Outlook


Slide 16

Financial Performance Drivers Interest rate movement Member activity levels Primarily advances Performance of the Bank’s mortgage investments MPF Program portfolio yields


Slide 17

Financial Performance Outlook Lower interest rates Interest rate decline will result in lower net income Lower member advance volume Continuation of late-2019 trend Continued paydown of high-yielding investments Agency and private-label mortgage-backed securities (MBS) Sustained paydowns within MPF Program portfolio Increasing expenses


Slide 18

Dividend Outlook For 2020, we anticipate maintaining similar dividend levels, subject to market conditions Lower interest rates and advance levels, along with mortgage paydowns, could contribute to: Strong, yet lower, financial performance The potential for lower dividend capacity in 2021 Lower Affordable Housing Program contribution We will continue to assess potential impact of the performance drivers throughout the year; membership update will be provided during a future member conference call The above reflects forward-looking information based on management’s expectations regarding economic and market conditions and the Bank’s financial condition and operating results.
