Except as provided in subsection (b), the Bank shall conduct loan activities in partnership with local financial institutions and shall not compete with local financial institutions. Partnership may include local banks’ participation in loan requests, loan monitoring, or blended financing of project loans. The Bank may engage in loan activities without partnering with a local financial institution, if those loan activities are not offered or provided by local financial institutions in the jurisdiction where the loan is being provided.
For local financial institutions that make the Bank a reserve depositary, the Bank may perform the functions and render the services of a clearinghouse, including all facilities for providing domestic and foreign exchange, or rediscounting paper on such terms as the Board shall provide.
