| Commitments and Contingencies | Note 19. Commitments and Contingencies. The following table summarizes off-balance sheet commitments and contingencies (in thousands):
(a)Financial letters of credit — Standby letters of credit are executed for a fee on behalf of members to facilitate residential housing, community lending, and members’ asset/liability management or to provide liquidity. A standby letter of credit is a financing arrangement between the FHLBNY and its member. Members assume an unconditional obligation to reimburse the FHLBNY for value given by the FHLBNY to the beneficiary under the terms of the standby letter of credit. The FHLBNY may, in its discretion, permit the member to finance repayment of their obligation by receiving a collateralized advance. The Bank did not record credit losses on off-balance sheet arrangements for any periods in this report. Lease Commitments Operating Leases: In compliance with the guidance under Topic 842, Leases, we recognize in our Statements of Condition all leases with lease terms greater than twelve months as a lease liability with a corresponding right-of-use (ROU) asset. At June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the FHLBNY was obligated under a number of noncancelable leases, predominantly operating leases for premises. These leases generally have terms of 15 years or less that contain escalation clauses that will increase rental payments. Operating leases also include backup datacenters and certain office equipment. Operating lease liabilities and operating lease ROU assets are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term. The future lease payments are discounted at a rate that represents the FHLBNY’s borrowing rate for its own debt (Consolidated obligation bonds) of a similar term. Operating lease ROU assets include any lease prepayments made, plus any initial direct costs incurred, less any lease incentives received. Rental expense associated with operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Premise rental expense is included in occupancy expense, and datacenter and other lease expenses are included in other operating expense in the Statements of Income. Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are reported in the Statements of Condition. The following tables provide summarized information on our operating leases (dollars in thousands):
(a)We have elected to exclude immaterial amounts of short-term operating lease liabilities in the Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities.
Finance Lease: In December 2023, the Bank entered into a 5-year finance lease for computer equipment. The finance lease liability and finance lease ROU asset are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term. The lease liability was $1.3 million as of June 30, 2026 and $1.6 million as of December 31, 2025. The finance lease ROU asset was $1.3 million as of June 30, 2026 and $1.5 million as of December 31, 2025.
