinancials.htm. tion on the status of certain credit facilities implemented in response to the financial crisis is included as Appendix A of this report. Information related to the Federal Reserve’s temporary liquidity programs and facilities that have closed or expired is included in Appendix B of this report. The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the “Dodd-Frank Act”), which was signed into law on July 21, 2010, included provisions designed to further promote transparency by requiring disclosure of certain information about entities that received loans or otherwise participated in Federal Reserve credit and liquidity programs. As provided by the Dodd-Frank Act, transaction-level details and audit information from December 1, 2007, to July 21, 2010, are now posted on the Federal Reserve Board’s public website.1 Further information on the transparency provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act is included in Appendix C of this report.

Federal Reserve Conducts Another SmallValue TDF Auction ‰ On July 25, 2011, the Federal Reserve conducted an auction of $5 billion of 28-day term deposits through the Term Deposit Facility (TDF). The awarded deposits settled on July 28, 2011, and will mature on August 25, 2011. Additional information about term deposits, auction results, and future small-value offerings is available through the TDF Resource Center at www.frbservices.org/ centralbank/term_deposit_facility.html. The ongoing small-value TDF offerings are a matter of prudent planning and have no implications for the near-term conduct of monetary policy. FRBNY Continues to Expand List of Counterparties for Reverse Repo Transactions ‰ On July 27, 2011, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (FRBNY) announced that it had accepted two government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs)—the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac) and the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae)—as reverse repurchase transaction (reverse repo) counterparties, and on July 28, announced the criteria for acceptance of banks and savings associations as counterparties eligible to participate in reverse repos. Further information on reverse repo counterparties is available online at www.newyorkfed.org/markets/ rrp_announcements.html.

Credit and liquidity programs and the Federal Reserve’s balance sheet 3 4 System Open Market Account Domestic SOMA Portfolio Recent Developments ‰ Between June 29 and July 27, 2011, the SOMA’s holdings of longer-term Treasury securities grew and its holdings of agency debt and agency mortgage-backed securities (MBS) declined, consistent with the FOMC’s decision in June 2011 to maintain the existing policy of reinvesting principal payments on all domestic securities in the SOMA in Treasury securities. This policy maintains the total face value of domestic securities in the SOMA at approximately $2.6 trillion. ‰ On July 27, 2011, the FRBNY announced that it had accepted Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae as reverse repo counterparties, and on July 28, it announced the criteria for acceptance of banks and savings associations as counterparties eligible to participate in reverse repos. Further information on reverse repo counterparties is available online at www.newyorkfed.org/markets/ rrp_announcements.html. Background Open market operations (OMOs)—the purchase and sale of securities in the open market by a central bank—are a key tool used by the Federal Reserve in the implementation of monetary policy. Historically, the Federal Reserve has used OMOs to adjust the supply of reserve balances so as to keep the federal funds rate around the target federal funds rate established by the FOMC. OMOs are conducted by the Trading Desk at the FRBNY, which acts as agent for the FOMC. The range of securities that the Federal Reserve is authorized to purchase and sell is relatively limited. The authority to conduct OMOs is granted under Section 14 of the Federal Reserve Act. OMOs can be divided into two types: permanent and temporary. Permanent OMOs are outright purchases or sales of securities for the SOMA, the Federal Reserve’s portfolio. Permanent OMOs traditionally have been used to accommodate the longer-term factors driving the expansion of the Federal Reserve’s balance sheet, principally the trend growth of currency in circulation. More recently, the expansion of SOMA securities holdings has been driven by largescale asset purchase programs (LSAPs). Temporary OMOs typically are used to address reserve needs that are deemed to be transitory in nature. These operations are either repurchase agreements (repos) or reverse repurchase agreements (reverse repos). Under a repo, the Trading Desk buys a security under an agreement to resell that security in the future; under a reverse repo, the Trading Desk sells a security under an agreement to repurchase that security in the future. A repo is the economic equivalent of a collateralized loan; conversely, a reverse repo is the economic equivalent of collateralized borrowing. In both types of transactions, the difference between the purchase and sale prices reflects the interest on the loan or borrowing. The composition of the SOMA is presented in table 2. Each OMO affects the Federal Reserve’s balance sheet; the size and nature of the effect depend on the specifics of the operation. The Federal Reserve publishes its balance sheet each week in the H.4.1 statistical release, “Factors Affecting Reserve Balances of Depository Institutions and Consolidated Statement of Condition of Reserve Banks,” available at www.federalreserve.gov/releases/h41/. The release separately reports securities held outright, repos, and reverse repos. In addition, the Federal Reserve has long operated an overnight securities lending facility as a vehicle to address market pressures for specific Treasury securities. Since July 9, 2009, this facility has also lent housing-related GSE debt securities that are particularly sought after. Amounts outstanding under this facility are reported weekly in table 1A of the H.4.1 statistical release. The FRBNY’s traditional counterparties for OMOs are the primary dealers with which the FRBNY August 2011 Table 2.

