(1.) Unless otherwise noted, rates of change are calculated from
average amounts outstanding during preceding month or quarter.

(2.) Figures incorporate adjustments for discontinuities, or
"breaks," associated with regulatory changes in reserve requirements.
(See also table 1.20.)

(3.) The seasonally adjusted, break-adjusted monetary base consists of
(1) seasonally adjusted, break-adjusted total reserves (line 1), plus
(2) the seasonally adjusted currency component of the money stock,
plus (3) (for all quarterly reporters on the "Report of
Transaction Accounts, Other Deposits and Vault Cash" and for all
weekly reporters whose vault cash exceeds their required reserves) the
seasonally adjusted, break-adjusted difference between current vault
cash and the amount applied to satisfy current reserve requirements.

(4.) Composition of the money stock measures and debt is as follows,

M1: (1) currency outside the U.S. Treasury, Federal Reserve Banks,
and the vaults of depository institutions, (2) travelers checks of
nonbank issuers, (3) demand deposits at all commercial banks other
than those owed to depository institutions, the U.S. government, and
foreign banks and official institutions, less cash items in the
process of collection and Federal Reserve float, and (4) other
checkable deposits (OCDs), consisting of negotiable order of
withdrawal (NOW) and automatic transfer service (ATS) accounts at
depository institutions, credit union share draft accounts, and
demand deposits at thrift institutions. Seasonally adjusted M1
is computed by summing currency, travelers checks, demand deposits, and
OCDs, each seasonally adjusted separately.

M2:M1 plus (1) savings (including MMDAs), (2) small-denomination time
deposits (time deposits--including retail RPs--in amounts of less
than $100,000), and (3) balances in retail money market mutual funds.
Excludes individual retirement accounts (IRAs) and Keogh balances
at depository institutions and money market funds. Seasonally adjusted
M2 is calculated by summing savings deposits, small-denomination time
deposits, and retail money fund balances, each seasonally adjusted
separately, and adding this result to seasonally
adjusted M1.

M3:M2 plus (1) large-denomination time deposits (in amounts of
$100,000 or more), (2) balances in institutional money funds, (3) RP
liabilities (overnight and term) issued by all depository institutions,
and (4) Eurodollars (overnight and term) held by U.S. residents at
foreign branches of U.S. banks worldwide and at all banking offices in
the United Kingdom and Canada. Excludes amounts held by depository
institutions, the U.S. government, money market funds, and foreign
banks and official institutions. Seasonally adjusted M3 is calculated
by summing large time deposits, institutional money fund balances, RP
liabilities, and Eurodollars, each seasonally adjusted separately,
and adding this result to seasonally adjusted M2.

Debt: The debt aggregate is the outstanding credit market debt of
the domestic nonfinancial sectors--the federal sector (U.S.
government, not including government-sponsored enterprises or
federally related mortgage pools) and the nonfederal sectors (state
and local governments, households and nonprofit organizations,
nonfinancial corporate and nonfarm noncorporate businesses, and
farms). Nonfederal debt consists of mortgages, tax-exempt and
corporate bonds, consumer credit, bank loans, commercial paper, and
other loans. The data, which are derived from the Federal
Reserve Board's flow of funds accounts, are break-adjusted (that is,
discontinuities in the data have been smoothed into the series) and
month-averaged (that is, the data have been derived by averaging
adjacent month-end levels).

(5.) Sum of (1) savings deposits (including MMDAs), (2) small time
deposits, and (3) retail money fund balances, each seasonally adjusted
separately.

(6.) Sum of (1) large time deposits, (2) institutional
money fund balances, (3) RP liabilities (overnight and term) issued
by depository institutions, and (4) Eurodollars (overnight and
term) of U.S. addressees, each seasonally adjusted separately.

(7.) Small time deposits--including retail RPs--are those issued
in amounts of less than $100,000. All IRA and Keogh account
balances at commercial banks and thrift institutions
are subtracted from small time deposits.

