Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On August 17, 2023, the Board of Directors (“Board”) of the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York (“FHLBNY”) approved the amended and restated bylaws of the FHLBNY (as amended and restated, the “Bylaws”). In sum, an amendment was made to Article IV, Section 1 of the Bylaws to provide that the Board may prospectively rescind or revise any prior action of the Executive Committee (as long as the rights of third parties are not affected); however, the Board may not retroactively adopt such recission or revision. Prior to the amendment, the Bylaws did allow for both the prospective and the retroactive recission or revision of Executive Committee actions by the Board (as long as the rights of third parties were not affected).
The description of the change to the Bylaws contained in this report is qualified in its entirety by reference to the amended and restated Bylaws, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.2 and is incorporated herein by reference.
