TRANSACTIONS

IN

2002
After slightly narrowing during the cyclical
slowdown of 2001, the U.S. current account
deficit widened in 2002, as it had over the previous decade. Two-thirds of the increase in the
deficit last year was attributable to an increase
in the deficit for trade in goods and services.
In addition, net investment income receded as
receipts from abroad declined more than payments on foreign investments in the United
States. The record $503 billion U.S. current
account deficit registered in 2002 was financed
by continued high levels of private capital
inflows and stepped-up foreign official purchases of U.S. assets.
If economic activity picks up in the United
States and in its major trading partners later this
year, as most forecasters expect, the U.S. external deficit likely will widen as U.S. imports of
goods and services rise by a greater amount than
U.S. exports of goods and services. The decline
in the dollar from early 2002 to date is unlikely
to restrain the widening of the deficit by much,
as it has been relatively small and its effects will
be spread over a number of years.

U.S. International Transactions in 2002
Steven B. Kamin, of the Board's Division of International Finance, prepared this article. Faith E.
Darling provided research assistance.
After slightly narrowing during the cyclical slowdown of 2001, the U.S. current account deficit widened in 2002, as it had over the previous decade.
Two-thirds of the increase in the deficit last year was
attributable to an increase in the deficit for trade in
goods and services. In addition, net investment
income receded as receipts from abroad declined
more than payments on foreign investments in the
United States.
Most of the rise in the trade deficit in 2002 was the
result of an increase in the value of imported goods
and services. Imports had declined sharply in the
previous year in response to the slowdown in U.S.
economic activity, and as activity accelerated in 2002,
imports reversed much of their earlier decline.
Although the pace of expansion also began to pick up
in the economies of the United States' foreign trading
partners last year, the value of U.S. exports declined
for the second year in a row, albeit to a much smaller
extent than in 2001.1 These movements caused the

2002 as a whole was below its 2001 level, exports actually rose f r o m

deficit in goods and services to rise to $436 billion in
2002 (table 1).
A swing in the balance on investment income,
from a $21 billion surplus in 2001 to a $5 billion
deficit in 2002, reflected primarily a decline in net
direct investment income. Increases in the profitability of foreign direct investment in the United States
last year helped to boost payments to foreigners
above the abnormally low levels of 2001. Receipts on
U.S. direct investment abroad were held back by
continued economic slack and low profits in many
foreign economies. The deficit in portfolio income
rose very slightly but would have increased considerably more were it not for the low levels of interest
rates at home and abroad.
The record $503 billion current account deficit
registered in 2002 was also a record as a share of
GDP—4.8 percent (chart 1). The counterpart of this
deficit was a $474 billion surplus in the financial
account balance, an increase of $92 billion over the
2001 financial account surplus. The rise in the surplus was attributable primarily to stepped-up foreign
official purchases of U.S. assets; changes in the components of private capital flows largely offset each
other. The statistical discrepancy in the U.S. international accounts also rose.
An implication of the large U.S. current account
deficits in recent years has been that, taken together,

MAJOR ECONOMIC INFLUENCES
INTERNATIONAL
TRANSACTIONS

ON U.S.

Several factors had a significant influence on U.S.
international transactions in 2002: the emergence
of the U.S. and foreign economies from the cyclical
2.

Activity

After remaining unchanged during 2001, U.S. real
GDP increased 2.9 percent between the fourth quarter
of 2001 and the fourth quarter of 2002 (table 2).
Economic conditions turned up notably during the
first half of the year. Household spending on both
personal consumption items and housing remained
solid, businesses curtailed their inventory liquidation
and began to raise spending on some types of capital
equipment, and private employment began to edge
higher. For the first half of 2002, real GDP grew
3.1 percent at an annual rate.
However, the momentum of the recovery diminished somewhat as the year progressed. Concerns
about corporate governance weighed on financial
markets, and a rise in international tensions boosted
oil prices and exacerbated uncertainties already faced
by businesses about the economic outlook. By midsummer, stock prices had declined, risk spreads widened, and liquidity eroded in corporate debt markets.
These developments, combined with a high degree of
underlying caution on the part of businesses, contributed to continued weak capital spending. With for-

The Foreign Counterpart to the U.S. Current Account Deficit
The counterpart of the current account deficit in the United
States is an aggregate current account surplus in the rest of
the world. Current account balances are influenced by a
variety of factors that differ from country to country, and
those of foreign economies exhibit quite diverse movements as the US. current account changes. In the 1980s,
during the last large run-up in the U.S. current account
deficit, much of the imbalance was matched by current
account surpluses in the economies of the European Union
(EU) and Japan. For example, in 1987, the U.S. current
account deficit reached $161 billion, or 3.4 percent of GDP,
while the EU countries and Japan recorded current account
surpluses of $28 billion and $85 billion respectively
(chart A). This state of affairs was broadly consistent with
the importance of these two areas in U.S. trade at the time:
Together, the EU countries and Japan accounted for about
40 percent of U.S. exports and imports. It was also consistent with the especially marked rise in the foreign exchange
value of the dollar against the currencies of those countries
in the mid-1980s.
The most recent rise in the US. current account deficit
has been associated with a distribution of counterpart surpluses abroad that differs somewhat from the 1980s pattern.
As in the mid-1980s, Japan is running a surplus, although at
about $110 billion last year it is only moderately larger than
in 1987, even as the U.S. deficit is currently about three
times as large as it was then. The European Union's surplus
last year was only about $50 billion, a small counterpart
to the U.S. deficit. Conversely, the Asian emerging-market
economies, whose share of US. imports has risen from
about 16 percent in the mid-1980s to about 24 percent more
recently, ran a current account surplus of nearly $120 billion in 2002, a considerably larger balance than they

recorded in the mid-1980s (chart B). Finally, the largest
single counterpart to the U.S. imbalance is the global statistical discrepancy, which is the negative of the sum of the
world's current accounts (chart C). In principle, the world's
current accounts should sum to zero, but because of statistical problems and misreporting of payments and receipts, the
statistical discrepancy is generally not zero and can sometimes be quite large. Increases in oil revenues earned by
countries whose international transactions are not well
reported, along with rising cross-border holdings of assets
(returns on which also are frequently underreported), may
explain some of the growth of the discrepancy in recent
years.

eign demand for U.S. products weakening as well,
manufacturers trimmed production during the fall.
Employment in the private sector declined again, and
the unemployment rate moved up, reaching 6 percent
in December. For the second half of 2002, the growth
of real GDP declined to 2.7 percent at an annual rate,
and for the fourth quarter it was only 1.4 percent.

Foreign Economic

Activity

After a pronounced slowdown in 2001, economic
activity accelerated in the economies of U.S. trading
partners in 2002 as it did in the United States. Higher
growth abroad reflected a number of factors, including monetary and fiscal stimulus, reductions in the
pace of inventory liquidation, and the effect of
increasing economic activity in the United States.
The pickup in growth abroad, as in the United States,
was concentrated in the first half of last year, as a
strong rally in the high-tech exporting economies of
emerging-market Asia was joined by robust growth
in Canada and, to a lesser extent, Mexico. Growth
in other regions—including the euro area and South
America—remained subdued. As the U.S. economy
decelerated in the second half, the pace of recovery
slowed in Asia and Canada, while performance
remained lackluster in much of the rest of the world.
The Canadian economy registered the strongest
performance among the major foreign economies last
year despite some slowing in the second half. Its
strength reflected robust growth of consumption and
residential construction as well as an end to inventory
runoffs early in the year. As a net oil exporter, Canada
has also benefited from the high level of oil prices,
and because it is less dependent on high-tech production than is the United States, it likewise suffered less
from the on-going weakness in that sector.
The Japanese economy grew during 2002, although
the pace of growth was barely enough to offset the
decline in output that took place in 2001. Japanese
growth was driven mainly by exports, with smaller
contributions coming from increased consumption
and a slower pace of inventory reduction. However,
private investment spending and conditions in labor
markets remained weak, and deflation continued.
Economic performance in the euro area was quite
sluggish last year. Although exports were up, growth
in consumption was modest, and private investment
declined. Economic weakness was especially pronounced in some of the larger countries—Germany,
Italy, and, to a lesser extent, France—while growth
in some of the smaller euro-area countries was more
robust.



In the emerging-market economies last year, economic performance diverged considerably between
Asia and Mexico, on the one hand, and the rest of
Latin America, on the other. The Asian emergingmarket economies generally performed well in 2002;
they were led, as in previous years, by China, where
real GDP again expanded more than 7 percent. Of the
other emerging Asian economies, Korea recorded the
strongest growth. The economy grew more rapidly in
the first half of the year, when global demand for
high-tech products rose most quickly and domestic
demand (especially consumption) surged; growth
slowed in the second half of the year as global
high-tech demand weakened and tensions over
North Korea intensified. Other economies in the
region, including some of the larger Southeast Asian
economies and Taiwan, also exhibited strong performance in the first half of 2002 followed by some
weakening of growth in the second.
One of the few bright spots in Latin America last
year was the Mexican economy—boosted by the U.S.
recovery, its growth was moderate for the year as a
whole despite some late slowing. Conversely, much
of South America was beset by adverse economic,
financial, and political developments. In Brazil, economic activity managed to expand in 2002, despite
considerable financial volatility surrounding the
October presidential election. Argentine GDP contracted further in 2002 after declining 10 percent in
2001, although financial and economic conditions
appeared to stabilize in the second half of the year.
Output plunged in Venezuela in the midst of extreme
economic and political turmoil, including a coup
attempt in April and a national strike declared in
December.

