The carrying values of trading securities included net unrealized fair value losses of $187.7 million at September 30, 2026 and losses

other liquidity needs as trading securities. In accordance with Federal Housing Finance Agency guidance, also referred to as U.S.
Federal Housing (FHFA or the Finance Agency), we do not participate in speculative trading practices.

(a)Amounts represent state and local housing finance agency obligations ("HFA") and U.S. Treasury Securities.
(b)Amounts represent specialized third-party pricing vendors’ estimates of gains/losses of AFS securities; market pricing is based
on historical amortized cost adjusted for pay downs and amortization of premiums and discounts; fair value unrealized gains
and losses are before adjusting book values for hedge basis adjustments and will equal market values of AFS securities recorded
in AOCI. Fair value hedges were executed to mitigate the interest rate risk of the hedged fixed-rate securities due to changes in
the designated benchmark rate.
(c)Amounts represent fair value hedging basis due to changes in the benchmark rate and were recorded as an adjustment to the
carrying values of hedged securities; the adjustments impacted the unrealized market value gains and losses. In the table above,
the benchmark hedging basis adjustments were reported separately from the market-based prices of ASC 815 qualifying hedges
to provide greater clarity to market-based pricing of the securities.
Credit Loss Analysis of AFS Securities
The Bank evaluates its individual AFS securities for impairment by comparing the security’s fair value to its amortized cost.
Substantially all of these securities are GSE-issued and carry an implicit or explicit U.S. government guarantee. Based on the
analysis, no allowance for credit losses was recorded on these AFS securities at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
At September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, unrealized fair value losses have been aggregated in the table below by the length of
time a security was in a continuous unrealized loss position based on market-based pricing and excluding the effects of hedge basis
adjustments.
The following table summarizes available-for-sale securities with estimated fair values below their amortized cost basis (in
thousands):

(a)Unrecognized gross holding gains and losses represent the difference between fair value and carrying value.
(b)Commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS) are Agency issued securities, collateralized by income-producing “multi-
family properties.” Eligible property types include standard conventional multi-family apartments, affordable multi-family
housing, seniors housing, student housing, military housing, and rural rent housing.
(c)Amortized cost — For securities that were deemed impaired, amortized cost represents unamortized cost less credit losses, net of
credit recoveries (reversals) due to improvements in cash flows.
Securities Pledged
There were no pledged HTM securities at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, to the FDIC in connection with deposits
maintained by the FDIC at the FHLBNY. The FDIC does not have rights to sell or repledge the collateral unless the FHLBNY
defaults under the terms of its deposit arrangements with the FDIC.
Redemption Terms
Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or
without call or prepayment features. The amortized cost and estimated fair value of held-to-maturity securities, arranged by
contractual maturity, were as follows (in thousands):
