Letters of Credit Resources


New Letters of Credit System Launches October 21

Starting Monday, October 21, you will see more online options for using Letters of Credit (LOCs) with FHLB Dallas. The new system provides online functionality to request direct, custodial and confirmation LOCs, including those with the evergreen, fluctuating balance or community investment options. The new functionality enables you to pledge under a custodial LOC, as well as modify and release pledges. Until now, many of these products could only be requested via fax or email. Additionally, you may now amend LOCs online, increasing the amount or term, as well as upload supporting documentation instead of emailing. You will also have access to expanded reporting options.

To Help in the Transition

FHLB Dallas has made available several training videos and user guides to assist members in using the new system.
