Abstract

This white paper proposes the creation of an Emergency Discounted Treasury Liquidity Facility (EDTLF), a Federal Reserve-administered program designed to provide emergency liquidity to property & casualty (P&C) insurers, health insurers, and reinsurers during systemic crises. By allowing insurers to temporarily sell U.S. Treasuries to the Federal Reserve under repurchase agreements, the facility would prevent fire sales, stabilize financial markets, and ensure the timely payment of claims in the wake of climate disasters, pandemics, or other extreme events (Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, 2025).
