The Board is amending Regulation D, Reserve Requirements of Depository Institutions, to reflect the annual indexing of the low reserve tranche and the reserve requirement exemption for 2003, and announces the annual indexing of the deposit reporting cutoff level that will be effective beginning in September 2003. The amendments increase the amount of transaction accounts subject to a reserve requirement ratio of three percent in 2003, as required by section 19(b)(2)(C) of the Federal Reserve Act, from $41.3 million to $42.1 million of net transaction accounts. This adjustment is known as the low reserve tranche adjustment. The Board is increasing from $5.7 million to $6.0 million the amount of reservable liabilities of each depository institution that is subject to a reserve requirement of zero percent in 2003. This action is required by section 19(b)(11)(B) of the Federal Reserve Act, and the adjustment is known as the reservable liabilities exemption adjustment. The Board is also increasing the deposit cutoff level that is used in conjunction with the reservable liabilities exemption to determine the frequency of deposit reporting from $106.9 million to $112.3 million for nonexempt depository institutions. (Nonexempt institutions are those with total reservable liabilities exceeding the amount exempted from reserve requirements.) Thus, beginning in September 2003, nonexempt institutions with total deposits of $112.3 million or more will be required to report weekly while nonexempt institutions with total deposits less than $112.3 million may report quarterly, in both cases on form FR 2900. Exempt institutions with at least $6.0 million in total deposits may report annually on form FR 2910a.
