FHLBank San Francisco’s Jennifer Schachterle to Discuss Letters of Credit at 2025 California Municipal Treasurers Association Annual Conference

Letters of Credit can be an Effective Tool Available to Help Local Governments Safeguard Public Funds

/EIN News/ -- SAN FRANCISCO, April 21, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco (FHLBank San Francisco) announced Jennifer Schachterle, senior vice president of sales and business development, is scheduled to speak on a panel focused on letters of credit during the 2025 California Municipal Treasurers Association (CMTA) annual conference on April 24 in Monterey, California.

During the conference attended by local government officials with fiduciary responsibility for public funds, Schachterle will discuss how letters of credit can be a secure and efficient way for municipalities to make sure that deposits are covered over insured limits and serve as a favorable alternative to other forms of credit risk management.

“Municipal letters of credit issued by Federal Home Loan Banks to state and local governments can often be an effective tool to secure public fund deposits in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) and National Credit Union Insurance Fund limits,” said Schachterle. “I’m looking forward to connecting with attendees at the CMTA annual conference and joining my fellow panelists to share insights on this fast and efficient alternative form of collateral.”

On the panel, Schachterle will be joined by Denise de Bombelles, senior vice president, global investor relations with the Federal Home Loan Bank Office of Finance and Hubie White, CFA CTP, chief investment officer with the City and County of San Francisco, in a discussion for how municipal letters of credit can help safeguard public unit deposits.

The 2025 CMTA Annual Conference is taking place April 22-25, 2025, at the Hyatt Regency Monterey Hotel and Spa in Monterey, California.
