Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
On April 9, 2018, the Board of Directors of the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco ("Bank") revised the Bank's Excess Stock Repurchase, Retained Earnings, and Dividend Framework (Framework) to change the Bank’s practice of repurchasing the surplus capital stock of all members and the excess capital stock of all former members from a quarterly schedule to a daily schedule. All repurchases of Bank capital stock are at the Bank’s discretion and subject to certain statutory and regulatory requirements, and the Bank’s Risk Management Policy and the Bank’s Capital Plan limitations. Surplus capital stock is defined as any stock holdings in excess of 115% of a member’s minimum stock requirement, and excess capital stock is defined as any stock holdings in excess of a shareholder’s minimum stock requirement. On each repurchase date, the Bank will calculate the amount of stock to be repurchased to ensure that each member and former member will continue to meet its minimum capital stock requirement after the repurchase. The Bank may change this practice at any time.
A copy of the Bank's member communication regarding the Bank's quarterly surplus and excess capital stock repurchase practice is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this report. The information being furnished pursuant to Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K and contained in Exhibit 99.1 shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liability of that section, and shall not be incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other document filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
