FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK OF CINCINNATI

NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Background Information    

The Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati (the FHLB), a federally chartered corporation, is one of 11 District Federal Home Loan Banks (FHLBanks). The FHLBanks are government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs) that serve the public by enhancing the availability of credit for residential mortgages and targeted community development. The FHLB is regulated by the Federal Housing Finance Agency (Finance Agency).

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation

The accompanying interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make assumptions and estimates. These assumptions and estimates affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of income and expenses. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The interim financial statements presented are unaudited, but they include all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows for such periods. These financial statements do not include all disclosures associated with annual financial statements and accordingly should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes included in the FHLB's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Results for the three months ended March 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of operating results for the full year.

The FHLB presents certain financial instruments, including derivative instruments and securities purchased under agreements to resell, on a net basis when it has a legal right of offset and all other requirements for netting are met (collectively referred to as the netting requirements). For these instruments, the FHLB has elected to offset its asset and liability positions, as well as cash collateral received or pledged, when it has met the netting requirements. The FHLB did not have any offsetting liabilities related to its securities purchased under agreements to resell for the periods presented.

The net exposure for these financial instruments can change on a daily basis; therefore, there may be a delay between the time this exposure change is identified and additional collateral is requested, and the time this collateral is received or pledged. Likewise, there may be a delay for excess collateral to be returned. For derivative instruments that meet the requirements for netting, any excess cash collateral received or pledged is recognized as a derivative liability or derivative asset. Additional information regarding these agreements is provided in Note 6. Based on the fair value of the related collateral held, the securities purchased under agreements to resell were fully collateralized for the periods presented. For more information about the FHLB's investments in securities purchased under agreements to resell, see “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the FHLB's 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Subsequent Events

The FHLB has evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition or disclosure through the issuance of these financial statements and believes there have been no material subsequent events requiring additional disclosure or recognition in these financial statements.

Note 2 - Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Guidance

Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures. In March 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance that eliminates the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings by creditors that have adopted the current expected credit losses methodology while enhancing disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancings and restructurings by creditors made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. The guidance became effective for the FHLB for the interim and annual periods beginning on January 1, 2023. The adoption of this guidance affected the FHLB's disclosures, but did not have any effect on the FHLB's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

9

Fair Value Hedging - Portfolio Layer Method. In March 2022, the FASB issued guidance that expands fair value hedging under the current last-of-layer method by allowing multiple hedged layers of a single closed portfolio under the method. To reflect that expansion, the last-of-layer method is renamed the portfolio layer method. Additionally, among other things, this guidance (1) expands the scope of the portfolio layer method to include nonprepayable assets, (2) specifies eligible hedging instruments in a single-layer hedge, (3) provides additional guidance on the accounting for and disclosure of hedge basis adjustments under the portfolio layer method, and (4) specifies how hedge basis adjustments should be considered when determining credit losses for the assets included in the closed portfolio. The guidance became effective for the FHLB for the interim and annual periods beginning on January 1, 2023. The FHLB adopted this guidance as of January 1, 2023 and it did not have any effect on the FHLB's financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. The FHLB may elect the fair value hedging portfolio layer method in the future.

Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, as amended. In March 2020, the FASB issued temporary, optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. The new guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The transactions primarily include (1) contract modifications, (2) hedging relationships, and (3) sale and/or transfer of debt securities classified as held-to-maturity. This guidance became effective for the FHLB beginning March 12, 2020 and may be applied through December 31, 2024. The FHLB elected optional practical expedients specific to fair value hedging relationships and contract modifications, which did not have a material effect, and may elect additional optional expedients in the future.

Note 3 - Investments

The FHLB makes short-term investments in interest-bearing deposits, securities purchased under agreements to resell, and Federal funds sold and may make other investments in debt securities, which are classified as either trading, available-for-sale, or held-to-maturity.

Interest-Bearing Deposits, Securities Purchased under Agreements to Resell, and Federal Funds Sold

The FHLB invests in interest-bearing deposits, securities purchased under agreements to resell, and Federal funds sold to provide liquidity.

Interest-bearing deposits and Federal funds sold are generally transacted with counterparties that have received a credit rating of single-A or greater by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization (NRSRO). The FHLB’s internal ratings of these counterparties may differ from those issued by an NRSRO. Finance Agency regulations include a limit on the amount of unsecured credit the FHLB may extend to a counterparty. At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, all investments in interest-bearing deposits and Federal funds sold were repaid or expected to be repaid according to their respective contractual terms. No allowance for credit losses was recorded for these assets at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Carrying values of interest-bearing deposits and Federal funds sold exclude accrued interest receivable of (in thousands) $6,467 and $1,161 as of March 31, 2023, and $5,524 and $1,299 as of December 31, 2022.

Securities purchased under agreements to resell are short-term and are structured such that they are evaluated regularly to determine if the market value of the underlying securities decreases below the market value required as collateral (i.e., subject to collateral maintenance provisions). If so, the counterparty must place an equivalent amount of additional securities as collateral or remit an equivalent amount of cash, generally by the next business day. Based upon the collateral held as security and collateral maintenance provisions with counterparties, the FHLB determined that no allowance for credit losses was needed for its securities purchased under agreements to resell at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The carrying value of securities purchased under agreements to resell excludes accrued interest receivable of (in thousands) $1,356 and $232 as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Debt Securities

The FHLB invests in debt securities, which are classified as either trading, available-for-sale, or held-to-maturity. The FHLB is prohibited by Finance Agency regulations from purchasing certain higher-risk securities, such as equity securities and debt instruments that are not investment quality, other than certain investments targeted at low-income persons or communities and instruments that experienced credit deterioration after their purchase by the FHLB.

For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the FHLB did not sell any held-to-maturity securities.

Allowance for Credit Losses on Available-for-Sale and Held-to-Maturity Securities

The FHLB evaluates available-for-sale and held-to-maturity investment securities for credit losses on a quarterly basis. The FHLB’s available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities are U.S. Treasury obligations, GSE obligations, and MBS issued by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and Ginnie Mae that are backed by single-family or multi-family mortgage loans. The FHLB only purchases securities considered investment quality. At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, all available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities were rated single-A, or above, by an NRSRO, based on the lowest long-term credit rating for each security owned by the FHLB. The FHLB’s internal ratings of these securities may differ from those obtained from an NRSRO.

The FHLB evaluates individual available-for-sale securities for impairment by comparing the security’s fair value to its amortized cost. Impairment may exist when the fair value of the investment is less than its amortized cost (i.e., in an unrealized loss position). At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, certain available-for-sale securities were in an unrealized loss position. These losses are considered temporary as the FHLB expects to recover the entire amortized cost basis on these available-for-sale investment securities and does not intend to sell these securities nor considers it more likely than not that it will be required to sell these securities before the anticipated recovery of each security's remaining amortized cost basis. Further, the FHLB has not experienced any payment defaults on the instruments and all of these securities are highly-rated. In the case of U.S. obligations, they carry an explicit government guarantee. In the case of GSE securities, they are purchased under the assumption that the issuers' obligation to pay principal and interest on those securities will be honored, taking into account their status as GSEs. As a result, no allowance for credit losses was recorded on these available-for-sale securities at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

The FHLB evaluates its held-to-maturity securities for impairment on a collective, or pooled basis, unless an individual assessment is deemed necessary because the securities do not possess similar risk characteristics. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the FHLB had not established an allowance for credit loss on any held-to-maturity securities because the securities: (1) were all highly-rated and/or had short remaining terms to maturity, (2) had not experienced, nor did the FHLB expect, any payment default on the instruments, (3) in the case of U.S. obligations, the securities carry an explicit government

14

guarantee such that the FHLB considered the risk of nonpayment to be zero, and (4) in the case of GSE securities, they are purchased under an assumption that the issuers' obligation to pay principal and interest on those securities will be honored, taking into account their status as GSEs.

The following table presents Advance redemptions by contractual maturity, including index-amortizing Advances, which are presented according to their predetermined amortization schedules.

(1)Carrying values exclude accrued interest receivable of (in thousands) $306,090 and $149,255 as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

The FHLB offers certain fixed- and variable-rate Advances to members that may be prepaid on specified dates (call dates) without incurring prepayment or termination fees (callable Advances). Other Advances may only be prepaid subject to a prepayment fee paid to the FHLB that makes the FHLB financially indifferent to the prepayment of the Advance.

The FHLB also offers putable Advances. With a putable Advance, the FHLB effectively purchases put options from the member that allows the FHLB to terminate the Advance at predetermined dates. The FHLB normally would exercise its put option when interest rates increase relative to contractual rates.

Credit Risk Exposure and Security Terms

The FHLB manages its credit exposure to Advances through an integrated approach that includes establishing a credit limit for each borrower and ongoing review of each borrower's financial condition, coupled with collateral and lending policies to limit risk of loss while balancing borrowers' needs for a reliable source of funding.

In addition, the FHLB lends to eligible borrowers in accordance with federal law and Finance Agency regulations, which require the FHLB to obtain sufficient collateral to fully secure credit products. Under these regulations, collateral eligible to secure new or renewed Advances includes:

▪one-to-four family mortgage loans (delinquent for no more than 60 days) and multi-family mortgage loans (delinquent for no more than 30 days) and securities representing such mortgages;

▪loans and securities issued and insured, or guaranteed by the U.S. government or any U.S. government agency (for example, mortgage-backed securities issued or guaranteed by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, or Ginnie Mae);

▪cash or deposits in the FHLB;

▪certain other collateral that is real estate-related, provided that the collateral has a readily ascertainable value, can be reliably discounted to account for liquidation and other risks, can be liquidated in due course and the FHLB can perfect a security interest in it; and

▪certain qualifying securities representing undivided equity interests in eligible Advance collateral.

Residential mortgage loans are the principal form of collateral for Advances. The estimated value of the collateral required to secure each member's credit products is calculated by applying collateral discounts, or haircuts, to the value of the collateral. In addition, community financial institutions are eligible to utilize expanded statutory collateral provisions for small business and agribusiness loans. The FHLB's capital stock owned by its member borrowers is also pledged as collateral. Collateral arrangements and a member’s borrowing capacity vary based on the financial condition and performance of the institution, the types of collateral pledged and the overall quality of those assets. The FHLB can also require additional or substitute collateral to protect its security interest. The FHLB also has policies and procedures for validating the reasonableness of its collateral valuations and makes changes to its collateral guidelines, as necessary, based on current market conditions. In addition, collateral verifications and reviews are performed by the FHLB based on the risk profile of the borrower. Management of the FHLB believes that these policies effectively manage the FHLB's credit risk from Advances.

