The Federal Reserve Bank of New York has released the schedule for next month's Treasury market operations, with a notable aspect being its reduction of the Reserve Management Purchase (RMP) scale, which refers to Treasury bill purchases used to enhance money market liquidity.
Over the coming month, this scale will drop to $25 billion, whereas it had remained at $40 billion per month since the Fed began rebalancing its balance sheet four months ago. This move was widely anticipated—indeed, some had even expected a larger cut in RMP. It reflects that reserve levels have rebounded by approximately $200 billion since the policy was implemented.
