Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis
Notes to Financial Statements
(Unaudited, $ amounts in thousands unless otherwise indicated)


Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

We use certain acronyms and terms throughout these notes to financial statements, which are defined in the Glossary of Terms. Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms "Bank," "we," "us," and "our" refer to the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis or its management.

Basis of Presentation. The accompanying interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and SEC requirements for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and notes thereto, which are included in our 2016 Form 10-K.

The financial statements contain all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments were of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full calendar year or any other interim period.

Our significant accounting policies and certain other disclosures are set forth in our 2016 Form 10-K in Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. There have been no significant changes to these policies through March 31, 2017, except for our policy on derivatives, which has been updated to reflect changes made to the CME rulebook.

Derivatives. We record derivative instruments, related cash collateral (including initial and variation margin received or pledged/posted) and associated accrued interest on a net basis, by clearing agent and/or by counterparty when the netting requirements have been met, as either derivative assets or derivative liabilities at their estimated fair values. If these netted amounts are positive, they are classified as an asset and, if negative, they are classified as a liability.

We use two clearinghouses for all cleared derivative transactions, LCH and CME. Effective January 3, 2017, CME made certain amendments to its rulebook, including changing the legal characterization of variation margin payments to be daily settled contracts, rather than cash collateral. Variation margin payments related to LCH contracts continue to be characterized as cash collateral. Initial margin continues to be considered by both clearinghouses as cash collateral.

Use of Estimates. When preparing financial statements in accordance with GAAP, we are required to make subjective assumptions and estimates that may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of income and expense. The most significant estimates include derivatives and hedging activities, fair value estimates, the provision for credit losses, and OTTI. Although the reported amounts and disclosures reflect our best estimates, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates.

Reclassifications. We have reclassified certain amounts from the prior period to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on net income, total comprehensive income, total capital, or net cash flows.

Note 2 - Recently Adopted and Issued Accounting Guidance

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance.

Contingent Put and Call Options in Debt Instruments. On March 14, 2016, the FASB issued amendments to clarify the requirements for assessing whether contingent call (put) options that can accelerate the payment of principal on debt instruments are clearly and closely related to their debt host contracts. The guidance requires entities to apply only the four-step decision sequence when assessing whether the economic characteristics and risks of call (put) options are clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of their debt hosts. Consequently, when a call (put) option is contingently exercisable, an entity does not have to assess whether the event that triggers the ability to exercise a call (put) option is related to interest rates or credit risks.

This amended guidance was effective for the interim and annual periods beginning on January 1, 2017. The adoption of this guidance on January 1, 2017 had no effect on our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.





Notes to Financial Statements, continued
(Unaudited, $ amounts in thousands unless otherwise indicated)


Recently Issued Accounting Guidance.

Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities. On March 30, 2017, the FASB issued amendments to shorten the amortization period for certain callable debt securities purchased at a premium. Specifically, the amendments require the premium to be amortized to the earliest call date. No change is required for securities purchased at a discount.

This guidance is effective beginning on January 1, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The guidance should be applied using a modified retrospective method through a cumulative-effect adjustment directly to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. We are in the process of evaluating this guidance; therefore, its effect on our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows has not yet been determined.

Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost. On March 10, 2017, the FASB issued amendments to improve the presentation of net periodic pension cost and net periodic postretirement benefit cost. The amendments require that an employer disaggregate the service cost component from the other components of net benefit cost. The amendments also provide explicit guidance on how to present the service cost component and the other components of net benefit cost in the income statement, and allow only the service cost component to be eligible for capitalization.

This guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on January 1, 2018, and early adoption is permitted. This guidance should be applied retrospectively for the presentation of the service cost component and the other components of net periodic pension cost and net periodic postretirement benefit cost in the income statement and prospectively, on and after the effective date, for the capitalization of the service cost component of net periodic pension cost and net periodic postretirement benefit. We are in the process of evaluating this guidance; therefore, its effect on our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows has not yet been determined.

Contractual Maturity. The amortized cost and estimated fair value of non-MBS AFS securities by contractual maturity are presented below. MBS are not presented by contractual maturity because their actual maturities will likely differ from contractual maturities as borrowers have the right to prepay their obligations with or without prepayment fees.

Realized Gains and Losses. There were no sales of AFS securities during the three months ended March 31, 2017. As of March 31, 2017, we had no intention of selling the AFS securities in an unrealized loss position nor did we consider it more likely than not that we will be required to sell these securities before our anticipated recovery of each security's remaining amortized cost basis.

For private-label ABS, the total of unrealized losses does not agree to total gross unrecognized holding losses at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 of $701 and $780, respectively. Total unrealized losses include non-credit-related OTTI losses recorded in AOCI of $97 and $103, respectively, and gross unrecognized holding gains on previously OTTI securities of $39 and $40, respectively.

Note 5 - Other-Than-Temporary Impairment

OTTI Evaluation Process and Results - Private-label RMBS and ABS. On a quarterly basis, we evaluate for OTTI our individual AFS and HTM investment securities that have been previously OTTI or are in an unrealized loss position.

Significant Inputs. The FHLBanks developed a short-term housing price forecast with projected changes ranging from a decrease of 5% to an increase of 10% over a twelve-month period. For the vast majority of housing markets, the changes range from 0% to an increase of 6%. Thereafter, a unique path is projected for each geographic area based on an internally developed framework derived from historical data.

The following table presents the significant modeling assumptions used to determine the amount of credit loss recognized in earnings during the three months ended March 31, 2017 on the one security for which an OTTI was determined to have occurred, as well as the related current credit enhancement.

Results of OTTI Evaluation Process - Private-label RMBS and ABS. As part of our evaluation, we consider whether we intend to sell each security and whether it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security before its anticipated recovery of amortized cost.