(8.) Large time deposits are those issued in amounts of $100,000
or more, excluding those booked at international banking facilities.

(9.) Large time deposits at commercial banks less those held by
money market funds, depository institutions, the U.S. government,
and foreign banks and official institutions.

(10.) Includes both overnight and term.

(1.) Data in this table also appear in the Board's H.3 (502) weekly
statistical release. For ordering address, see inside front cover.
Data are not break-adjusted or seasonally adjusted.

(2.) Excludes required clearing balances and adjustments to
compensate for float and includes other off-balance-sheet
"as-of" adjustments.

(3.) Vault cash eligible to satisfy reserve requirements. It includes
only vault cash held by those banks and thrift institutions that
are not exempt from reserve requirements. Dates refer
to the maintenance periods in which the vault cash can be used to
satisfy reserve requirements.

(4.) All vault cash held during the lagged computation period by
"bound" institutions (that is, those whose required reserves exceed
their vault cash) plus the amount of vault cash
applied during the maintenance period by "nonbound" institutions
(that is, those whose vault cash exceeds their required reserves)
to satisfy current reserve requirements,

(5.) Total vault cash (line 2) less applied vault cash (line 3).

(6.) Reserve balances with Federal Reserve Banks (line 1) plus
applied vault cash (line 3).

(7.) Total reserves (line 5) less required reserves (line 6).

(8.) Borrowing at the discount window under the terms and
conditions established for the Century Date Change Special
Liquidity Facility in effect from October 1, 1999 through
April 7, 2000.

(9.) Consists of borrowing at the discount window under the
terms and conditions established for the extended credit program
to help depository institutions deal with sustained
liquidity pressures. Because there is not the same need to repay
such borrowing promptly as with traditional short-term adjustment
credit, the money market effect of extended credit is
similar to that of nonborrowed reserves.

(1.) Available on a short-term basis to help depository institutions
meet temporary needs for funds that cannot be met through reasonable
alternative sources. The highest rate established for loans to
depository institutions may be charged on adjustment credit loans of
unusual size that result from a major operating problem at the
borrower's facility.

(2.) Available to help relatively small depository institutions meet
regular seasonal needs for funds that arise from a clear pattern of
intrayearly movements in their deposits and loans and that cannot be
met through special industry lenders. The discount rate on seasonal
credit takes into account rates charged by market sources of funds
and ordinarily is reestablished on the first business day of each
two-week reserve maintenance period; however, it is never less than
the discount rate applicable to adjustment credit.

(3.) May be made available to depository institutions when similar
assistance is not reasonably available from other sources, including
special industry lenders. Such credit may be provided when
exceptional circumstances (including sustained deposit drains,
impaired access to money market funds, or sudden deterioration in
loan repayment performance) or practices involve only a particular
institution, or to meet the needs of institutions experiencing
difficulties adjusting to changing market conditions over a longer
period (particularly at times of deposit disintermediation). The
discount rate applicable to adjustment credit ordinarily is charged
on extended-credit loans outstanding less than thirty days; however,
at the discretion of the Federal Reserve Bank, this time period may
be shortened. Beyond this initial period, a flexible rate somewhat
above rates charged on market sources of funds is charged. The rate
ordinarily is reestablished on the first business day of each
two-week reserve maintenance period, but it is never less than the
discount rate applicable to adjustment credit plus 50 basis points.

(4.) Available in the period between October 1, 1999, and April 7,
2000, to help depository institutions in sound financial condition
meet unusual needs for funds in the period around the century date
change. The interest rate on loans from the special facility is the
Federal Open Market Committee's intended federal funds rate plus
150 basis points.

(5.) For earlier data, see the following publications of the Board of
Governors: Banking and Monetary Statistics, 1914-1941, and 1941-1970;
and the Annual Statistical Digest, 1970-1979.

