To bolster the effectiveness of the Small Business Administration's Paycheck Protection Program (PPP), the Federal Reserve is supplying liquidity to participating financial institutions through term financing backed by PPP loans to small businesses. The PPP provides loans to small businesses so that they can keep their workers on the payroll. The Paycheck Protection Program Liquidity Facility (PPPLF), managed by the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis on behalf of the Federal Reserve System, will extend credit to eligible financial institutions that originate PPP loans, taking the loans as collateral at face value.
This program is for financial institutions who have made PPP loans. Questions regarding the PPPLF should be directed to the institution’s local Reserve Bank or to PPPLF@chi.frb.org.