If either of these conditions is met, we recognize an OTTI loss in earnings equal to the entire difference between the debt security's amortized cost and its estimated fair value at the statement of condition date. We did not have any such change in intent or likelihood during the three months ended March 31, 2017.

For those remaining securities that meet neither of these conditions, we performed a cash flow analysis to determine whether we expect to recover the entire amortized cost of each security. As a result of our analysis, on one security previously impaired, OTTI credit losses of $82 and $0 were recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016. We determined that the unrealized losses on the remaining private-label RMBS and ABS were temporary as we expect to recover the entire amortized cost.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Evaluation Process and Results - All Other AFS and HTM Securities.

Other U.S. and GSE Obligations and TVA Debentures. For other U.S. obligations, GSE obligations, and TVA debentures, we determined that, based on current expectations, the strength of the issuers' guarantees through direct obligations of or support from the United States government is sufficient to protect us from any losses. As a result, all of the gross unrealized losses as of March 31, 2017 are considered temporary.

In accordance with the Final Membership Rule, captive insurance companies that were admitted as FHLBank members on or after September 12, 2014 repaid all of their outstanding advances and had their memberships terminated by February 19, 2017.

Under the Final Membership Rule, captive insurance companies that were admitted as FHLBank members prior to September 12, 2014, and do not meet the new definition of "insurance company" or fall within another category of institution that is eligible for FHLBank membership, shall have their memberships terminated no later than February 19, 2021. Prior to termination, new advances to such members will be subject to certain restrictions relating to maturity dates and the ratio of advances to the captive insurer's total assets. The outstanding advances to these captive insurers mature on various dates through 2025.

Credit Risk Exposure and Security Terms. At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, our top five borrowers held 45% and 43%, respectively, of total advances outstanding, at par. We held sufficient collateral to secure the advances to these borrowers.

Includes loans for which the decision of foreclosure or similar alternative, such as pursuit of deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, has been reported. Loans in process of foreclosure are included in past due categories depending on their delinquency status, but are not necessarily considered to be on non-accrual status. For additional discussion, see Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in our 2016 Form 10-K.
(2) 
Represents loans 90 days or more past due (including loans in process of foreclosure) expressed as a percentage of the total recorded investment in mortgage loans. The percentage excludes principal and interest amounts previously paid in full by the servicers on conventional loans that are pending resolution of potential loss claims. Servicers purchase many government loans, including FHA loans, when certain criteria are met.
(3) 
Although our past due scheduled/scheduled MPP loans are classified as loans past due 90 days or more based on the mortgagor's payment status, we do not consider these loans to be on non-accrual status. For additional discussion, see Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in our 2016 Form 10-K.

However, the MPP allowance for loan losses as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 includes $92 and $70, respectively, for these potential claims.

Individually Evaluated Impaired Loans. The tables below present the conventional loans individually evaluated for impairment. The first table presents the recorded investment, UPB and related allowance associated with these loans, while the next table presents the average recorded investment of these loans and related interest income recognized. Due to the minimal change in terms of modified loans (i.e., no principal forgiven), our pre-modification recorded investment in TDRs was not materially different than the post-modification recorded investment.

Cash collateral pledged to counterparties at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 totaled $51,815 and $35,422, respectively. Cash collateral received from counterparties at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 totaled $58,065 and $55,793, respectively.

(1) 
Includes the effect of derivatives in fair-value hedging relationships on net interest income that is recorded in the interest income/expense line item of the respective hedged items. Excludes the interest income/expense of the respective hedged items, which fully offset the interest income/expense of the derivatives, except to the extent of any hedge ineffectiveness. Net interest settlements on derivatives that are not in fair-value hedging relationships are reported in other income (loss). These amounts do not include the effect of amortization/accretion related to fair value hedging activities.

Managing Credit Risk on Derivatives. We are subject to credit risk due to the risk of nonperformance by the counterparties to our derivative transactions.

For our uncleared derivatives, we have credit support agreements that contain provisions requiring us to post additional collateral with our counterparties if there is deterioration in our credit rating. If our credit rating is lowered by an NRSRO, we could be required to deliver additional collateral on uncleared derivative instruments in net liability positions. The aggregate estimated fair value of all uncleared derivative instruments with credit risk-related contingent features that were in a net liability position (before cash collateral and related accrued interest on cash collateral) at March 31, 2017 was $9,733, for which we have posted collateral, including accrued interest, with an estimated fair value of $4,790 in the normal course of business. In addition, we held other derivative instruments in a net liability position of $37 that are not subject to credit support agreements containing credit risk-related contingent features. If our credit rating had been lowered by an NRSRO (from an S&P equivalent of AA+ to AA), we could have been required to deliver up to an additional $500 of collateral (at estimated fair value) to our uncleared derivative counterparties at March 31, 2017.

For cleared derivatives, the clearinghouse is our counterparty. We use two clearinghouses for all cleared derivative transactions, LCH and CME. Collateral is required to be posted daily for changes in the value of cleared derivatives to mitigate each counterparty's credit risk. The clearinghouse notifies the clearing agent of the required initial and variation margin, and the clearing agent notifies us. The requirement that we post initial and variation margin through the clearing agent for the benefit of the clearinghouse exposes us to institutional credit risk in the event that the clearing agent or clearinghouse fails to meet its obligations.

Effective January 3, 2017, CME made certain amendments to its rulebook, including changing the legal characterization of variation margin payments to be daily settled contracts, rather than cash collateral. Variation margin payments related to LCH contracts continue to be characterized as cash collateral. Initial margin continues to be considered by both clearinghouses as cash collateral.

