Small Business Administration’s Paycheck Protection Program.  The PPPLF 
ceased extending credit on July 30, 2021.  Additional information about the 
PPPLF can be found on the Board’s public website at

• As described in the Board’s initial report to Congress regarding the 
PPPLF, the PPPLF includes features that are intended to mitigate 
risk to the Federal Reserve.  The Board continues to expect that the 
PPPLF will not result in losses to the Federal Reserve.  
  
Additional transaction-specific disclosures regarding the PPPLF may be 
found in the attached spreadsheet (Spreadsheet A). 
 
B. Main Street Lending Program  
 
The Board authorized a Main Street Lending Program (MSLP) to support 
lending to small and medium-sized businesses and nonprofit organizations that 
were in sound financial condition before the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.  
The MSLP includes five facilities:  the MSNLF, MSELF, MSPLF, NONLF, and 
NOELF.  The Federal Reserve Bank of Boston (FRBB) established one special 
purpose vehicle (SPV) to manage and operate all five facilities.  The MSLP 
ceased purchasing participations in eligible loans on January 8, 2021. 
 
This periodic update provides aggregate information about the MSLP.  
Additional information about the MSLP can be found on the Board’s public

3  The evaluation of loan participations purchased by the MSLP resulted in the SPV updating the 
credit loss allowance to an amount of $637 million as of June 30, 2025; the adjustment was 
recorded in July 2025.  The allowance for credit losses is estimated based upon the MSLP’s 
holdings as of June 30, 2025, and does not indicate actual losses experienced by the program.  
The estimated allowance for credit losses for the MSLP will be updated on a quarterly basis.  As 
of September 30, 2025, the SPV has recognized approximately $1.85 billion in actual credit 
losses, net of subsequent recoveries.  The amount of actual losses for the MSLP will be updated 
in future periodic reports for any losses recognized in the respective report period.
