FHLBI annually reinvests at least 10 percent of our net earnings into affordable housing in partnership with our members

Like every “dividend,” this contribution is predicated on earnings

FHLB’s Affordable Housing Program (AHP) constitutes the largest single source of private “capital” for affordable housing in the country

No other provider of liquidity pays this dividend
