Seattle Bank Prepares to Launch New Website

August 5, 2010

Dear Seattle Bank Members,

On Friday, August 6, the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle (Seattle Bank) will officially launch its new website! Although there are many similarities between our new and current websites, our new site is designed to better facilitate your access to information about the Seattle Bank and our products and services, and to offer a more consistent and cohesive user experience.

Our new homepage offers direct access to rates, news, events, and special announcements. It also presents direct links to case studies showcasing the community investment work our members and their community partners are doing in each state in our district.

With broader adoption of online technology and our increasing reliance on the web for communications, we have also updated the technical aspects of our website, which streamlines our maintenance process and, in turn, helps to ensure that our content is consistent and up-to-date.

Those in your organization who have access to our secure online applications (Online Services and Community Investment Services) will be directly notified of this change. Although they should experience no change in their access to these applications, they will be presented with an updated login page and, in the case of Online Services, an updated user interface.

We encourage you to check our new website on Friday, August 6, and to let us know what you think of the change! Please send any comments you might have to website@fhlbsea.com. Should you experience any problems or difficulties with the new site, please contact our Member Services team (800.426.7538) to let them know.

We hope you will appreciate our new website and that it will help to meet your business needs.
