• Par amount: $500,000,000; CUSIP: 3130B92K5.
• Security type: Consolidated obligation bond — Non‑callable, Variable Single Index Floater.
• Regulatory/context notes from the filing: consolidated obligations are joint and several obligations of the 11 Federal Home Loan Banks, are sold via the Office of Finance, and are backed only by the Federal Home Loan Banks (not guaranteed by the U.S. government). The FHFA can require one FHLBank to repay obligations for which another is the primary obligor.

Why It Matters This filing shows FHLBank Topeka raising short‑term funding through the joint consolidated obligations market. For investors, the key points are the $500M size, the variable interest feature, and that these securities are supported by the collective resources of the 11 Federal Home Loan Banks—not by a U.S. government guarantee. The filing also notes Schedule A’s par amounts may differ from GAAP amounts and that total consolidated obligations outstanding will be reported in the Bank’s periodic SEC filings.
