NEW YORK, July 23, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Federal Home Loan Bank of New York (“FHLBNY”) today released its unaudited financial highlights for the quarter ended June 30, 2026.

“Throughout the first half of 2026, the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York has served as a reliable source of funding for our members to support the lending activities that strengthen communities across our District and beyond,” said Randolph C. Snook, president and CEO of the FHLBNY. “As we celebrate the 94^th anniversary of the FHLBank System, we remain focused on executing on our foundational liquidity mission, in support of the provision of local credit and broad financial stability.”

Highlights from the second quarter of 2026 include:

Net income for the quarter was $153.3 million, an increase of $0.2 million, or 0.1%, from net income of $153.1 million for the second quarter of 2025. Net interest income for the quarter was $213.1 million, a decrease of $1.4 million, or 0.7%, from $214.5 million in the second quarter of last year. This was offset by an increase in non-interest income of $9.4 million, or 48.5%, net of an increase in non-interest expense of $7.2 million, or 11.3%, relative to the second quarter of 2025. The increase in non-interest income was primarily due to an increase in net unrealized fair value gains on derivatives and trading securities held for liquidity management, and an increase in gains on investments for employee retirement plans. The increase in non-interest expense was primarily due to a modest increase in operating expenses and voluntary contributions. The slight decrease in net interest income primarily reflected lower market interest rates, partially offset by higher average interest-earning asset balances.
Return on average equity (“ROE”) for the quarter was 6.62% (annualized), compared to ROE of 7.20% for the second quarter of 2025, as higher advances balances during the period increased the FHLBNY’s levels of capital stock, while yields on advances decreased in light of lower market rates.
As of June 30, 2026, total assets were $197.9 billion, an increase of $41.4 billion, or 26.5%, from total assets of $156.5 billion at December 31, 2025. As of June 30, 2026, advances (par amount) were $127.7 billion, an increase of $35.2 billion, or 38.1%, from $92.5 billion at December 31, 2025. The remaining balance sheet growth was driven by the FHLBNY’s liquidity portfolio, in conjunction with an increase in advances.
As of June 30, 2026, total capital was $9.7 billion, an increase of $1.7 billion from total capital of $8.0 billion at December 31, 2025. The FHLBNY’s retained earnings increased by $0.1 billion to $2.7 billion as of June 30, 2026, of which $1.3 billion was unrestricted and $1.4 billion was restricted. At June 30, 2026, the FHLBNY was in compliance with its regulatory capital ratios and liquidity requirements.
The FHLBNY allocated $27.5 million from its second quarter 2026 earnings to support affordable housing and community development initiatives. This amount consisted of $17.1 million for the FHLBNY’s statutory Affordable Housing Program and $10.4 million in voluntary contributions for the FHLBNY’s other community support programs.

The FHLBNY expects to file its Form 10-Q for the second quarter of 2026 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on or before August 6, 2026.