For cleared derivatives, the clearinghouse determines margin requirements, into which credit ratings are not generally factored. However, clearing agents may require additional margin to be posted by us based on credit considerations, including but not limited to any credit rating downgrades. At March 31, 2017, we were not required by our clearing agents to post any additional margin.

Note 10 - Consolidated Obligations

In addition to being the primary obligor for our portion of consolidated obligations (i.e., those issued on our behalf), we are jointly and severally liable with each of the other FHLBanks for the payment of the principal and interest on all FHLBank outstanding consolidated obligations. The par values of the FHLBanks' outstanding consolidated obligations at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 totaled $959.3 billion and $989.3 billion, respectively.

In accordance with the Final Membership Rule, captive insurance companies that were admitted as FHLBank members on or after September 12, 2014 had their memberships terminated by February 19, 2017. As a result, all of their outstanding Class B stock, totaling $3,021 at December 31, 2016, was repurchased on or before February 19, 2017.

Captive insurance companies that were admitted as FHLBank members prior to September 12, 2014, and do not meet the new definition of "insurance company" or fall within another category of institution that is eligible for FHLBank membership, shall have their memberships terminated no later than February 19, 2021. Upon termination, all of their outstanding Class B stock shall be repurchased, or redeemed after a five-year redemption period.

As a result of, and effective with, the Final Membership Rule in February 2016, we reclassified all of the outstanding Class B stock of our captive insurance company members totaling $178,898 to MRCS.

We measure the performance of each segment based upon the net interest spread of the underlying portfolio(s). Therefore, each segment's performance begins with net interest income. Direct other income and expense items also affect each segment's results. Direct other income/expense related to the Traditional segment includes the direct earnings impact of derivatives and hedging activities related to advances and investments as well as all other income and expense not associated with mortgage loans. The Mortgage Loans segment includes the direct earnings impact of derivatives and hedging activities as well as direct compensation, benefits and other expenses (including an allocation for indirect overhead) associated with operating the MPP and MPF Program and volume-driven costs associated with master servicing and quality control fees. The assessments related to AHP have been allocated to each segment based upon its proportionate share of income before assessments.

Pledged Collateral. At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we had pledged cash collateral, at par, of $51,815 and $35,421, respectively, to counterparties and clearing agents. Additionally, at March 31, 2017, variation margin for daily settled contracts totaled $33,642. At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we had not pledged any securities as collateral.

Legal Proceedings. We are subject to legal proceedings arising in the normal course of business. We record an accrual for a loss contingency when it is probable that a loss for which we could be liable has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. After consultation with legal counsel, management does not anticipate that the ultimate liability, if any, arising out of these proceedings could have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Presentation 

This discussion and analysis by management of the Bank's financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our 2016 Form 10-K and the Financial Statements and related Notes to Financial Statements contained in Item 1. Financial Statements.

As used in this Item, unless the context otherwise requires, the terms "Bank," "we," "us," and "our" refer to the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis or its management. We use certain acronyms and terms throughout this Item that are defined in the Glossary of Terms.

Unless otherwise stated, amounts disclosed in this Item are rounded to the nearest million; therefore, dollar amounts of less than one million may not be reflected and, due to rounding, may not appear to agree to the amounts presented in thousands in the Financial Statements and related Notes to Financial Statements. Amounts used to calculate dollar and percentage changes are based on numbers in thousands. Accordingly, calculations based upon the disclosed amounts (millions) may not produce the same results.

Executive Summary
 
Overview. We are a regional wholesale bank that: makes secured loans in the form of advances to our members; purchases whole mortgage loans from our members; purchases other investments; and provides other financial services to our members. 

We are wholly owned by our member institutions. All members are required to purchase a minimum amount of our Class B capital stock as a condition of membership. Pursuant to our capital plan, members may be required to purchase additional stock to support their use of our products and services.

Our principal source of funding is the proceeds from the sale to the public of FHLBank debt instruments, called consolidated obligations, which are the joint and several obligation of all FHLBanks. We obtain additional funds from deposits, other borrowings, and the sale of capital stock to our members.

Our primary source of revenue is interest earned on advances, mortgage loans, and long- and short-term investments.
 
Our net interest income is primarily determined by the interest spread between the interest rate earned on our assets and the interest rate paid on our share of the consolidated obligations. We use funding and hedging strategies to manage the related interest-rate risk.

We group our products and services within two operating segments:

Traditional, which consists of (i) credit products (including advances, letters of credit, and lines of credit), (ii) investments (including federal funds sold, securities purchased under agreements to resell, AFS securities and HTM securities) and (iii) correspondent services and deposits; and
Mortgage loans, which consist of (i) mortgage loans purchased from our members through our MPP and (ii) participating interests purchased in 2012 - 2014 from the FHLBank of Topeka in mortgage loans originated by certain of its PFIs under the MPF Program.
 
Economic Environment. The Bank’s financial performance is influenced by the level and volatility of market interest rates, national and regional economic conditions, and the strength of housing markets.

In March 2017, the FOMC increased the federal funds target rate by 25 bps from 0.75% to 1.0%, citing a strengthening labor market and a moderate pace of economic activity expansion. Positive trends in household spending and job gains were cited but were partially offset by a softening of business fixed investment and net exports. The FOMC noted that the inflation rate is near, but remains below, the 2% objective. The FOMC also stated its intent to maintain its accommodative policy of reinvesting principal payments received from its agency debt and MBS holdings. Yields on U.S. Treasuries were fairly stable during the first quarter of 2017, with the 10-year yield ranging from 2.32% to 2.61%, ending the quarter at 2.40%.




