The FHLBNY is focused on remaining a reliable partner to our members under all conditions.  In this regard, the FHLBNY continues to monitor the evolving situation regarding the Novel Coronavirus ("COVID-19").  As part of our Business Continuity planning, the FHLBNY has a comprehensive pandemic plan in place and we believe that the FHLBNY is well-positioned to continue to meet member needs in the event of a potential prolonged disruption.  In order for the FHLBNY to assist our members, we ask each member to review their essential staff's entitlements during its institution's Business Continuity planning for a potential prolonged disruption.  Please ensure that all essential staff designated to conduct business with the FHLBNY has the appropriate credentials available to them to transact telephonically, or via 1Link℠ / 1LinkSK℠, whether operating in the office, remotely or with limited staff, in particular for Wire Transfers, Advances, and Safekeeping.  In the event additional staff are required to transact with the FHLBNY, please notify your Relationship Managers at (212) 441-6700 or the Member Services Desk at (212) 441-6600 for assistance.