Primary-Commodity

Prices

Oil prices began 2002 at less than $20 per barrel for
West Texas intermediate (chart 2), having declined
considerably in the previous year amidst widespread
economic weakness. Much of the decline occurred
after the events of September 11, 2001, in response to
a fall in jet fuel consumption, weaker economic activity, and reassurances of stable supply from Saudi
Arabia. However, oil prices began rising again in
February and March of 2002 in response to both
improving global economic activity and a productionlimiting agreement among OPEC and some major
non-OPEC producers. As a consequence of this
agreement, actual production declined, albeit not to
the extent implied by the agreed limits. Heightened
tensions in the Middle East, along with severe politi-

Coast, which produces a substantial fraction of the
world's cocoa. Production restraint by copper producers led to a slight gain in the price of that commodity.
Finally, the price of gold shot up more than 20 percent last year, most likely in response to heightened
global tensions.

cal turmoil in Venezuela, also put upward pressure on
oil prices. A strike in Venezuela, which began on
December 2, 2002, caused already meager crude oil
inventories in the United States to fall to levels not
seen since the 1970s; the reduced inventories exacerbated the effect of the reduced production on oil
prices.
Prices of nonfuel primary commodities (chart 3)
also picked up somewhat last year after falling
steadily throughout much of 2001. Most of the
increase in prices reflected decreases in supply.
Adverse weather in many parts of the world reduced
harvests and sent prices of several agricultural
commodities—wheat, soybeans, and cotton—
soaring, albeit from very depressed levels. Also,
cocoa prices rose because of a civil war in Ivory
3.

Competitiveness

Changes in the price competitiveness of U.S. export
and import-competing industries last year were primarily the result of changes in the foreign exchange
value of the dollar, as well as relative movements in
inflation rates at home and abroad. The price-adjusted
broad dollar index is a measure of the foreign
exchange value of the dollar in terms of the currencies of the United States' principal trading partners,
adjusted for relative movements in U.S. and foreign
inflation rates. Having appreciated substantially since
the mid-1990s, the broad real dollar index extended
its mild upward trend into the early part of 2002
(chart 4). However, the dollar weakened sharply in
late spring and early summer amid deepening concerns about U.S. corporate governance and profitability. Around that time, market analysts also appeared
to become more worried about the growing U.S.
current account deficit and its potential negative
influence on the future value of the dollar. After
strengthening a bit around midyear as growth prospects for other major economies appeared to dim, the
broad real dollar index dropped again late in the year
as geopolitical tensions intensified; it registered a
13A percent decline for the year as a whole.

Federal Reserve Bulletin • May 2003

In 2002, the dollar depreciated against all of the
major currencies—those currencies that trade widely
in international financial markets—but the magnitude
of these declines varied. The dollar showed particular
weakness against the euro; the dollar's decline of
16 percent more than reversed a substantial portion
of its rise against the euro in the preceding couple of
years. The dollar declined about 10 percent against
the yen last year. Relative to the Canadian dollar,
however, the U.S. dollar declined only 1 percent on
balance.
Even as the dollar declined 7 percent on a priceadjusted basis against the major currencies last
year, it appreciated 41/2 percent against a weighted
average of the currencies of other U.S. trading partners. This appreciation occurred despite a decline
in the dollar against the currencies of Asian
emerging-market economies and is accounted for
almost entirely by a rise of the dollar against the
Mexican peso.

DEVELOPMENTS
SERVICES

IN U.S. TRADE IN GOODS

AND

The U.S. trade deficit in goods and services, having
narrowed significantly in 2001, widened in 2002 and
thereby resumed its trend of the past decade (table 3).
The $77 billion expansion of the trade deficit last
year reflected a $51 billion rise in the nominal value
of imports and a $26 billion reduction—the second
annual decline—in exports.
Movements in the annual totals of exports and
imports from 2001 to 2002, however, obscure important movements of these trade figures over the course
of last year. Nominal exports of goods and services
hit their recent low in the fourth quarter of 2001 and
then recovered substantially in the second and third
quarters of 2002 before reversing some of these gains
in the fourth quarter (chart 5). Hence, while the
average value of exports in 2002 was below its 2001
level, owing to its very depressed level at the start of

Measured both in terms of nominal values (table 3)
and quantities (table 4), imports rose faster than
exports between the fourth quarter of 2001 and the
fourth quarter of 2002. Imports grew faster than
exports despite the fact that real GDP here and abroad
grew at about the same rate last year. This development is consistent, however, with a historical pattern in which the responsiveness of U.S. imports to
income in the United States has been greater than the
responsiveness of U.S. exports to income in the rest
of the world. Moreover, because capital goods constitute a greater fraction of U.S. exports than they do of
U.S. imports, the weakness in investment spending
both here and abroad last year weighed more heavily
on exports than on imports. Finally, although the
dollar depreciated last year, the lagged effects of its
earlier appreciation continued to support imports
while restraining exports.

Exports
The 5 percent rise in the nominal value of exported
goods and services between the fourth quarter of
2001 and the fourth quarter of 2002 reflects much
stronger growth in exports of services than of goods.
Services receipts rose 14 percent over this period
after having declined sharply in 2001; much of the
rebound was in receipts from foreign travelers in the
United States, which recovered somewhat in 2002
following a plunge immediately after the September 11 terrorist attacks. Receipts from foreigners for
other services moved up smartly as well.
In contrast, nominal exports of goods rose only
2 percent in 2002 (Q4 to Q4); they were held back by
a 1 percent decline in export sales of capital goods.
This slowing likely reflected the pronounced weakness of investment spending during the recent global
slowdown, even as consumption spending held up
more strongly. Especially large percentage declines
in exports of computer and telecommunication equipment were consistent with continued weakness in the
high-tech sector (as well as trend declines in computer prices), while the slight rise in exports of semiconductors reversed very little of their pronounced
decline in 2001.
Outside of the capital goods sector, exports of
industrial supplies grew substantially over the course
of 2002, but most of this increase reflected higher
prices rather than a sharp pick-up in quantities.
Exports of automotive products also showed some
strength; the increase was more than accounted for
by higher shipments of vehicles and parts to Canada.
The relatively flat dollar-value of sales of food, feed,

and beverages abroad reflected the offsetting effects
of a sharp contraction in exported quantities of these
products, in part resulting from poor harvests, and
corresponding increases in their prices.
The distribution of U.S. sales of goods to different
parts of the world in 2002 (table 5) was substantially
influenced by the economic performance of our trading partners. Exports of goods to those regions showing the strongest performance last year—Canada, the
Asian emerging-market economies, and Mexico—
moved up on a Q4-to-Q4 basis, while sales to weaker
economies—those of western Europe, Japan, and
South America—declined. The rise over the course
of 2002 in sales to Canada, which account for
nearly a quarter of U.S. goods exports, was primarily
accounted for by automotive products, industrial supplies, and consumer goods and was driven by strong
household spending. Capital goods, which represent
the largest end-use category of sales to Canada,
remained about flat. Exports to the Asian emergingmarket economies were boosted primarily by higher
sales of industrial supplies (especially chemicals)
and capital goods. In both western Europe and
Japan, where economic activity has continued to be
restrained by weak business investment, mild
declines in U.S. goods exports resulted almost
entirely from reductions in sales of capital goods.
The quantity of exports rose 4 percent in 2002
(Q4 to Q4) after declining sharply the previous year
(table 4). As with movements in their value, the
quantity of exported services rose considerably faster
than that of goods. Exports of all major categories
rose except for foods, feeds, and beverages, which
declined markedly, and capital equipment.

NOTE. Price indexes are chain-weighted. See also notes to table 4.

After declining in 2001 in response to the slowdown in global growth, export prices rose 2 percent
last year (Q4 to Q4, table 6); they were boosted by
higher global growth, an associated firming of commodity prices (including petroleum prices), and perhaps some effects from the weakening dollar. Services prices recovered as demand for travel moved
back up from lows reached after the events of
September 11, 2001. Weather-related supply disruptions drove up prices of foods, feeds, and beverages
7 percent, while higher costs of petroleum products,
natural gas, lumber, and steel led to a 5 percent rise
in prices of industrial supplies. Prices of exported
capital equipment edged down again last year and
reflected trend declines in the prices of computers
and semiconductors.

