COFI

December 2009

11th District Monthly Weighted Average Cost of Funds Index

 Index Month   Index Value   Date Announced 
December 2009 1.828 January 29, 2010

The COFI is computed from data reported by COFI Reporting Members of the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco. For December 2009, 24 eligible institutions reported COFI data.

Note: Effective November 1, 2009, Wachovia Mortgage, FSB, merged into Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., which is not eligible to be a COFI Reporting Member. As a result, Wachovia Mortgage was not included in the November 2009 Cost of Funds Index. The impact of removals of COFI Reporting Members on the COFI depends entirely on the amount of interest expense and total funds (deposit accounts, advances, and other borrowings) of the entity being removed. If an institution with a large amount of interest expense and total funds is removed from the COFI Reporting Members, the impact on the COFI may be significant.