The revised policy offers a more structured presentation of the business standards expected of a primary dealer; a more formal application process for prospective primary dealers; an increase in the minimum net capital requirement, from $50 million to $150 million; a seasoning requirement of one year of relevant operations before a prospective dealer may submit an application; and a clear notice of actions the FRBNY may take against a noncompliant primary dealer. Since late 2009, the FRBNY has taken steps to expand the types of counterparties for some OMOs to include entities other than primary dealers. Details on the counterparty expansion effort are presented below. Large-Scale Asset Purchase Programs In November 2008, the Federal Reserve announced that it would buy direct obligations of Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and the Federal Home Loan Banks, and MBS guaranteed by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and Ginnie Mae. The goal of these debt purchases was to reduce the cost and increase the availability of credit for the purchase of houses. In March 2009, the FOMC authorized purchases of up to $1.25 trillion 1 A current list of primary dealers is available on the FRBNY’s website at www.newyorkfed.org/markets/pridealers_ current.html. 5 of agency MBS and up to $200 billion of agency direct obligations. Subsequently, in November 2009, the FOMC announced that agency debt purchases would be about $175 billion. This amount, while somewhat less than the previously announced maximum of $200 billion, was consistent with the path of purchases and reflected the limited availability of agency debt. The Federal Reserve also determined that supporting the MBS “dollar roll” market promoted the goals of the MBS purchase program. Dollar roll transactions consist of a purchase or sale of “to be announced” (TBA) MBS combined with an agreement to sell or purchase TBA MBS on a specified future date. Because of principal and interest payments and, during the time in which transactions were being conducted, occasional delays in the settlement of transactions, the Federal Reserve also holds some cash and short-term investments associated with the MBS purchase program. On June 28, 2010, the Federal Reserve began entering into coupon swaps, which are trades with a single counterparty in which the Federal Reserve agrees to simultaneously sell TBA MBS in one coupon and to buy an equal face value of TBA MBS in a different coupon. MBS dollar roll transactions and coupon swaps are recorded on settlement date and may generate realized gains and losses. In March 2009, the FOMC announced that it would also purchase up to $300 billion of longer-term Treasury securities to help improve conditions in private credit markets. The Federal Reserve purchased a range of securities across the maturity spectrum, including Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS). The bulk of purchases were in intermediate maturities. In August 2009, the FOMC announced that it would gradually slow the pace of these transactions in order to promote a smooth transition in markets as purchases of these Treasury securities were completed. As anticipated, the purchases were completed by the end of October 2009. The FRBNY announced in August 2009 that it would streamline the set of external investment managers for the agency-guaranteed MBS purchase program, reducing the number of investment managers from four to two. As of March 2, 2010, the FRBNY began to use its own staff on select days to transact directly in the secondary market for agency MBS as part of the FOMC’s large-scale asset purchase programs (LSAPs), consistent with the announcement of November 2009. These changes were not performance-related: the FRBNY had anticipated 6 Credit and Liquidity Programs and the Balance Sheet that it would adjust its use of external investment managers as it gained more experience with the program. In September 2009, the Federal Reserve began to purchase on-the-run agency debt securities—the most recently issued securities—in order to mitigate market dislocations and promote overall market functioning. Prior to this change, purchases were focused on off-the-run agency debt securities. On September 23, 2009, the FOMC announced its intention to gradually slow the pace of its purchases of agency-guaranteed MBS and agency debt. In implementing this directive, the Trading Desk of the FRBNY announced that it would scale back the average weekly purchase amounts of agency MBS and reduce the size and frequency of agency debt purchases. As anticipated by the FOMC, these transactions were completed by the end of the first quarter of 2010. As of August 19, 2010, the settlement of all remaining outstanding MBS from these purchases was complete. In January 2011, the FRBNY began a process to streamline the administration of agency MBS held in the SOMA portfolio by consolidating these securities through a service offered by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac called CUSIP aggregation. The Federal Reserve’s outright holdings of MBS are reported weekly in tables 1, 3, 8, and 9 of the H.4.1 statistical release. In addition, detailed data on all settled agency MBS holdings, including those that have been aggregated, are published weekly on the FRBNY website at www.newyorkfed.org/markets/ soma/sysopen_accholdings.html. so, the FRBNY announced the distribution of maturities of securities it planned to purchase. In addition, in order to promote transparency in the market, the FRBNY began publishing the prices at which the securities were purchased at the end of each scheduled monthly purchase period. Finally, to provide operational flexibility and to ensure that it was able to purchase the most attractive securities on a relative-value basis, the FRBNY temporarily relaxed the 35 percent per-issue limit on SOMA holdings under which it had been operating. As the asset-purchase program neared completion, on June 22, 2011, the FOMC announced that it would maintain its existing policy of reinvesting principal payments on all domestic securities in the SOMA in Treasury securities. This policy maintains the total face value of domestic securities in the SOMA at approximately $2.6 trillion. These purchases will be allocated across maturities according to a distribution outlined at www.newyorkfed.org/ markets/opolicy/operating_policy_110622.html. As part of the reinvestment policy, the FRBNY publishes a tentative monthly schedule for Treasury security purchases at www.newyorkfed.org/markets/ tot_operation_schedule.html. The FRBNY continues to disclose securities purchase prices for each monthly purchase period at www.newyorkfed.org/ markets/pomo/display/index.cfm. Additional information is available at www.newyorkfed.org/markets/ lttreas_faq.html. Reverse Repos On August 10, 2010, the FOMC announced that the Federal Reserve would maintain the level of domestic securities holdings in the SOMA portfolio by reinvesting principal payments from agency debt and agency MBS in longer-term Treasury securities. As of August 4, 2010, outright holdings of securities in the SOMA portfolio totaled roughly $2 trillion. On November 3, 2010, the FOMC decided to expand its holdings of securities and announced that, in addition to maintaining the existing reinvestment policy, it intended to purchase a further $600 billion of longer-term Treasury securities by the end of the second quarter of 2011. The last purchase under this program occurred on June 30, 2011. The FRBNY executed the purchase of additional Treasury securities and the reinvestment plan, as directed by the FOMC in November 2010. In doing Reverse repos are a tool that could be used to support a reduction in monetary accommodation at the appropriate time. Under a reverse repo, the FRBNY Trading Desk sells a security under an agreement to repurchase that security in the future. A reverse repo is the economic equivalent of collateralized borrowing. The FRBNY periodically conducts these transactions to ensure operational readiness at the Federal Reserve, the major clearing banks, the primary dealers, and other counterparties; the transactions have no material impact on the availability of reserves or on market rates. These activities with respect to reverse repos are a matter of prudent advance planning by the Federal Reserve. They do not represent any change in the stance of monetary policy, and no inference should August 2011 be drawn about the timing of any change in the stance of monetary policy in the future. Expanded Counterparties Since late 2009, the FRBNY has taken steps to expand the types of counterparties for reverse repos to include entities other than primary dealers. This initiative is intended to enhance the Federal Reserve’s capacity to conduct large-scale reverse repo operations to drain reserves beyond what could likely be conducted through primary dealers. The additional counterparties are not eligible to participate in transactions conducted by the FRBNY other than reverse repos. To date, the FRBNY has initiated three waves of counterparty expansions aimed at domestic money market funds. With each wave, the set of eligibility criteria was broadened to allow more and smaller money market funds to participate as counterparties. With each expansion, the FRBNY published updated eligibility criteria and the Reverse Repurchase Program Form Master Repurchase Agreement for Money Funds, which set out the legal terms and conditions under which the FRBNY and its money market mutual fund counterparties may undertake reverse repos. On May 24, 2011, the FRBNY announced the criteria for acceptance of GSEs as counterparties eligible to participate in reverse repos. Additional information about GSEs as counterparties is available at www.newyorkfed.org/markets/rrp_gse.html. Each institution accepted as a reverse repo counterparty submitted an application and meets the criteria published by the FRBNY pursuant to the relevant counterparty expansion wave. Acceptance as a counterparty does not constitute a public endorsement by the FRBNY of any listed counterparty and should not substitute for prudent counterparty risk management and due diligence. The expanded counterparty list and updated criteria and master agreement are available on the FRBNY’s website at www.newyorkfed.org/markets/rrp_counterparties.html. Transactions In December 2009, the FRBNY conducted its first set of small-scale, real-value, triparty reverse repos with primary dealers. In August 2010, a second series of small-scale, real-value reverse repos was conducted using all eligible collateral types, including, for the first time, agency MBS from the SOMA portfolio. In October 2010, the FRBNY conducted a third series of operations, some of which were open to the set of 7 expanded counterparties announced on August 18, 2010. Another series of small-scale, real-value, triparty reverse repos was conducted in March 2011 and included operations with the set of expanded counterparties announced on January 21, 2011. Additional operations conducted in June 2011 were open to the expanded set of counterparties announced on May 23, 2011. Additional details and the results of these operations are available on the FRBNY website at www.newyorkfed.org/markets/omo/dmm/temp.cfm. The outstanding amounts of reverse repos are reported weekly in tables 1, 2, 8, and 9 of the H.4.1 statistical release. Liquidity Arrangements with Foreign Central Banks Recent Developments ‰ Amounts outstanding under the dollar liquidity swap arrangements remained at zero in July 2011. ‰ On August 11, 2011, the Swiss National Bank drew on its U.S. dollar liquidity swap arrangement in the amount of $200 million. Background Because of the global character of bank funding markets, the Federal Reserve has at times coordinated with other central banks to provide liquidity. During the financial crisis, the Federal Reserve entered into agreements to establish temporary reciprocal currency arrangements (central bank liquidity swap lines) with a number of foreign central banks (FCBs). Two types of temporary swap lines were established: U.S. dollar liquidity lines and foreign currency liquidity lines. These temporary arrangements expired on February 1, 2010. However, in May 2010, temporary U.S. dollar liquidity swap lines were re-established with certain FCBs in order to address the re-emergence of strains in global U.S. dollar short-term funding markets. In December 2010, the FOMC authorized an extension of the arrangements through August 1, 2011. In June 2011, the FOMC authorized another extension of the arrangements through August 1, 2012. The FRBNY operates the swap lines under the authority granted under Section 14 of the Federal Reserve Act and in compliance with authorizations, policies, and procedures established by the FOMC. 8 Credit and Liquidity Programs and the Balance Sheet Table 3.

