Maturing advances are replaced by drawing on available cash, making additional borrowings or through increased customer deposits. At December 31, 2024, the Company had total borrowing capacity of $7.94 billion under this line. FHLB advances of $3.20 billion were outstanding at December 31, 2024, with an interest rate of 4.38%.
