Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis Announces Third Quarter 2025 Dividends, Reports Earnings
INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 28, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Today the Board of Directors of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis (“FHLBank Indianapolis” or “Bank”) declared its third quarter 2025 dividends on Class B-2 activity-based capital stock and Class B-1 non-activity-based stock at annualized rates of 9.50% and 4.50%, respectively. The higher dividend rate on activity-based stock reflects the Board’s discretion under the Bank’s capital plan to reward members that use FHLBank Indianapolis in support of their needs.
The dividends will be paid in cash on October 29, 2025.
Earnings Highlights
Net income, for the three months ended September 30, 2025, was $87 million, a net decrease of $4 million compared to the corresponding period in the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to net unrealized losses on qualifying fair-value hedging relationships1 and an increase in voluntary contributions to affordable housing and community investment programs, partially offset by higher advance prepayment fees, net of swap termination fees.
Net income, for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, was $251 million, a net decrease of $24 million compared to the corresponding period in the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to net unrealized losses on qualifying fair-value and economic hedging relationships and a substantial increase in voluntary contributions to affordable housing and community investment programs, partially offset by higher advance prepayment fees, net of swap termination fees.
Affordable Housing Program Allocation
The Bank’s Affordable Housing Program (“AHP”) provides grant funding to support housing for low- and moderate-income families in communities served by its Michigan and Indiana members. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, AHP assessments2 totaled $29 million. Such required allocations will be available to the Bank’s members in 2026 to help address their communities’ affordable housing needs, including construction, rehabilitation, accessibility improvements and homebuyer down-payment assistance.
In addition, as part of the Bank’s commitment to further support its AHP and additional affordable housing and community investment programs, the Bank voluntarily contributed additional funding, in the nine months ended September 30, 2025, totaling $30 million, all of which has been recognized and reported in other expenses.
The Bank’s combined required and voluntary allocations recognized, in the nine months ended September 30, 2025, totaled $59 million, an increase of $10 million compared to the corresponding period in the prior year.

| Net income | $ | 87 | $ | 91 | $ | 251 | $ | 275 | ||||
| (a) | Includes hedging gains (losses) and net interest settlements on fair-value hedge relationships. The Bank uses derivatives, specifically interest-rate swaps, to hedge the risk of changes in the fair value of certain of its advances, available-for-sale securities and consolidated obligations. These derivatives are designated as fair-value hedges and, therefore, changes in the estimated fair value of the derivative, and changes in the fair value of the hedged item that are attributable to the hedged risk, are recorded in net interest income. |
| (b) | Includes impact of purchase discount (premium) recorded through mark-to-market gains (losses) on trading securities and net interest settlements on derivatives hedging trading securities, while generally offsetting interest income on trading securities is included in interest income. |
| (c) | Includes voluntary contributions to the Bank’s AHP and other affordable housing and community investment programs. |
Balance Sheet Highlights
Total assets, at September 30, 2025, were $86.8 billion, a net increase of $2.3 billion, or 3%, from December 31, 2024, primarily due to the increase in mortgage loans held for portfolio.
Advances 3
The carrying value of advances outstanding, at September 30, 2025, totaled $39.1 billion, a net decrease of $775 million, or 2%, from December 31, 2024. The par value of advances outstanding to depository institutions — comprising commercial banks, savings institutions and credit unions — decreased by 10%, while advances outstanding to insurance companies increased by 10%. As a percent of total advances outstanding at par value at September 30, 2025, advances to commercial banks and savings institutions were 47% and advances to credit unions were 14%, resulting in total advances to depository institutions of 61%, while advances to insurance companies were 39%.
In general, advances fluctuate in accordance with members’ funding needs, primarily determined by their deposit levels, mortgage pipelines, loan growth, investment opportunities, available collateral, other balance sheet strategies, and the cost of alternative funding options.
Mortgage Loans Held for Portfolio 4
Mortgage loans held for portfolio, at September 30, 2025, totaled $12.4 billion, a net increase of $1.6 billion, or 15%, from December 31, 2024, as the Bank’s purchases from its members exceeded principal repayments by borrowers. Purchases of mortgage loans from members, for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, totaled $2.5 billion.
In general, the Bank’s volume of mortgage loans purchased is affected by several factors, including interest rates, competition, the general level of housing and refinancing activity in the United States, consumer product preferences, the Bank’s balance sheet capacity, risk appetite, and regulatory considerations.
Liquidity Investments 5
Liquidity investments, at September 30, 2025, totaled $13.5 billion, a net increase of $576 million, or 4%, from December 31, 2024. The Bank’s liquidity remained well above regulatory requirements and continues to enable the Bank to be a reliable liquidity provider to its members.
Cash and short-term investments increased by $565 million, or 5%, to $12.4 billion. The portion of U.S. Treasury obligations classified as trading securities increased by $11 million, or 1%, to $1.1 billion. As a result of this activity, cash and short-term investments represented 92% of the total liquidity investments at September 30, 2025, while U.S. Treasury obligations represented 8%.
The total outstanding balance and composition of the Bank’s liquidity investments are influenced by its liquidity needs, regulatory requirements, actual and anticipated member advance activity, market conditions, and the availability of short-term investments at attractive interest rates, relative to the cost of funds.
Other Investment Securities
Other investment securities, which consist substantially of mortgage-backed securities and U.S. Treasury obligations classified as held-to-maturity or available-for-sale, at September 30, 2025, totaled $21.1 billion, a net increase of $894 million, or 4%, from December 31, 2024.
Consolidated Obligations 6
FHLBank Indianapolis’ consolidated obligations outstanding, at September 30, 2025, totaled $80.2 billion, a net increase of $2.1 billion, or 3%, from December 31, 2024, which reflected increased funding needs associated with the net increase in the Bank’s total assets.
Capital 7
Total capital, at September 30, 2025, was $4.4 billion, a net increase of $202 million, or 5%, from December 31, 2024. The net increase resulted primarily from members’ purchases of capital stock to support their advance activity and the growth in retained earnings, offset by the Bank’s repurchases of capital stock in the first quarter.
The Bank’s regulatory capital-to-assets ratio8, at September 30, 2025, was 5.45%, which exceeds all applicable regulatory capital requirements.

| 1 | The Bank’s net gains (losses) on derivatives fluctuate due to volatility in the overall interest-rate environment as the Bank hedges asset and/or liability risk exposures. In general, the Bank holds derivatives and associated hedged items to the maturity, call, or put date. Therefore, due to timing, nearly all of the cumulative net gains and losses for these financial instruments will generally reverse over the remaining contractual terms of the hedged item. However, there may be instances when the Bank terminates these instruments prior to the maturity, call or put date, which may result in a realized gain or loss. |