U.S. GDP increased at an annual rate of 0.7% during the first quarter of 2017 based on the "advance" estimate. This estimate lags the fourth quarter of 2016 increase of 2.1% as well as the 1.6% GDP growth for 2016, according to the Bureau of Economic Analysis. Nonresidential fixed investment, exports and personal consumption expenditures were cited as positive contributors to GDP for the first quarter of 2017. Private inventory investment, together with slowing federal, state and local government spending, negatively impacted growth for the quarter.

The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported modest job growth nationally during the first quarter of 2017, citing growth in mining and the professional and business services sectors as contributors. The March 2017 U.S. unemployment rate of 4.5% continued a pattern of slowly declining rates since March 2015. Indiana and Michigan’s preliminary unemployment rates for March 2017 were 3.9% and 5.1%, respectively. Each state's preliminary rate is lower than its rate for the first two months of the quarter.

Freddie Mac’s March 27, 2017 Outlook cited the improvement in economic growth as a driver of a strong housing market in 2016. However, rising interest rates are expected to slow the pace of mortgage originations, primarily in the refinance market. Housing affordability was noted as having the potential to constrain purchase activity as home prices are increasing at a higher rate than household income growth.

Indiana University’s Center for Economic Model Research projects an annual income growth rate for Indiana of 4.5% through 2019, slightly above its national projection of 4.4% for the same period. Indiana’s unemployment rate is projected to increase slowly from its 2016 rate of 4.1% through 2019. The University of Michigan Research Seminar in Quantitative Economics projects Michigan’s job growth rate to taper off following a strong 2016, settling in the 0.7% to 1.1% range through 2018. Professional and business services along with construction are expected to drive employment growth.

Impact on Operating Results. Market interest rates and trends affect yields and margins on earning assets, including advances, purchased mortgage loans, and our investment portfolio, which contribute to our overall profitability. Additionally, market interest rates drive mortgage origination and prepayment activity, which can lead to both favorable and unfavorable interest margin volatility in our MPP and MBS portfolios.

Lending and investing activity by our member institutions is a key driver for our balance sheet and income growth. Such activity is a function of both prevailing interest rates and economic activity. Positive economic trends can be expected to drive interest rates higher, which could impair growth of the mortgage market. A less active mortgage market could affect demand for advances and activity levels in our MPP. However, borrowing patterns between our insurance company members and depository members tend to differ during various economic and market conditions, thereby easing the potential magnitude of our core business fluctuations during business cycles. Member demand for liquidity during stressed market conditions can lead to growth in advances.

Local economic factors relating to the housing market, including interest rates and housing affordability, influence demand for advances and MPP sales activity by our member financial institutions in Indiana and Michigan.

The increase in net income for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 was primarily due to higher net interest income, partially offset by higher net losses on derivatives and hedging activities.

The increase in total OCI for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 was primarily due to an increase in the unrealized gains on non-OTTI AFS securities.

The increase in total assets at March 31, 2017 compared to December 31, 2016 was attributable to a net increase in advances and investments. The increase in total liabilities at March 31, 2017 compared to December 31, 2016 was attributable to a net increase in consolidated obligations to fund our asset growth. The increase in total capital at March 31, 2017 compared to December 31, 2016 was primarily as a result of members' purchases of additional capital stock, other comprehensive income and the growth of retained earnings.

Consists of AFS and HTM securities. The average balances of investment securities are based on amortized cost; therefore, the resulting yields do not reflect changes in the estimated fair value of AFS securities that are included as a component of OCI, nor do they reflect OTTI-related non-credit losses. Interest income/expense includes the effect of associated derivative transactions.
(3) 
Interest income/expense and average yield include all other components of interest, including the impact of net interest payments or receipts on derivatives in qualifying hedge relationships, amortization of hedge accounting adjustments, and prepayment fees on advances.
(4) 
Consists of interest-bearing deposits, loans to other FHLBanks (if applicable), and grantor trust assets that are carried at estimated fair value. Includes the rights or obligations to cash collateral, except for variation margin payments characterized as daily settled contracts.
(5) 
Includes changes in the estimated fair value of AFS securities and the effect of OTTI-related non-credit losses on AFS and HTM securities.
(6)
Annualized net interest income expressed as a percentage of the average balance of interest-earning assets.




Yields. The yield on total interest-earning assets for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was 1.54%, an increase of 24 bps compared to the same period in 2016, resulting primarily from higher yields on advances and investment securities, partially offset by lower yields on mortgage loans. The decrease in the yields on mortgage loans was due to declining mortgage rates in 2016. The cost of total interest-bearing liabilities for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was 1.16%, an increase of 21 bps from the prior year period due to higher funding costs on consolidated obligations. The net effect was an increase in the net interest spread to 0.38% for the three months ended March 31, 2017 from 0.35% for the three months ended March 31, 2016.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Average Balances. The average balances of interest-earning assets for the three months ended March 31, 2017 increased compared to the same period in 2016, largely due to advances, mortgage loans and investment securities. The average amount of advances outstanding increased by 7%, generally driven by member funding needs. The increase in the average balances of investment securities was due primarily to purchases of GSE debentures and GSE MBS. Additionally, the average outstanding amount of mortgage loans held for portfolio increased by 16% due to strong demand by our members for MPP Advantage. The increase in average interest-bearing liabilities was due to an increase in consolidated obligations to fund the increases in the average balances of all interest-earning assets.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Provision for Credit Losses. The change in the provision for credit losses for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 was insignificant.

The decrease in total other income for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 was primarily due to net losses on derivatives and hedging activities.