Imports
The value of imports rose 14 percent from the fourth
quarter of 2001 to the fourth quarter of 2002 (table 3),
though this gain in part reflects a bounce-back from
the depressed levels reached in the aftermath of
September 11, 2001. Services, rebounding especially
quickly, rose 19 percent over the same period. As on

U.S. International Transactions in 2002

the exports side, a surge in travel-related spending by
U.S. residents abroad following the lows reached
after September 11, 2001, accounted for much of
this increase, although other types of services rose
as well. Imports of goods also rose briskly over the
course of last year, with increases on a Q4-to-Q4
basis registered for both the oil and non-oil
categories.

Oil Imports
The value of oil imports rose 46 percent from the
fourth quarter of 2001 to the fourth quarter of 2002
(table 3). This sharp rise primarily reflected a 40 percent rebound in the price of imported oil last year
from its low level at the end of 2001. Additionally,
the pickup in U.S. economic growth in 2002 led
to a small rise in the quantity of oil imports on a
Q4-to-Q4 basis; the quantity of oil imports was also
boosted by some bounce-back from unusually
depressed levels immediately after September 11,
2001, when travel fell off sharply. With domestic oil
consumption last year exceeding the sum of imported
and domestically produced oil, oil inventories
declined.

Non-oil Imports
The quantity of non-oil imports rose 10 percent in
2002 (Q4 to Q4, table 4), reversing a decline of
similar magnitude in the previous year. Reflecting the
consumer-led nature of U.S. real GDP growth last
year, increases were led by double-digit gains in real
imports of automotive products and consumer goods.
Imports of industrial supplies and capital equipment
rose more moderately, with the latter being held back
by a 20 percent decline in imports of aircraft and
parts, which are quite volatile. Imports of both computer equipment and semiconductors bounced back
in 2002 after sharp declines the previous year, but
increases in the larger "Other machinery and equipment" category were more moderate and were well
below the pace of the previous year's decline.
Several factors contributed to the substantial
growth in the quantity of non-oil imports last year,
which considerably outpaced the rise in U.S. GDP.
First, as noted above, imports were unusually
depressed in the fourth quarter of 2001, so some of
the subsequent growth reflected a return to more
normal levels. Second, U.S. non-oil imports, and tradable goods in general, are particularly cyclically sensitive. This sensitivity may result from the fact that



199

the demand for goods tends to fluctuate over the
course of the business cycle more than does the
demand for services and hence more than does GDP
as a whole; therefore, non-oil goods imports are also
likely to fluctuate more widely than total GDP. To
illustrate, the quantity of non-oil imports declined
9 percent in 2001 (Q4 to Q4), when U.S. activity had
slowed but did not decline; non-oil imports then rose
10 percent in 2002, when U.S. growth picked up to
only about 3 percent.2 Third, as noted earlier, over
long periods of time, U.S. imports have tended to
grow more rapidly than U.S. GDP (even as exports
have grown more in line with the GDP of U.S.
trading partners). Finally, imports were likely buoyed
by the value of the dollar, which remained quite
strong by historical standards, notwithstanding some
declines over the course of the year.
Prices of non-oil imports were flat last year after
falling 4 percent in 2001 (table 6). Higher commodity
prices, as well as the effects of the fall in the dollar
later in the year, led to notable increases in the prices
of imported industrial supplies and foods, feeds, and
beverages. However, prices of computers and semiconductors extended their persistent declines, while
still-weak demand in global manufacturing likely
contributed to further declines in the prices of other
machinery and equipment as well as consumer goods.
A brisk 7 percent rise in services prices last year
probably reflected the decline in the dollar.

DEVELOPMENTS

IN THE NONTRADE

CURRENT

ACCOUNT

The major components of the current account other
than trade in goods and services are investment
income and unilateral transfers.

Investment

Income

Net investment income is the difference between the
income that U.S. residents earn on their holdings of
foreign assets (receipts) and the income that foreigners earn on their holdings of U.S. assets (payments).
If the rates of return on both of these holdings were
equal, then movements in net investment income
2. Analogously, the quantity of U.S. goods exports declined 12 percent from the fourth quarter of 2000 to the fourth quarter of 2001,
when foreign growth declined to about zero. With foreign growth
having recovered to nearly 3 percent in 2002, however, it is not clear
why the growth of real goods exports rose only to 1 percent. This slow
growth reflected an anomalous decline in December that was partially
reversed in January 2003.

would exactly mirror movements in the net international investment position, that is, the difference
between U.S. holdings of foreign assets and foreign
holdings of U.S. assets. The net international investment position turned negative in 1986 and has
declined progressively further since then as large net
financial inflows have financed the United States'
current account deficits (chart 6). Even as foreign
acquisition of U.S. assets has substantially outpaced
U.S. acquisition of foreign assets, however, net
investment income remained positive until 2002
(table 7), as rates of return on U.S. holdings abroad—
primarily through direct investments—have exceeded
returns on foreign holdings in the United States.

direct investment in the United States—declined
$25 billion in 2002, to $78 billion (table 7). A small
increase in direct investment receipts was outweighed
by a much larger rise in payments last year.
The $2 billion pickup in receipts on U.S. direct
investment abroad last year was relatively meager,
considering that the U.S. gross direct investment position abroad rose roughly $100 billion (chart 7) and
that total foreign growth rebounded after stagnating
in 2001. However, profits are likely to be related
more to the level of capacity utilization than to the
growth of real GDP as such. Foreign growth picked
up last year but probably not enough to substantially
increase resource utilization and profits. Moreover,
more than half of U.S. direct investment is in Europe,
where growth remained low relative to that in the
United States or other U.S. trading partners. All of
these factors likely held back the growth of receipts
on U.S. direct investment abroad last year.

In contrast to receipts, payments rose a substantial
$27 billion last year, bouncing back after a $38 billion decline in 2001. A small increase in foreign
direct investment holdings in the United States
(chart 8) explains some of the increase in payments.
More importantly, increases in the profitability of
foreign investments in the U.S. last year followed
abnormally low levels in 2001 and helped to boost
payments. The recovery in these profits was widespread, but the industries that fell most sharply in
2001—manufacturing and wholesale trade—showed
the largest growth in 2002.

to net debtor, and it followed the general contour of
the net investment position in subsequent years. More
recently, however, declines in interest rates have
tended to reduce both payments and receipts, thereby
leading the deficit in portfolio income to widen more
slowly than it would have otherwise. This effect was
particularly pronounced last year, when the negative
net income balance widened only $1 billion, to
$83 billion.

Portfolio Investment Income

Unilateral Transfers

Portfolio receipts represent the dividend and interest
income that U.S. residents receive on their holdings
of foreign financial assets, whereas portfolio payments represent the dividends and interest that foreigners receive on their holdings of U.S. financial
assets. The Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA)
estimates these payments and receipts by applying
estimates of the interest or dividend-payout rates for
various assets to estimates of the holdings of those
assets. Portfolio investment income does not include
capital gains or losses associated with changes in
asset prices.
Movements in net portfolio income—receipts
minus payments—have tracked movements in the
U.S. net portfolio investment position fairly closely
(chart 9) because rates of return on portfolio investments in the United States and abroad are quite
similar (chart 10). Net portfolio income turned negative in 1985, the same year that the net portfolio
investment position moved from that of net creditor

from foreigners. In 2002, the deficit on net unilateral
transfers widened to $56 billion.
FINANCIAL AND CAPITAL
TRANSACTIONS

ACCOUNT

The counterpart of the increased U.S. current account
deficit last year was a rise in net financial inflows of
foreign savings. In recent years, net private capital
inflows have accounted for most of the overall net
inflows required to finance the current account deficit, and 2002 was no exception. However, even as the
current account deficit rose to a record $503 billion
last year, net private capital inflows remained about
unchanged at $381 billion, while net official inflows
jumped to $93 billion (table 8).
A prominent theme in last year's capital flows was
the reduced demand by private foreign entities for
U.S. corporate assets. Private foreign net purchases of
all U.S. securities declined $62 billion in 2002. Net
purchases of U.S. corporate and other bonds and of
corporate stocks fell $41 billion and $63 billion
respectively. These declines were only partially offset
by a positive $43 billion swing of flows into U.S.
Treasury and agency securities; these flows appear to

have been driven by a flight to safety among investors. Private foreign direct investment in the United
States also fell off substantially, from $131 billion in
2001 to $30 billion in 2002.
The decline in the demand for claims on the U.S.
private sector last year may have been associated
with increased concerns about future profitability and
returns; these concerns were perhaps prompted by
the uneven recovery of the U.S. economy and the
continued poor performance of equity markets. Similar concerns may have prompted an analogous pullback of U.S. investments abroad. Private U.S. net
purchases of foreign securities plummeted from
$95 billion in 2001 to about zero last year. This drop
reflected net sales of foreign bonds by U.S. private
investors for the second consecutive year as well as
sharply reduced purchases of foreign stocks. U.S.
direct investment abroad held up, but that was due
to U.S. corporations not repatriating earnings and
extending more credit to their foreign affiliates; new
equity capital channeled toward direct investment
abroad fell from $50 billion in 2001 to $27 billion
last year.
With private foreign purchases of U.S. assets falling about as much as private U.S. purchases of

foreign assets, private net capital flows were about
unchanged last year, even as the current account
deficit rose $110 billion. Most of this shortfall in
private financing was made up by a substantial rise in
official net capital inflows to $93 billion, with nearly
all of the remaining shortfall showing up in the
statistical discrepancy. The higher pace of these
acquisitions last year may have reflected the desire of
some foreign authorities to restrain the rise in their
currencies' value against the dollar by intervening in
foreign exchange markets. This explanation is suggested by the concentration of foreign official inflows
in the second and fourth quarters of last year, when
the foreign exchange value of the dollar registered its
largest declines.
Capital account transactions, which consist mainly
of debt forgiveness and wealth transfers associated
with immigration, netted to $1 billion last year, the
same amount as in the previous two years.




