What are the differences between the SOMA Securities Lending program and the TSLF?
The SOMA Securities Lending program offers specific Treasury securities held by SOMA for loan against Treasury GC on an overnight basis. Dealers bid competitively in a multiple-price auction held every day at noon. The TSLF will offer Treasury GC held by SOMA for a 28-day term. Dealers will bid competitively in single-price auctions held weekly and borrowers will pledge program-eligible collateral.
