Abstract

The Board is amending Regulation D, Reserve Requirements of Depository Institutions, to decrease the amount of transaction accounts subject to a reserve requirement ratio of three percent, as required by section 19(b)(2)(C) of the Federal Reserve Act, from $52.0 million to $49.3 million of net transaction accounts. This adjustment is known as the low reserve tranche adjustment. The Board is increasing from $4.3 million to $4.4 million the amount of reservable liabilities of each depository institution that is subject to a reserve requirement of zero percent. 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 levels that are used in conjunction with the reservable liabilities exemption to determine the frequency of deposit reporting from $57.0 million to $59.3 million for nonexempt depository institutions and from $46.4 million to $48.2 million for exempt institutions. (Nonexempt institutions are those with total reservable liabilities exceeding the amount exempted from reserve requirements ($4.4 million) while exempt institutions are those with total reservable liabilities not exceeding the amount exempted from reserve requirements.) Thus nonexempt institutions with total deposits of $59.3 million or more will be required to report weekly while nonexempt institutions with total deposits less than $59.3 million may report quarterly, in both cases on form FR 2900. Similarly, exempt institutions with total deposits of $48.2 million or more will be required to report quarterly on form FR 2910q while exempt institutions with total deposits less than $48.2 million may report annually on form FR 2910a.
