Fed Reverse Repo Usage Falls to $700M With 2 Counterparties

The Federal Reserve’s overnight reverse repurchase agreement (RRP) facility took in $700 million on Tuesday, September 15, from just two counterparties, down from $1.42 billion the previous trading day. The drop marks a continued decline in usage of the Fed’s overnight liquidity-draining tool.

The RRP facility has faded to a rounding error, and the counterparty count matters more than the dollar figure: with only two participants, the tool is no longer functioning as a broad liquidity-absorption mechanism. That leaves the Fed with a thinner buffer for draining excess cash, and pushes more of that cash toward Treasury bills and other front-end collateral. Whether usage stabilizes at these levels or grinds toward zero is the open question, since it shapes how much money-market pressure shows up elsewhere.
