Fed IOER amendment aimed at ‘thwarting’ The Narrow Bank

The move came as the New York Fed was set to respond to a lawsuit by TNB. The legal action was originally launched as the Fed dragged its heels on granting TNB authorisation to open an interest-bearing reserves account with the central bank, known as a master account.