Members experiencing financial difficulties are subject to FHLB-performed “stress tests” to evaluate the impact of poorly performing assets on the member’s capital and loss reserve positions. Depending on the results of these tests, a member may be allowed to maintain pledged loan assets in its custody, may be required to deliver those loans into the custody of the FHLB or its agent, or may be required to provide details on those loans to facilitate an estimate of their fair value. The FHLB perfects its security interest in all pledged collateral. The FHLBank Act affords any security interest granted to the FHLB by a member priority over the claims or rights of any other party except for claims or rights of a third party that would otherwise be entitled

16

to priority under applicable law and that are held by a bona fide purchaser for value or by a secured party holding a prior perfected security interest.

Using a risk-based approach, the FHLB considers the payment status, collateralization levels, and borrower's financial condition to be indicators of credit quality for its credit products. At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the FHLB did not have any Advances that were past due, in non-accrual status or considered impaired. In addition, there were no modifications of Advances with borrowers experiencing financial difficulty during the three months ended March 31, 2023 or 2022. At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the FHLB had rights to collateral on a member-by-member basis with an estimated value in excess of its outstanding extensions of credit.

Based upon the collateral held as security, its credit extension and collateral policies and the repayment history on Advances, the FHLB did not expect any credit losses on Advances as of March 31, 2023 and, therefore, no allowance for credit losses on Advances was recorded. For the same reasons, the FHLB did not record any allowance for credit losses on Advances at December 31, 2022.

Credit Risk Exposure

The FHLB manages credit risk exposure for conventional mortgage loans primarily though conservative underwriting and purchasing loans with characteristics consistent with favorable expected credit performance and by applying various credit enhancements.

Credit Enhancements. The conventional mortgage loans under the MPP are primarily supported by some combination of credit enhancements (primary mortgage insurance (PMI) and the Lender Risk Account (LRA), including pooled LRA for those members participating in an aggregated MPP pool). These credit enhancements apply after a homeowner’s equity is exhausted. The LRA is funded by the FHLB upfront as a portion of the purchase proceeds. The LRA is recorded in other liabilities in the Statement of Condition. Excess funds from the LRA are released to the member in accordance with the terms of the Master Commitment Contract, which is typically after five years, subject to performance of the related loan pool. The LRA established for a pool of loans is limited to only covering losses of that specific pool of loans. Because the FHA makes an explicit guarantee on FHA mortgage loans, the FHLB does not require any credit enhancements on these loans beyond primary mortgage insurance.

Payment Status of Mortgage Loans. The key credit quality indicator for conventional mortgage loans is payment status, which allows the FHLB to monitor borrower performance. Past due loans are those where the borrower has failed to make a full payment of principal and interest within one month of its due date. Table 5.5 presents the payment status of conventional mortgage loans.

(1)Includes loans where the decision of foreclosure or a similar alternative such as pursuit of deed-in-lieu has been reported.

(2)Loans that are 90 days or more past due or in the process of foreclosure (including past due or current loans in the process of foreclosure) expressed as a percentage of the total loan portfolio class.

(3)Each conventional loan past due 90 days or more still accruing interest is on a schedule/scheduled monthly settlement basis and contains one or more credit enhancements. Loans that are well secured and in the process of collection as a result of remaining credit enhancements and schedule/scheduled settlement are not placed on non-accrual status.

(4)At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, (in thousands) $909 and $971, respectively, of conventional MPP loans on non-accrual status do not have a related allowance because these loans were either previously charged off to their expected recoverable value and/or the fair value of the underlying collateral, including any credit enhancements, is greater than the amortized cost of the loans.

The FHLB did not have any real estate owned at March 31, 2023 or December 31, 2022.

Mortgage Loan Modifications. Under certain circumstances, the FHLB offers loan modifications within its MPP. Most commonly, loan modifications consist of capitalization of any past due interest with a corresponding increase in unpaid principal and a recast of the monthly principal and interest payment. Less frequently, loan modifications may include interest rate reductions, term extensions, balloon payments, or a combination of these types. The amortized cost basis of mortgage loans modified with borrowers experiencing financial difficulty during the three months ended March 31, 2023 was (in thousands) $1,793. The financial effect of the modifications was not material to the FHLB’s financial condition or results of operations.

Evaluation of Current Expected Credit Losses

Mortgage Loans - FHA. The FHLB invests in fixed-rate mortgage loans secured by one to four family residential properties insured by the FHA. The FHLB expects to recover any losses from such loans from the FHA. Any losses from these loans that are not recovered from the FHA would be caused by a claim rejection by the FHA and, as such, would be recoverable from the selling participating financial institutions. Therefore, the FHLB only has credit risk for these loans if the seller or servicer fails to pay for losses not covered by the FHA insurance, but in such instance, the FHLB would have recourse against the servicer for such failure. As a result, the FHLB did not record an allowance for credit losses on its FHA insured mortgage loans. Furthermore, due to the insurance, none of these mortgage loans have been placed on non-accrual status.

Mortgage Loans - Conventional MPP. Conventional loans are evaluated collectively when similar risk characteristics exist; loans that do not share risk characteristics with other pools are removed from the collective evaluation and evaluated for expected credit losses on an individual basis. For loans with similar risk characteristics, the FHLB determines the allowance for credit losses through analyses that include considering various loan portfolio and collateral-related characteristics, such as past performance, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of expected economic conditions. The FHLB uses a model that employs a variety of methods, such as projected cash flows to estimate expected credit losses over the life of the loans. This model relies on a number of inputs, such as both current and forecasted property values and interest rates as well as historical borrower behavior experience. The FHLB’s calculation of expected credit losses includes a forecast of home prices over the entire contractual terms of its conventional loans rather than a reversion to historical home price trends after an initial forecast period. The FHLB also incorporates associated credit enhancements to determine estimated expected credit losses.

Certain conventional loans may be evaluated for credit losses by using the practical expedient for collateral dependent assets. A mortgage loan is considered collateral dependent when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and repayment is expected to be substantially through the sale of the underlying collateral. The FHLB may estimate the fair value of this collateral by either applying an appropriate loss severity rate, using third-party estimates, or using a property valuation model. The expected credit loss of a collateral dependent mortgage loan is equal to the difference between the amortized cost of the loan and the estimated fair value of the collateral, less estimated selling costs. The FHLB will either reserve for these estimated losses or record a direct charge-off of the loan balance, if certain triggering criteria are met. Expected recoveries of prior charge-offs, if any, are included in the allowance for credit losses.

The FHLB also assesses other qualitative factors in its estimation of loan losses for the collectively evaluated population. This amount represents a subjective management judgment, based on facts and circumstances that exist as of the reporting date, which is intended to cover other expected losses that may not otherwise be captured in the methodology described above.

Allowance for Credit Losses on Conventional Mortgage Loans. At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 the FHLB's allowance for credit losses on its conventional mortgage loans held for portfolio was (in thousands) $338 and $301, respectively.

Note 6 - Derivatives and Hedging Activities

Nature of Business Activity

The FHLB is exposed to interest rate risk primarily from the effect of changes in interest rates. The goal of the FHLB's interest-rate risk management strategy is not to eliminate interest-rate risk, but to manage it within appropriate limits. To mitigate the risk of loss, the FHLB has established policies and procedures, which include guidelines on the amount of exposure to interest rate changes it is willing to accept. In addition, the FHLB monitors the risk to its interest income, net interest margin and average maturity of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The FHLB uses derivatives when they are considered to be the most cost-effective alternative to achieve the FHLB's financial and risk management objectives. See Note 7 - Derivatives and Hedging Activities in the FHLB's 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information on the FHLB's derivative transactions.

20

The FHLB transacts its derivatives with counterparties that are large banks and major broker-dealers. Some of these banks and broker-dealers or their affiliates buy, sell, and distribute Consolidated Obligations. Derivative transactions may be executed either with a counterparty, referred to as uncleared derivatives, or cleared through a Futures Commission Merchant (i.e., clearing agent) with a Derivative Clearing Organization, referred to as cleared derivatives. The FHLB is not a derivative dealer and does not trade derivatives for short-term profit.

Financial Statement Effect and Additional Financial Information

The notional amount of derivatives serves as a factor in determining periodic interest payments or cash flows received and paid. The notional amount reflects the FHLB's involvement in the various classes of financial instruments and represents neither the actual amounts exchanged nor the overall exposure of the FHLB to credit and market risk. The risks of derivatives only can be measured meaningfully on a portfolio basis that takes into account the counterparties, the types of derivatives, the items being hedged and any offsets between the derivatives and the items being hedged.

Table 6.1 summarizes the notional amount and fair value of derivative instruments and total derivative assets and liabilities. Total derivative assets and liabilities include the effect of netting adjustments and cash collateral. For purposes of this disclosure, the derivative values include the fair value of derivatives and the related accrued interest.

Credit Risk on Derivatives

The FHLB is subject to credit risk given the risk of non-performance by counterparties to its derivative transactions, and manages credit risk through credit analysis, collateral requirements and adherence to the requirements set forth in its policies, U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission regulations, and Finance Agency regulations.

For uncleared derivatives, the degree of credit risk depends on the extent to which master netting arrangements are included in these contracts to mitigate the risk. The FHLB requires collateral agreements on its uncleared derivatives with the collateral delivery threshold set to zero.

For cleared derivatives, the Clearinghouse is the FHLB's counterparty. The Clearinghouse notifies the clearing agent of the required initial and variation margin and the clearing agent in turn notifies the FHLB. The FHLB utilizes two Clearinghouses for all cleared derivative transactions, LCH Ltd. and CME Clearing. At both Clearinghouses, variation margin is characterized as daily settlement payments, while initial margin is considered to be collateral. The requirement that the FHLB post initial and variation margin through the clearing agent, to the Clearinghouse, exposes the FHLB to credit risk if the clearing agent or the Clearinghouse fails to meet its obligations. The use of cleared derivatives is intended to mitigate credit risk exposure because a central counterparty is substituted for individual counterparties and collateral/payments for changes in the value of cleared derivatives is posted daily through a clearing agent. On the Statements of Cash Flows, the variation margin cash payments, or daily settlement payments, are included in net change in derivative and hedging activities, as an operating activity.

For cleared derivatives, the Clearinghouse determines initial margin requirements and generally credit ratings are not factored into the initial margin. However, clearing agents may require additional initial margin to be posted based on credit considerations, including, but not limited to, credit rating downgrades. At March 31, 2023, the FHLB was not required to post additional initial margin by its clearing agents based on credit considerations.

Offsetting of Derivative Assets and Derivative Liabilities

The FHLB presents derivative instruments, related cash collateral received or pledged, and associated accrued interest, on a net basis by clearing agent and/or by counterparty when it has met the netting requirements.

The FHLB has analyzed the enforceability of offsetting rights incorporated in its cleared derivative transactions, and it expects that the exercise of those offsetting rights by a non-defaulting party under these transactions would be upheld under applicable law upon an event of default including bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar proceeding involving the Clearinghouse or the FHLB's clearing agent, or both. Based on this analysis, the FHLB presents a net derivative receivable or payable for all of its transactions through a particular clearing agent with a particular Clearinghouse.

