1    Amounts represent the application of the netting requirements that allow FHLBank to settle positive and negative positions and cash collateral, including accrued interest, held or placed with the same clearing agent and/or derivative counterparty. Cash collateral posted was $581,618,000 and $649,456,000 as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Cash collateral received was $61,586,000 and $28,452,000 as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
FHLBank carries derivative instruments at fair value on its Statements of Condition. Changes in fair value of the derivative hedging instrument and the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk for designated fair value hedges are recorded in net interest income in the same line as the earnings effect of the hedged item.

Gains (losses) on fair value hedges include unrealized changes in fair value as well as net interest settlements. For the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, FHLBank recorded net gains (losses) on derivatives and the related hedged items in fair value hedging relationships and the impact of those derivatives on FHLBank’s net interest income as presented in Table 6.2 (in thousands):

For uncleared derivative transactions, FHLBank has entered into bilateral security agreements with its counterparties with bilateral-collateral-exchange provisions that require all credit exposures be collateralized, subject to minimum transfer amounts.
Bilateral derivative transactions executed on or after September 1, 2022, are subject to two-way initial margin requirements if aggregate uncleared derivative exposure to a counterparty exceeds a specified threshold. The initial margin is required to be held at a third-party custodian, and the secured party can only take ownership upon the occurrence of certain events, including an event of default due to bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar proceeding. As of June 30, 2024, FHLBank was not required to pledge to or receive initial margin from bilateral derivative counterparties.

FHLBank utilizes two Derivative Clearing Organizations (Clearinghouse) for all cleared derivative transactions, LCH Limited and CME Clearing. At both Clearinghouses, initial margin is considered cash collateral. For cleared derivatives, the Clearinghouse determines initial margin requirements and generally, credit ratings are not factored into the initial margin. However, clearing agents may require additional initial margin to be posted based on credit considerations, including but not limited to credit rating downgrades. FHLBank was not required to post additional initial margin by its clearing agents as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

FHLBank’s net exposure on derivative agreements is presented in Note 9.
