    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 11(e) of the Federal Home Loan Bank 
    Act (Bank Act) (12 U.S.C.1431(e)) authorizes the Banks (1) to accept 
    demand deposits from member institutions, (2) to be drawees of payment 
    instruments, (3) to engage in collection and settlement of payment 
    instruments drawn on or issued by members and other eligible 
    institutions, and (4) to engage in such incidental activities as are 
    necessary to the exercise of such authority. Section 11(e)(2)(B) of the 
    Bank Act (12 U.S.C. Sec. 1431(e)(2)(B)) requires the Banks to make 
    charges for services authorized in that section, which charges are to 
    be determined and regulated by the Board.
        Section 943.6(c) of the Board's regulations (12 CFR 943.6(c)) 
    provides for the annual publication in the Federal Register of all 
    prices for Bank services. The following fee schedules are for the three 
    Banks which offer item processing services to their members and other 
    qualified financial institutions. Most of the remaining Banks provide 
    other Correspondence Services which may include securities safekeeping, 
    disbursements, coin and currency, settlement, electronic funds 
    transfer, etc. However, these Banks do not provide services related to 
    processing of items drawn against or deposited into third party 
    accounts held by their members or other qualified financial 
    institutions.
