The Federal Home Loan Banks Office of Finance announced changes this week to some of their debt programs and said they will allow more securities dealers to participate in their diversity and inclusion program. The FHLBank is planning to incorporate other aspects of diversity, beyond what’s already been established, in order to help expand the scope of dealers eligible to participate in the program. The first change went into effect Jan. 10 when the minimum new issue par amount for negotiated callable bonds decreased. That number will drop from $15 million to $10 million when diversity and inclusion dealers participate in the underwriting group.