Net Gains (Losses) on Derivatives and Hedging Activities. Our net gains (losses) on derivatives and hedging activities fluctuate due to volatility in the overall interest rate environment as we hedge our asset and liability risk exposures. In general, we hold derivatives and associated hedged items to the maturity, call, or put date. Therefore, due to timing, nearly all of the cumulative net gains and losses for these financial instruments will generally reverse over the remaining contractual terms of the hedged items. However, there may be instances when we terminate these instruments prior to the maturity, call or put date. Terminating the financial instrument or hedging relationship may result in a realized gain or loss. See Notes to Financial Statements - Note 9 - Derivatives and Hedging Activities for more information.

For those hedging relationships that qualified for hedge accounting, the differences between the changes in the estimated fair value of the hedged items and the changes in the estimated fair value of the associated interest rate swaps, i.e., hedge ineffectiveness, resulted in a net loss of $4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, compared to a net loss of $443 thousand for the same period in 2016.

For derivatives not qualifying for hedge accounting (economic hedges), the net interest settlements and the changes in the estimated fair value of the derivatives are recorded in net gains (losses) on derivatives and hedging activities. For economic hedges, the Bank recorded a net loss of $351 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2017, compared to a net loss of $2 million for the same period in 2016.





The tables below present the net effect of derivatives on net interest income and other income (loss), within the net gains (losses) on derivatives and hedging activities, by type of hedge and hedged item ($ amounts in millions).

The increase in compensation and benefits for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 was primarily due to a limited medical insurance premium reprieve during the first quarter of 2016. The increase in other operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 was primarily due to higher software maintenance and professional fees.
 
 
 
 
 
Total Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). Total other comprehensive income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2017 consisted primarily of unrealized gains on non-OTTI AFS securities. Total other comprehensive loss for the three months ended March 31, 2016 consisted primarily of unrealized losses on OTTI AFS securities.
 
 
 
 
 
Operating Segments
 
Our products and services are grouped within two operating segments: traditional and mortgage loans.
 
Traditional. The Traditional segment consists of (i) credit products (including advances, letters of credit, and lines of credit), (ii) investments (including federal funds sold, securities purchased under agreements to resell, AFS securities and HTM securities), and (iii) correspondent services and deposits.

The increase in net income for the Traditional segment for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 was due to higher net interest income primarily as a result of a higher average balance of, and higher spreads on, both advances and investments outstanding. This increase was partially offset by net losses on derivatives and hedging activities and higher expenses.





Mortgage Loans. The Mortgage Loans segment includes (i) mortgage loans purchased from our members through our MPP and (ii) participating interests purchased in 2012 - 2014 from the FHLBank of Topeka in mortgage loans originated by certain of its PFIs under the MPF Program.

Total assets were $56.7 billion as of March 31, 2017, a net increase of $2.8 billion or 5% compared to December 31, 2016, driven primarily by an increase in both advances and investment securities.
 
Advances. In general, advances fluctuate in accordance with our members' funding needs, primarily determined by their deposit levels, mortgage pipelines, investment opportunities, available collateral, other balance sheet strategies, and the cost of alternative funding options. Advances at carrying value totaled $29.7 billion at March 31, 2017, a net increase of $1.6 billion or 6% compared to December 31, 2016. This increase was primarily due to increased advances to depository institution members.

In accordance with the Final Membership Rule, by February 19, 2017, the memberships of the eight captive insurers that were admitted as members on or after September 12, 2014 were terminated and all of their outstanding advances were fully repaid.

When a borrower prepays an advance, the Bank's future income will be lower if the principal portion of the prepaid advance is reinvested in lower-yielding assets that continue to be funded by higher-cost debt. At March 31, 2017, we had $7.8 billion, or 26%, of advances outstanding, at par, that may be prepaid without prepayment or termination fees. All other advances may only be prepaid by the borrower paying a fee that is sufficient to make us financially indifferent to the prepayment.

Mortgage Loans Held for Portfolio. In general, our volume of mortgage loan purchases is affected by several factors, including interest rates, competition, the general level of housing and refinancing activity in the United States, consumer product preferences and regulatory considerations.

To continue to meet the needs of our members and maintain an appropriate level of mortgage loans held for portfolio on our statement of condition, in December 2016, we agreed to sell a 90% participating interest in a $100 million MCC of certain newly acquired MPP loans to the FHLBank of Atlanta. Principal amounts settled in December 2016 totaled $72 million, and the remaining $18 million settled in January 2017.

A breakdown of mortgage loans held for portfolio by primary product type is presented below ($ amounts in millions).

The increase in the UPB of mortgage loans held for portfolio was due to purchases under MPP Advantage exceeding repayments of outstanding MPP and MPF Program loans. Over time, the outstanding balance of mortgage loans purchased under our original MPP and the MPF Program will continue to decrease.





We have established and maintain an allowance for loan losses based on our best estimate of probable losses over the loss emergence period. Our estimate of MPP losses remaining after borrower's equity, but before credit enhancements, was $8 million at March 31, 2017 and $9 million at December 31, 2016. After consideration of the portion recoverable under the associated credit enhancements, the resulting allowance for MPP loan losses was less than $1 million at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016. See Notes to Financial Statements - Note 8 - Allowance for Credit Losses for more information.

Cash and Short-Term Investments. Cash and short-term investments totaled $4.4 billion at March 31, 2017, an increase of 7% compared to December 31, 2016. Cash and short-term investments as a percent of total assets were 8% at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

The total outstanding balance and composition of our short-term investment portfolio is influenced by our liquidity needs, member advance activity, market conditions and the availability of short-term investments at attractive interest rates, relative to our cost of funds.

