Amid signals that the interest-rate cycle may shift, certain funding solutions can present value in managing liquidity, earnings, and interest-rate risk.
FHLBank Boston’s Mortgage Parternship Finance® (MPF®) 35 product has sharpened its pricing and value proposition at a time when the mortgage business is experiencing challenges due to higher interest rates. Due to some of the nuances of how the product is structured and how prices and price adjustments are made, different opportunities exist for Participating Financial Institutions (PFIs), members participating in the MPF Program, to create more value out of their mortgage activity. In times of constrained liquidity or robust refinancing, the MPF Program could be an attractive arrow in a PFI’s quiver.
With uncertainty surrounding the near-term path of interest rates, several funding strategies can be used to benefit from the changes in the yield curve.
