Effective with this release of data for July 4, 2007, several changes have been made to the balance sheet items reported for large and small domestically chartered commercial banks:
For seasonally adjusted and not seasonally adjusted assets and liabilities of large domestically chartered banks (pages 5 and 7), former item 12a, "State and local government" loans, and former item 12b, "Agricultural" loans, have been discontinued and the remaining three items under item 12 have been renumbered as 12a through 12c. Data for the two discontinued items have been aggregated into renumbered item 12b, "All other loans."
For seasonally adjusted and not seasonally adjusted assets and liabilities of small domestically chartered banks (pages 9 and 10), former item 11, "Security" loans, has been discontinued and data for this item have been aggregated into existing item 12, "Other loans and leases."
For memo items of large domestically chartered banks (page 13), former item 34, "Securitized business loans," has been discontinued. On the same page, new item 34, "Securitized real estate loans," has been added to the memo items for both large and small domestically chartered banks.
The data also reflect shifts in reporters between the large and small domestic bank reporting panels.