In 1980 and 1981, the Federal Reserve applied a surcharge to
short-term adjustment-credit borrowings by institutions with deposits
of $500 million or more that had borrowed in successive weeks or in
more than four weeks in a calendar quarter. A 3 percent surcharge was
in effect from Mar. 17, 1980, through May 7, 1980. A surcharge of 2
percent was reimposed on Nov. 17, 1980; the surcharge was
subsequently raised to 3 percent on Dec. 5, 1980, and to 4 percent on
May 5, 1981. The surcharge was reduced to 3 percent effective Sept.
22, 1981, and to 2 percent effective Oct. 12, 1981. As of Oct. 1,
1981, the formula for applying the surcharge was changed from a
calendar quarter to a moving thirteen-week period. The surcharge was
eliminated on Nov. 17, 1981.

2 More than $44.3 million(4)              10               12/30/99

3 Nonpersonal time deposits(5)             0               12/27/90

4 Eurocurrency liabilities(6)              0               12/27/90

(1.) Required reserves must be held in the form of deposits with
Federal Reserve Banks or vault cash. Nonmember institutions may
maintain reserve balances with a Federal Reserve Bank indirectly, on
a pass-through basis, with certain approved institutions. For
previous reserve requirements, see earlier editions of the Annual
Report or the Federal Reserve Bulletin. Under the Monetary Control
Act of 1980, depository institutions include commercial banks,
savings banks, savings and loan associations, credit unions,
agencies and branches of foreign banks, and Edge Act corporations.

(2.) Transaction accounts include all deposits against which the
account holder is permitted to make withdrawals by negotiable or
transferable instruments, payment orders of withdrawal, or
telephone or preauthorized transfers for the purpose of making
payments to third persons or others. However, accounts subject to
the rules that permit no more than six preauthorized, automatic, or
other transfers per month (of which no more than three may be by
check, draft, debit card, or similar order payable directly to third
parties) are savings deposits, not transaction accounts.

(3.) The Monetary Control Act of 1980 requires that the amount of
transaction accounts against which the 3 percent reserve requirement
applies be modified annually by 80 percent of the percentage change
in transaction accounts held by all depository institutions,
determined as of June 30 of each year. Effective with the reserve
maintenance period beginning December 30, 1999, for depository
institutions that report weekly, and with the period beginning
January 20, 2000, for institutions that report quarterly, the amount
was decreased from $46.5 million to $44.3 million.

Under the Garn-St Germain Depository Institutions Act of 1982, the
Board adjusts the amount of reservable liabilities subject to a zero
percent reserve requirement each year for the succeeding calendar
year by 80 percent of the percentage increase in the total
reservable liabilities of all depository institutions, measured on
an annual basis as of June 30. No corresponding adjustment is made
in the event of a decrease. The exemption applies only to accounts
that would be subject to a 3 percent reserve requirement. Effective
with the reserve maintenance period beginning December 30, 1999, for
depository institutions that report weekly, and with the period
beginning January 20, 2000, for institutions that report quarterly,
the exemption was raised from $4.9 million to $5.0 million.

(4.) The reserve requirement was reduced from 12 percent to 10 percent
on Apr. 2, 1992, for institutions that report weekly, and on Apr.
16, 1992, for institutions that report quarterly.

(5.) For institutions that report weekly, the reserve requirement on
nonpersonal time deposits with an original maturity of less than 1
1/2 years was reduced from 3 percent to 1 1/2 percent for the
maintenance period that began Dec. 13, 1990, and to zero for the
maintenance period that began Dec. 27, 1990. For institutions that
report quarterly, the reserve requirement on nonpersonal time
deposits with an original maturity of less than 1 1/2 years was
reduced from 3 percent to zero on Jan. 17, 1991.

The reserve requirement on nonpersonal time deposits with an
original maturity of 1 1/2 years or more has been zero since Oct. 6,
1983.

(6.) The reserve requirement on Eurocurrency liabilities was reduced
from 3 percent to zero in the same manner and on the same dates as
the reserve requirement on nonpersonal time deposits with an
original maturity of less than 1 1/2 years (see note 5).

