section 13(3)(C) of the Federal Reserve Act, the Board must provide the
Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs of the Senate and the
Committee on Financial Services of the House of Representatives an initial report

On April 8, 2020, the Board authorized each of the 12 Federal Reserve
Banks to establish and operate the PPPLF. The PPPLF offered a source of
liquidity to financial institution lenders that lend to small businesses through the
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

• The total value of the collateral pledged to secure outstanding
advances was $29,967,694.

received under the facility, reported on an accrual basis, was

• 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

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. The
FRBB’s advance to the SPV was repaid in full in January 2026.

This periodic update provides aggregate information about the MSLP.
Additional information about the MSLP can be found on the Board’s public
website at https://www.federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy/mainstreetlending.htm.

Update. As of April 30, 2026:
• The total outstanding amount of the FRBB’s loans to the SPV under
the MSLP was $0.1
• The total value of eligible collateral held by the SPV was
$1,402,879,258.2
• The total amount of interest, fees, and other revenue received by the
SPV with respect to the MSLP, reported on an accrual basis, was

The evaluation of loan participations purchased by the MSLP resulted in the SPV updating the
credit loss allowance to an amount of $667 million as of March 31, 2026; the adjustment was
recorded in April 2026. The allowance for credit losses is estimated based upon the MSLP’s
holdings as of March 31, 2026, 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 April 30, 2026, the SPV has recognized approximately $2.08 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.