PROSPECTS

FOR

203

2003

Forecasters generally expect that rates of economic
growth will pick up both in the United States and in
its major trading partners later this year and in 2004.
Assuming this acceleration of activity takes place as
expected, the U.S. external deficit likely will widen as
U.S. imports of goods and services rise by a greater
amount than U.S. exports of goods and services. The
decline in the dollar that has been observed from
early 2002 to date is unlikely to restrain the widening
of the deficit by much, as it has been relatively
small—about 5 percent for the broad real dollar
index—and its effects will be spread over a number
of years. In fact, the initial effect of a depreciation of
the dollar is generally to raise the U.S. current account
deficit temporarily, since it raises import prices,
and hence the value of imports, more rapidly than it
stimulates sales of exports.

FEDERAL OPEN MARKET
DIRECTIVE

COMMITTEE

The Federal Open Market Committee decided on
March 18, 2003, to keep its target for the federal
funds rate unchanged at 1 VA percent.
While incoming economic data since the January
meeting have been mixed, recent labor market indicators have proven disappointing. However, the hesitancy of the economic expansion appears to owe
importantly to oil price premiums and other aspects
of geopolitical uncertainties. The Committee believes
that as those uncertainties lift, as most analysts
expect, the accommodative stance of monetary policy, coupled with ongoing growth in productivity,
will provide support to economic activity sufficient to
engender an improving economic climate over time.
In light of the unusually large uncertainties clouding the geopolitical situation in the short run and their
apparent effects on economic decisionmaking, the
Committee does not believe it can usefully characterize the current balance of risks with respect to the
prospects for its long-run goals of price stability and
sustainable economic growth. Rather, the Committee
decided to refrain from making that determination
until some of those uncertainties abate. In the current
circumstances, heightened surveillance is particularly
informative.

REVISIONS TO OFFICIAL
ON REGULATION
Z

STAFF

COMMENTARY

The Federal Reserve Board on March 28, 2003,
issued revisions to the official staff commentary that
applies and interprets the requirements of Regulation Z, which implements the Truth in Lending Act.
The commentary revisions discuss the status of
certain credit-card-related fees and the rules for



replacing an accepted credit card with one or more
cards.
In addition, the commentary revisions discuss the
disclosure of private mortgage insurance premiums
and the selection of Treasury security yields for determining whether a mortgage loan is covered by provisions in Regulation Z that implement the Home Ownership and Equity Protection Act.
At the time the proposed commentary revisions
were published in December 2002, the Board also
requested comment and information from the public about the design and operation of overdraft or
"bounced check" protection services. Board staff is
continuing to gather information on these services
and will determine at a later date whether additional
guidance for financial institutions is warranted under
Regulation Z or other laws.
The revisions are effective April 1, 2003. The date
for mandatory compliance is October 1, 2003.

JOINT FEDERAL RESERVE AND
TREASURY
REPORT ON GLOBAL
COUNTERFEITING

The Federal Reserve Board and the Treasury Department on March 14, 2003, issued a joint report to
Congress stating that procedures to combat international counterfeiting of U.S. currency are becoming
more effective.
U.S. dollars are held and widely used around the
world, and the popularity and ubiquity of the dollar
make it a potential target for counterfeiters. The
incidence of counterfeiting has declined markedly
with the introduction of the 1996-series currency. An
upcoming new series currency, to be introduced later
this year, will further enhance the security of U.S.
banknotes.
The report, The Use and Counterfeiting of United
States Currency Abroad, Part II, mandated by the
Congress as part of the Anti-Terrorism and Effective
Death Penalty Act of 1996, represents a comprehensive review of the international use and counterfeiting of U.S. currency. The report details how the
combined efforts of the Treasury, United States
Secret Service, and Federal Reserve have held the
incidence of counterfeiting at relatively low nominal
levels.

205

"We continue to improve our currency and resist
efforts by counterfeiters the world over to produce
and pass counterfeit U.S. notes," said Treasury Secretary John W. Snow. "Only by such efforts can we
guarantee that our currency will continue to remain a
symbol of American strength and stability."
"U.S. currency continues to hold an important
place in the payment system at home and abroad and
maintaining its integrity is of utmost concern to the
Federal Reserve," said Roger Ferguson, Vice Chairman of the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System. "A secure currency precludes the
need for businesses, merchants and the public to
expend significant resources and time validating the
genuineness of currency. When payment systems
work well, the economy functions more efficiently."
This second report to the Congress on the use and
counterfeiting of U.S. currency abroad provides further evidence that improved note designs have been
more difficult for counterfeiters to copy. The result
has been much smaller proportions of counterfeits of
new design notes among notes processed at Federal
Reserve Banks.
According to the report, efforts to protect U.S.
currency continue to be effective. The incidence of
counterfeiting is low, with approximately one counterfeit note per 10,000 notes worldwide. The U.S.
Secret Service is working closely with overseas banks
and law enforcement agencies to help suppress counterfeiting activities.
The report highlights important steps the U.S.
government is currently taking to combat global
counterfeiting:
• The Secret Service web site allows law enforcement agencies and currency handlers worldwide to
report instances of counterfeiting and to learn more
about the characteristics of a suspect note.
• The Federal Reserve Bank of New York has
established overseas cash depots at foreign commercial banks. These facilities allow overseas dollar
users to obtain new U.S. currency more efficiently
and increase the repatriation rate of worn and olddesign U.S. currency.
• U.S. enforcement agencies are working with their
overseas counterparts to target cities and countries
that first receive counterfeit notes in the wholesale
distribution chain.
The study concludes that overseas holdings of U.S
currency ranged between $340 billion and $370 billion out of the roughly $620 billion in U.S. currency
held outside U.S. depository institutions in the last
quarter of 2002.



According to the report, advances in reprographic
and computer technology will continue to necessitate
new and innovative responses to maintain the overall
security of U.S. currency. These efforts will include
further security enhancements to the currency design,
enhanced cooperation with international law enforcement agencies and additional training of foreign law
enforcement, and financial officials in counterfeit
detection.

UPDATE OF INTERAGENCY
ON INTERNAL
AUDITING

POLICY

STATEMENT

The federal banking and thrift regulatory agencies on
March 17, 2003, revised their guidance on the independence of accountants who provide institutions
with both external and internal audit services to
reflect the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of
2002.
The updated Interagency Policy Statement on the
Internal Audit Function and Its Outsourcing, which
replaces a policy issued in 1997, also reflects the
agencies' experience with the 1997 policy and incorporates recent developments in internal auditing. It
was issued by the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, and the Office of Thrift Supervision.
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act and recently adopted
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) rules
prohibit an accounting firm from acting as the external auditor of a public company during the same
period that the firm provides internal audit services to
the company. The revised policy statement separately
discusses the applicability of this prohibition to institutions that are public companies; insured depository
institutions with $500 million or more in assets that
are subject to the annual audit and reporting requirements of section 36 of the Federal Deposit Insurance
Act; and nonpublic institutions that are not subject to
section 36.
The existing guidelines for institutions subject to
section 36 provide for their external auditors to meet
the SEC's independence requirements. Auditors for
these institutions, whether or not they are public
companies, should comply with the prohibition on
internal audit outsourcing in the SEC's rules.
The policy statement encourages nonpublic institutions not subject to section 36, which includes
nonpublic depository institutions with less than

206

Federal Reserve Bulletin • May 2003

$500 million in assets, to refrain from outsourcing
internal audit activities to their external auditor. If
such an institution decides to use the same firm for
both internal and external audit work, however, the
audit committee should document its consideration
of the independence issues associated with this
arrangement.
In addition to changes related to the SarbanesOxley Act, the agencies enhanced the 1997 policy
statement's discussion of the responsibilities of the
board of directors and senior management with
respect to the internal audit function and its placement within an organization, its management and
staffing, and the communication of concerns and
weaknesses in accounting and internal control. The
policy also reiterates the need for institutions to
maintain strong systems of internal control, including internal controls over financial and regulatory
reporting, and high-quality internal audit programs.
Expanded guidance has been provided on the use of
independent reviews of significant internal controls
by small institutions that do not have a formal internal audit manager or staff. The policy statement
also includes guidance for examiners on addressing concerns they may have about the adequacy of
the internal audit function or related outsourcing
arrangements.

