TO:All Stockholders
(Individually Addressed)
SUBJECT:	Report for the Month

At the Bank

With the end of April 2009, we completed the twentieth month of extraordinary challenges affecting our entire economy, including the credit, banking and mortgage markets. Despite the continuing financial crisis, our liquidity position remains strong and our ability to access funds from the capital markets at acceptable costs is, we believe, sufficient to meet operational needs and the needs of the cooperative. We also believe that the FHLBNY continues to have de minimisrisk exposure from offering advances, purchasing mortgage loans, making investments, and executing derivative transactions. And most critically, we believe that we will continue to fulfill our role as an important provider of reliable and attractively priced wholesale funding to members.

We anticipate that the:

• FHLBNY will not incur any material Other-Than-Temporarily-Impaired (OTTI) charges;

• FHLBNY will continue redeeming excess capital stock each day;

• FHLBNY will remain strong and stable;

• FHLBNY will continue to meet all capital requirements;

• FHLBNY will achieve positive net income for the full year; and

• FHLBNY will make regular cash dividend declarations.

The cash dividend for the first quarter of 2009 is currently expected to be announced in late May, approximately seven weeks after the close of the calendar quarter. As reported earlier, this timing adjustment was made to allow additional time for the preparation and review of the Bank’s financials in conformance with accounting rules related to fair values.

Average advances in the month of March fell $1.3 billion from the previous month to $98.7 billion. We closed March at $99.4 billion compared to $100.4 billion at the end of February. This decline in advances is the result primarily of the national economic deleveraging and from the government funding/liquidity options available to our members. Whatever the level of immediate demand, we are pleased to provide stable, low-cost wholesale products through our cooperative to a network of established community lenders who have a proven track record of making good, sound mortgages that help to strengthen the economy.