Dollar Liquidity Swaps On December 12, 2007, the FOMC announced that it had authorized dollar liquidity swap lines with the European Central Bank and the Swiss National Bank to provide liquidity in U.S. dollars to overseas markets. Subsequently, the FOMC authorized dollar liquidity swap lines between the Federal Reserve and each of the following FCBs: the Reserve Bank of Australia, the Banco Central do Brasil, the Bank of Canada, the Bank of Japan, Danmarks Nationalbank, the Bank of England, the European Central Bank, the Bank of Korea, the Banco de Mexico, the Reserve Bank of New Zealand, Norges Bank, the Monetary Authority of Singapore, Sveriges Riksbank, and the Swiss National Bank. These temporary dollar liquidity swap arrangements expired on February 1, 2010. In May 2010, the FOMC re-authorized dollar liquidity swap lines with the Bank of Canada, the Bank of England, the European Central Bank, the Bank of Japan, and the Swiss National Bank through January 2011. Subsequently, these arrangements were first extended through August 1, 2011, and then through August 1, 2012. Swaps under these lines consist of two transactions. When an FCB draws on its swap line with the FRBNY, the FCB sells a specified amount of its currency to the FRBNY in exchange for dollars at the prevailing market exchange rate. The FRBNY holds the foreign currency in an account at the FCB. The dollars that the FRBNY provides are then deposited in an account that the FCB maintains at the FRBNY. At the same time, the FRBNY and the FCB enter into a binding agreement for a second transaction that obligates the FCB to buy back its currency on a specified future date at the same exchange rate. The second transaction unwinds the first at the same exchange rate used in the initial transaction; as a result, the recorded value of the for- eign currency amounts is not affected by changes in the market exchange rate. At the conclusion of the second transaction, the FCB compensates the FRBNY at a market-based interest rate. When the FCB lends the dollars it obtained by drawing on its swap line to institutions in its jurisdiction, the dollars are transferred from the FCB account at the FRBNY to the account of the bank that the borrowing institution uses to clear its dollar transactions. The FCB is obligated to return the dollars to the FRBNY under the terms of the agreement, and the FRBNY is not a counterparty to the loan extended by the FCB. The FCB bears the credit risk associated with the loans it makes to institutions in its jurisdiction. The foreign currency that the Federal Reserve acquires in these transactions is recorded as an asset on the Federal Reserve’s balance sheet. In tables 1, 8, and 9 of the weekly H.4.1 statistical release, the dollar value of amounts that the FCBs have drawn but not yet repaid is reported in the line entitled “Central bank liquidity swaps.” Dollar liquidity swaps have maturities ranging from overnight to three months. Table 2 of the H.4.1 statistical release reports the maturity distribution of the outstanding dollar liquidity swaps. Detailed information about drawings on the swap lines by the participating FCBs is presented on the FRBNY’s website at www.newyorkfed.org/markets/fxswap. Foreign-Currency Liquidity Swap Lines On April 6, 2009, the FOMC announced foreigncurrency liquidity swap lines with the Bank of England, the European Central Bank, the Bank of Japan, and the Swiss National Bank. These lines were designed to provide the Federal Reserve with the capacity to offer liquidity to U.S. institutions in foreign currency should a need arise. These lines mirrored the existing dollar liquidity swap lines, which provided FCBs with the capacity to offer U.S. dollar liquidity to financial institutions in their jurisdictions. Foreign-currency swap lines provided the Federal Reserve with the ability to address financial strains by providing foreign currency-denominated liquidity to U.S. institutions in amounts of up to £30 billion (sterling), €80 billion (euro), ¥10 trillion (yen), and CHF 40 billion (Swiss francs). The Federal Reserve did not draw on these swap lines, and they expired on February 1, 2010. 9 Lending Facilities to Support Overall Market Liquidity Lending to Depository Institutions Recent Developments ‰ Credit provided to depository institutions through the discount window remains generally around the levels seen prior to 2007. As presented in table 6, the lendable value of collateral pledged by depository institutions with discount window loans outstanding on July 27, 2011, was approximately $1 billion; discount window credit outstanding on that date amounted to $86 million. Background The discount window helps to relieve liquidity strains for individual depository institutions and for the banking system as a whole by providing a source of funding in times of need. Much of the statutory framework that governs lending to depository institutions is contained in Section 10B of the Federal Reserve Act, as amended. The general policies that govern discount window lending are set forth in the Federal Reserve Board’s Regulation A. Depository institutions have, since 2003, had access to three types of discount window credit: primary credit, secondary credit, and seasonal credit. Primary credit is available to depository institutions in generally sound financial condition with few administrative requirements. Secondary credit may be provided to depository institutions that do not qualify for primary credit, subject to review by the lending Reserve Bank. Seasonal credit provides short-term funds to smaller depository institutions that experience regular seasonal swings in loans and deposits. On August 17, 2007, in order to promote orderly market functioning, the Federal Reserve narrowed the spread between the primary credit rate (generally referred to as the discount rate) and the FOMC’s target federal funds rate to 50 basis points and began to allow the provision of primary credit for terms as long as 30 days. On March 16, 2008, the Federal Reserve further narrowed the spread between the Table 4.

On November 17, 2009, in response to improved financial conditions, the Federal Reserve announced that the maximum maturity on primary credit loans would be reduced to 28 days effective January 14, 2010. On February 18, 2010, the Federal Reserve increased the spread between the primary credit rate and the top of the target range for the federal funds rate to 50 basis points, effective February 19, 2010. The Federal Reserve also announced that, effective March 18, 2010, the typical maximum maturity of primary credit loans would be shortened to overnight. These changes represented further normalization of the Federal Reserve’s lending facilities and did not signal any change in the outlook for the economy or for monetary policy. On August 6, 2010, the Federal Reserve announced changes to its practices for disclosure of discount 10 Credit and Liquidity Programs and the Balance Sheet Table 5.