INTERAGENCY
PAPER ON SOUND
TO STRENGTHEN
THE RESILIENCE
FINANCIAL
SYSTEM

PRACTICES
OF THE U.S.

Three federal regulatory agencies on April 8, 2003,
issued an "Interagency Paper on Sound Practices to
Strengthen the Resilience of the U.S. Financial System." Among other things, the Board of Governors
of the Federal Reserve System, the Office of the
Comptroller of the Currency, and the Securities and
Exchange Commission identified sound practices
to strengthen the resilience of critical U.S. financial
markets and minimize the immediate systemic effects
of a wide-scale disruption.
On September 5, 2002, the agencies published for
comment a draft of the paper in the Federal Register.
The agencies have incorporated many of the suggestions that were made. The final paper, which applies
most directly to the clearing and settlement activities
of a limited number of financial institutions, provides
more flexibility to firms in managing geographic
dispersion of backup facilities and staffing arrangements, and takes into account other considerations
relevant to cost-effective implementation of sound
practices.



ONLINE RESOURCE
EDUCATION

ON PERSONAL

FINANCIAL

The Federal Reserve Board on March 28, 2003,
announced the launch of an online resource for
researchers, educators, program directors, and others
interested in advancing financial education programs.
The Financial Education Research Center was
developed by the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago
to promote excellence in financial education by
encouraging research and disseminating information
through its repository of research studies and listings
of major financial education programs throughout
the country. The Center is housed on the Chicago
Reserve Bank's web site (www.chicagofed.org/
cedric/index.cfm).
The Federal Reserve Board and the twelve Federal
Reserve Banks undertake a variety of educational
programs and partnerships with financial education
providers. The Financial Education Research Center
is one aspect of the Federal Reserve's efforts to
increase awareness and further the implementation of
effective financial education programs and initiatives.
To date, little broad-based empirical data have been
gathered regarding the most effective means for
improving individuals' personal financial practices.
The online center is an additional tool for those
interested in supporting financial education.
Inquiries regarding the submission of material for
inclusion on the site should be directed to

Allied Irish Banks, p.I.e.
Dublin, Ireland
Order Approving Acquisition of Shares of a Bank
Holding Company
Allied Irish Banks, p.l.c. ("Allied Irish"), a bank holding
company within the meaning of the Bank Holding Company Act ("BHC Act"), has requested the Board's
approval under section 3 of the BHC Act (12 U.S.C.
§ 1842) to acquire up to 25 percent of the voting shares of
M&T Bank Corporation (" M&T") 1 and thereby indirectly
acquire shares of M&T's subsidiary banks, including its
lead subsidiary bank, Manufacturers and Traders Trust
Company, both in Buffalo, New York ("Trust Company"). 2 In addition, Allied Irish has requested the Board's
approval under section 4(c)(8) and (j) of the BHC Act
(12 U.S.C. § 1843(c)(8) and (j)) and section 225.24 of the
Board's Regulation Y (12 C.F.R. 225.24) to acquire shares
of nonbanking subsidiaries of M&T.3 Allied Irish also
has applied under section 211.22(b)(2) of Regulation K
(12 C.F.R. 211.22(b)(2)) to change its home state for purposes of the International Banking Act (12 U.S.C. §3101
et seq. "IBA") from Maryland to New York.
Notice of the proposal, affording interested persons an
opportunity to comment, has been published (67 Federal
Register 69,223 (2002)). The time for filing comments has
1. Under the terms of the proposal, Allied Irish would sell its
wholly owned subsidiary bank holding company, Allfirst Financial
Inc., Baltimore, Maryland ("Allfirst"), to M&T in exchange for the
shares of M&T and other consideration. M&T and Trust Company
have filed related applications with the Board to acquire Allfirst and
Allfirst's nonbanking subsidiaries; to merge Allfirst's lead subsidiary
bank, Allfirst Bank, also in Baltimore, into Trust Company; and for
Trust Company to retain and operate branches at the locations of
Allfirst Bank's offices. By order dated today, the Board has approved
the M&T proposal. M&T Bank Corporation (Order dated March 11,
2003) ("M&T Order").
2. M&T's other subsidiary bank is M&T Bank, N.A., Oakfield,
New York.
3. Allied Irish proposes to acquire shares in: (1) Martindale Andres
& Company, LLC, West Conshohocken, Pennsylvania, and thereby
engage in financial and investment advisory activities pursuant to
section 225.28(b)(6) of Regulation Y (12 C.F.R. 225.28(b)(6)); and
(2) Keystone Financial Life Insurance Corporation, Phoenix, Arizona, and thereby engage in providing credit insurance as principal,
agent, or broker pursuant to section 225.28(b)(ll) of Regulation Y
(12 C.F.R. 225.28(b)(ll)).




expired, and the Board has considered the proposal and all
comments received in light of the factors set forth in
sections 3 and 4 of the BHC Act.
Allied Irish, with total assets of $87.3 billion, is the
largest banking organization in Ireland. 4 Through Allfirst,
it operates banks in Delaware, the District of Columbia,
Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Virginia. Allied Irish also
operates a branch in New York, New York, and representative offices in Atlanta, Georgia; Chicago, Illinois;
Los Angeles, California; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania;
San Francisco, California; and White Plains, New York.
M&T, with total consolidated assets of $34.1 billion,
is the 33rd largest commercial banking organization in
the United States.5 M&T operates banks in Maryland,
New York, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia.
Interstate Analysis
Section 3(d) of the BHC Act allows the Board to approve
an application by a bank holding company to acquire
control of a bank located in a state other than the home
state of the bank holding company if certain conditions are
met. For purposes of the BHC Act, the home state of Allied
Irish is Maryland, and Allied Irish proposes to acquire
banks in Maryland, New York, Pennsylvania, and West
Virginia.6
The Board may not approve a proposal subject to section 3(d) if, after consummation, the applicant would control more than 10 percent of the total deposits of insured
depository institutions in the United States.7 In addition,
the Board may not approve a proposal if, after consummation, the applicant would control 30 percent or more of the
total deposits of insured depository institutions in any state
in which both the applicant and the organization to be

based on the exchange rate then available.
5. Asset data and ranking are as of September 30, 2002. All other
banking data are as of June 30, 2002, unless otherwise noted.
6. A bank holding company's home state is the state in which the
total deposits of all banking subsidiaries of the company were the
largest on July 1, 1966, or the date on which the company became a
bank holding company, whichever is later. 12 U.S.C. § 1841(o)(4)(C).
For purposes of section 3(d) of the BHC Act, the Board considers a
bank to be located in the states in which the bank is chartered,
headquartered, or operates a branch.
Pursuant to the IBA and section 211.22(b)(2) of Regulation K
(12 C.F.R. 211.22(b)(2)), Allied Irish has applied to change its home
state from Maryland to New York on consummation of the proposed
transaction. The Board has determined that Allied Irish satisfies the
criteria for changing its home state and that allowing the proposed
change would be consistent with competitive equity between foreign
and domestic banks.

acquired operate an insured depository institution, or such
higher or lower percentage as established by state law.8
On consummation of this proposal and the related acquisition of Allfirst by M&T, Allied Irish would control less
than 1 percent of the total deposits of insured depository
institutions in the United States. Allied Irish would
control less than 30 percent of total deposits held by
insured depository institutions in Maryland, New York, or
Pennsylvania.9
All other requirements of section 3(d) of the BHC Act
are met. Allied Irish is adequately capitalized and adequately managed, as defined by applicable law. In addition,
M&T's subsidiary banks have been in existence for the
minimum time required by applicable state law.10 In view
of all the facts of record, the Board is permitted to approve
the proposal under section 3(d) of the BHC Act.
Financial, Managerial, and Supervisory Considerations
The BHC Act requires the Board to consider the financial
and managerial resources and future prospects of the companies and banks involved in a proposal and certain other
supervisory factors.11 In assessing the financial and managerial strength of Allied Irish and its subsidiaries, the
Board has reviewed information provided by Allied Irish,
confidential supervisory and examination information, and
publicly reported and other financial information.
Since May 2002, Allied Irish has been subject to a
written agreement with the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond, the Maryland Commissioner of Financial Regulation, and the Central Bank of Ireland (the "Written Agreement") that addresses matters related to foreign exchange
trading losses resulting from the illicit activities of a trader
employed by Allfirst Bank. Among other things, the Written Agreement required Allied Irish to conduct a comprehensive and timely review of its U.S. operations, including
risk management and internal controls, and required Allied
Irish to submit a plan to the three regulatory agencies for
improving the oversight of its U.S. operations. The Board
has carefully considered Allied Irish's record of compliance with the requirements of the Written Agreement and
concludes that its record is consistent with approval of this
proposal.12 The Written Agreement was lifted as of Feb8. 12 U.S.C. § 1842(d)(2)(B)-(D).
9. Maryland's deposit cap is the same as that set forth in section 3(d)(2)(B) of the BHC Act. See Md. Code Ann., Fin. Inst.
§ 5-906(b) (Michie 2001) (30 percent). New York and Pennsylvania
do not have deposit caps applicable to the proposal.
10. N.Y. Banking Law § 142-a(l) (5 years). Maryland, Pennsylvania and West Virginia do not have minimum age requirements
applicable to the proposal. The Board also has taken into account the
record of compliance of the subsidiary depository institutions of
Allied Irish and M&T with applicable state community reinvestment
laws.
11. One commenter expressed concern about the future prospects
of the organizations under the proposal. Allied Irish has acknowledged it would be deemed to control M&T for purposes of the BHC
Act and would be required to serve as a source of strength for M&T
after consummation. See 12 C.F.R. 225.4(a)(1).
12. The Board also has carefully considered a comment requesting
closer scrutiny of the application and notice in light of the foreign




