^Commitments for term loans are those for loans with an original maturity of more than 1 year.
^Revolving credits are commitment agreements whereby the borrower may draw and repay
loans at will with no repayment penalty and under which the commitment rebounds by an equal

term loans or revolving credits, that are made known to the customer but are not characterized by

approximately 85 per cent of commercial and industrial loans, 95 per cent of nonbank financial
loans, and 75 per cent of real estate-loans of all weekly reporting banks. Individual items may not