Investment Securities. AFS securities totaled $6.9 billion at March 31, 2017, a net increase of 14% compared to $6.1 billion at December 31, 2016. The increase resulted from purchases of GSE debentures and GSE MBS, partially offset by maturities of GSE debentures and principal paydowns of private-label RMBS. Net unrealized gains on AFS securities at March 31, 2017 were $90 million, an increase of $23 million compared to December 31, 2016, primarily due to increased volume and changes in interest rates, credit spreads and volatility. The percentage of non-MBS AFS securities due in one year or less decreased to 15% at March 31, 2017 from 21% at December 31, 2016, and the percentage due after one year through five years increased to 44% at March 31, 2017 from 39% at December 31, 2016. The percentage due after 5 years through 10 years increased to 38% at March 31, 2017 from 37% at December 31, 2016. The changes were due primarily to purchases of longer-term securities during 2017. See Notes to Financial Statements - Note 3 - Available-for-Sale Securities for more information.

HTM securities totaled $5.7 billion at March 31, 2017, a net decrease of 2% compared to $5.8 billion at December 31, 2016, primarily due to principal paydowns. At March 31, 2017, the estimated fair value of our HTM securities in an unrealized loss position totaled $3.0 billion, a decrease of 12% from $3.4 billion at December 31, 2016, primarily due to changes in interest rates, credit spreads and volatility. The unrealized losses decreased from $23 million at December 31, 2016 to $21 million at March 31, 2017. See Notes to Financial Statements - Note 4 - Held-to-Maturity Securities for more information.

There was no meaningful change in the mix of fixed- and variable-rate securities at March 31, 2017 compared to December 31, 2016.

Total Liabilities. Total liabilities were $54.1 billion at March 31, 2017, a net increase of 5% compared to December 31, 2016. This increase was due to an increase in consolidated obligations to fund our asset growth.

Deposits (Liabilities). Total deposits were $525 million at March 31, 2017, an increase of 0.3% compared to December 31, 2016. These deposits represent a relatively small portion of our funding. The balances of these accounts can fluctuate from period to period and vary depending upon such factors as the attractiveness of our deposit pricing relative to the rates available on alternative money market instruments, members' preferences with respect to the maturity of their investments, and members' liquidity.

Consolidated Obligations. The overall balance of our consolidated obligations fluctuates in relation to our total assets and the availability of alternative sources of funds. The composition of our consolidated obligations can fluctuate significantly based on comparative changes in their cost levels, supply and demand conditions, demand for advances, and our overall balance sheet management strategy. Discount notes are issued to provide short-term funds, while CO bonds are generally issued to provide a longer-term mix of funding.

We maintain a liquidity and funding balance between our financial assets and financial liabilities. Additionally, the FHLBanks work collectively to manage FHLB System-wide liquidity and funding and jointly monitor System-wide refinancing risk. In managing and monitoring the amounts of assets that require refunding, the FHLBanks may consider contractual maturities of the financial assets, as well as certain assumptions regarding expected cash flows (i.e., estimated prepayments and scheduled amortizations). See Notes to Financial Statements - Note 3 - Available-for-Sale Securities, Note 4 - Held-to-Maturity Securities, Note 6 - Advances, and Note 10 - Consolidated Obligations for more detailed information regarding contractual maturities of certain of our financial assets and liabilities.

Derivatives. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we had derivative assets, net of collateral held or posted, including accrued interest, with estimated fair values of $137 million and $135 million, respectively, and derivative liabilities, net of collateral held or posted, including accrued interest, with estimated fair values of $5 million and $25 million, respectively. Increases and decreases in the fair value of derivatives are primarily caused by changes in the derivatives' respective underlying interest-rate indices.

The volume of derivative hedges is often expressed in terms of notional amounts, which is the amount upon which interest payments are calculated. The following table presents the notional amounts by type of hedged item, whether or not it is in a qualifying hedge relationship ($ amounts in millions).

Total Capital. Total capital at March 31, 2017 was $2.5 billion, a net increase of $101 million or 4% compared to December 31, 2016. This increase is due to members' purchases of additional capital stock, OCI and the growth of retained earnings.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Liquidity. Our primary sources of liquidity are holdings of cash and short-term investments and the issuance of consolidated obligations. Our cash and short-term investments portfolio totaled $4.4 billion at March 31, 2017. During the first three months of 2017, we maintained sufficient access to funding; our net proceeds from the issuance of consolidated obligations totaled $56.1 billion.

We have not identified any trends, demands, commitments, events or uncertainties that are likely to materially increase or decrease our liquidity.

Our remaining captive insurance company members that do not meet the new definition of "insurance company" or fall within another category of institution that is eligible for FHLBank membership shall have their memberships terminated no later than February 19, 2021. Upon termination, all of their outstanding Class B capital stock shall be repurchased, or redeemed after a five-year redemption period.

Excess Stock. Excess stock is capital stock that is not required as a condition of membership or to support outstanding obligations of members or former members to us. In general, the level of excess stock fluctuates with our members' level of advances. The following table presents the composition of our excess stock ($ amounts in millions).

Finance Agency rules limit the ability of an FHLBank to issue excess stock under certain circumstances, including when its total excess stock exceeds 1% of total assets or if the issuance of excess stock would cause total excess stock to exceed 1% of total assets. Our excess stock totaled $246 million at March 31, 2017, which was 0.4% of our total assets. Therefore, we are currently permitted to issue new excess stock to members and distribute stock dividends, should we choose to do so.

Capital Distributions. On April 27, 2017, our board of directors declared a cash dividend of 4.25% (annualized) on our Class B-1 capital stock and 3.40% (annualized) on our Class B-2 capital stock.





Adequacy of Capital. We must maintain sufficient permanent capital to meet the combined credit risk, market risk and operations risk components of the Finance Agency's risk-based capital requirement. As presented in the following table, we were in compliance with the requirement at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 ($ amounts in millions).