24

Table 6.5 presents separately the fair value of derivative instruments meeting or not meeting netting requirements, including the related collateral. At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the FHLB did not receive or pledge any non-cash collateral. Any over-collateralization under an individual clearing agent and/or counterparty level is not included in the determination of the net unsecured amount.

Consolidated Bonds, beyond having fixed-rate or variable-rate interest-rate payment terms, may also have a step-up interest-rate payment type. Step-up bonds pay interest at increasing fixed rates for specified intervals over the life of the Consolidated Bond. These Consolidated Bonds generally contain provisions enabling the FHLB to call the Consolidated Bonds at its option on the step-up dates.

Note 8 - Affordable Housing Program (AHP)

The FHLBank Act requires each FHLBank to establish an AHP. Each FHLBank provides subsidies in the form of direct grants or below-market interest rates on Advances to members who provide the funds to assist in the purchase, construction, or rehabilitation of housing for very low-, low-, and moderate-income households. Each FHLBank recognizes AHP assessment expense equal to the greater of 10 percent of its annual income subject to assessment, or the prorated sum required to ensure the aggregate contribution by the FHLBanks is no less than $100 million for each year. For purposes of the AHP calculation, income subject to assessment is defined as net income before AHP assessments, plus interest expense related to mandatorily redeemable capital stock. The FHLB accrues AHP expense monthly based on its income subject to assessment. The FHLB reduces the AHP liability as members use subsidies. In addition to the required AHP assessment, the Board of Directors may elect to make voluntary contributions to the AHP.

Note 11 - Segment Information

The FHLB has identified two primary operating segments based on its method of internal reporting: Traditional Member Finance and the MPP. These segments reflect the FHLB's two primary Mission Asset Activities and the manner in which they are managed from the perspective of development, resource allocation, product delivery, pricing, credit risk and operational administration. The segments identify the principal ways the FHLB provides services to member stockholders.

Note 12 - Fair Value Disclosures

The fair value amounts recorded on the Statements of Condition and presented in the related note disclosures have been determined by the FHLB using available market information and the FHLB's best judgment of appropriate valuation methods. GAAP defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e., an exit price). The fair values reflect the FHLB's judgment of how a market participant would estimate the fair values.

Fair Value Hierarchy. GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy and requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The inputs are evaluated and an overall level for the measurement is determined. This overall level is an indication of how market observable the fair value measurement is.

The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three broad levels:

Level 1 Inputs - Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in an active market that the reporting entity can access on the measurement date. An active market for the asset or liability is a market in which the transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

29

Level 2 Inputs - Inputs other than quoted prices within Level 1 that are observable inputs for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, a Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. Level 2 inputs include the following: (1) quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; (2) quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; (3) inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals, and implied volatilities); and (4) inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

Level 3 Inputs - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which are supported by limited to no market activity and reflect the FHLB's own assumptions.

The FHLB reviews the fair value hierarchy classifications on a quarterly basis. Changes in the observability of the valuation inputs may result in a reclassification of certain financial assets or liabilities. The FHLB did not have any transfers of assets or liabilities into or out of Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy during the three months ended March 31, 2023 or 2022.

Table 12.1 presents the carrying value, fair value, and fair value hierarchy of financial assets and liabilities of the FHLB. The FHLB records trading securities, available-for-sale securities, derivative assets, derivative liabilities, certain Advances and certain Consolidated Obligations at fair value on a recurring basis, and on occasion, certain mortgage loans held for portfolio on a nonrecurring basis. The FHLB records all other financial assets and liabilities at amortized cost. Refer to Table 12.2 for further details about the financial assets and liabilities held at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis.

Fair Value Option. The fair value option provides an irrevocable option to elect fair value as an alternative measurement for selected financial assets, financial liabilities, unrecognized firm commitments, and written loan commitments not previously carried at fair value. It requires a company to display the fair value of those assets and liabilities for which it has chosen to use fair value on the face of the Statements of Condition. Fair value is used for both the initial and subsequent measurement of the designated assets, liabilities and commitments, with the changes in fair value recognized in net income. If elected, interest income and interest expense on Advances and Consolidated Obligations carried at fair value are recognized based solely on the contractual amount of interest due or unpaid. Any transaction fees or costs are immediately recognized into other non-interest income or other non-interest expense.

The FHLB has elected the fair value option for certain financial instruments that either do not qualify for hedge accounting or may be at risk for not meeting hedge effectiveness requirements. These fair value elections were made primarily in an effort to mitigate the potential income statement volatility that can arise from economic hedging relationships in which the carrying value of the hedged item is not adjusted for changes in fair value.

Table 12.3 presents net gains (losses) recognized in earnings related to financial assets and liabilities in which the fair value option was elected during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.

Table 12.3 – Fair Value Option - Financial Assets and Liabilities (in thousands)

	Three Months Ended March 31,
Net Gains (Losses) from Changes in Fair Value Recognized in Earnings	2023		2022
Advances	$	33	$	(1,440)
Consolidated Discount Notes	(16,548)		9,200
Consolidated Bonds	(18,297)		10,918
Total net gains (losses)	$	(34,812)	$	18,678

For instruments recorded under the fair value option, the related contractual interest income, contractual interest expense and the discount amortization on Discount Notes are recorded as part of net interest income on the Statements of Income. The remaining changes in fair value for instruments in which the fair value option has been elected are recorded as “Net gains (losses) on financial instruments held under fair value option” in the Statements of Income, except for changes in fair value related to instrument specific credit risk, which are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the Statement of Condition. The FHLB has determined that none of the remaining changes in fair value were related to instrument-specific credit risk for the three months ended March 31, 2023 or 2022. In determining that there has been no change in instrument-specific credit risk period to period, the FHLB primarily considered the following factors:

▪The FHLB is a federally chartered GSE, and as a result of this status, the FHLB’s Consolidated Obligations have historically received the same credit ratings as the government bond credit rating of the United States, even though they are not obligations of the United States and are not guaranteed by the United States.

▪The FHLB is jointly and severally liable with the other 10 FHLBanks for the payment of principal and interest on all Consolidated Obligations of each of the other FHLBanks.

The following table reflects the difference between the aggregate unpaid principal balance outstanding and the aggregate fair value for Advances and Consolidated Obligations for which the fair value option has been elected.

Note 13 - Commitments and Contingencies

Off-Balance Sheet Commitments. Table 13.1 represents off-balance sheet commitments at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The FHLB has deemed it unnecessary to record any liabilities for credit losses on these commitments at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

(1)Expiration is based on settlement period rather than underlying contractual maturity of Consolidated Obligations.

The carrying value of guarantees related to Letters of Credit are recorded in other liabilities and were (in thousands) $11,490 and $9,691 at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Legal Proceedings. From time to time, the FHLB is subject to legal proceedings arising in the normal course of business. The FHLB would record an accrual for a loss contingency when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount could be reasonably estimated. After consultation with legal counsel, management does not anticipate that the ultimate liability and the range of reasonably possible losses, if any, arising out of any matters will have a material effect on the FHLB's financial condition or results of operations.

Note 14 - Transactions with Other FHLBanks

The FHLB notes transactions with other FHLBanks on the face of its financial statements. Occasionally, the FHLB loans short-term funds to and borrows short-term funds from other FHLBanks. These loans and borrowings are transacted at current market rates when traded. There were (in thousands) $750,000 of loans outstanding at March 31, 2023 and no such loans outstanding at December 31, 2022. There were no such borrowings outstanding at March 31, 2023 or December 31, 2022. The following table details the average daily balance of lending and borrowing between the FHLB and other FHLBanks for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.

In addition, the FHLB may, from time to time, assume the outstanding primary liability for Consolidated Obligations of another FHLBank (at current market rates on the day when the transfer is traded) rather than issuing new debt for which the FHLB is the primary obligor. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the par amount of the liability on Consolidated Obligations transferred to the FHLB totaled (in thousands) $250,000. The net discount associated with this transaction was immaterial. There were no Consolidated Obligations transferred to the FHLB during the three months ended March 31, 2022. The FHLB had no Consolidated Obligations transferred to other FHLBanks during these periods.

Note 15 - Transactions with Stockholders

As a cooperative, the FHLB's capital stock is owned by its members, by former members that retain the stock as provided in the FHLB's Capital Plan and by nonmember institutions that have acquired members and must retain the stock to support Advances or other activities with the FHLB. All Advances were issued to members and all mortgage loans held for portfolio were purchased from members during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022. The FHLB may also maintain demand deposit accounts for members, primarily to facilitate settlement activities that are directly related to Advances and mortgage loan purchases. Additionally, the FHLB may enter into interest rate swaps with its stockholders. The FHLB may not invest in any equity securities issued by its stockholders. At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the FHLB did not own any MBS securitized by, or other investment securities issued by, its stockholders.

For financial statement purposes, the FHLB defines related parties as those members with more than 10 percent of the voting interests of the FHLB capital stock outstanding. Federal statute prescribes the voting rights of members in the election of both Member and Independent directors. For Member directorships, the Finance Agency designates the number of Member directorships in a given year and an eligible voting member may vote only for candidates seeking election in its respective state. For Independent directors, the FHLB's Board of Directors nominates candidates to be placed on the ballot in an at-large election. For both Member and Independent director elections, a member is entitled to vote one share of required capital stock, subject to a statutory limitation, for each applicable directorship. Under this limitation, the total number of votes that a member may cast is limited to the average number of shares of the FHLB's capital stock that were required to be held by all members in that state as of the record date for voting. Nonmember stockholders are not eligible to vote in director elections. Given these statutory limitations, no member owned more than 10 percent of the voting interests of the FHLB at March 31, 2023 or December 31, 2022.

All transactions with stockholders are entered into in the ordinary course of business. Finance Agency regulations require the FHLB to offer the same pricing for Advances and other services to all members regardless of asset or transaction size, charter type, or geographic location. However, the FHLB may, in pricing its Advances, distinguish among members based upon its assessment of the credit and other risks to the FHLB of lending to any particular member or upon other reasonable criteria that may be applied equally to all members. The FHLB's policies and procedures require that such standards and criteria be applied consistently and without discrimination to all members applying for Advances.

Transactions with Directors' Financial Institutions. In the ordinary course of its business, the FHLB provides products and services to members whose officers or directors serve as directors of the FHLB (Directors' Financial Institutions). Finance Agency regulations require that transactions with Directors' Financial Institutions be made on the same terms as those with any other member. The following table reflects balances with Directors' Financial Institutions for the items indicated below. The FHLB had no MBS or derivatives transactions with Directors' Financial Institutions at March 31, 2023 or December 31, 2022.

Nonmember Affiliates. The FHLB has relationships with three nonmember affiliates, the Kentucky Housing Corporation, the Ohio Housing Finance Agency and the Tennessee Housing Development Agency. The FHLB had no investments in or borrowings to any of these nonmember affiliates at March 31, 2023 or December 31, 2022.

