from NY Fed | News
As noted in the October 19, 2009, Statement Regarding Reverse Repurchase Agreements, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York has been working internally and with market participants on operational aspects of triparty reverse repurchase agreements to ensure that this tool will be ready to support any reserve draining operations that the Federal Open Market Committee might direct. Beginning Wednesday, February 29, the New York Fed intends to conduct another series of small-scale reverse repurchase (repo) transactions using all eligible collateral types. The first operations will be conducted with the newest expanded reverse repo counterparties-the 8 banks announced on December 1, 2011-as well as the two new primary dealers announced on October 4, 2011. Subsequent operations will be open to all eligible reverse repo counterparties.