The increase in the total risk-based capital requirement was primarily caused by an increase in both the credit risk and market risk components. The increase in credit risk was mainly the result of the net increase in our outstanding balance of GSE debentures while the increase in market risk was due to changes in portfolio composition and market environment, including interest rates, spreads and volatility. The operations risk capital component is calculated as 30% of the credit and market risk capital components.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

At March 31, 2017, $2 million of principal previously paid in full by our MPP servicers remains subject to potential claims by those servicers for any losses resulting from past or future liquidations of the underlying properties. An estimate of the losses is included in the MPP allowance for loan losses. See Notes to Financial Statements - Note 8 - Allowance for Credit Losses for more information.

See Notes to Financial Statements - Note 16 - Commitments and Contingencies for information on additional commitments and contingencies.
 
 
 
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
 
We determined that four of our accounting policies are critical because they require management to make particularly difficult, subjective, and/or complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain and because of the likelihood that materially different amounts could be reported under different conditions or using different assumptions. These accounting policies relate to:

Derivatives and hedging activities (see Notes to Financial Statements - Note 9 - Derivatives and Hedging Activities for more detail);
Fair value estimates (see Notes to Financial Statements - Note 15 - Estimated Fair Values for more detail);
Provision for credit losses (see Notes to Financial Statements - Note 8 - Allowance for Credit Losses for more detail); and
OTTI (see Notes to Financial Statements - Note 5 - Other-Than-Temporary Impairment for more detail).

A full discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates is included in Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates in our 2016 Form 10-K. See below for additional information regarding certain of these policies.





Provision for Credit Losses.

Mortgage Loans Acquired under the MPP. Our allowance for loan losses incorporates our analysis of delinquent conventional MPP loans, using the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral, further reduced by estimated liquidation costs.

We also performed our loan loss analysis at December 31, 2016 considering an adverse scenario whereby we used a haircut on our underlying collateral values of 20% for delinquent conventional loans, including individually evaluated loans. We consider such a haircut to represent the most distressed scenario that is reasonably possible to occur over the loss emergence period of 24 months. In this distressed scenario, while holding all other assumptions constant, our estimated incurred losses remaining after borrowers' equity, but before credit enhancements, would increase by approximately $4.7 million. However, such increase would be substantially offset by credit enhancements. After evaluating this adverse scenario, we determined that the likelihood of incurring losses resulting from this scenario during the next 24 months was not probable. Therefore, the allowance for loan losses is based upon our best estimate of the probable losses over the loss emergence period that would not be recovered from the credit enhancements.
Other-Than-Temporary Impairment. The following table presents the significant modeling assumptions used to determine whether a security was OTTI during the three months ended March 31, 2017, as well as the related current credit enhancement as of March 31, 2017 ($ amounts in millions).

Insured by monoline bond insurers.

In addition to evaluating our private-label RMBS under a best estimate scenario, we perform a cash flow analysis for each of these securities under a more stressful housing price scenario. This more stressful scenario is primarily based on a short-term housing price forecast that is 5% lower than the best estimate scenario, followed by a recovery path with annual rates of housing price growth that are 33% lower than the best estimate.

The actual OTTI-related credit losses recognized in earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2017 totaled $82 thousand. Under the more stressful scenario, the estimated OTTI-related credit losses for the same period totaled $100 thousand.

Additional information regarding OTTI of our private-label RMBS and ABS is provided in Notes to Financial Statements - Note 5 - Other-Than-Temporary Impairment.





Recent Accounting and Regulatory Developments
 
Accounting Developments. See Notes to Financial Statements - Note 2 - Recently Adopted and Issued Accounting Guidance for a description of how recent accounting developments may impact our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Legislative and Regulatory Developments.
Finance Agency Final Rule on AMA. On December 19, 2016, the Finance Agency published the final AMA rule, which governs an FHLBank's authority to purchase and hold certain types of mortgage loans acquired from its PFIs. The final rule, which became effective January 18, 2017:

expands the types of assets that qualify as AMA to include mortgage loans insured or guaranteed by a department or agency of the U.S. government that exceed the conforming loan limits, as well as certificates representing interests in whole loans, under certain conditions;
enhances the credit risk sharing requirement by allowing an FHLBank to utilize its own model to determine the credit enhancement for AMA loan assets and pool loans in lieu of an NRSRO ratings model. The assets delivered must now be credit enhanced by the PFI up to the "AMA investment grade" level determined by the FHLBank, instead of a specific NRSRO rating; and
retains the option of allowing a PFI to meet its credit enhancement obligation by purchasing loan-level SMI or pool- level insurance once an FHLBank has established standards for qualified insurers.

The final AMA rule has not materially impacted our MPP volume or operating costs, and we do not anticipate that it will do so.

Finance Agency Final Rule on New Business Activities. On December 19, 2016, the Finance Agency issued a final rule,
effective January 18, 2017, that reduces the scope of new business activities ("NBA") for which an FHLBank must seek the
Finance Agency's prior approval. In addition, the final rule establishes certain timelines and clarifies the protocol for Finance
Agency review and approval of NBA notices. Further, under the final rule, an FHLBank's acceptance of new types of legally
permissible collateral does not constitute an NBA or require the Finance Agency's prior approval. Instead, the Finance Agency
will review an FHLBank's new collateral types as part of the annual examination process.

The final rule on NBAs has not materially impacted us, and we do not anticipate that it will do so.

Risk Management

We have exposure to a number of risks in pursuing our business objectives. These risks may be broadly classified as market, credit, liquidity, operational, and business. Market risk is discussed in Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk. See Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Risk Management in our 2016 Form 10-K for more information.

Credit Risk Management. We face credit risk on advances and other credit products, investments, mortgage loans, derivative financial instruments, and AHP grants.