(1.) Latest monthly and biweekly figures are available from the Board's
H.3 (502) weekly statistical release. Historical data starting in
1959 and estimates of the effect on required reserves of changes in
reserve requirements are available from the Money and Reserves
Projections Section, Division of Monetary Affairs, Board of Governors
of the Federal Reserve System, Washington, DC 20551.

(2.) Figures reflect adjustments for discontinuities, or "breaks,"
associated with regulatory changes in reserve requirements. (See also
table 1.10.)

(3.) Seasonally adjusted, break-adjusted total reserves equal
seasonally adjusted, break-adjusted required reserves (line 4) plus
excess reserves (line 16).

(4.) Seasonally adjusted, break-adjusted nonborrowed reserves equal
seasonally adjusted, break-adjusted total reserves (line 1) less
total borrowings of depository institutions from the Federal Reserve
(line 17).

(5.) Extended credit consists of borrowing at the discount window under
the terms and conditions established for the extended credit program
to help depository institutions deal with sustained liquidity
pressures. Because there is not the same need to repay such borrowing
promptly as with traditional short-term adjustment credit, the money
market effect of extended credit is similar to that of nonborrowed
reserves.

(6.) The seasonally adjusted, break-adjusted monetary base consists of
(1) seasonally adjusted, break-adjusted total reserves (line 1), plus
(2) the seasonally adjusted currency component of the money stock,
plus (3) (for all quarterly reporters on the "Report of Transaction
Accounts, Other Deposits and Vault Cash" and for all those weekly
reporters whose vault cash exceeds their required reserves) the
seasonally adjusted, break-adjusted difference between current vault
cash and the amount applied to satisfy current reserve requirements.

(7.) Break-adjusted total reserves equal break-adjusted required
reserves (line 9) plus excess reserves (line 16).

(8.) To adjust required reserves for discontinuities that are due to
regulatory changes in reserve requirements, a multiplicative
procedure is used to estimate what required reserves would have been
in past periods had current reserve requirements been in effect.
Break-adjusted required reserves include required reserves against
transactions deposits and nonpersonal time and savings deposits
(but not reservable nondeposit liabilities).

(9.) The break-adjusted monetary base equals (1) break-adjusted total
reserves (line 6), plus (2) the (unadjusted) currency component of
the money stock, plus (3) (for all quarterly reporters on the "Report
of Transaction Accounts, Other Deposits and Vault Cash" and for all
those weekly reporters whose vault cash exceeds their required
reserves) the break-adjusted difference between current vault cash
and the amount applied to satisfy current reserve requirements.

(10.) Reflects actual reserve requirements, including those on
nondeposit liabilities, with no adjustments to eliminate the effects
of discontinuities associated with regulatory changes in reserve
requirements.

(11.) Reserve balances with Federal Reserve Banks plus vault cash used
to satisfy reserve requirements.

(12.) The monetary base, not break-adjusted and not seasonally
adjusted, consists of (1) total reserves (line 11), plus (2) required
clearing balances and adjustments to compensate for float at Federal
Reserve Banks, plus (3) the currency component of the money stock,
plus (4) (for all quarterly reporters on the "Report of Transaction
Accounts, Other Deposits and Vault Cash" and for all those weekly
reporters whose vault cash exceeds their required reserves) the
difference between current vault cash and the amount applied to
satisfy current reserve requirements. Since February 1984, currency
and vault cash figures have been measured over the computation
periods ending on Mondays.

(13.) Unadjusted total reserves (line 11) less unadjusted required
reserves (line 14).

NOTES TO TABLE 1.21

(1.) Latest monthly and weekly figures are available from the Board's
H.6 (508) weekly statistical release. Historical data starting in 1959
are available from the Money and Reserves Projections Section,
Division of Monetary Affairs, Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System, Washington, DC 20551.