ruary 14, 2003, contingent on consummation of M&T's
acquisition of Allfirst.
Allied Irish's capital levels exceed the minimum levels
that would be required under the Basel Capital Accord, and
its capital levels are considered equivalent to the capital
levels that would be required of a U.S. banking organization. Based on all the facts of record, the Board concludes
that the financial and managerial resources and future
prospects of the organizations involved in the proposal are
consistent with approval.
Section 3 of the BHC Act also provides that the Board
may not approve an application involving a foreign bank
unless it is "subject to comprehensive supervision or regulation on a consolidated basis by the appropriate authorities
in the bank's home country." 13 The home country supervisor of Allied Irish is the Central Bank of Ireland ("CBI"),
which is responsible for the supervision and regulation of
Irish financial institutions.
In approving applications under the BHC Act, the Board
previously has determined that Irish banks, including
Allied Irish, are subject to comprehensive consolidated
supervision by the CBI.14 In this case, the Board finds that
the CBI continues to supervise Allied Irish in substantially
the same manner as it supervised Irish banks at the time of
those previous determinations. Based on this finding and
all the facts of record, the Board concludes that Allied Irish
continues to be subject to comprehensive supervision on a
consolidated basis by its home country supervisor.
In addition, section 3 of the BHC Act requires the Board
to determine that a foreign bank has provided adequate
assurances that it will make available to the Board such
information on its operations and activities and those of its
affiliates that the Board deems appropriate to determine
and enforce compliance with the BHC Act.15 The Board
has reviewed the restrictions on disclosure in relevant
jurisdictions in which Allied Irish operates and has communicated with relevant government authorities concerning
access to information. In addition, Allied Irish previously
exchange trading losses. The commenter asserted that the questions
associated with the management of Allied Irish were of greater
concern because Allied Irish would be able to place four directors on
the board of directors of M&T, thereby giving it more influence over
M&T than it could exercise by virtue of its shareholdings alone. As
noted above, the Board has carefully considered the record of Allied
Irish's management in complying with the terms of the Written
Agreement.
13. 12 U.S.C. § 1842(c)(3)(B). Under Regulation Y, the Board uses
the standards enumerated in Regulation K to determine whether
a foreign bank that has submitted an application under section 3 of
the BHC Act is subject to consolidated home country supervision.
See 12 C.F.R. 225.13(a)(4). Regulation K provides that a foreign bank
will be considered to be subject to comprehensive supervision or
regulation on a consolidated basis if the Board determines that the
bank is supervised and regulated in such a manner that its home
country supervisor receives sufficient information on the worldwide
operations of the bank, including its relationship to affiliates, to assess
the bank's overall financial condition and its compliance with law and
regulations. See 12 C.F.R. 211.24(c)(l)(ii).

Federal Reserve Bulletin • May 2003

has committed to make available to the Board such information on the operations of Allied Irish and its affiliates
that the Board deems necessary to determine and enforce
compliance with the BHC Act and other applicable federal
law. Allied Irish also previously has committed to cooperate with the Board to obtain any waivers or exemptions
that may be necessary to enable Allied Irish and its affiliates to make such information available to the Board.
In light of these commitments, the Board concludes that
Allied Irish has provided adequate assurances of access to
any appropriate information that the Board may request.
Based on these and all the facts of record, the Board
concludes that the supervisory factors it is required to
consider are consistent with approval.

Allied Irish's New York branch controls deposits of
$1.5 billion, representing less than 1 percent of market
deposits. M&T operates the 20th largest depository institution in the market, controlling deposits of approximately
$4.1 billion, representing less than 1 percent of market
deposits. On consummation of the proposal, Allied Irish
would control deposits of $5.6 billion. The market would
remain unconcentrated under the DOJ Merger Guidelines
and the HHI (907 points) would remain unchanged. Based
on all the facts of record, the Board concludes that consummation of the proposal would not result in any significantly
adverse effects on competition or on the concentration of
banking resources in the New York market or in any other
relevant banking market.

Competitive Considerations

Convenience and Needs Considerations

As part of the Board's review under section 3 of the BHC
Act, the Board has considered carefully the competitive
effects of the proposal in light of all the facts of record. As
discussed in detail in the M&T Order, the Board concluded
that the combination of M&T and Allfirst would not likely
result in any significantly adverse effects on competition or
on the concentration of banking resources in any of the
banking markets in which M&T or Allfirst operate banks.
Based on all the facts of record, the Board concludes that
competitive considerations related to the M&T and Allfirst
aspects of this proposal are consistent with approval for the
reasons discussed in the M&T Order and incorporated
herein.
Allied Irish operates a branch and M&T operates a bank
in the Metropolitan NY-NJ-PA-CT banking market
("New York market"). 16 The Board has reviewed the
competitive effects of the proposal in this banking market
in light of all the facts of record, including the number of
competitors that would remain in the market, the relative
share of total deposits in depository institutions in the
market ("market deposits")17 controlled by Allied Irish
and M&T, the concentration level of market deposits and
the increase in this level as measured by the HerfindahlHirschman Index ("HHI") under the Department of Justice
Merger Guidelines ("DOJ Merger Guidelines"), and other
characteristics of the market.18

In acting on proposals under section 3 of the BHC Act, the
Board is required to consider the effect of the proposal on
the convenience and needs of the communities to be
served.19 The Board has carefully reviewed the effect of
the proposal on convenience and needs considerations in
light of all the facts of record, including comments received
on the proposal and the records of performance of the
relevant depository institutions under the Community Reinvestment Act ("CRA"). 20 In the M&T Order, the Board
reviewed the records of CRA performance of the relevant
insured depository institutions and considered other information relating to the convenience and needs factor. Based
on all the facts of record, the Board concludes that convenience and needs considerations are consistent with
approval for the reasons discussed in the M&T Order and
incorporated herein.

16. The New York market is defined as New York City; Dutchess,
Nassau, Orange, Putnam, Rockland, Suffolk, Sullivan, Ulster, and
Westchester Counties in New York; Bergen, Essex, Hudson, Hunterdon, Middlesex, Monmouth, Morris, Ocean, Passaic, Somerset, Sussex, Union, Warren, and portions of Mercer Counties in New Jersey;
Pike County in Pennsylvania; and Fairfield and portions of Litchfield
and New Haven Counties in Connecticut.
17. Market share data are as of June 30, 2002, and are based on
calculations in which the deposits of thrift institutions are included at
50 percent. See First Hawaiian, Inc., 77 Federal Reserve Bulletin 52

Nonbanking Activities
Allied Irish also has filed notice under section 4(c)(8) and
(j) of the BHC Act to acquire nonbanking subsidiaries of
M&T. The Board has determined by regulation that the
types of activities for which notice has been provided are
closely related to banking for purposes of section 4(c)(8) of
the BHC Act and, therefore, permissible for bank holding
companies.21
To approve this notice, the Board must determine that
the proposed activities "can reasonably be expected to
produce benefits to the public . . . that outweigh possible
adverse effects, such as undue concentration of resources,
decreased or unfair competition, conflicts of interests, or
unsound banking practices." 22
As part of its evaluation of the public interest factors, the
Board considers the financial condition and managerial
resources of the notificant and its subsidiaries, including

(1991).
18. Under the DOJ Merger Guidelines, 49 Federal Register 26,823
(1984), a market is considered unconcentrated if the post merger HHI
is under 1000. The Department of Justice has informed the Board that
a bank merger or acquisition generally will not be challenged (in the
absence of other factors indicating anticompetitive effects) unless the
post merger HHI is at least 1800 and the merger increases the HHI by
more than 200 points. The Department of Justice has stated that the




higher than normal HHI thresholds for screening bank mergers for
anticompetitive effects implicitly recognize the competitive effects of
limited-purpose lenders and other nondepository financial institutions.