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

Recent Developments

Business Environment

During the first three months of 2023, concerns about inflation, a potential recession, the health of the banking industry following significant deposit outflows experienced by several U.S. banks, and interest rate hikes by the Federal Reserve were dominant themes causing market stress and volatility. Throughout these challenges, we have continued to fulfill our mission of providing robust access to a key source of readily available and competitively priced wholesale funding to member financial institutions and supporting our commitment to affordable housing and community investment. For example, in connection with the March 2023 bank failures outside of the Fifth District, we continued to provide uninterrupted access to Advances to deliver liquidity to our members in the days following these bank failures.

In April 2023, we demonstrated our commitment to support our housing and community investment programs with an additional voluntary contribution of $12.8 million. These funds are in addition to the required AHP assessments under the FHLBank Act, and will increase amounts available in 2023 for the Carol M. Peterson Housing Fund, Welcome Home Program and competitive Affordable Housing Program (AHP) offering.

Our capital and liquidity positions continue to remain strong, as has our overall ability to fund operations through the issuance of Consolidated Obligations at acceptable interest costs, including most recently during the market volatility this quarter. Additionally, overall residual credit risk exposure from our Credit Services, mortgage loan portfolio, investments, and derivative transactions has remained de minimis. Our market risk measures continue to be within our risk appetite. We continue to monitor the changing economic landscape and effects of inflation, the recent bank failures and the ensuing market volatility and are committed to assisting members in meeting their funding needs as these events continue to unfold.

Financial Condition

Mission Assets and Activities

Primary Mission Assets (i.e., principal balances of Advances and mortgage loans held for portfolio) and Supplemental Mission Activities (i.e., Letters of Credit, Mandatory Delivery Contracts and standby bond purchase agreements) are the principal business activities by which we fulfill our mission with direct connections to members and what we refer to as Mission Assets and Activities. We regularly monitor our concentration of Mission Assets and Activities. One measure we use to assess mission achievement is our Primary Mission Asset ratio, which measures the sum of average Advances and mortgage loans as a percentage of average Consolidated Obligations (adjusted for certain high-quality liquid assets, as permitted by regulation). In the first three months of 2023, the Primary Mission Asset ratio averaged 79 percent, above the Finance Agency's preferred ratio of 70 percent. In assessing overall mission achievement, we also consider supplemental sources of Mission Assets and Activities, the most significant of which is Letters of Credit issued for the benefit of members.

The following table summarizes our Mission Assets and Activities.

(1)Amounts represent principal balances.

(2)Amounts represent off-balance sheet commitments.

Advance principal balances increased $40.5 billion (60 percent) from year-end 2022. Additionally, average principal Advance balances for the three months ended March 31, 2023 increased $43.6 billion (131 percent) compared to the same period of 2022. The increase in Advance balances resulted primarily from depository members' greater demand for liquidity, especially short-term Advances, in response to the stress placed on the banking industry and financial markets.

Advance balances are often volatile given our members' ability to quickly, normally on the same day, increase or decrease the amount of their Advances. We believe that a key benefit of membership comes from our business model as a wholesale lender GSE, which provides members flexibility in their Advance funding levels and helps support their asset-liability management needs. We act as a reliable source of funding for our members. Our business model is designed to support significant changes in asset levels without having to undergo material changes in staffing, operations, risk practices, or general resource needs. A key reason for this scalability is that our Capital Plan provides for additional capital when Advances grow and the opportunity for us to retire capital when Advances decline, thereby acting, along with our level of operating expenses, to preserve competitive profitability.

The MPP principal balance declined $0.1 billion (one percent) from the year-end 2022 balance. During the first three months of 2023, we purchased less than $0.1 billion of mortgage loans, while principal reductions were $0.1 billion. Principal reductions in the first quarter of 2023 trended much lower than the reductions in 2022, due in large part to the elevated mortgage rate environment.

Letters of Credit decreased $1.4 billion (three percent) from year-end 2022. Letters of Credit balances are primarily used by members to secure public unit deposits. We normally earn fees on Letters of Credit based on the actual average amount of the Letters utilized, which generally is less than the notional amount issued.

Investments

The balance of investments at March 31, 2023 was $46.3 billion, an increase of $12.7 billion (38 percent) from year-end 2022. At March 31, 2023, investments included $17.2 billion of MBS and $29.1 billion of other investments, which consisted primarily of short-term instruments and longer-term U.S. Treasury and GSE obligations held for liquidity. All of our MBS held at March 31, 2023 were issued and guaranteed by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac or Ginnie Mae. The increase in investments was primarily driven by higher liquidity investments. We held more liquidity investments at the end of the first quarter of 2023 in light of the increased Advance demand, which was concentrated in short-term Advances and somewhat volatile. Liquidity investments can vary significantly on a daily basis during times of volatility in Advance balances. We maintained a robust amount of asset liquidity throughout the first three months of 2023 across a variety of liquidity measures, as discussed in the "Liquidity Risk" section of "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Risk Management."

41

Investments averaged $38.3 billion in the first three months of 2023, an increase of $3.3 billion (10 percent) compared to the average during the same period of 2022, which was driven by higher MBS. The average balances of MBS rose given our increased authority to purchase MBS, which was a result of the higher regulatory capital balance in support of Advance borrowings.

Capital

The GAAP and regulatory capital-to-assets ratios at March 31, 2023 were 4.87 percent and 4.91 percent, respectively. Both ratios exceeded the regulatory required minimum of four percent. Regulatory capital includes mandatorily redeemable capital stock accounted for as a liability under GAAP. Both GAAP and regulatory capital increased $1.5 billion from year-end 2022. The increase in capital was driven by purchases of capital stock to support Advance activity in the first quarter of 2023. Retained earnings totaled $1.5 billion at March 31, 2023, an increase of four percent from year-end 2022. We believe the amount of retained earnings is sufficient to protect against members' impairment risk of their capital stock investment in the FHLB and to provide the opportunity to stabilize or increase future dividends.

Results of Operations

Overall Results

Our earnings over time reflect the combination of a stable business model and conservative management of risk. Key market driven factors that can cause significant periodic volatility in our profitability include changes in the level of interest rates, changes in spreads between benchmark interest rates and our short-term funding costs, recognition of net amortization from accelerated prepayments of mortgage assets, and fair value adjustments related to the use of derivatives and the associated hedged items. Our profitability may also be affected by our members' overall Advance demand, which is largely influenced by the monetary policies of the U.S. government and its agencies, including the Federal Reserve, and general economic conditions. The table below summarizes our results of operations.

	Three Months Ended March 31,						Year Ended December 31,
(Dollars in millions)	2023			2022			2022

(1)Dividend payout ratio is dividends declared in the period as a percentage of net income.

(2)Average overnight interest rates consist of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) and the Federal funds effective rate.

Net income increased $111 million in the first three months of 2023 compared to the same period of 2022. The increase in net income was primarily a result of significantly higher interest rates and average Advance balances. In particular, during the first quarter of 2023, higher average interest rates increased the earnings generated from investing the FHLB's capital and contributed to improved spreads earned on mortgage loans held for portfolio. Additionally, average Advance balances were significantly higher in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period of 2022 primarily due to depository members' greater demand for liquidity. In March 2023, member demand for Advances accelerated further in response to the stress placed on the banking industry after several U.S. banks experienced significant deposit outflows and the ensuing uncertainties in the financial markets.

In the first three months of 2023, we accrued $14 million for the AHP pool of funds, which will be available to members in 2024. In addition to the required AHP assessment, our Board of Directors may elect to make voluntary contributions to our AHP or other community investment programs. For example, in April 2023 we voluntarily committed an additional $12.8 million to address the needs related to affordable housing and economic development in the Fifth District.

In March 2023, we paid stockholders a quarterly dividend at a 6.00 percent annualized rate on their capital investment in our company, which is 1.50 percentage points above first quarter average overnight interest rates.

Effect of Interest Rate Environment

Trends in market interest rates and the resulting shapes of the market yield curves strongly influence our results of operations and profitability because of how they affect members' demand for Mission Assets and Activities, spreads on assets, funding costs and decisions in managing the tradeoffs in our market risk/return profile. The following table presents key market interest rates (obtained from Bloomberg L.P.).

	Quarter 1 2023				Year 2022				Quarter 1 2022
	Ending		Average		Ending		Average		Ending		Average
Federal funds effective	4.83	%	4.51	%	4.33	%	1.69	%	0.33	%	0.12	%
SOFR	4.87		4.49		4.30		1.65		0.29		0.09
3-month LIBOR	5.19		4.92		4.77		2.39		0.96		0.51
2-year LIBOR	4.36		4.65		4.71		3.27		2.55		1.63
10-year LIBOR	3.46		3.64		3.84		3.00		2.41		2.01
2-year U.S. Treasury	4.03		4.36		4.43		2.98		2.34		1.43

30-year mortgage current coupon (1)	5.05		5.17		5.39		4.25		3.49		2.83

(1)     Current coupon rate of Fannie Mae par MBS indications.

At March 31, 2023, the target overnight Federal funds rate was in the range of 4.75 to 5.00 percent, a significant increase from the range of 0.25 to 0.50 percent at March 31, 2022. In May 2023, the Federal Reserve increased the target overnight Federal funds rate by 0.25 percent to a range of 5.00 to 5.25 percent.

Average overnight rates were approximately 440 basis points higher in the first three months of 2023 compared to the same period of 2022, while average mortgage rates increased approximately 230 basis points. The increase in short-term rates improved our earnings from capital by $65 million in the first three months of 2023. Additionally, the substantial increase in average rates in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period of 2022 benefited net income as it improved the spreads earned on our mortgage loans held for portfolio.

During the first three months of 2023 and throughout 2022, the market risk exposure to changing interest rates was moderate and within policy limits. We believe that longer-term profitability will be competitive, unless interest rates were to further increase significantly for a sustained period of time.

Regulatory and Legislative Developments

Significant regulatory and legislative actions and developments for the period covered by this Report not previously disclosed are summarized below.

Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) Final Rule on Small Business Lending Data

On March 30, 2023, the CFPB issued a final rule requiring certain covered financial institutions to collect and report small business lending data. Small businesses are businesses with $5 million or less in gross annual revenue in the preceding fiscal year. The FHLBanks will be subject to data collection and reporting obligations if an FHLBank has originated a minimum of 100 “covered credit transactions” to small businesses in each of the two preceding calendar years. The final rule implements phased-in compliance dates, beginning on October 1, 2024, based on the number of originations the covered financial institution makes to small businesses within a specified timeframe. We are assessing whether the obligations will be triggered for us and what operational changes will be necessary for compliance. While we are still analyzing the impact of the final rule, we do not believe these changes will have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

Finance Agency Proposed Rule on Fair Lending, Fair Housing, and Equitable Housing Finance Plans

On April 26, 2023, the Finance Agency published a proposed rule that specifies requirements related to FHLBank compliance with fair housing and fair lending laws and prohibitions on unfair or deceptive acts or practices. The fair housing and fair lending laws would be the Fair Housing Act, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, and those acts’ implementing regulations. Further, the proposed rule would outline the Finance Agency’s enforcement authority. The proposal is open for public comment through June 26, 2023, and we are evaluating the potential impact of the proposed rule on our operations.