The rating system relies mostly on information from each institution’s primary supervisor, including CAMELS ratings, to identify potentially problematic institutions and classify them according to the severity of the risk they pose to the Federal Reserve.2 Having identified institutions that pose a higher risk, the Federal Reserve then puts in place a standard set of risk controls that become increasingly stringent as the risk posed by an institution grows; individual Reserve Banks may implement additional risk controls to further mitigate risk if they deem it necessary. Collateral window lending information in accordance with the provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act. For discount window loans extended to depository institutions on or after July 21, 2010, the Federal Reserve will publicly disclose certain information about the transaction approximately two years after the loan is extended. The disclosure will include the name and identifying details of the depository institution, the amount borrowed, the interest rate paid, and information identifying the types and amount of collateral pledged. More detail on these changes is reported on the Federal Reserve’s Discount Window website at www.frbdiscountwindow.org. In extending credit to depository institutions, the Federal Reserve closely monitors the financial condition of borrowers. Monitoring the financial condition of depository institutions is a four-step process designed to minimize the risk of loss to the Federal Reserve posed by weak or failing depository institutions. The first step is monitoring, on an ongoing basis, the safety and soundness of all depository institutions that access or may access the discount window and the payment services provided by the Federal Reserve. The second step is identifying institutions whose condition, characteristics, or affiliation would present higher-than-acceptable risk to the Federal Reserve in the absence of controls on their access to Federal Reserve lending facilities and other Federal Reserve services. The third step is communicating—to staff within the Federal Reserve System and to other supervisory agencies, if and when necessary—relevant information about those institutions identified as posing higher risk. The fourth step is implementing appropriate measures to mitigate the risks posed by such entities. At the heart of the condition-monitoring process is an internal rating system that provides a framework All extensions of discount window credit by the Federal Reserve must be secured to the satisfaction of the lending Reserve Bank by “acceptable collateral.” Assets accepted as collateral are assigned a lendable value deemed appropriate by the Reserve Bank; lendable value is determined as the market price of the asset, less a haircut. When a market price is not available, a haircut may be applied to the outstanding balance or a valuation based on an asset’s cash flow. Haircuts reflect credit risk and, for traded assets, the historical volatility of the asset’s price and the liquidity of the market in which the asset is traded; the Federal Reserve’s haircuts are generally in line with typical market practice. The Federal Reserve applies larger haircuts, and thus assigns lower lendable values, to assets for which no market price is available relative to comparable assets for which a market price is available. A borrower may be required to pledge additional collateral if its financial condition weakens. Collateral is pledged by depository institutions under the terms and conditions specified in the Federal Reserve Banks’ standard lending agreement, Operating Circular No. 10, available at www.frbservices.org/files/regulations/pdf/ operating_circular_10.pdf. Discount window loans are generally made with recourse to the borrower beyond the pledged collateral. Nonetheless, collateral plays an important role in mitigating the credit risk associated with these extensions of credit. The Federal Reserve generally accepts as collateral for discount window loans any assets that meet regulatory standards for sound asset 2 CAMELS (Capital, Assets, Management, Earnings, Liquidity, and Sensitivity) is a rating system employed by banking regulators to assess the soundness of commercial banks and thrifts. Similar rating systems are used for other types of depository institutions. August 2011 11 Table 6. Lendable value of collateral pledged by borrowing depository institutions Table 7.

This category of assets includes most performing loans and most investment-grade securities, although for some types of securities (including commercial mortgage-backed securities, collateralized debt obligations, collateralized loan obligations, and certain non-dollar-denominated foreign securities) only AAA-rated securities are accepted. An institution may not pledge as collateral any instruments that the institution or its affiliates have issued. To ensure that they can borrow from the Federal Reserve should the need arise, many depository institutions that do not have an outstanding discount window loan nevertheless routinely pledge collateral. The Federal Reserve periodically reviews its collateral valuation practices. The most recent changes to the lending margins on discount window collateral took effect on October 19, 2009, and reflected the results of a broad-based review, which began before the financial crisis, of methodology and data sources. For more information on collateral margins, refer to the Discount Window and Payments System Risk public website, www.frbdiscountwindow.org.

Term Asset-Backed Securities Loan Facility Recent Developments ‰ As of July 27, 2011, the amount of TALF loans outstanding and number of borrowers had declined from their levels in June 2011. Voluntary prepayments of TALF loans by borrowers and remittances of principal on TALF collateral (which are used to reduce the principal amount of the TALF loan in proportion to the haircut applied to the loan) contributed to the decline in loans outstanding; voluntary prepayments by borrowers were also responsible for the decline in the number of TALF borrowers.

Background On November 25, 2008, the Federal Reserve announced the creation of the TALF under the authority of Section 13(3) of the Federal Reserve Act. The TALF is a funding facility under which the FRBNY was authorized to extend up to $200 billion of credit to holders of eligible asset-backed securities (ABS).3 The TALF was intended to assist financial markets in accommodating the credit needs of consumers and businesses of all sizes by facilitating the issuance of ABS collateralized by a variety of consumer and business loans; it was also intended to improve market conditions for ABS more generally. TALF loans backed by commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS) or by ABS backed by government guaranteed loans have maturities of up to five years; all other TALF loans have three-year maturities. Using funds authorized under the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) of the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008, the Treasury committed to provide $20 billion in credit protection to the FRBNY in connection with the TALF to support the $200 billion of authorized lending value under the program. This commitment was reduced to $4.3 billion in July 2010 to reflect the fact that only $43 billion of TALF loans were outstanding when the program was closed to new lending. Eligible collateral for TALF loans included U.S. dollar-denominated ABS backed by student loans, auto loans, credit card loans, equipment loans, floor3 For additional information on the TALF, refer to www.federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy/bst_lendingother.htm. plan loans, insurance premium finance loans, loans guaranteed by the Small Business Administration (SBA), residential mortgage servicing advances, or commercial mortgages. At the time a TALF loan was extended, all eligible collateral was required to have a credit rating in the highest investment-grade rating category from two or more eligible nationally recognized statistical rating organizations (NRSROs) and could not have a credit rating below the highest investment-grade rating category from an eligible NRSRO. Certain collateral also had to pass an internal risk assessment by the FRBNY. Additionally, all or substantially all of the credit exposures underlying eligible ABS were required to be exposures to U.S.-domiciled obligors or with respect to real property located in the United States or its territories. Except for ABS for which the underlying credit exposures are SBA-guaranteed loans, eligible newly issued ABS must have been issued on or after January 1, 2009. Eligible legacy CMBS must have been issued before January 1, 2009, must be senior in payment priority to all other interests in the underlying pool of commercial mortgages, and must meet certain other criteria designed to protect the Federal Reserve and the Treasury from credit risk. Collateral would not be accepted from a particular borrower if the collateral was backed by loans originated or securitized by that borrower or its affiliate except in very limited circumstances. The loans provided through the TALF were designed to be limited in recourse to the collateral, generally allowing borrowers the option of surrendering the collateral to the FRBNY in full satisfaction of the TALF loan. The FRBNY’s loan is secured by the ABS collateral, with the FRBNY lending an amount equal to the market value of the ABS, less a haircut. The haircut is a buffer which protects the FRBNY against a decline in the collateral’s value. The Federal Reserve set initial haircuts for each type of eligible collateral to reflect an assessment of the riskiness and maturity of the various types of eligible ABS. Breakdowns of TALF collateral by underlying loan type and credit rating are presented in tables 10 and 11, respectively. Consistent with previous announcements, the Federal Reserve closed the TALF for new loan extensions against newly issued CMBS on June 30, 2010, and for new loans against all other types of collateral on March 31, 2010. All TALF loans were extended by August 2011 Table 10. TALF collateral by underlying loan type Table 11.