the companies to be acquired, and the effect of the proposed transaction on those resources. For the reasons noted
above, and based on all the facts of record, the Board has
concluded that financial and managerial considerations are
consistent with approval of the proposal.
The Board also has considered the competitive effects of
the proposed transaction under section 4 of the BHC Act.
Allied Irish and M&T compete in providing credit-related
insurance and financial and investment advisory services.
The markets for these nonbanking activities are regional,
national, or international in scope and are unconcentrated.
The record in this case also indicates that there are numerous providers of these services. Based on all the facts of
record, the Board concludes that consummation of the
proposal would have a de minimus effect on competition
for the relevant nonbanking activities.
The Board concludes that the conduct of the proposed
nonbanking activity within the framework of Regulation Y
and Board precedent is not likely to result in adverse
effects, such as undue concentration of resources, conflicts
of interests, or unsound banking practices, that would
outweigh the public benefits of the proposal, such as
increased customer convenience and gains in efficiency.
Accordingly, based on all the facts of record, the Board has
determined that the balance of public interest factors that
the Board must consider under the standard in section 4(j)
of the BHC Act is consistent with approval of Allied
Irish's notice.
Conclusion
Based on the foregoing, and in light of all facts of record,
the Board has determined that the applications and notice
should be, and hereby are, approved. In reaching its conclusion, the Board has considered all the facts of record in
light of the factors it is required to consider under the BHC
Act and the IB A. The Board's approval is specifically
conditioned on compliance by Allied Irish with all the
commitments and representations made or relied on in
connection with the application and notice and with the
conditions stated or referred to in this order. The Board's
determination also is conditioned specifically on the
Board's receiving access to information on the operations
or activities of Allied Irish and any of its affiliates that the
Board determines to be appropriate to assess and enforce
compliance by Allied Irish and its affiliates with applicable
federal statutes. The Board's determination on the nonbanking activities also is subject to all the terms and
conditions set forth in Regulation Y, including those in
sections 225.7 and 225.25(c) (12 C.F.R. 225.7 and
225.25(c)), and to the Board's authority to require such
modification or termination of the activities of a bank
holding company or any of its subsidiaries as the Board
finds necessary to ensure compliance with, and to prevent
evasion of, the provisions of the BHC Act and the Board's
regulations and orders thereunder. For purposes of this
action, the commitments and conditions relied on by the
Board in reaching its decision are deemed to be conditions



211

imposed in writing in connection with its findings and
decision and, as such, may be enforced in proceedings
under applicable law.
The acquisition of up to 25 percent of M&T may not be
consummated before the fifteenth calendar day after the
effective date of this order, or later than three months after
the effective date of this order, unless such period is
extended for good cause by the Board or the Federal
Reserve Bank of Richmond, acting pursuant to delegated
authority.
By order of the Board of Governors, effective March 11,
2003.

SouthTrust Corporation
SouthTrust of Alabama, Inc.
SouthTrust Bank
All in Birmingham, Alabama
Order Approving the Acquisition of Bank Holding
Companies, Merger of Banks, and Establishment of
Branches
SouthTrust Corporation ("SouthTrust") and its wholly
owned subsidiary, SouthTrust of Alabama, Inc. ("SouthTrust Alabama"), both bank holding companies subject to
the provisions of the Bank Holding Company Act ("BHC
Act"), have requested the Board's approval under section 3 of the BHC Act (12 U.S.C. §1842) to acquire
Founders Bancshares ("Founders") and its wholly owned
subsidiaries, Skillman Bancshares ("Skillman") and
Founders National Bank ("Founders Bank"), all in Dallas,
Texas. SouthTrust's subsidiary bank, SouthTrust Bank
("SouthTrust Bank"), a state member bank in Birmingham, has requested the Board's approval under section 18(c) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (12 U.S.C.
§ 1828(c)) ("Bank Merger Act") to merge with Founders
Bank, with SouthTrust Bank as the surviving entity.1 In
addition, SouthTrust Bank proposes to retain and operate
branches at the main and branch offices of Founders Bank.2
Notice of the proposal, affording interested persons an
opportunity to comment, has been published in accordance
with the relevant statutes and the Board's Rules of Procedure (12 C.F.R. 262.3(b)) in the Federal Register

1. Under the proposal, SouthTrust Alabama would acquire all the
issued and outstanding stock of Founders. Simultaneously with the
acquisition of Founder's stock, Founders and Skillman would merge
with and into SouthTrust Alabama and Founders Bank would merge
with and into SouthTrust Bank.
2. See 12 U.S.C. §§321 & 1831u. The Founders Bank offices to be
acquired by SouthTrust Bank are at 9696 Skillman Street and 10600
Forest Lane, both in Dallas.

Federal Reserve Bulletin • May 2003

(68 Federal Register 3,029 (2003)) and locally. As required
by the BHC Act and the Bank Merger Act, reports on the
competitive effects of the merger were requested from
the U.S. Attorney General and the relevant banking agencies. The time for filing comments has expired, and the
Board has considered the applications and all comments
received in light of the factors set forth in section 3 of the
BHC Act, the Bank Merger Act, and the statutory provisions that govern the retention and operation of interstate
branches.
SouthTrust, with total assets of $50.8 billion, is the
largest banking organization in Alabama. SouthTrust operates depository institutions in Alabama, Florida, Georgia,
Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee,
and Texas. SouthTrust Bank is the 19th largest depository
institution in Texas, controlling deposits of approximately
$1.8 billion, representing less than 1 percent of total deposits of insured depository institutions in the state ("state
deposits").3 Founders Bank is the 230th largest depository
institution in Texas, controlling deposits of $102.5 million,
representing less than 1 percent of state deposits. On consummation of the proposal, SouthTrust Bank would
become the 18th largest depository institution in Texas,
controlling deposits of approximately $1.9 billion, representing less than 1 percent of state deposits.

Interstate Analysis
Section 3(d) of the BHC Act allows the Board to approve
an application by a bank holding company to acquire
control of a bank located in a state other than the home
state of the bank holding company if certain conditions
are met. For purposes of the BHC Act, the home state
of SouthTrust is Alabama, and SouthTrust proposes to
acquire a bank in Texas.4 Based on a review of all the facts
of record, including a review of relevant state statutes, the
Board finds that all conditions for an interstate acquisition
enumerated in section 3(d) are met in this case.5 In light of
all the facts of record, the Board is permitted to approve
the proposal under section 3(d) of the BHC Act.

3. Asset data are as of December 31, 2002. Deposit and state
ranking data are as of June 30, 2002, and are adjusted to reflect
mergers and acquisitions completed through December 6, 2002. In
this context, depository institutions include commercial banks, savings banks, and savings associations.
4. See 12 U.S.C. § 1841(o)(4)(C).
5. 12 U.S.C. § 1842(d)(1)(A) & (B), 1842(d)(2)(A) & (B). SouthTrust is well capitalized and well managed, as defined by applicable
law. Founders Bank has been in existence and operated for the
minimum period of time required by Texas law. On consummation of
the proposal, SouthTrust would control less than 10 percent of the
total amount of deposits of insured depository institutions in the
United States. SouthTrust also would control less than 20 percent of
the total deposits of insured depository institutions in Texas, the
maximum percentage of total deposits in the state that is permitted
under state law to be controlled by a bank holding company after an
interstate acquisition. See Tx. Fin. Code Ann. §202.002. All other
requirements under section 3(d) of the BHC Act also would be met on
consummation of the proposal.




Financial and Managerial Considerations
The BHC Act and the Bank Merger Act require the Board
to consider the financial and managerial resources and
future prospects of the companies and banks involved in a
proposal and certain other supervisory factors under the
BHC Act. In assessing the financial and managerial
strength of SouthTrust and its subsidiaries, the Board has
reviewed information provided by SouthTrust, confidential
supervisory and examination information, and publicly
reported and other financial information. Based on all the
facts of record, the Board concludes that the financial and
managerial resources and future prospects of the organizations involved in the proposal are consistent with approval,
as are other supervisory factors under the BHC Act.
Competitive Considerations
Section 3 of the BHC Act and the Bank Merger Act
prohibit the Board from approving a proposal that would
result in a monopoly or would be in furtherance of an
attempt to monopolize the business of banking. The BHC
Act and the Bank Merger Act also prohibit the Board from
approving a proposed bank acquisition that would substantially lessen competition in any relevant banking market
unless the anticompetitive effects of the proposal are
clearly outweighed in the public interest by the probable
effect of the proposal in meeting the convenience and
needs of the community to be served.6
SouthTrust Bank and Founders Bank compete directly in
the Dallas, Texas, banking market ("Dallas banking market"). 7 SouthTrust Bank is the 21st largest depository
institution in the market, controlling less than 1 percent of
total deposits in depository institutions in the market
("market deposits").8 Founders Bank is the 41st largest
depository institution in the market, also controlling less
than 1 percent of market deposits. On consummation of the
proposal, SouthTrust Bank would become the 16th largest
depository institution in the market, controlling less than
1 percent of market deposits.
The Board has reviewed the competitive effects of the
proposal in the Dallas banking market in light of all the
facts of record, including the number of competitors that
would remain in the market, the relative share of market
deposits controlled by SouthTrust Bank and Founders
Bank, the concentration level of market deposits and the
increase in this level as measured by the HerfindahlHirschman Index ("HHI") under the Department of Justice