43

LIBOR Transition Update

In preparation for the replacement of LIBOR, which will either cease to be provided by any administrator or no longer be representative immediately after June 30, 2023, we have developed and implemented a LIBOR transition plan to remediate our LIBOR-linked financial instruments and contracts. We have added or adjusted fallback language for our Advances, have worked with our counterparties to address over-the-counter derivative agreements referencing U.S. dollar LIBOR, and will convert LIBOR-linked MBS as part of our LIBOR transition efforts. We have offered SOFR-linked Consolidated Obligations and SOFR-linked Advances on an ongoing basis. In addition, we have been using SOFR-based derivatives to manage interest-rate risk, purchasing SOFR-linked MBS, and converted LIBOR-based interest rate swaps with maturities after June 30, 2023 to SOFR. Collectively, we believe these efforts have reduced our LIBOR exposure and have kept us on track for the full replacement of LIBOR.

The following table presents our remaining LIBOR-indexed Advances, investment securities and derivatives at March 31, 2023. At March 31, 2023, all of our variable rate Consolidated Obligations were linked to SOFR.

(In millions)	Maturing on or before June 30, 2023		Maturing after June 30, 2023
LIBOR-Indexed Variable Rate Financial Instruments
Advances by redemption term	$	2	$	3,007
MBS by contractual maturity (1)	—		3,365
Total principal amount	$	2	$	6,372
Derivatives, notional amount by termination date	$	219	$	—

(1)MBS are presented by contractual maturity; however, their expected maturities will likely differ from contractual maturities as borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment fees.

The market transition away from LIBOR towards SOFR is complicated and includes the possible development of term structures and credit adjustments to accommodate differences between LIBOR and SOFR and the potential introduction of other alternative reference rates. However, we believe our LIBOR transition plan has effectively positioned us for the full replacement of LIBOR and has reduced the risk of adverse effects the transition may have on our business.

(3)Represents the amount of an off-balance sheet obligation.

Advance principal balances at March 31, 2023 increased 60 percent compared to year-end 2022. The increase in Advances resulted primarily from depository members' greater demand for liquidity in response to the stress placed on the banking industry after several U.S. banks experienced significant deposit outflows and the ensuing uncertainties in the financial markets. Although Advance balances have increased, much of the demand has been for short-term Advances, which are often volatile as members' funding needs may change quickly. The future levels of Advance balances are difficult to predict and depend on many factors, including but not limited to, changes in the level of liquidity in the financial markets, changes in our members' deposit levels compared to loan growth and whether an economic downturn occurs.

Letters of Credit are issued on behalf of members to support certain obligations of members (or members' customers) to third-party beneficiaries. Letters of Credit were elevated throughout 2022 and only decreased $1.4 billion (three percent) in the first three months of 2023 as members continue to primarily use them to secure higher levels of public unit deposits. Letters of Credit usually expire without being drawn upon.

We believe that having large financial institutions that actively use our products augments the value of membership to members. For example, such activity improves our operating efficiency, increases our earnings and thereby contributions to housing and community investment programs. This activity may enable us to obtain more favorable funding costs and helps us maintain competitively priced products.

Mortgage Loans Held for Portfolio (Mortgage Purchase Program, or MPP)

MPP balances are influenced by conditions in the housing and mortgage markets, the competitiveness of prices we offer to purchase loans as well as program features, and activity from our largest sellers. We manage purchases and balances at a prudent level relative to capital and total assets to effectively manage market and credit risks consistent with our risk appetite.

The table below shows principal purchases and reductions of loans in the MPP for the first three months of 2023. All loans acquired in the first three months of 2023 were conventional loans.

(In millions)	MPP Principal
Balance, December 31, 2022	$	7,006
Principal purchases	42
Principal reductions	(135)
Balance, March 31, 2023	$	6,913

We closely track the refinancing incentives of our mortgage assets (including loans in the MPP and MBS) because the option for homeowners to change their principal payments normally represents the largest portion of our market risk exposure and can affect MPP balances. MPP principal paydowns decreased in the first three months of 2023 to a four percent annual constant prepayment rate, compared to the 11 percent rate during 2022, driven by the elevated mortgage rate environment that has persisted over the last several quarters. Likewise, elevated mortgage rates have substantially eliminated any borrower incentive to refinance and have slowed mortgage purchase originations, which in turn has continued the slow pace of our purchases of new MPP loans in the first quarter of 2023.

Overall, MPP yields on new purchases and existing portfolio balances, relative to their market and credit risks, are expected to continue to generate a profitable long-term return.

Investments

The table below presents the ending and average balances of our investment portfolio.

	Three Months Ended				Year Ended
(In millions)	March 31, 2023				December 31, 2022
	Ending Balance		Average Balance		Ending Balance		Average Balance
Liquidity investments	$	29,138	$	20,927	$	17,028	$	24,608
MBS	17,185		16,822		16,577		13,678
Other investments (1)	—		585		—		444
Total investments	$	46,323	$	38,334	$	33,605	$	38,730

(1)The average balance includes the rights or obligations to cash collateral, which are included in the fair value of derivative assets or derivative liabilities on the Statements of Condition at period end.

Liquidity investments are either short-term (primarily overnight), or longer-term investments that may be sold and converted to cash. Under our regulatory requirements, liquidity includes certain high-quality liquid assets, which are defined as uncommitted U.S. Treasury obligations with remaining maturities of 10 years or less held as trading securities or available-for-sale securities. It is normal for liquidity investments to vary by up to several billion dollars on a daily basis. Liquidity investment levels can vary significantly based on changes in the amount of actual Advances, anticipated demand for Advances, regulatory liquidity requirements, the availability of acceptable net spreads, and the number of eligible counterparties that meet our unsecured credit risk criteria. The ending balance of liquidity investments at March 31, 2023 increased $12.1 billion (71 percent) compared to year-end 2022 because of additional liquidity investments being held in light of the increased level and volatility of Advance demand as previously described.

Our overarching strategy for balances of MBS is to keep holdings as close as possible to the regulatory maximum. Finance Agency regulations prohibit us from purchasing MBS if our investment in these securities exceeds three times regulatory capital on the day we intend to purchase the securities. The ratio of MBS to regulatory capital was 2.15 at March 31, 2023. The MBS ratio was below our preference to hold it near the three times regulatory maximum primarily because of the rapid increase in regulatory capital, which was driven by members' purchases of capital stock to support Advance activity.

The balance of MBS at March 31, 2023 consisted of $16.0 billion of securities issued by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac (of which $12.4 billion were floating-rate securities), and $1.2 billion of securities issued by Ginnie Mae (which are primarily fixed rate).

The table below shows principal purchases and paydowns of our MBS for the first three months of 2023.

(In millions)	MBS Principal
Balance at December 31, 2022	$	16,798
Principal purchases	828
Principal paydowns	(259)
Balance at March 31, 2023	$	17,367

As mortgage rates remained elevated in the first three months of 2023, MBS principal paydowns decreased to a six percent annual constant prepayment rate from the 12 percent rate experienced in all of 2022.

47

Consolidated Obligations

We generally fund variable-rate assets with Discount Notes (a portion of which may be swapped), adjustable-rate Bonds, and swapped fixed-rate Bonds because they give us the ability to effectively match the underlying rate reset periods embedded in these assets. The balances and composition of our Consolidated Obligations tend to fluctuate with changes in the balances and composition of our assets. In addition, changes in the amount and composition of our funding may be necessary from time to time to meet the days of positive liquidity and asset/liability maturity funding gap requirements discussed in the "Liquidity Risk" section of "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Risk Management."

The table below presents the ending and average balances of our participations in Consolidated Obligations.

	Three Months Ended				Year Ended
(In millions)	March 31, 2023				December 31, 2022
	Ending Balance		Average Balance		Ending Balance		Average Balance
Discount Notes:
Unswapped	$	37,550	$	21,856	$	19,825	$	24,931

Other items (1)	(28)		(61)		(75)		(34)
Total Bonds	84,259		64,317		59,668		43,940
Total Consolidated Obligations (3)	$	153,944	$	113,891	$	100,359	$	90,390

(1)Includes unamortized premiums/discounts, fair value option valuation adjustments, hedging and other basis adjustments.

(2)At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, all unswapped adjustable-rate Bonds were indexed to SOFR.

(3)The 11 FHLBanks have joint and several liability for the par amount of all of the Consolidated Obligations issued on their behalves. The par amount of the outstanding Consolidated Obligations for all of the FHLBanks was (in millions) $1,477,668 and $1,181,743 at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

The balances of Discount Notes and unswapped adjustable-rate Bonds in the first three months of 2023 were higher compared to the balances at year-end 2022 primarily due to growth in short-term and variable-rate Advances and liquidity investments. The growth in Advances resulted primarily from depository members' greater demand for liquidity in response to the stress placed on the banking industry and financial markets.

The ending and average balances of swapped Discount Notes at March 31, 2023 remained elevated as the market environment during the first quarter of 2023 generally favored swapped debt. We swap term Discount Notes and fixed-rate bonds to adjustable-rates in order to match the underlying rate reset periods to the assets the Discount Notes and Bonds are funding, as well as to reduce the repricing risk of Discount Notes.

Deposits

Total deposits with us are normally a relatively minor source of funding. All deposits with us are uninsured. Total interest-bearing deposits at March 31, 2023 were $1.3 billion, an increase of $0.2 billion compared to the balance at year-end 2022.

Derivatives Hedging Activity and Liquidity

Our use of derivatives is discussed in the "Effect of the Use of Derivatives on Net Interest Income" and "Non-Interest Income (Loss)" sections in "Results of Operations." Liquidity is discussed in the "Liquidity Risk" section in “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Risk Management.”

Capital Resources

The following tables present capital amounts and capital-to-assets ratios, on both a GAAP and regulatory basis. We consider the regulatory ratio to be a better representation of financial leverage than the GAAP ratio because, although the GAAP ratio treats mandatorily redeemable capital stock as a liability, it protects investors in our debt in the same manner as GAAP capital stock and retained earnings.

