Federal Home Loan Bank of New York Announces Second Quarter 2025 Operating Highlights
NEW YORK, July 23, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The Federal Home Loan Bank of New York (“FHLBNY”) today released its unaudited financial highlights for the quarter ended June 30, 2025.
“Throughout the first half of 2025, the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York has continued to provide stable, reliable and low-cost funding to our members in support of their lending activities across our region and beyond,” said Randolph C. Snook, president and CEO of the FHLBNY. “Our second quarter results reflect our ongoing dedication to executing on this foundational purpose. Providing members with on-demand access to our liquidity helps extend credit to and reduce borrowing costs for the consumer and supports the creation of attainable homeownership opportunities. This is our mission, on which we have continued to deliver this year.”
Highlights from the second quarter of 2025 include:
- Net income for the quarter was $153.1 million, a decrease of $28.2 million, or 15.6%, from net income of $181.3 million for the second quarter of 2024. Net interest income for the quarter was $214.5 million, a decrease of $33.2 million, or 13.4%, from $247.7 million in the second quarter of last year. The decrease in net interest income was driven by a decrease in market interest rates and a decrease in average advances balances from the prior year period. Non-interest income increased by $2.1 million, or 12.3%, to $19.4 million from the second quarter of 2024.
- Return on average equity (“ROE”) for the quarter was 7.20% (annualized), compared to ROE of 8.54% for the second quarter of 2024.
- As of June 30, 2025, total assets were $167.8 billion, an increase of $7.5 billion, or 4.7%, from total assets of $160.3 billion at December 31, 2024. As of June 30, 2025, advances (par amount) were $104.9 billion, a decrease of $1.6 billion, or 1.5%, from $106.5 billion at December 31, 2024.
- Total capital was $8.4 billion as of both June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, as a decrease in capital stock, aligned with the decrease in advances balances, was offset by an increase in retained earnings. The FHLBNY’s retained earnings were $2.6 billion as of June 30, 2025; $1.3 billion of the retained earnings were unrestricted and $1.3 billion were restricted. At June 30, 2025, the FHLBNY was in compliance with its regulatory capital ratios and liquidity requirements.
- The FHLBNY allocated $17.0 million from its second quarter 2025 earnings for its Affordable Housing Program. The FHLBNY set aside an additional $4.2 million from the quarter’s earnings for voluntary contributions to affordable housing and community development initiatives.
The FHLBNY expects to file its Form 10-Q for the second quarter of 2025 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on or before August 7, 2025.
