  Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
  (e) On March 26, 2007 the Board of Directors of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des  Moines ("Bank") approved the 2007 Annual Incentive Plan ("Plan").
  Objectives of the Plan
  The objectives of the Bank's 2007 Plan are to focus the efforts of all Bank employees on fulfilling the Bank's vision within the framework of its shared values, and to recognize Bank employees for their individual and team contributions to achievement of the Bank's strategic imperatives.
  The Plan seeks to accomplish these objectives by linking cash incentive award opportunities to Bank performance and individual performance. The Bank President and all regular full-time and part-time employees, except for employees in the internal audit department, are eligible to participate in the Plan.
  Measurements Used by the Plan
  The Plan incorporates two different sets of goals: (a) Bankwide financial and business maintenance/growth goals ("Bankwide Goals"), and (b) individual and/or team performance goals ("Individual Goals"). For 2007, the Bankwide Goals consist of three equally weighted goals measured, respectively, by the results achieved in attaining specified performance levels in three areas:  Borrowing activity for relatively active members, borrowing activity for relatively inactive members, and profitability measured by GAAP earnings.
  The Individual Goals under the Plan are established by department managers and set forth individual and/or team goals aimed at achieving the Bank's non-financial strategic business initiatives.
  Determining Incentive Compensation Award Opportunities
  Under the Plan, incentive award opportunities for Bankwide Goals and Individual Goals are based upon established 'threshold,' 'target,' and 'excess' award levels. Eligible employees are assigned an incentive compensation award opportunity which is expressed as a percentage of the employee's base salary for that Plan year. With respect to the Bank's President, the incentive compensation award opportunity for 2007 is as follows:
  25% of Base Salary (Threshold)
  37.5% of Base Salary (Target)
  50% of Base Salary (Excess)
  With respect to the Bank's other executive officers, the incentive award opportunity for 2007 is as follows:
  20% of Base Salary (Threshold)
  30% of Base Salary (Target)
  40% of Base Salary (Excess)
  Weighting of Bankwide Goals and Individual Goals
  The Bank believes that employees at higher ranks have a greater degree of impact on the achievement of Bankwide Goals than employees at lower ranks. Therefore, employees at higher ranks have a greater weighting placed on the Bankwide performance component of their incentive award opportunities as opposed to the individual performance component. For the Bank's President and the other executive officers, the overall incentive award opportunity is weighted 60% on Bankwide Goals and 40% on Individual Goals.
  The Bank's Board of Directors is responsible for the Plan.  The Board's Human Resources and Compensation Committee has the full power of the Board to construe, interpret and administer the Plan. Day-to-day administration of the Plan is delegated to those in the Bank responsible for the human resources function.