TALF LLC TALF LLC was formed to purchase and manage any ABS that might be surrendered by a TALF borrower or otherwise claimed by the FRBNY in connection with its enforcement rights to the TALF collateral. In certain limited circumstances, TALF LLC may also purchase TALF program loans from the FRBNY.

Eligible ABS collateral for the TALF was required to have a credit rating in the highest investment-grade rating category from at least two eligible NRSROs and could not have a credit rating below the highest investment-grade rating category from an eligible NRSRO. When pledged collateral is downgraded below the highest investment-grade rating, existing loans against the collateral remain outstanding. 1 TALF LLC has committed to purchase, for a fee, all such assets at a price equal to the TALF loan, plus accrued but unpaid interest. Purchases of these securities are funded first through the fees received by TALF LLC and any interest TALF LLC has earned on its investments. In the event that such funding proves insufficient, the TARP will provide additional subordinated debt funding to TALF LLC to finance up to $4.3 billion of asset purchases. Subsequently, the FRBNY will finance any additional purchases of securities by providing senior debt funding to TALF LLC. Thus, the TARP funds provide credit protection to the FRBNY. Financial information on TALF LLC is reported weekly in tables 1, 2, 7, 8, and 9 of the H.4.1 statistical release. As of July 27, 2011, TALF LLC had purchased no assets from the FRBNY. 14 Credit and Liquidity Programs and the Balance Sheet Table 12A.

For the second quarter of 2011, repayments totaled approximately $7.5 billion, as presented in tables 14, 17, and 20. During the financial crisis, the Federal Reserve extended credit to certain specific institutions in order to avert disorderly failures that could result in severe dislocations and strains for the financial system as a whole and harm the U.S. economy. In certain other cases, the Federal Reserve committed to extend credit, if necessary, to support important financial firms. Table 13.

August 2011 Background In March 2008, the FRBNY and JPMorgan Chase & Co. (JPMC) entered into an arrangement related to financing provided by the FRBNY to facilitate the acquisition by JPMC of The Bear Stearns Companies Inc. (Bear Stearns). In connection with the transaction, the Federal Reserve Board authorized the FRBNY, under Section 13(3) of the Federal Reserve Act, to extend credit to a Delaware limited liability company, Maiden Lane LLC, to partially fund the purchase of a portfolio of mortgage-related securities, residential and commercial mortgage loans, and associated hedges from Bear Stearns. In the second quarter of 2008, the FRBNY extended credit to Maiden Lane LLC. The LLC manages its assets through time to maximize the repayment of credit extended to the LLC and to minimize disruption to the financial markets. 17 The two-year accumulation period that followed the closing date for Maiden Lane LLC ended on June 26, 2010. Consistent with the terms of the Maiden Lane LLC transaction, the distribution of the proceeds realized on the asset portfolio held by Maiden Lane LLC, after payment of certain fees and expenses, will occur on a monthly basis going forward unless otherwise directed by the Federal Reserve.

AIG, Maiden Lane II LLC, and Maiden Lane III LLC Recent Developments ‰ The repayments of the senior loans extended by the FRBNY to Maiden Lane II LLC and Maiden Lane III LLC totaled $1.1 billion and $0.8 billion, respectively, during the period from June 30 to July 27, 2011. Background On September 16, 2008, the Federal Reserve, with the full support of the Treasury, announced that it would lend to American International Group, Inc. (AIG) to prevent a disorderly failure of this systemically important firm, protect the financial system and the broader economy, and provide the company time to restructure its operations in an orderly manner. At that time, the Federal Reserve, under the authority of Section 13(3) of the Federal Reserve Act, authorized the FRBNY to extend an $85 billion line of credit (the “revolving credit facility”) to AIG. The Federal Reserve and the Treasury subsequently restructured the government’s financial support to AIG as follows: ‰ On November 10, 2008, the Federal Reserve and the Treasury announced a restructuring as part of which the line of credit extended to AIG was reduced from $85 billion to $60 billion, and which included Federal Reserve loans to two new LLCs, Maiden Lane II LLC and Maiden Lane III LLC. (On October 8, 2008, the Board of Governors authorized the FRBNY to extend credit under a securities borrowing facility to certain AIG subsidiaries. This arrangement was discontinued after the establishment of the Maiden Lane II facility.) More detail on these LLCs is reported below. Additional information is included in tables 5 and 6 of the H.4.1 statistical release. ‰ On March 2, 2009, the Federal Reserve and Treasury announced a further restructuring of the government’s assistance to AIG, designed to enhance the company’s capital and liquidity in order to facilitate the orderly completion of the company’s global divestiture program. As part of this restructuring, the FRBNY received preferred interests in two special purpose vehicles (SPVs), AIA Aurora LLC and ALICO Holdings LLC, (the “SPV Preferred Interests”) in exchange for an equivalent reduction of the amount of debt then outstanding on the revolving credit facility. Additional information on the March 2009 restructuring is available at www.federalreserve.gov/newsevents/ press/other/20090302a.htm. On September 30, 2010, AIG announced a comprehensive recapitalization plan (the “Recapitalization”) designed to restructure the assistance provided by the U.S. government to the company. The company completed the Recapitalization on January 14, 2011. At closing of the Recapitalization, AIG repaid in full the amount then outstanding under the revolving credit facility established by the FRBNY, including all accrued interest and fees. The FRBNY also received the full amount, including all accrued dividends, of the SPV Preferred Interests. AIG redeemed a portion of the FRBNY’s SPV Preferred Interests with cash proceeds from asset dispositions, and purchased the remaining SPV Preferred Interests, valued at approximately $20 billion, from the FRBNY though a draw on the Treasury’s Series F preferred stock commitment. AIG then transferred the SPV Preferred Interests purchased from the FRBNY to the Treasury as consideration for the draw on the available Series F funds. At closing, the collateral backing the remaining SPV Preferred Interests received by the Treasury had an estimated value of more than $25 billion. A comprehensive overview of financial assistance provided to AIG is available online at www.federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy/ bst_supportspecific.htm. Maiden Lane II LLC Pursuant to authority granted by the Federal Reserve Board under Section 13(3) of the Federal Reserve Act, on December 12, 2008, the FRBNY lent approximately $19.5 billion to a newly formed Delaware limited liability company, Maiden Lane II LLC, August 2011 Table 17.

As part of the asset purchase agreement, AIG subsidiaries were entitled to receive from Maiden Lane II LLC a fixed deferred purchase price plus interest on the amount. This obligation is subordinated to the senior loan extended by the FRBNY, and it reduced the amount paid by Maiden Lane II LLC for the assets by a corresponding amount. 1 Repayment amount for the period includes $3.7 billion of proceeds received from asset sales. Due to the cash flow cut off date used to calculate the cash available for the repayment, the portion of the repayment amount comprised of sale proceeds may not reconcile to the total sale proceeds reported each month. Proceeds received after the cut off date are applied to the loan in the next monthly payment cycle.

