TREE NEWS reports: The Federal Reserve’s overnight reverse repurchase agreement (RRP) facility saw $576 million in usage on Friday, September 25, across three counterparties, down from $630 million the previous trading day. The RRP facility is a key tool the Fed uses to absorb excess liquidity from money markets.
Fed Overnight Reverse Repo Usage Falls to $576M
RRP usage this low signals that the Fed's balance-sheet runoff has drained most of the excess liquidity that once parked at the facility, leaving money-market rates more sensitive to shifts in Treasury supply and quarter-end dynamics. The counterparty count, not just the dollar total, is the tell: a facility this sparsely used is no longer an effective buffer, which matters for anyone tracking repo funding conditions. Whether usage rebounds around quarter-end dates, or stays near zero, is the open question.
