The Board is amending Regulation D, Reserve Requirements of Depository Institutions, to reflect the annual indexing of the low reserve tranche and of the reserve requirement exemption amount for 2005. The Board is also announcing the annual indexing of the nonexempt deposit cutoff level and the reduced reporting limit that will be effective beginning in September 2005. The Regulation D amendments increase the amount of net transaction accounts at each depository institution that is subject to a three percent reserve requirement in 2005 from $45.4 million to $47.6 million. This amount is known as the low reserve tranche. The Regulation D amendments also increase the amount of total reservable liabilities of each depository institution that is subject to a zero percent reserve requirement in 2005 from $6.6 million to $7.0 million. This amount is known as the reserve requirement exemption amount. The adjustments to both of these amounts are derived using statutory formulas specified in the Federal Reserve Act. The Board is also announcing increases in two other amounts, the nonexempt deposit cutoff level and the reduced reporting limit, that are used to determine the frequency with which depository institutions must submit deposit reports. The nonexempt deposit cutoff level is being increased from $161.2 million in 2004 to $169.8 million in 2005, and the reduced reporting limit is being increased from $1.074 billion in 2004 to $1.131 billion in 2005. These amounts are indexed annually in order to reduce reporting burden for smaller depository institutions. Thus, beginning in September 2005, depository institutions will be required to file the FR 2900 report each week under the following conditions: If they have net transaction accounts over $7.0 million and have total deposits of at least $169.8 million; or if they have net transaction accounts of $7.0 million or less but have total deposits of at least $1.131 billion. Depository institutions will be required to file t
