The Federal Reserve Bank of New York issued a comment entitled, "Statement to Revise Terms of Overnight Fixed-​Rate Reverse Repurchase Agreement Operational Exercise, which says, "As noted in the September 20, 2013, Statement Regarding Overnight Fixed-​Rate Reverse Repurchase Agreement Operational Exercise, the Open Market Trading Desk (​the Desk) at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York has been conducting daily, overnight fixed-​rate reverse repo operations as part of an operational readiness exercise. Beginning with the operation to be conducted on Tuesday, November 19, the Desk will increase the fixed rate offered in these operations from four basis points to five basis points. All other terms of the exercise will remain the same. As an operational readiness exercise, this work is a matter of prudent advance planning by the Federal Reserve. These operations do not represent a change in the stance of monetary policy, and no inference should be drawn about the timing of any change in the stance of monetary policy in the future."