	Three Months Ended				Year Ended
(In millions)	March 31, 2023				December 31, 2022
	Period End		Average		Period End		Average
GAAP and Regulatory Capital
GAAP Capital Stock	$	6,605	$	5,023	$	5,151	$	3,961
Mandatorily Redeemable Capital Stock	17		17		17		115
Regulatory Capital Stock	6,622		5,040		5,168		4,076
Retained Earnings	1,454		1,447		1,401		1,339
Regulatory Capital	$	8,076	$	6,487	$	6,569	$	5,415

	Three Months Ended				Year Ended
	March 31, 2023				December 31, 2022
	Period End		Average		Period End		Average
GAAP and Regulatory Capital-to-Assets Ratio
GAAP	4.87	%	5.23	%	5.99	%	5.33	%
Regulatory (1)	4.91		5.27		6.05		5.47

(1)    At all times, the FHLB must maintain at least a four percent minimum regulatory capital-to-assets ratio.

Our business model is structured to be able to absorb sharp changes in assets because we can execute commensurate changes in liability and capital stock balances. For example, in the first three months of 2023, we issued $3.1 billion of capital stock to members primarily in support of Advance borrowings.

Excess capital stock is the amount of stock held by a member (or former member) in excess of that institution's minimum stock ownership requirement. Excess capital stock provides a base of capital to manage financial leverage at prudent levels, augments loss protections for bondholders, and may be used by a member to capitalize additional Mission Assets and Activities, before purchasing activity stock. At March 31, 2023, the amount of excess stock, as defined by our Capital Plan, was $0.9 billion, a decrease of $0.4 billion compared to the balance at year-end 2022. The balance of excess stock decreased in the first three months of 2023 given our repurchase of $1.7 billion of excess capital stock.

See the "Capital Adequacy" section in “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Risk Management” for discussion of our retained earnings.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Components of Earnings and Return on Equity

The following table is a summary income statement for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022. Each ROE percentage is computed by dividing income or expense for the category by the average amount of stockholders' equity for the period.

	Three Months Ended March 31,
(Dollars in millions)	2023				2022
	Amount		ROE (1)		Amount		ROE (1)

(1)The ROE amounts have been computed using dollars in thousands. Accordingly, recalculations based upon the disclosed amounts in millions may produce nominally different results.

Details on the individual factors contributing to the level and changes in profitability are explained in the sections below.

Net Interest Income

Components of Net Interest Income

The following table shows selected components of net interest income.

	Three Months Ended March 31,
(Dollars in millions)	2023				2022
	Amount		% of Earning Assets		Amount		% of Earning Assets
Components of net interest rate spread:

Total net interest income/net interest margin (3)	$	180	0.60	%	$	81	0.43	%

(1)Includes monthly recognition of premiums and discounts paid on purchases of mortgage assets, premiums, discounts and concessions paid on Consolidated Obligations and other hedging basis adjustments.

(2)This component of net interest rate spread has been segregated to display its relative impact.

(3)Net interest margin is net interest income as a percentage of average total interest-earning assets.

Net Amortization/Accretion (generally referred to as "amortization"): Net amortization can become substantial and volatile with changes in interest rates. When mortgage rates decrease, premium amortization of mortgage assets generally

50

increases, which reduces net interest income. However, in the first three months of 2023, mortgage rates remained elevated, keeping mortgage refinance activity along with net amortization low.

Prepayment Fees on Advances: Fees for members' early repayment of certain Advances, which are included in net interest income, are designed to make us economically indifferent to whether members hold Advances to maturity or repay them before maturity. Advance prepayment fees were minimal in three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.

Other Components of Net Interest Rate Spread: The total other components of net interest rate spread increased $32 million in the first three months of 2023 compared to the same period of 2022. The net increase was primarily due to the factors below.

▪Higher average Advance balances-Favorable: The $43.1 billion increase in the average balance of Advances improved net interest income by an estimated $36 million.

▪Higher spreads earned on mortgage loans held for portfolio-Favorable: Higher spreads on mortgage loans held for portfolio increased net interest income by an estimated $26 million. Spreads improved primarily because of the rise in interest rates.

▪Higher average balances of MBS-Favorable: Increases of $5.7 billion in average MBS improved net interest income by an estimated $5 million.

▪Lower spreads on shorter-term and floating-rate assets-Unfavorable: Lower spreads on shorter-term and floating-rate assets (including those that have been swapped to a floating rate) decreased net interest income by an estimated $32 million. However, the decrease in net interest income was partially offset by lower non-interest losses primarily because of a $26 million decline in the net interest settlements being paid on related derivatives not receiving hedge accounting.

▪Lower net unrealized gains on designated fair value hedges-Unfavorable: Net unrealized gains on hedged items and derivatives in qualifying fair value hedge relationships were lower by $2 million.

Earnings from Capital: Earnings from capital increased $65 million in the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the same period of 2022 because of the significantly higher average short-term interest rates and higher average capital balances.

Average Balance Sheet and Rates

The following table provides average balances and rates for major balance sheet accounts, which determine the changes in net interest rate spreads. Interest amounts and average rates are affected by our use of derivatives and the related accounting elections we make. Interest amounts reported for Advances, MBS, Other investments and Swapped Bonds include gains (losses) on hedged items and derivatives in qualifying fair value hedge relationships.

In addition, the net interest settlements of interest receivables or payables associated with derivatives in a fair value hedge relationship are included in net interest income and interest rate spread. However, if the derivatives do not qualify for fair value hedge accounting, the related net interest settlements of interest receivables or payables are recorded in “Non-interest income (loss)” as “Net gains (losses) on derivatives” and therefore are excluded from the calculation of net interest rate spread. Amortization associated with some hedging-related basis adjustments is also reflected in net interest income, which affects interest rate spread.

(1)Amounts used to calculate average rates are based on dollars in thousands. Accordingly, recalculations based upon the disclosed amounts in millions may not produce the same results.

(2)Interest on Advances includes prepayment fees of (in millions) $3 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Advance prepayment fees for the three months ended March 31, 2023 totaled less than one million.

(3)Non-accrual loans are included in average balances used to determine average rate.

(4)The average balance amounts include the rights or obligations to cash collateral, which are included in the fair value of derivative assets or derivative liabilities on the Statements of Condition at period end.

(5)Includes available-for-sale securities based on their amortized costs. The yield information does not give effect to changes in fair value that are reflected as a component of stockholders' equity for available-for-sale securities.

(6)Net interest margin is net interest income as a percentage of average total interest-earning assets.

Rates and corresponding levels of interest income and expense on all of our interest-bearing assets and liabilities increased in the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the same period of 2022, as these assets and liabilities have repriced to the higher interest rates.

Volume/Rate Analysis

Changes in both average balances (volume) and interest rates influence changes in net interest income, as shown in the following table.

(In millions)	Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 over 2022

(1)Volume changes are calculated as the change in volume multiplied by the prior year rate.

(2)Rate changes are calculated as the change in rate multiplied by the prior year average balance.

(3)Changes that are not identifiable as either volume-related or rate-related, but rather are equally attributable to both volume and rate changes, have been allocated to the volume and rate categories based upon the proportion of the absolute value of the volume and rate changes.

Effect of the Use of Derivatives on Net Interest Income

The following table shows the impact on net interest income from the effect of derivatives and hedging activities. As noted above, gains (losses) on hedged items and derivatives in qualifying fair value hedge relationships are recorded in interest income or expense. In addition, for derivatives designated as a fair value hedge, the net interest settlements of interest receivables or payables related to such derivatives are recognized as adjustments to the interest income or expense of the designated hedged item. As such, all the effects on earnings of derivatives qualifying for fair value hedge accounting are reflected in net interest income. The effect on earnings from derivatives not receiving fair value hedge accounting is provided in the “Non-Interest Income (Loss)” section below.

(In millions)	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2023		2022
Advances:
Gains (losses) on designated fair value hedges	$	(4)	$	2
Net interest settlements included in net interest income	57		(22)
Investment securities:
Gains (losses) on designated fair value hedges	(10)		—
Net interest settlements included in net interest income	70		(13)
Mortgage loans:
Amortization of derivative fair value adjustments in net interest income	—		(1)
Consolidated Obligation Bonds:
Net interest settlements included in net interest income	(8)		—
Increase (decrease) to net interest income	$	105	$	(34)

Most of our use of derivatives is to synthetically convert the fixed interest rates on certain Advances, investments and Consolidated Obligations to adjustable rates tied to an eligible benchmark rate (e.g., the Federal funds effective rate or SOFR). The sharp increases in short-term interest rates primarily benefited net interest income in the first three months of 2023 as the conversion of certain Advances' and investments' fixed interest rates to adjustable-coupon rates resulted in net interest settlements being received rather than paid. The fluctuation in earnings from the use of derivatives was acceptable because it enabled us to lower market risk exposure by matching actual cash flows between assets and liabilities more closely and efficiently than would otherwise occur.

54

Non-Interest Income (Loss)

Non-interest income (loss) consists of certain gains (losses) on investment securities, derivatives activities, financial instruments held under the fair value option, and other non-interest earning activities. The following tables present the net effect of derivatives and hedging activities on non-interest income (loss). The effects of derivatives and hedging activities on non-interest income (loss) relate only to derivatives not qualifying for fair value hedge accounting.

The effect of derivatives and hedging activities on earnings in the three months ended March 31, 2023 improved primarily because of the increase in short-term rates, which resulted in net interest settlements being received on derivatives related to investments where the fixed interest rates were converted to adjustable-coupon rates. Some of this benefit was partially offset as the increase in short-term rates also resulted in net interest settlements being paid rather than received on derivatives related to Bonds and Discount Notes. As noted above, the fluctuation in earnings from the use of derivatives was acceptable because it enabled us to lower market risk exposure.

In the table above, "Gains (losses) on trading securities" consist of fixed-rate U.S. Treasury and GSE obligations that have been swapped to a variable rate. Trading securities are recorded at fair value, with changes in fair value reported in non-interest

income (loss). There are a number of factors that affect the fair value of these securities, such as changes in interest rates, the passage of time, and volatility. By hedging these trading securities, the gains or losses on these trading securities will generally be offset by the gains or losses on the associated interest rate swaps.

Non-Interest Expense

The following table presents non-interest expense.

	Three Months Ended March 31,
(In millions)	2023		2022
Non-interest expense
Compensation and benefits	$	14	$	14
Other operating expense	7		6
Finance Agency	3		2
Office of Finance	1		2
Other	3		2
Total non-interest expense	$	28	$	26

Our business is designed to support significant changes in asset levels without having to undergo material changes in staffing, operations, risk practices, or general resource needs. Accordingly, the components of non-interest expense generally remained stable in the periods shown.

Segment Information

Note 11 of the Notes to Unaudited Financial Statements presents information on our two operating business segments. We manage financial operations and market risk exposure primarily at the macro level, and within the context of the entire balance sheet, rather than exclusively at the level of individual segments. Under this approach, the market risk/return profile of each segment may not match, or possibly even have the same trends as, what would occur if we managed each segment on a stand-alone basis. The tables below summarize each segment's operating results for the periods shown.

