Congress created the Federal Financing Bank (FFB) in 1973 to
help meet the demand for funds through Federal and federally-assisted
borrowing programs, and to coordinate such borrowings with overall
Federal fiscal and debt management policies.
The mission of the FFB is to coordinate these programs with
the overall economic and fiscal policies of the Government, to reduce
the costs of Federal and federally-assisted borrowings from the public,
and to assure that such borrowings are financed in a manner least
disruptive of private financial markets and institutions.
