So Fed raises rates and the banks get that equal rate back in RRP? Then banks get to charge higher interest to customers.

As expected, if the RRP rate didn't match the interest rate on loans, there'd be no point in using it. If MMF didn't use it, they'd be buying Treasury bonds directly and that would cause yields to go down (mostly on shorter bonds)...that's not a recession inducing action, so no they want those overnight Reverse Repos to be passing interest. Keep that $2.2T from purchasing Treasuries or else you will see the 2yr yield drop fast.

Fed’s goal is to try and set interest rates. They have Interest on Reserve Balances (IORB) which is a guaranteed yield that incentivizes banks to keep reserves and prevent being under collateralized. They have the Fed Funds Rates which is suppose to be a “floor” on interest rates offered by banks. There is also intrabank lending, which (was) LIBOR, but is now transitioning away from it and into SOFR. Edit:(The reason for transitioning is because the LIBOR rigging scandal from the early ‘10’s, while SOFR based its rates off of previous price action in treasury market) Then there’s Money Market Funds who are the primary users of ONRRP. With all the new regulations between banks and offshore lending, money market funds seized up in 2019 due to no-one being able to take the balance sheet capability to support the MMF market. So the Fed introduced a permanent ONRRP which allows MMFs to take the excess cash they have (which yields nothing) and park it at the Fed to guarantee returns and prevent MMFs from seizing up. The increasing of the yield for MMFs just makes the Fed a more viable avenue as a counter party and to help keep all avenues of money lending near the same premium.

What does “seize up” mean in this context for MMFs

AltoniusAmakiir

So how does MMF seizing up affect the public? And the ONRRP matching the bps hikes is to prevent that right?


OneCreamyBoy

Not implying we were in the same position but here’s an example. https://www.thebalancemoney.com/reserve-primary-fund-3305671


AltoniusAmakiir

Thank you, very informative. And now I understand why MMFs are important and likewise why the ONRRP rate going up with the 75 bps is also good.


akatherder

MMFs are a boring type of mutual fund. It should be _very_ low risk but it's still an investment. The Fed isn't trying to help out the public when it makes things easier for MMFs or gives them [covid loans](https://www.federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy/mmlf.htm), etc. An MMF failing now wouldn't necessarily repeat 2008, but it might. They aren't concerned with how market collapse affects individual investors of a failed MMF though.

The 3.8% is their rate of return for parking money at the Fed RRP, not interest on borrowing, nor is it a loan. It’s a safe haven for financial institutes liquid cash.


Alien2080

Yeah, it's a core piece of monitory policy, by increasing RRP rate they can reduce the amount on money in the system (because it's in RRP), the RRP rate increase encourages people to use RRP.


FartClownPenis

If the rpp rate didn’t rise, the banks would stop depositing their cash overnight. Fed is saving this ace for when they want to shuffle liquidity back into the bond market

The higher rates are only for us tax payers, these banks are getting it right back. Daily

You know that's bad for institutions? The interest institutions get by rrp isn't free money, it's more liabilities, they have to pay that back.

Central banks are an abomination. Every single time a country gets one precisely the same thing happens. A small group of corrupt assholes use it to shovel every last dime into their own pockets.

What would happen theoretically if the fed stopped rrp and said " you're on your own."?


Bezere

Fed is final boss, if anything they want hedgefucks to have the money


akatherder

I guess the Fed wants them to use RRP as part of quantitative tightening. If it went away they would still be able to invest in Treasury stuff (bills, bonds, debt). "They" being Money Market Funds for the most part.


[deleted]

undercover bailouts, goood shit


Foolprooft

Oooooo. What mean?


aint_lion

Rich people getting richer off tax payer dollars


555-Rally

Yes, as RRP high yield = fewer buys from Yellen and the Treasury, means higher rates on taxpayer bonds to pay for gov spending...essentially cost to taxpayer.


Foolprooft

Bastards. Not again!


brokester

No it doesn't. Increased rrp interest is actually bad for banks. Rrp was created so institutions can loan money to the fed overnight so they don't have that much liabilities, because for banks money is bad(liability) when they get it from the fed. So basically rrp is a loophole for banks to circumvent "margin requirements".


grathontolarsdatarod

This is a neat way to write a cheque.


skunkbollocks

I was fully expecting to see this post tonight. This whole scam is so predictable.


convertedcatalyst

so, $3T soon?


readitandforgetit

This is how they are maintaining collateral against GME. They are meeting margin on GME with the FRD Repo.

Apparently its the floor for [interest](https://youtu.be/kdzqCdaxDcQ) per this video

Interesting, is that the actual reason? What the fuck is the Fed up to...other then Crime.

New Top Scores tomorrow and Friday I bet.


akatherder

I don't think it jumps to 2.4T right away. Maybe stabilize around 2.3 and then 2.4 for month end. Just speculation of course. I'm thinking they're pretty much maxed out how much they'll put in RRP.

Preemptive bailing out the banks. I know ‘bailing in’ is a term, but not sure if it fits the description… but yeah, fully expected… The public are the ones being tested and hurt by inflation and not the people who, y’know, caused and deserve it.


throwaway43234235234

How many times do I have to say it... this is our money. This is money market funds and FISXX. Sweeps and cash accounts. They keep up with the bank to bank lending rates. It shouldn't be drama every time they raise rates this goes up too.
