The Federal Reserve of New York has announced that its Open Market Trading Desk will conduct its securities lending operations using the new FedTrade Plus auction platform.

The system transition — which begins on 22 April — follows extensive testing by the Desk and with counterparties, including small value exercises conducted earlier in April 2026.

According to the Fed, this announcement does not affect any operational parameters for securities lending operations. It also does not affect any other open market operations.
