The Bank must also maintain a minimum capital stock-to-assets ratio of 2.0 percent, as measured on a daily average basis at each month end. The Bank was in compliance with this requirement at each of the month ends during the six months ended June 30, 2026. For the month ended June 30, 2026, the Bank's capital stock-to-assets ratio was 3.14%.
Members are required to maintain an investment in Class B Capital Stock equal to the sum of a membership investment requirement and an activity-based investment requirement. The membership investment requirement is currently 0.04 percent of each member’s total assets as of December 31, 2025, subject to a minimum of $1,000 and a maximum of $7,000,000. The activity-based investment requirement is 4.1 percent of outstanding advances and 0.1 percent of outstanding letters of credit, except as described below. Class B-1 Stock is used to meet the membership investment requirement and Class B-2 Stock is used to meet the activity-based investment requirement. All excess stock is held as Class B-1 Stock at all times.
As more fully described in the 2025 10-K (specifically, Note 15 to the audited financial statements on page F-39 of that report), the Bank previously offered two reduced stock advance programs wherein, for each program, the activity-based stock investment requirement was reduced from 4.1 percent to 2.0 percent for certain advances that were funded during specified periods. At June 30, 2026, the remaining balance of advances funded under these programs totaled $1,694,083,000.
Quarterly, the Bank typically repurchases a portion of members’ excess capital stock. Excess stock is defined as the amount of stock held by a member (or former member) in excess of that institution’s minimum investment requirement. The portion of members’ excess capital stock subject to repurchase is known as surplus stock. For the repurchases that occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2026, surplus stock was defined as the amount of stock held by a member shareholder in excess of 110 percent of the shareholder’s minimum investment requirement. For those repurchases, which occurred on March 23, 2026 and June 23, 2026, a member shareholder's surplus stock was not repurchased if: (1) the amount of that shareholder's surplus stock was $1,000,000 or less or (2) the shareholder was on restricted collateral status (subject to certain restrictions). On March 23, 2026 and June 23, 2026, the Bank repurchased surplus stock totaling $461,181,000 and $202,936,000, respectively, none of which was classified as mandatorily redeemable capital stock at that date. From time to time, the Bank may modify the definition of surplus stock or the timing and/or frequency of surplus stock repurchases.
On March 23, 2026 and June 23, 2026, the Bank also repurchased all excess stock held by non-member shareholders as of those dates. This excess stock, all of which was classified as mandatorily redeemable capital stock at those dates, totaled $47,284,000 and $16,637,000, respectively.
At June 30, 2026, the Bank’s excess stock totaled $0.8 billion, which represented 0.71 percent of the Bank’s total assets as of that date.