Traditional Member Finance Segment

Net income improved in the first three months of 2023 compared to the same period of 2022 largely because of the rising interest rate environment, which benefited this segment as it resulted in higher earnings from capital. Additionally, net income improved because of higher average balances of Advances and MBS. However, the increase in profitability was partially offset by lower spreads earned on shorter-term and floating-rate assets (including those that have been swapped to a floating rate).

MPP Segment

Earnings from the MPP segment improved significantly in the first three months of 2023 compared to the same period of 2022 because of higher net interest income, which resulted primarily from the increase in interest rates. The MPP segment benefited from higher average short-term interest rates, which improved the spreads earned and increased the earnings generated from capital. Additionally, higher mortgage rates resulted in a lower volume of mortgage refinance activity, which reduced premium amortization.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT RISK MANAGEMENT

Market Risk

Market Value of Equity and Duration of Equity - Entire Balance Sheet

Two key measures of long-term market risk exposure are the sensitivities of the market value of equity and the duration of equity to changes in interest rates and other variables, as presented in the following tables for various instantaneous and permanent interest rate shocks (in basis points). Market value of equity represents the difference between the market value of total assets and the market value of total liabilities, including off-balance sheet items. The duration of equity provides an estimate of the change in market value of equity to further changes in interest rates. We compiled average results using data for each month end. Given the level of rates at certain time periods, some down rate shocks are nonparallel scenarios, with short-term rates decreasing less than long-term rates such that no rate falls below zero.

The mortgage assets portfolio normally accounts for almost all market risk exposure because of prepayment volatility that we cannot completely hedge while maintaining sufficient net spreads. The overall market risk exposure to changing interest rates was well within policy limits during the periods presented. At March 31, 2023, market risk exposure to falling and rising rate shocks remained stable.

Based on the totality of our risk analysis, we expect that overall profitability, defined as the level of ROE compared with short-term market rates, will be competitive over the long term unless interest rates increase further by large amounts in a short period of time. Substantial declines in long-term interest rates could decrease income temporarily before reverting to average levels. This temporary reduction in income would be driven by additional recognition of mortgage asset premiums as the incentive for borrowers to refinance results in faster than anticipated repayments of those mortgage assets. However, we believe the mortgage assets portfolio will continue to provide an acceptable risk-adjusted return consistent with our risk appetite philosophy.

Capital Adequacy

Retained Earnings

We must hold sufficient capital to protect against exposure to various risks, including market, credit, and operational risks. We regularly conduct a variety of measurements and assessments for capital adequacy. At March 31, 2023, our capital management policy set forth approximately $840 million as the minimum amount of retained earnings we believe is necessary to mitigate impairment risk.

The following table presents retained earnings.

(In millions)	March 31, 2023		December 31, 2022
Unrestricted retained earnings	$	869	$	841
Restricted retained earnings (1)	585		560
Total retained earnings	$	1,454	$	1,401

(1)     Pursuant to the FHLBank System's Joint Capital Enhancement Agreement we are not permitted to distribute as dividends.

As indicated in the table above, our current balance of retained earnings exceeds the policy minimum, which we expect will continue to be the case as we bolster capital adequacy over time by allocating a portion of earnings to the restricted retained earnings account.

Market Capitalization Ratios

We measure two sets of market capitalization ratios. One measures the market value of equity (i.e., total capital) relative to the par value of regulatory capital stock (which is GAAP capital stock and mandatorily redeemable capital stock). The other measures the market value of total capital relative to the book value of total capital, which includes all components of capital, and mandatorily redeemable capital stock. The measures provide a point-in-time indication of the FHLB's liquidation or franchise value and can also serve as a measure of realized or potential market risk exposure.

58

The following table presents the market value of equity to regulatory capital stock (excluding retained earnings) for several interest rate environments.

	March 31, 2023		December 31, 2022
Market Value of Equity to Par Value of Regulatory Capital Stock - Base Case (Flat Rates) Scenario	115	%	119	%
Market Value of Equity to Par Value of Regulatory Capital Stock - Down Shock (1)	119		124
Market Value of Equity to Par Value of Regulatory Capital Stock - Up Shock (2)	111		115

(1)    Represents a down shock of 200 basis points.

(2)    Represents an up shock of 200 basis points.

A base case value below 100 percent could indicate that, in the remote event of an immediate liquidation scenario involving redemption of all capital stock, capital stock may be returned to stockholders at a value below par. This could be due to experiencing risks that lower the market value of capital and/or to having an insufficient amount of retained earnings. In the first three months of 2023, the market capitalization ratios in the scenarios presented continued to be above our policy requirements. The base case ratio at March 31, 2023 was still well above 100 percent because retained earnings were 22 percent of regulatory capital stock and we maintained stable market risk exposure.

The following table presents the market value of equity to the book value of total capital and mandatorily redeemable capital stock.

	March 31, 2023		December 31, 2022
Market Value of Equity to Book Value of Capital - Base Case (Flat Rates) Scenario (1)	95	%	94	%
Market Value of Equity to Book Value of Capital - Down Shock (1)(2)	98		98
Market Value of Equity to Book Value of Capital - Up Shock (1)(3)	92		91

(1)    Capital includes total capital and mandatorily redeemable capital stock.

(2)    Represents a down shock of 200 basis points.

(3)    Represents an up shock of 200 basis points.

A base-case value below 100 percent indicates that we have realized or could realize risks (especially market risk), such that the market value of total capital owned by stockholders is below the book value of total capital. The base-case ratio of 95 percent at March 31, 2023 indicates that the market value of total capital is $396 million below the book value of total capital. In a scenario in which interest rates increase 200 basis points, the market value of total capital would be $642 million below the book value of total capital. This indicates that in a liquidation scenario, stockholders would not receive the full sum of their total equity ownership in the FHLB. We believe the likelihood of a liquidation scenario is extremely remote; and therefore, we accept the risk of diluting equity ownership in such a scenario.

Credit Risk

Overview

We believe our risk management practices, discussed below, minimize residual credit risk levels. At March 31, 2023, we had no loan loss reserves or impairment recorded for Credit Services, investments and derivatives and had a minimal amount of credit risk exposure in the MPP.

Credit Services

Overview: The objective of our credit risk management activities is to equalize risk exposure across members and counterparties to a zero level of expected losses. This approach is consistent with our conservative risk management principles and desire to have no residual credit risk related to Advances and Letters of Credit.

Collateral: We require each member to provide a security interest in eligible collateral before it can undertake any secured borrowing. Eligible loan collateral types include the following: single- and multi-family residential, home equity, commercial real estate, government guaranteed and farm real estate. Eligible security types include those that are government or agency backed, along with highly-rated private-label residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities. We have conservative eligibility criteria within each of the above asset types. The estimated value of pledged collateral is discounted in order to offset market, credit, and liquidity risks that may affect the collateral's realizable value in the event it must be liquidated. At March 31,

59

2023, total eligible pledged collateral of $500.3 billion resulted in total borrowing capacity of $410.2 billion of which $147.8 billion was used to support outstanding Advances and Letters of Credit. Borrowers often pledge collateral in excess of their collateral requirement to demonstrate access to liquidity and to have the ability to borrow additional amounts in the future. Over-collateralization by one member is not applied to another member.

Borrowing Capacity/Lendable Value: Lendable Value Rates (LVRs) represent the percent of collateral value net of the discount, or haircut, we apply for purposes of determining borrowing capacity. LVRs are determined by statistical analysis and management assumptions relating to historical price volatility, inherent credit risks, liquidation costs, and the current credit and economic environment. We apply LVR results to the estimated values of pledged assets. LVRs vary among pledged assets and members based on the member institution type, the financial strength of the member institution, the form of valuation, lien position, the issuer of bond collateral or the quality of securitized assets, the quality of the loan collateral as reflected in the manner in which it was underwritten, and the marketability of the pledged assets.

Internal Credit Ratings: We perform credit underwriting of our members and nonmember institutions and assign them an internal credit rating. These credit ratings are based on internal and third-party ratings models, credit analyses and consideration of credit ratings from independent credit rating organizations. Credit ratings are used in conjunction with other measures of credit risk in managing secured credit risk exposure.

Member Failures, Closures, and Receiverships: There have been no member failures in 2023 through the date of this report.

MPP

Overview: The residual amount of credit risk exposure to loans in the MPP is minimal, based on the same factors described in the 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Conventional Loan Portfolio Characteristics: At March 31, 2023, the weighted average loan-to-value ratios for conventional loans based on origination values and estimated current values were 73 percent and 49 percent, respectively. The estimated weighted average current loan-to-value ratio at March 31, 2023 was the same as the ratio at December 31, 2022 as the changes in home values have been relatively stable.

Credit Performance: The table below provides an analysis of conventional loans delinquent or in the process of foreclosure, along with the national average serious delinquency rate.

	Conventional Loan Delinquencies
(Dollars in millions)	March 31, 2023			December 31, 2022
Early stage delinquencies - unpaid principal balance (1)	$	30		$	31
Serious delinquencies - unpaid principal balance (2)	$	12		$	12
Early stage delinquency rate (3)	0.4		%	0.5		%
Serious delinquency rate (4)	0.2		%	0.2		%
National average serious delinquency rate (5)	1.3		%	1.4		%

(1)Includes conventional loans 30 to 89 days delinquent and not in foreclosure.

(2)Includes conventional loans that are 90 days or more past due or where the decision of foreclosure or a similar alternative such as pursuit of deed-in-lieu has been reported.

(3)Early stage delinquencies expressed as a percentage of the total conventional loan portfolio.

(4)Serious delinquencies expressed as a percentage of the total conventional loan portfolio.

(5)National average number of fixed-rate prime and subprime conventional loans that are 90 days or more past due or in the process of foreclosure is based on the most recent national delinquency data available. The March 31, 2023 rate is based on December 31, 2022 data.

Overall, the MPP has experienced a minimal amount of delinquencies, with delinquency rates continuing to be well below national averages. This further supports our view that the portfolio is comprised of high-quality, well-performing loans.

Credit Enhancements: Conventional mortgage loans are primarily supported against credit losses by some combination of credit enhancements (primary mortgage insurance (PMI) and the Lender Risk Account (LRA)). The LRA is a hold back of a portion of the initial purchase price to cover expected credit losses for a specific pool of loans. Starting after five years from the loan purchase date, we may return the hold back to Participating Financial Institutions (PFIs) if they manage credit risk to predefined acceptable levels of exposure on the pools of loans they sell to us. As a result, some pools of loans may have sufficient credit enhancements to recapture all losses while other pools of loans may not. The LRA had balances of $242

60

million and $244 million at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. For more information, see Note 5 of the Notes to Unaudited Financial Statements.

Credit Losses: Residual credit risk exposure depends on the actual and potential credit performance of the loans in each pool compared to the pool's equity (on individual loans) and credit enhancements. Our available credit enhancements at March 31, 2023 were ample and able to cover nearly all of the estimated gross credit losses. As a result, estimated credit losses at March 31, 2023 were less than $1 million. Estimated credit losses, after credit enhancements, are accounted for in the allowance for credit losses or as a charge off (i.e., a reduction to the principal of mortgage loans held for portfolio).