On March 30, 2011, the Federal Reserve announced that the FRBNY, through its investment manager, BlackRock Solutions, will dispose of the securities in the ML II portfolio individually and in segments through a competitive sales process over time as market conditions warrant. On June 29, 2011, BlackRock Solutions announced to broker-dealers that, given prevailing market conditions for non-agency RMBS, it does not anticipate any sales of bonds in the near term or until such time as the FRBNY deems it appropriate. At such time, the sale of securities from the Maiden Lane II LLC portfolio may resume.

Net earnings from the portfolio were approximately $43.1 billion; most of the earnings were attributable to interest income on Treasury securities and federal agency and GSE MBS. ‰ Interest earned from Federal Reserve lending programs was approximately $0.6 billion during the first half of 2011, as presented in table 25; interest earned on credit extended to AIG and loans made by the TALF accounted for most of the total. ‰ Net income (loss) reported on the consolidated financial statements of the FRBNY, including changes in valuation, for the Maiden Lane, Maiden Lane II, and Maiden Lane III LLCs, was approximately $1.1 billion, $(0.2) billion, and $0.2 billion, respectively, during the first half of 2011. ‰ After providing for the payment of dividends and reserving an amount necessary to equate surplus with capital paid in, distributions to the Treasury as interest on Federal Reserve notes totaled $40.5 billion during the first half of 2011, as presented in table 23. Background The Federal Reserve Banks prepare annual financial statements reflecting balances as of December 31, and income and expenses for the year then ended. The Federal Reserve Bank financial statements also include the accounts and results of operations of several LLCs that have been consolidated with the FRBNY (the “consolidated LLCs”). The Board of Governors, the Federal Reserve Banks, and the consolidated LLCs are all subject to several levels of audit and review. The Reserve Banks’ financial statements and those of the consolidated LLC entities are audited annually by an independent auditing firm retained by the Board of Governors. To ensure auditor independence, the Board requires that the external auditor be independent in all matters relating to the audit. Specifically, the external auditor may not perform services for the Reserve Banks or others that would place it in a position of auditing its own work, making management decisions on behalf of the Reserve Banks, or in any other way impairing its audit independence. In addition, the Reserve Banks, including the consolidated LLCs, are subject to oversight by the Board. The Board of Governors’ financial statements are audited annually by an independent auditing firm retained by the Board’s Office of Inspector General (OIG). The audit firm also provides a report on compliance and on internal control over financial reporting in accordance with government auditing standards. The OIG also conducts audits, reviews, and investigations relating to the Board’s programs and operations as well as of Board functions delegated to the Reserve Banks. Audited annual financial statements for the Reserve Banks and Board of Governors are available at www.federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy/bst_ fedfinancials.htm. In this report, the Federal Reserve prepares unaudited quarterly updates to tables included in the Federal Reserve Board’s Annual Report, available at www.federalreserve.gov/ publications/annual-report/default.htm. As required by the Dodd-Frank Act, the Federal Reserve posted an audit webpage on December 3, 2010. This page will be updated as reports and other information become available. More information can be found at www.federalreserve.gov/newsevents/reform_audit.htm.

Recording all TALF loans at fair value, rather than at the remaining principal amount outstanding, results in consistent accounting treatment among all TALF-related transactions and provides the most appropriate presentation of the TALF program in the financial statements by matching the change in fair value of TALF loans, the related put agreement with the consolidated TALF LLC, and the valuation of the other beneficial interests in TALF LLC. 2 Represents the recognition of benefit plan deferred actuarial gains and losses and prior service costs. 3 The Board of Governors requires each Reserve Bank to distribute any remaining net earnings to the U.S. Treasury as interest on Federal Reserve notes, after providing for the payment of dividends and reservation of an amount necessary to equate surplus with capital paid-in. These distributions are made weekly based on estimated net earnings for the preceding week. The amount of each Bank’s weekly distribution to the U.S. Treasury is affected by significant losses and increases in capital paid-in at a Reserve Bank, and requires that the Reserve Bank retain net earnings until the surplus is equal to the capital paid-in. The distributions to the U.S. Treasury are reported on an accrual basis; actual payments to the U.S. Treasury during the period from January 1, 2011, through June 30, 2011, were $46.2 billion. August 2011 grams, and the variable interest entities (VIEs)— Maiden Lane, Maiden Lane II, and Maiden Lane III LLCs; and TALF LLC—for the period from January 1, 2011, to June 30, 2011. These tables are updated quarterly. SOMA Financial Summary Table 24 shows the Federal Reserve’s average daily balance of assets and liabilities in the SOMA portfolio for the period from January 1, 2011, though June 30, 2011, the related interest income and expense, and the realized and unrealized gains and losses for the year to date. Treasury securities, GSE debt securities, as well as federal agency and GSE MBS making up the SOMA portfolio, are recorded at amortized cost on a settlement-date basis, rather than using a fair value presentation. The amortized cost presentation more appropriately reflects the Reserve Banks’ purpose for holding these securities given the Federal Reserve’s unique responsibility to conduct monetary policy. Although the fair value of security holdings can be substantially greater than or less than the recorded value at any point in time, these unrealized gains or losses have no effect on the ability of the Reserve Banks to meet their financial obligations and responsibilities. As of June 30, 2011, the fair value of the Treasury securities held in the SOMA, excluding accrued interest, was $1,750 billion (amortized cost was $1,685 billion); the fair value of the GSE debt, excluding accrued interest, was $126 billion (amortized cost was $121 billion); the fair value of the federal agency and GSE MBS, excluding accrued interest, was $949 billion (amortized cost was $920 billion); and the fair value of investments denominated in foreign currencies was $27 billion (amortized cost was $27 billion). Fair value was determined by reference to quoted prices for identical securities, except for MBS, for which market values are determined using a model-based approach based on observable inputs for similar securities. The FRBNY conducts purchases and sales of U.S. government securities under authorization and direction from the FOMC. The FRBNY buys and sells securities at market prices from securities dealers and foreign and international account holders. The FOMC has also authorized the FRBNY to purchase and sell U.S. government securities under agreements to resell or repurchase such securities (commonly referred to as repurchase and reverse repurchase transactions). 25 The SOMA holds foreign currency deposits and foreign government debt instruments denominated in foreign currencies with foreign central banks and the Bank for International Settlements. Central bank liquidity swaps are the foreign currencies that the Federal Reserve acquires and records as an asset (excluding accrued interest) on the Federal Reserve’s balance sheet. On January 5, 2009, the Federal Reserve began purchasing MBS guaranteed by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and Ginnie Mae. Transactions in MBS are recorded on settlement dates, which can extend several months into the future. MBS dollar roll transactions, which consist of a purchase or sale of TBA MBS combined with an agreement to sell or purchase TBA MBS on a specified future date, may generate realized gains and losses. On June 28, 2010, the Federal Reserve began entering into coupon swaps, which are trades with a single counterparty in which the Federal Reserve agrees to simultaneously sell TBA MBS in one coupon and to buy an equal face value of TBA MBS in a different coupon. MBS dollar roll transactions, and coupon swaps are recorded on settlement date and may generate realized gains and losses. Loan Programs Financial Summary Table 25 summarizes the average daily loan balances and interest income of the Federal Reserve during the first half of 2011. The most significant loan balance is the TALF, which was established in 2009. As noted earlier in this report, during 2008 the Federal Reserve established several lending facilities under authority of Section 13(3) of the Federal Reserve Act. Many of these lending facilities have since been closed. The Reserve Banks recorded amounts funded under these facilities as loans. Interest income from these loan facilities was about $0.6 billion during the first half of 2011. All loans must be fully collateralized to the satisfaction of the lending Reserve Bank, with an appropriate haircut applied to the collateral. At June 30, 2011, no loans were impaired, and an allowance for loan losses was not required.

