Overnight Reverse Repurchase Agreement Facility (ON RRP)

A Federal Reserve facility where eligible counterparties lend cash to the Fed overnight in exchange for Treasury securities, effectively setting a floor for short-term interest rates.

Example

Usage of the ON RRP facility surged to $2.3 trillion as money market funds parked excess cash with the Fed, preferring its guaranteed overnight rate over low-yielding alternatives.
