CFI Asset Cap Raised to $1.5B
As of January 1, 2025, the cap on average total assets that defines a community financial institution (CFI) is $1,500,000,000. Any FDIC-insured depository institution with average total assets below $1,500,000,000 meets the statutory CFI cap and therefore qualifies for the CFI advantages described in the Federal Home Loan Bank Act, including advantages in Bank membership, the purposes for which they may receive long-term advances, and the collateral they may pledge to secure advances.
