Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis

What Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis does

Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis (FHLBank Indianapolis) is a regional wholesale cooperative bank chartered by Congress in 1932 as one of 11 independent banks in the Federal Home Loan Bank System. The bank provides reliable, low-cost liquidity to approximately 400 member financial institutions across Indiana and Michigan, including commercial banks, credit unions, community development financial institutions (CDFIs), and insurance companies. Core products include advances (long-term fixed-rate, adjustable-rate, callable, and putable), letters of credit, lines of credit, correspondent banking services, and the Advantage Mortgage Purchase Program (MPP), a secondary market channel launched in 2001 that has surpassed $50 billion in cumulative residential loan purchases. The bank also administers a broad suite of community investment programs, including the Affordable Housing Program (AHP), Homeownership Initiatives (Launch, Revive, HomeBoost), Elevate Small Business Grants, Tribal Nations Housing Development Assistance, and the newly introduced Housing Supply Rate Buydown Advance.

Revenue is generated primarily through net interest income from the spread between interest earned on advances, mortgage holdings, and investments versus the cost of funding liabilities. For full year 2025, net interest income reached $517 million, total assets stood at $86.3 billion, and net income was $324 million. Members access products through the Member Link Portal, the Loan Acquisition System (LAS) for mortgage deliveries, and the .GIVES system for community program applications. The eNotes collateral system, integrated with MERS eRegistry and US Bank's eVault, enables digital closings and electronic note handling for member institutions. As a government-sponsored enterprise, the bank is privately capitalized and cooperatively owned by its members, receives no Congressional appropriations, and is regulated by the Federal Housing Finance Agency.
