Services for Financial Institutions
The Federal Reserve Bank of New York’s (the “New York Fed”) Account Access Portal (the “Portal”) provides a “one-stop shop” for financial institutions to request access to a master account and/or Federal Reserve financial services with the New York Fed. The Portal enables its users to submit an online access request on behalf of their institution, upload required information in connection with their institution’s request, and communicate with the New York Fed about the request.
As discussed in these Frequently Asked Questions, the Portal is only available to financial institutions located in the Second Federal Reserve District that do not have existing access to a master account and/or Federal Reserve financial services. Institutions that currently have access to a master account and/or Federal Reserve financial services should not use the Portal to request new services.
In deciding whether it will exercise its discretion to grant a financial institution’s request for access to a master account and/or Federal Reserve financial services, the New York Fed evaluates such access requests in accordance with the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System’s Guidelines for Evaluating Account and Services Requests. There is no specific timeframe in which an institution’s access request will be evaluated; the timeframe will depend on, among other things, the length of time it takes an institution to submit requested documents.