(2.) Composition of the money stock measures and debt is as follows:

M1: (1) currency outside the U.S. Treasury, Federal Reserve Banks, and
the vaults of depository institutions, (2) travelers checks of
nonbank issuers, (3) demand deposits at all commercial banks other
than those owed to depository institutions, the U.S. government, and
foreign banks and official institutions, less cash items in the
process of collection and Federal Reserve float, and (4) other
checkable deposits (OCDs), consisting of negotiable order of
withdrawal (NOW) and automatic transfer service (ATS) accounts at
depository institutions, credit union share draft accounts, and
demand deposits at thrift institutions. Seasonally adjusted M1 is
computed by summing currency, travelers checks, demand deposits,
and OCDs, each seasonally adjusted separately.

M2: M1 plus (1) savings deposits (including MMDAs),
(2) small-denomination time deposits (time deposits--including
retail RPs--in amounts of less than $100,000), and (3) balances in
retail money market mutual funds. Excludes individual retirement
accounts (IRAs) and Keogh balances at depository institutions and
money market funds. Seasonally adjusted M2 is calculated by summing
savings deposits, small-denomination time deposits, and retail
money fund balances, each seasonally adjusted separately, and
adding this result to seasonally adjusted M1.

M3: M2 plus (1) large-denomination time deposits (in amounts of
$100,000 or more) issued by all depository institutions, (2) balances
in institutional money funds, (3) RP liabilities (overnight and
term) issued by all depository institutions, and (4) Eurodollars
(overnight and term) held by U.S. residents at foreign branches of
U.S. banks worldwide and at all banking offices in the United
Kingdom and Canada. Excludes amounts held by depository institutions,
the U.S. government, money market funds, and foreign banks and
official institutions. Seasonally adjusted M3 is calculated by
summing large time deposits, institutional money fund balances, RP
liabilities, and Eurodollars, each seasonally adjusted separately,
and adding this result to seasonally adjusted M2.

Debt: The debt aggregate is the outstanding credit market debt of
the domestic nonfinancial sectors--the federal sector (U.S.
government, not including government-sponsored enterprises or
federally related mortgage pools) and the nonfederal sectors
(state and local governments, households and nonprofit
organizations, nonfinancial corporate and nonfarm noncorporate
businesses, and farms). Nonfederal debt consists of mortgages,
tax-exempt and corporate bonds, consumer credit, bank loans,
commercial paper, and other loans. The data, which are derived
from the Federal Reserve Board's flow of funds accounts, are
break-adjusted (that is, discontinuities in the data have been
smoothed into the series) and month-averaged (that is, the data
have been derived by averaging adjacent month-end levels).

(3.) Currency outside the U.S. Treasury, Federal Reserve Banks,
and vaults of depository institutions.

(4.) Outstanding amount of U.S. dollar-denominated travelers checks
of nonbank issuers. Travelers checks issued by depository
institutions are included in demand deposits.

(5.) Demand deposits at commercial banks and foreign-related
institutions other than those owed to depository institutions, the
U.S. government, and foreign banks and official institutions, less
cash items in the process of collection and Federal Reserve float.

(6.) Consists of NOW and ATS account balances at all depository
institutions, credit union share draft account balances, and
demand deposits at thrift institutions.

(7.) Sum of (1) savings deposits (including MMDAs), (2) small time
deposits, and (3) retail money fund balances.

(8.) Sum of (1) large time deposits, (2) institutional money fund
balances, (3) RP liabilities (overnight and term) issued by
depository institutions, and (4) Eurodollars (overnight and
term) of U.S. addressees.

(9.) Small time deposits--including retail RPs--are those issued
in amounts of less than $100,000. All IRAs and Keogh accounts at
commercial banks and thrift institutions are subtracted from small
time deposits.

(10.) Large time deposits are those issued in amounts of $100,000
or more, excluding those booked at international banking facilities.

(11.) Large time deposits at commercial banks less those held by
money market funds, depository institutions, the U.S. government,
and foreign banks and official institutions.

(12.) Includes both overnight and tenn.
