RESTRICTED CASH RESTRICTED CASH
OFG has a contract with FNMA which requires collateral to guarantee the repurchase, if necessary, of loans sold with recourse. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, OFG delivered as collateral cash amounting to approximately $164 thousand and $175 thousand, respectively.
The Bank is required by Puerto Rico law to maintain average weekly reserve balances to cover demand deposits. The amount of those minimum average reserve balances for the week that covered September 30, 2022 was $485.3 million (December 31, 2021 - $456.5 million). At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Bank complied with this requirement. Cash and due from bank, as well as other short-term highly liquid securities, are used to cover the required average reserve balances.
