Why It Matters
This filing notifies investors that FHLB Boston has committed to new debt issuances for which it is the primary obligor and that, by regulation, it shares joint and several liability with the other FHLBanks on all consolidated obligations. Investors should note these securities are secured only by the FHLBanks’ resources—not by the U.S. government—and that details on total consolidated obligations outstanding will appear in the Bank’s periodic SEC reports.
