The Bank's long-term available-for-sale securities portfolio, which is comprised substantially of U.S. agency debentures and U.S. agency commercial MBS, totaled $16.7 billion at June 30, 2019, as compared to $16.1 billion at March 31, 2019 and $15.8 billion at December 31, 2018. At June 30, 2019, March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Bank also held a $0.1 billion long-term U.S. Treasury Note classified as trading.

The Bank's short-term liquidity portfolio, which is comprised substantially of overnight interest-bearing deposits, overnight federal funds sold, overnight reverse repurchase agreements, U.S. Treasury Bills and U.S. Treasury Notes, totaled $14.4 billion at June 30, 2019, compared to $12.4 billion at March 31, 2019 and $12.2 billion at December 31, 2018.

The Bank's retained earnings increased to $1.155 billion at June 30, 2019 from $1.121 billion at March 31, 2019 and $1.081 billion at December 31, 2018. On June 26, 2019, a dividend of $19.3 million was paid to the Bank's shareholders.