Income on TALF loans includes interest of $164 million and loss on the valuation of loans of $(52) million. 1 2 3 4 5 TALF LLC, Maiden Lane, Maiden Lane II, and Maiden Lane III holdings are recorded at fair value. Includes accrued interest. The other beneficial interest holder related to TALF LLC is the Treasury. JPMC is the beneficial interest holder for Maiden Lane LLC. AIG is the beneficial interest holder for Maiden Lane II and Maiden Lane III LLCs. Interest income is recorded when earned, and it includes amortization of premiums, accretion of discounts, and paydown gains and losses. Interest expense recorded by each VIE on the loans extended by the FRBNY is eliminated when the VIEs are consolidated in the FRBNY’s financial statements and, as a result, the consolidated VIEs’ net income (loss) recorded by the FRBNY is increased by this amount. FRBNY is the sole and managing member of TALF LLC and the primary beneficiary of the Maiden Lane LLCs. FRBNY. As a consequence of the consolidation, the extensions of credit from the FRBNY to the LLCs are eliminated. Maiden Lane LLC, Maiden Lane II LLC, Maiden Lane III LLC, and TALF LLC holdings are recorded at fair value, which reflects an estimate of the price that would be received upon selling an asset if the transaction were to be conducted in an orderly market on the measurement date. Consistent with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the assets and liabilities of these LLCs have been consolidated with the assets and liabilities of the “Net portfolio assets available” represents the net assets available to beneficiaries of the consolidated VIEs and for repayment of loans extended by the FRBNY. “Net income (loss) allocated to FRBNY” represents the allocation of the change in net assets and liabilities of the consolidated VIEs available for repayment of the loans extended by the FRBNY and other beneficiaries of the consolidated VIEs. The differences between the fair value of the net assets 28 Credit and Liquidity Programs and the Balance Sheet available and the face value of the loans (including accrued interest) are indicative of gains or losses that would have been incurred by the beneficiaries if the assets had been fully liquidated at prices equal to the fair value as of June 30, 2011. 29 Appendix A Additional Information Provided Pursuant to Section 129 of the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 In light of improved functioning of financial markets, on February 1, 2010, the Federal Reserve closed the Term Securities Lending Facility (TSLF), Primary Dealer Credit Facility (PDCF), the Commercial Paper Funding Facility (CPFF), and the AssetBacked Commercial Paper Money Market Mutual Fund Liquidity Facility (AMLF). As of that date, all loans under the TSLF, PDCF, and AMLF had been repaid in full, with interest, in accordance with the terms of each facility, and each of the facilities resulted in no loss to the Federal Reserve or taxpayers. All remaining commercial paper holdings of the CPFF matured on April 26, 2010, and the CPFF LLC was dissolved on August 30, 2010, following the payment of expenses and the termination or expiration of existing contractual agreements. The CPFF did not result in any loss to the Federal Reserve or taxpayers. AIG, on September 30, 2010, announced a comprehensive recapitalization plan designed to restructure the assistance provided by the U.S. government to the company. The company completed the Recapitalization on January 14, 2011. At closing of the Recapitalization, AIG repaid in full the amount then outstanding under the revolving credit facility established by the FRBNY, including all accrued interest and fees. The FRBNY also received the full amount, including all accrued dividends, of the SPV Preferred Interests in AIA Aurora LLC and ALICO Holdings LLC, two SPVs formed as part of the March 2009 restructuring of the U.S. government’s assistance. The FRBNY received the SPV Preferred Interests as part of the March 2009 restructuring in exchange for an equivalent reduction of the amount of debt then outstanding on the revolving credit facility. As part of the Recapitalization, AIG redeemed a portion of the FRBNY’s SPV Preferred Interests with cash proceeds from asset dispositions, and purchased the remaining SPV Preferred Interests, valued at approximately $20 billion, from the FRBNY through a draw on the Treasury’s Series F preferred stock commitment. AIG then transferred the SPV Preferred Interests purchased from the FRBNY to the Treasury as consideration for the draw on the available Series F funds. At the time of the closing, the collateral backing the remaining SPV Preferred Interests received by the Treasury had an estimated value of more than $25 billion. The revolving credit facility, and the SPV Preferred Interests held by the FRBNY in connection with the revolving credit facility, did not result in any loss to the Federal Reserve or taxpayers. For the reasons discussed below, the Board does not anticipate that the Federal Reserve or taxpayers will incur any net loss on the loans provided by the FRBNY under the TALF or to Maiden Lane LLC, Maiden Lane II LLC, or Maiden Lane III LLC (collectively, the “Maiden Lane facilities”). In making these assessments, the Board has considered, among other things, the terms and conditions governing the relevant facility and the type, nature, and value of the current collateral or other security arrangements associated with the facility. As discussed earlier in this report, the Federal Reserve has established various terms and conditions governing the types of collateral that may be pledged in support of a loan under a facility in order to mitigate the risk of loss. In the case of the Maiden Lane facilities, the Board also has considered analyses of the projected returns on the portfolio holdings of the respective SPV (the assets of which serve as collateral for the loan(s) extended to the SPV) conducted by the FRBNY or its advisors in connection with the most recent quarterly revaluation of the assets of each SPV. TALF Under the TALF, the FRBNY made loans on a collateralized basis to holders of eligible ABS and CMBS. The potential for the Federal Reserve or tax- 30 Credit and Liquidity Programs and the Balance Sheet payers to incur any net loss on the TALF loans extended by the FRBNY to the holders of ABS and CMBS is mitigated by the quality of the collateral, the risk assessment performed by the FRBNY on all pledged collateral, and the margin by which the value of the collateral exceeds the amount of the loan (the haircut). Potential losses to the Federal Reserve also are mitigated by the portion of interest on the TALF loans to borrowers transferred to TALF LLC and by the credit protection provided by the Treasury under the TARP (initially $20 billion and subsequently reduced to $4.3 billion in light of the $43 billion in TALF loans outstanding when the TALF closed to new lending on June 30, 2010), both of which are available to TALF LLC to purchase any collateral received by the FRBNY from a borrower in lieu of repaying a TALF loan or foreclosed upon due to a default by the borrower. All TALF loans were extended by the FRBNY and will mature over the next several years, with all loans maturing no later than March 30, 2015. Loans to Maiden Lane LLC, Maiden Lane II LLC, and Maiden Lane III LLC The portfolio holdings of each of Maiden Lane LLC (Maiden Lane), Maiden Lane II LLC (ML II), and Maiden Lane III LLC (ML III) are revalued in accordance with GAAP as of the end of each quarter to reflect an estimate of the fair value of the assets on the measurement date. The fair value determined through these revaluations may fluctuate over time. In addition, the fair value of the portfolio holdings that is reported on the weekly H.4.1 statistical release reflects any accrued interest earnings, principal repayments, expense payments and, to the extent any may have occurred since the most recent measurement date, realized gains or losses. The fair values as of July 27, 2011—as shown in table 1 of this report and reported in the H.4.1 release for that date—are based on quarterly revaluations as of June 30, 2011. Because the collateral assets for the loans to Maiden Lane, ML II, and ML III are expected to generate cash proceeds and may be sold over time or held to maturity, the current reported fair values of the net portfolio holdings of Maiden Lane, ML II, and ML III do not reflect the amount of aggregate proceeds that the Federal Reserve could receive from the assets of the respective entity over the extended term of the loan to the entity. The extended terms of the loans provide an opportunity to dispose of the assets of each entity in an orderly manner over time and to collect interest on the assets held by the entity prior to their sale, other disposition, or maturity. Each of the loans extended to Maiden Lane, ML II, and ML III is current under the terms of the relevant loan agreement. In addition, JPMorgan Chase will absorb the first $1.15 billion of realized losses on the assets of Maiden Lane, should any occur. Similarly, certain U.S. insurance subsidiaries of AIG have a $1 billion subordinated position in ML II and an AIG affiliate has a $5 billion subordinated position in ML III, which are available to absorb first any loss that ultimately may be incurred by ML II or ML III, respectively. Moreover, under the terms of the agreements, the FRBNY is entitled to any residual cash flow generated by the collateral assets held by Maiden Lane after the loans made by the FRBNY and JPMorgan Chase are repaid, and five-sixths and two-thirds of any residual cash flow generated by the assets held by ML II and ML III, respectively, after the senior note of the FRBNY and the subordinate positions of AIG affiliates for these facilities are repaid. 31 Appendix B Information about Closed and Expired Credit and Liquidity Facilities and Programs During the financial crisis that emerged during the summer of 2007, the Federal Reserve took a number of important steps aimed at providing liquidity to important financial markets and institutions to support overall financial stability. Financial stability is a critical prerequisite for achieving sustainable economic growth, and all of the Federal Reserve’s actions were directed toward achieving the Federal Reserve’s statutory monetary policy objectives. Specifically, the Federal Reserve implemented a number of programs designed to support the liquidity of financial institutions and foster improved conditions in financial markets, and also extended credit to certain specific institutions and committed to extend credit to support systemically important financial firms. Broad-based facilities were open to participants that met clearly outlined eligibility criteria; participation in them reflected the severe market disruptions during the financial crisis and generally did not reflect participants’ financial weakness. As financial conditions have improved, the need for the broad-based facilities has dissipated, and most were closed in 2010. Specifically, on February 1, 2010, the Federal Reserve closed the AMLF, CPFF, the PDCF, and the TSLF. On April 26, 2010, all remaining commercial paper holdings of the CPFF matured, and the CPFF LLC was dissolved on August 30, 2010, following the payment of expenses and the termination or expiration of existing contractual agreements. Also in April 2010, the credit extended through the last Term Auction Facility (TAF) auction in March matured, marking the close of that facility. The temporary liquidity swap arrangements between the Federal Reserve and other FCBs also expired on February 1, 2010. However, the Federal Reserve re-established temporary liquidity swap arrangements with a group of FCBs in May 2010 and subse- quently authorized and extension of these arrangements in December 2010, enabling them to offer U.S. dollar liquidity to financial institutions in their jurisdictions through August 1, 2011. Information related to these arrangements can be found in the body of this report. As part of AIG’s Recapitalization plan, completed on January 14, 2011, AIG fully repaid the amount outstanding under the revolving credit facility, including all accrued interest and fees, extended by the Federal Reserve; the Federal Reserve received the full amount, including all accrued dividends, of the preferred interests in AIA Aurora LLC and ALICO Holdings LLC; and the Federal Reserve’s commitment to lend any further funds to the company was terminated. Additional information can be found in the body of this report. The Federal Reserve followed sound riskmanagement practices in administering all of these programs, incurred no credit losses on programs that have been wound down, and expects to incur no credit losses on the few remaining programs. The Federal Reserve is committed to transparency and has previously provided extensive aggregate information on its liquidity and credit programs in this and other weekly reports. Background information about the closed and expired facilities previously included in this appendix, as well as detailed information on individual loans under the TAF and PDCF, including the identities of borrowers and descriptions of pledged collateral; detailed information on the commercial paper purchased by the CPFF, including the identities of issuers and the issuers’ parents/sponsors; detailed information on AMLF loans, including the identities of money market mutual funds (MMMFs) that sold asset-backed commercial paper (ABCP) that was used as AMLF collateral; and information about the support provided to AIG, Citigroup, and Bank of America, is now available on the Federal Reserve’s public website. This detailed data can be downloaded in multiple formats at www.federalreserve.gov/ newsevents/reform_transaction.htm. Information 32 Credit and Liquidity Programs and the Balance Sheet about the single-tranche 28-day term repurchase agreements, announced on March 7, 2008, and conducted by the Federal Reserve between March and December 2008 are available at www.newyorkfed.org/ markets/fast_facts_stomo.html.