Advances and Other Credit Products. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, advances to our insurance company members represented 51% and 53%, respectively, of our total advances, at par. In 2016, the board of directors modified the initial borrowing limit for insurance company members (excluding captive insurance companies) to 25% of their total general account assets less money borrowed. Credit extensions to insurance company members whose total credit products exceed this threshold require additional management approval as provided in our credit policy. Approval is based upon a number of factors that may include the member's financial condition, collateral quality, business plan and earnings stability. We also monitor these members more closely on an ongoing basis. As of March 31, 2017, no insurance company member (excluding captive insurers) had total credit products outstanding in excess of this threshold.





The Final Membership Rule did not require us to terminate any credit extensions that were outstanding on the effective date. However, new or renewed credit extensions to captive insurance companies that became members prior to September 12, 2014 cannot, under the Final Membership Rule, exceed 40% of the member's total assets. As of March 31, 2017, we had advances outstanding, at par, of $1.7 billion to one captive insurance company member whose total credit products exceeded the percentage limit and therefore is not eligible for additional credit products until its outstanding borrowings fall below 40%.

Concentration. Our credit risk is magnified due to the concentration of advances in a few borrowers. As of March 31, 2017, our top borrower held 15% of total advances outstanding, at par, and our top five borrowers held 45% of total advances outstanding, at par. As a result of this concentration, we perform frequent credit and collateral reviews on our largest borrowers. In addition, we analyze the implications to our financial management and profitability if we were to lose the business of one or more of these borrowers.

Investments. We are also exposed to credit risk through our investment portfolios. Our policies restrict the acquisition of investments to high-quality, short-term money market instruments and high-quality long-term securities.

Short-Term Investments. Our short-term investment portfolio typically includes federal funds sold, which can be overnight or term placements of our funds. We place these funds with large, high-quality financial institutions with investment-grade long-term credit ratings on an unsecured basis for terms of up to 275 days. Our short-term investment portfolio also typically includes securities purchased under agreements to resell which are secured by United States Treasuries or Agency MBS passthroughs. Although we are permitted to purchase these securities for terms of up to 275 days, most mature overnight.

The following table presents the unsecured investment credit exposures to private counterparties, categorized by the domicile of the counterparty's parent, based on the lowest of the counterparty's NRSRO long-term credit ratings, stated in terms of the S&P equivalent. The table does not reflect the foreign sovereign government's credit rating ($ amounts in millions).

Long-Term Investments. A Finance Agency regulation provides that the total value of our investments in MBS and ABS, calculated using amortized historical cost, must not exceed 300% of our total regulatory capital, as of the day we purchase the securities, based on the capital amount most recently reported to the Finance Agency. Total regulatory capital consists of retained earnings, Class B capital stock and MRCS. These investments totaled 290% of total regulatory capital at March 31, 2017. Generally, our goal is to maintain these investments near the 300% limit in order to enhance earnings and capital for our members and diversify our revenue stream.







The following table presents the carrying values of our investments, excluding accrued interest, grouped by credit rating and investment category. Applicable rating levels are determined using the lowest relevant long-term rating from S&P, Moody's and Fitch, each stated in terms of the S&P equivalent. Rating modifiers are ignored when determining the applicable rating level for a given counterparty or investment. Amounts reported do not reflect any subsequent changes in ratings, outlook, or watch status ($ amounts in millions).

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
 
As used in this Item, unless the context otherwise requires, the terms "Bank," "we," "us," and "our" refer to the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis or its management. We use certain acronyms and terms throughout this Item which are defined in the Glossary of Terms.

Measuring Market Risks
 
To evaluate market risk, we utilize multiple risk measurements, including duration of equity, duration gap, convexity, VaR, earnings at risk, and changes in MVE. Periodically, we conduct stress tests to measure and analyze the effects that extreme movements in the level of interest rates and the shape of the yield curve would have on our risk position.
 
Market Risk-Based Capital Requirement. When calculating the risk-based capital requirement, the VaR comprising the first factor of the market risk component is defined as the potential dollar loss from adverse market movements, for a holding period of 120 business days, with a 99% confidence interval, based on those historical prices and market rates. The table below presents the VaR ($ amounts in millions).

Certain Market and Interest-Rate Risk Metrics under Potential Interest-Rate Scenarios. We also monitor the sensitivities of MVE and duration of equity to potential interest-rate scenarios. We measure potential changes in the market value to book value of equity based on the current month-end level of rates versus large parallel rate shifts. The following table presents certain market and interest-rate metrics under different interest-rate scenarios ($ amounts in millions).

(1) 
Given the current low interest rate environment, we adjusted the downward rate shocks to prevent the assumed interest rate from becoming negative.
(2) 
The change in the MVE/book value of equity from December 31, 2016 resulted primarily from the change in market value of the assets and liabilities in response to changes in the market environment and changes in portfolio composition.
(3) 
The changes in the duration of equity compared to December 31, 2016 were partly due to changes in the market rate environment and changes in portfolio composition. These changes mostly impacted the risk profiles in down interest rate shocks. We use interest rate shocks in 50 bp increments to determine duration of equity.

Duration Gap. The base case duration gap was 0.03% at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
We are responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act") is: (a) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms; and (b) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, and principal accounting officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. As of March 31, 2017, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (the principal executive officer), Chief Financial Officer (the principal financial officer), and Chief Accounting Officer (the principal accounting officer), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and Chief Accounting Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2017.
 
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in rules 13a-15(f) and 15(d)-15(f) of the Exchange Act, that occurred during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls. We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures and other internal controls will prevent all error and fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can only be reasonable assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Additionally, over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
