Fact Sheet

Overview
 
The Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco helps meet the borrowing needs of communities by providing wholesale credit products and services to member financial institutions. Eligible members include commercial banks, credit unions, savings institutions, thrift and loan companies, and insurance companies headquartered in Arizona, California, and Nevada.
 
We are part of a network of 12 regional Federal Home Loan Banks created by Congress in 1932. Each FHLBank is a separately chartered entity, with its own board of directors and management. The capital stock of each FHLBank is held by its members.
 
We make credit available so member financial institutions can make home mortgage, commercial real estate, small business, and other loans. We also support affordable housing and economic development through partnerships with local communities. As part of this effort, we contribute 10% of our income to the Affordable Housing Program, which provides grants to create affordable housing for lower-income households and individuals. Since the inception of the AHP, the Bank has awarded $473 million in AHP grants to create approximately 81,000 affordable homes in Arizona, California, Nevada, and other states served by our members.