Separate from our allowance for credit losses analysis, we regularly analyze potential adverse scenarios of lifetime credit risk exposure for the loans in the MPP. Even under severely adverse macroeconomic scenarios, we expect credit losses to remain low.

Investments

Liquidity Investments: We hold liquidity investments that can be converted to cash and may be unsecured, guaranteed or supported by the U.S. government, or secured (i.e., collateralized). For unsecured liquidity investments, we invest in the instruments of investment-grade rated institutions, have appropriate and conservative limits on dollar and maturity exposure to each institution, and have strong credit underwriting practices, including active monitoring of credit quality of our counterparties and of the environment in which they operate. In addition, we believe the portion of our liquidity investments for which the investments are secured with collateral (secured resale agreements) present no credit risk exposure to us. Liquidity investments generally fluctuate because of changes in the amount of actual Advances, anticipated demand for Advances, regulatory liquidity requirements, the availability of acceptable net spreads, and the number of eligible counterparties that meet our unsecured credit risk criteria.

The following table presents the carrying value of liquidity investments outstanding in relation to the counterparties' lowest long-term credit ratings provided by Standard & Poor's, Moody's, and/or Fitch Advisory Services. Our internal ratings of these investments may differ from those obtained from Standard & Poor's, Moody's, and/or Fitch Advisory Services. The ratings displayed in this table should not be taken as an indication of future ratings.

Total liquidity investments	$	20,497	$	7,391	$	1,250	$	29,138

Some counterparties used to transact our securities purchased under agreements to resell are not rated by an NRSRO because they are not issuers of debt or are otherwise not required to be rated by an NRSRO. However, each of the counterparties are considered to have the equivalent of at least an investment grade rating based on our internal ratings resulting from a fundamental credit analysis. Securities purchased under agreements to resell are secured by the following types of collateral: U.S. Treasury obligations, U.S. agency/GSE obligations, or U.S. agency/GSE MBS. At March 31, 2023, the collateral received had long-term credit ratings of AA, based on the lowest long-term credit ratings of the issuer as provided by Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s, and/or Fitch Advisory Services. The terms of our securities purchased under agreements to resell are structured such that if the fair value of the underlying securities decreases below the fair value required as collateral, the counterparty must place an equivalent amount of additional securities as collateral or remit an equivalent amount of cash. Additionally, these investments primarily mature overnight. All overnight investments in securities purchased under agreements to resell outstanding at March 31, 2023 were repaid according to their respective contractual terms.

The following table presents the lowest long-term credit ratings provided by Standard & Poor's, Moody's, and/or Fitch Advisory Services of our unsecured investment credit exposure by the domicile of the counterparty or the domicile of the counterparty's immediate parent for U.S. branches and agency offices of foreign commercial banks. Our internal ratings of these investments may differ from those obtained from Standard & Poor's, Moody's, and/or Fitch Advisory Services. The ratings displayed in this table should not be taken as an indication of future ratings.

Total unsecured investment credit exposure	$	4,930	$	5,410	$	10,340

We are prohibited by Finance Agency regulation from investing in financial instruments issued by non-U.S. entities. Furthermore, we restrict a significant portion of unsecured lending to overnight maturities, which further limits credit risk exposure.

MBS:

GSE MBS

At March 31, 2023, $16.0 billion of MBS held were GSE securities issued by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, which provide credit safeguards by guaranteeing either timely or ultimate payments of principal and interest. We believe that the conservatorships of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac lower the chance that they would not be able to fulfill their credit guarantees.

MBS Issued by Other Government Agencies

We also invest in MBS issued and guaranteed by Ginnie Mae. These investments totaled $1.2 billion at March 31, 2023. We believe that the strength of Ginnie Mae's guarantee and backing by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government is sufficient to protect us against credit losses on these securities.

62

Derivatives

Credit Risk Exposure: We mitigate most of the credit risk exposure resulting from derivative transactions through collateralization or use of daily settled contracts. The table below presents the lowest long-term counterparty credit ratings provided by Standard & Poor's, Moody's, and/or Fitch Advisory Services for derivative positions to which we had credit risk exposure at March 31, 2023. The ratings displayed in this table should not be taken as an indication of future ratings.

(1)Represents derivative transactions cleared with LCH Ltd. and CME Clearing, the FHLB's clearinghouses. LCH Ltd. is rated AA- by Standard & Poor's, and CME Clearing is not rated, but its parent company, CME Group Inc., is rated Aa3 by Moody's and AA- by Standard & Poor's.

(2)Represents Mandatory Delivery Contracts.

Our exposure to cleared derivatives is primarily associated with the requirement to post initial margin through the clearing agent to the Derivatives Clearing Organizations. We pledge cash as collateral to satisfy this initial margin requirement. However, the use of cleared derivatives mitigates credit risk exposure because a central counterparty is substituted for individual counterparties.

At March 31, 2023, the net exposure of uncleared derivatives with residual credit risk exposure was less than $9 million. If interest rates rise or the composition of our derivatives change resulting in an increase to our gross exposure to uncleared derivatives, the contractual collateral provisions in these derivatives would limit our net exposure to acceptable levels.

Although we cannot predict if we will realize credit risk losses from any of our derivatives counterparties, we believe that all of the counterparties will be able to continue making timely interest payments and, more generally, to continue to satisfy the terms and conditions of their derivative contracts with us. As of March 31, 2023, we had a $0.4 billion notional amount of interest rate swaps with a subsidiary of our member, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., which also had outstanding credit services with us. We had a de minimis amount of credit exposure to this counterparty related to interest rate swaps outstanding given the collateral exchanged.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity Overview

We strive to be in a liquidity position at all times to meet the borrowing needs of our members and to meet all current and future financial commitments. This objective is achieved by managing liquidity positions to maintain stable, reliable, and cost-effective sources of funds while taking into account market conditions, member demand, and the maturity profile of assets and liabilities. At March 31, 2023, our liquidity position complied with the FHLBank Act, Finance Agency regulations, and internal policies.

The FHLBank System's primary source of funds is the sale of Consolidated Obligations in the capital markets. Our ability to obtain funds through the sale of Consolidated Obligations at acceptable interest costs depends on the financial market's

63

perception of the riskiness of the Obligations and on prevailing conditions in the capital markets, particularly the short-term capital markets. The System's favorable debt ratings, which takes into account our status as a GSE, and our effective risk management practices are instrumental in ensuring stable and satisfactory access to the capital markets.

We believe our liquidity position, as well as that of the System, continued to be strong during the first three months of 2023. Our overall ability to effectively fund our operations through debt issuances remained sufficient. Investor demand for System debt was robust in the first three months of 2023, as investors continued to prefer short-term, high-quality money market instruments. We believe there is a low probability of a liquidity or funding crisis in the System that would impair our ability to participate, on a cost-effective basis, in issuances of debt, service outstanding debt, maintain adequate capitalization, or pay competitive dividends. However, in light of the uncertainty regarding the U.S. government's debt ceiling, we are closely monitoring our liquidity position in preparation for the possibility of a disorderly market caused by potential government debt defaults.

The System works collectively to manage and monitor the System-wide liquidity and funding risks. Liquidity risk includes the risk that the System could have difficulty rolling over short-term Obligations when market conditions change, also called refinancing risk. The System has a large reliance on short-term funding; therefore, it has a sharp focus on managing liquidity risk to very low levels. As shown on the unaudited Statements of Cash Flows, in the first three months of 2023, our portion of the System's debt issuances totaled $108.5 billion for Discount Notes and $53.3 billion for Bonds. Access to short-term debt markets has been reliable because investors, driven by liquidity preferences and risk aversion, have sought the System’s short-term debt, which has resulted in strong demand for debt maturing in one year or less.

See the Notes to Unaudited Financial Statements for more detailed information regarding maturities of certain financial assets and liabilities which are instrumental in determining the amount of liquidity risk. In addition to contractual maturities, other assumptions regarding cash flows such as estimated prepayments, embedded call optionality, and scheduled amortization are considered when managing liquidity risks.

Liquidity Management and Regulatory Requirements

We manage liquidity risk by ensuring compliance with our regulatory liquidity requirements and regularly monitoring other metrics.

The Finance Agency establishes the expectations with respect to the maintenance of sufficient liquidity without access to the capital markets for a specified number of days, which was set as a period of between 10 to 30 calendar days in the base case. Under these expectations, all Advance maturities are assumed to renew, unless the Advances relate to former members who are ineligible to borrow new Advances. The maintenance of sufficient liquidity each day is intended to provide additional assurance that we can continue to provide Advances and Letters of Credit to members over an extended period without access to the capital markets. With one exception, we were in compliance with these liquidity requirements at all times during the three months ended March 31, 2023. On one day in the first quarter of 2023, our regulatory liquidity balances fell below 10 calendar days because of unusually large and unforeseen Advance demand in connection with the stress placed on the banking industry and financial markets in March 2023.

The Finance Agency also provides guidance related to asset/liability maturity funding gap limits. Funding gap metrics measure the difference between assets and liabilities that are scheduled to mature during a specified period of time and are expressed as a percentage of total assets. Although subject to change depending on conditions in the financial markets, the current regulatory requirement for funding gaps is between -10 percent to -20 percent for the three-month maturity horizon and is between -25 percent to -35 percent for the one-year maturity horizon. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we were operating within those limits.

To support our member deposits, we also must meet a statutory deposit reserve requirement. The sum of our investments in obligations of the United States, deposits in eligible banks or trust companies, and Advances with a final maturity not exceeding five years must equal or exceed the current amount of member deposits. The following table presents the components of this liquidity requirement.

(In millions)	March 31, 2023		December 31, 2022
Deposit Reserve Requirement
Total Eligible Deposit Reserves	$	125,383	$	80,428
Total Member Deposits	(1,276)		(1,043)
Excess Deposit Reserves	$	124,107	$	79,385

Member Concentration Risk

We regularly assess concentration risks from business activity. We believe that the concentration of Advance activity is consistent with our risk management philosophy, and the impact of borrower concentration on market risk, credit risk, and operational risk, after considering mitigating controls, is minimal.

Operational Risks

There were no material developments regarding our operational risk exposure during the first three months of 2023.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

There have been no material changes in the first three months of 2023 to our critical accounting policies and estimates. Our critical accounting policies and estimates are described in detail in our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The FHLB's management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluate the effectiveness of the FHLB's disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Based upon that evaluation, these two officers each concluded that, as of March 31, 2023, the FHLB maintained effective disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that it files under the Exchange Act is (1) accumulated and communicated to management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure and (2) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

The FHLB's management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluate the FHLB's internal control over financial reporting. Based upon that evaluation, these two officers each concluded that there were no changes in the FHLB's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2023 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the FHLB's internal control over financial reporting.