In addition, the Dodd-Frank Act modified the Federal Reserve’s authority to provide emergency liquidity to nondepository institutions under Section 13(3) of the Federal Reserve Act in light of other amendments that provide the U.S. government with new authority to resolve failing, systemically important nonbank financial institutions in an orderly manner. As provided by the Dodd-Frank Act, on December 1, 2010, the Federal Reserve posted to its public website detailed information about entities that received loans or other financial assistance under a Section 13(3) credit facility between December 1, 2007, and July 21, 2010, and about persons or entities that participated in the agency MBS purchase program, used foreign currency liquidity swap lines, or borrowed through the TAF during that time frame. This disclosure includes more than 21,000 individual credit and other transactions conducted to stabilize markets during the financial crisis, restore the flow of credit to American families and businesses, and support 6 The full text of the Dodd-Frank Act is available at www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/BILLS-111hr4173enr/pdf/BILLS111hr4173enr.pdf. economic recovery and job creation in the aftermath of the crisis. The Federal Reserve’s disclosure about these transactions is available at www.federalreserve.gov/ newsevents/reform_transaction.htm. As required by the Dodd-Frank Act, the Federal Reserve also posted an audit webpage, available at www.federalreserve.gov/newsevents/reform_audit.htm. This page will be updated as reports and other information become available. The Dodd-Frank Act also established a framework for the delayed disclosure of information on entities that, after July 21, 2010, received a loan from the discount window under Section 10B of the Federal Reserve Act or from a Section 13(3) facility, or participated in OMO transactions. Generally, this framework requires the Federal Reserve to publicly disclose certain information about these discount window borrowers and OMO counterparties approximately two years after the relevant loan or transaction; information about borrowers under future Section 13(3) facilities will be disclosed one year after the authorization for the facility is terminated. Information to be disclosed will include the names and identifying details of each borrower or counterparty, the amount borrowed, the interest rate paid, and information identifying the types and amounts of collateral pledged or assets transferred in connection with the borrowing or transaction. Going forward, any emergency lending programs and facilities authorized by the Federal Reserve under Section 13(3) of the Federal Reserve Act must have broad-based eligibility, and must be approved by the Secretary of the Treasury.
