State Of New York Municipal Bond Bank Agency

	State Of New York Municipal Bond Bank Agency The State of New York Municipal Bond Bank Agency (MBBA) was a New York State public-benefit corporation founded in 1972 by the state legislature to offer municipalities increased access to the bond market by creating an alternate method by which they could sell their general obligation bonds. MBBA was authorized to issue up to $1 billion of its bonds and to use the proceeds to buy bonds issued by municipalities. Following its creation there was insufficient interest by municipalities to use MBBA's financial services. In 1991 the cities of Buffalo and Rochester entered into agreements with MBBA to sell their bonds to MBBA in order to refund excess property taxes paid by residents of those cities. In 2017, it had operating expenses of $640,000, an outstanding debt of $402 million, and a staffing level of 269 people It has been absorbed by New York State Homes and Community Renewal.

	New York State Public-benefit Corporations New York state public-benefit corporations and authorities operate like quasi-private corporations, with boards of directors appointed by elected officials, overseeing both publicly operated and privately operated systems. Public-benefit nonprofit corporations share characteristics with government agencies, but they are exempt from many state and local regulations. Of particular importance, they can issue their own debt, allowing them to bypass limits on state debt contained in the New York State Constitution. This allows public authorities to make potentially risky capital and infrastructure investments without directly putting the credit of New York State or its municipalities on the line. As a result, public authorities have become widely used for financing public works, and they are now responsible for more than 90% of the state's debt. The growing influence of public authorities over state and local financing, coupled with their ability to avoid regulations applicable to gover ...

This is usually in the form of bonds, but it may include notes, bills, and so on for public and private expenditures.
