Why It Matters
This filing documents new debt issuances that fund the FHLB Boston’s operations and liquidity. Retail investors should note the Bank is jointly and severally liable with the other FHLBanks for consolidated obligations; these securities are not U.S. government guaranteed. The amounts listed are par values reported for trading/commitment purposes and may differ from amounts reported under GAAP in periodic financial statements. Schedule A also excludes certain short‑term discount notes (maturities ≤1 year), so investors should consult the Bank’s periodic reports or the Office of Finance for the total outstanding consolidated obligations.
