Commencement for the annual Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines Director Election is underway. Members in the states of Idaho, North Dakota and Wyoming will each elect one individual to fill the one member director seat in its respective state. Two independent director seats will be filled through a district wide election. One of the independent director seats to be filled holds the PID designation.

The nomination and election process for member and independent directors will be conducted electronically through Survey & Ballot Systems (SBS), an outside vendor experienced in administering online elections in a secure environment. On June 17, SBS emailed the Bank's official announcement of election to eligible voting members in all states. Members in the states of Idaho, North Dakota and Wyoming each received an online member director nomination certificate, and eligible voting members in all states in the Bank's district received information regarding the independent director application process and access to the independent director application form. Member director nomination certificates and independent director application forms must be received by the Bank by July 22, 2026.

Individuals interested in being considered for an independent director position must submit an Independent Director Application Form to the Bank. Completed application forms must be received by the Bank no later than the nomination deadline of July 22, 2026, at 5:00 PM Central Time.
