What key variables can a vendor consider to develop estimates of the amounts in the cash reinvestment portfolios at different points in time?
The amount held in the Corporate Credit Facility (CCF) cash reinvestment portfolio will vary depending primarily on:
- The level of ETF and bond holdings in the Primary Market Corporate Credit Facility (PMCCF) and Secondary Market Corporate Credit Facility (SMCCF) investment portfolios, including any additional purchases—information on the SMCCF and PMCCF portfolios can be accessed in the monthly reports published on the website of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Federal Reserve Board);
- The end date of the authorization of the Facilities by the Federal Reserve Board, currently scheduled for December 31, 2020;
- The levels of dividend payments on ETF holdings and coupon payments on bond holdings; and
- The CCF applying cash received through bonds being redeemed and maturing in accordance with the Credit Agreement between the CCF and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.
Further information on the Facilities including the program term sheets and FAQs is available on the New York Fed websites for the SMCCF and the PMCCF.