Counties, Denton and Lewisville in Denton County, McKinney and
Piano in Collin County, Forney and Terrell in Kaufman County,
Midlothian, Waxahachie and Ferris in Ellis County, and Grapevine
and Arlington in Tarrant County, all in Texas.
8. Market share data are as of June 30, 2002, and are based on

Merger Guidelines ("DOJ Guidelines"), and other characteristics of the market.9
The Department of Justice has reviewed the proposal
and advised the Board that consummation would not likely
have a significantly adverse effect on competition in any
relevant market. In addition, no federal banking agency has
indicated that the proposal raises competitive issues.
Based on all the facts of record, the Board concludes that
consummation of the proposal would not result in any
significantly adverse effects on competition or on the concentration of banking resources in the Dallas banking market or in any other relevant banking market.
Convenience and Needs Considerations
In acting on this proposal, the Board also must consider the
convenience and needs of the communities to be served
and take into account the records of performance of the
relevant insured depository institutions under the Community Reinvestment Act (12 U.S.C. §2901 et seq.) ("CRA").
The CRA requires the federal supervisory agencies to
encourage insured depository institutions to help meet the
credit needs of local communities in which they operate,
consistent with safe and sound operation. The CRA
requires the appropriate federal financial supervisory
agency to take into account an insured depository institution's record of meeting the credit needs of its entire
community, including low- and moderate-income ("LMI")
neighborhoods, in evaluating bank expansion proposals.
The Board has considered carefully the effects of the
proposal on the convenience and needs of the communities
to be served in light of all the facts of record, including
confidential supervisory information, comments received
on the proposal, information on the performance under
the CRA of the relevant insured depository institutions,
publicly available data, and information submitted by
SouthTrust.
The Board received comments from five community
organizations opposing the proposal and expressing concerns about the record of SouthTrust Bank in meeting the
convenience and needs of the communities it serves. Four
of the commenters criticized SouthTrust Bank's record of
lending to LMI and minority borrowers and borrowers in
LMI census tracts in several of the bank's assessment areas
in Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi, North Carolina, and
South Carolina.10 These commenters also criticized SouthTrust Bank's high denial rates of mortgage applications by

the HHI for the Dallas banking market would not increase and would
remain moderately concentrated at 1,262 points. The Department of
Justice has informed the Board that a bank merger or acquisition
generally will not be challenged (in the absence of other factors
indicating anticompetitive effects) unless the post-merger HHI is at
least 1800 and the merger increases the HHI by more than 200 points.
10. The commenters alleged, among other things, that SouthTrust
Bank and its wholly owned subsidiary, SouthTrust Mortgage Corporation ("SouthTrust Mortgage"), engaged in disparate treatment of
minority and nonminority individuals in mortgage lending by citing
data submitted under the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act, 12 U.S.C.
§2801 etseq. ("HMDA").




213

African Americans in North Carolina, Alabama, Mississippi, and Georgia and stated that the denial rates suggested that SouthTrust Bank did not offer, or use effectively, flexible mortgage lending products. In addition, all
five commenters criticized SouthTrust Bank's record of
providing community development investments and services in one or more of the bank's assessment areas.11
A. CRA Performance

Evaluations

As provided in the CRA, the Board has evaluated the
convenience and needs factor in light of examinations of
the CRA performance records of the relevant depository
institutions by the appropriate federal supervisors. An institution's most recent CRA performance evaluation is a
particularly important consideration in the applications process because it represents a detailed, on-site evaluation of
the institution's overall record of performance under the
CRA by its appropriate federal supervisor.12
SouthTrust Bank received a "satisfactory" CRA rating
at its most recent CRA performance evaluation, as of
April 2, 2001, from the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta.
Founders Bank also received a "satisfactory" CRA rating
at its most recent CRA performance evaluation, as of
December 12, 1997, from the Office of the Comptroller of
the Currency. SouthTrust has indicated that it intends to
implement the CRA-related programs and activities and
to offer the CRA-related products of SouthTrust Bank at
the offices of Founders Bank on consummation of the
proposal.
B. SouthTrust Bank's CRA Performance

Record

1. Lending Test. Examiners rated SouthTrust Bank overall "high satisfactory" under the lending test at its most
recent CRA performance examination for the review period
January 1, 1999, through December 31, 2000.13 Examiners
concluded that the bank's lending reflected a good responsiveness to the credit needs of its assessment areas. They
indicated that during the review period, SouthTrust Bank
bought or originated 58,175 HMDA loans, totaling
$6.1 billion, in its assessment areas. Moreover, examiners
commended SouthTrust Bank for originating more than
90 percent of its small business, HMDA, and small farm
loans in its assessment areas. Examiners also noted that
11. Commenters requested that SouthTrust Bank develop relationships with community development credit unions and other community organizations and enter into commitments with specific community organizations/Neither the CRA nor the federal banking agencies'
CRA regulations require depository institutions to make pledges or
enter into agreements with any organization. Instead, the Board
focuses on the existing record of an applicant and the programs that
the applicant has in place to meet the credit needs of the communities
it serves. See Fifth Third Bancorp, 80 Federal Reserve Bulletin 838
(1994).
12. See Interagency Questions and Answers Regarding Community
Reinvestment, 66 Federal Register 36,620 and 36,639 (2001).
13. Examiners took into account the home mortgage originations
and purchases of SouthTrust Bank and SouthTrust Mortgage in evaluating the performance of SouthTrust Bank.

214

Federal Reserve Bulletin • May 2003

SouthTrust Bank's lending data reflected a good distribution of lending in geographies of different income levels
and a good distribution of lending to borrowers of different
income levels and businesses of different sizes.
As noted above, several commenters asserted that
SouthTrust Bank's rate of denial for African-American
applicants in some areas suggested that the bank did not
offer, or use effectively, flexible lending products. Examiners reported that SouthTrust Bank used flexible lending
practices in serving the credit needs of its assessment areas,
which included a variety of affordable housing programs.
In addition, since the examination, SouthTrust represented
that SouthTrust Bank and SouthTrust Mortgage have made
2,821 loans totaling more than $258 million through affordable loan programs. SouthTrust also represented that it
continues to offer a variety of affordable housing programs,
including a no-down-payment program that offers a fixed
rate mortgage with no down payment and no closing costs.
Moreover, SouthTrust offers a first-time homebuyer program designed for LMI borrowers to obtain financing for a
home in circumstances where a traditional loan program
would not be available to them because of loan-to-value or
down-payment requirements.
Examiners found that SouthTrust Bank made a relatively high amount of community development loans, totaling $174.2 million. These loans funded the construction,
renovation, and purchase of affordable single and multifamily housing and industrial development in such areas
as Birmingham ($1.9 million), Tampa, Florida ($15.7 million), Atlanta, Georgia ($3.8 million), Biloxi, Mississippi
($404,000), Raleigh, North Carolina ($7.7 million),
Charleston, South Carolina ($200,000), Memphis, Tennessee ($2.8 million), and Beaumont, Texas ($1.3 million).
SouthTrust reported that during 2001 and 2002, the bank
made more than 600 community development loans that
totaled more than $250 million throughout its assessment
areas. These loans exceeded the amounts indicated in the
following states: Alabama ($38 million), Georgia ($22 million), Mississippi ($36 million), North Carolina ($14 million), and South Carolina ($8 million).
Commenters cited criticisms of SouthTrust Bank's
lending performance and ratings assigned to the bank in
several assessments areas in the bank's overall assessment
area.14 Commenters noted that the bank received "low
satisfactory" ratings under the lending test for Mississippi
and North Carolina. In addition, commenters noted that
examiners characterized SouthTrust Bank's geographic
distribution of mortgage loans and small business loans in
North Carolina as poor. One commenter also noted that the
bank's lending to borrowers of different income levels in
Mississippi was considered by examiners to be poor. Several commenters pointed out examiner criticisms of SouthTrust Bank's community development lending in certain

14. In addition to the bankwide ratings, examiners also assigned
overall ratings and separate ratings under the lending, investment and
service tests for SouthTrust Bank's performance in six states, five
multistate Metropolitan Statistical Areas ("MSAs"), and six other
MS As that are part of the bank's assessment areas.




geographic areas in Alabama, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee.
Although examiners criticized the bank's lending and
assigned ratings of "low satisfactory" in some assessment
areas, examiners also commended the bank's lending performance in other areas and assigned the bank "high
satisfactory" ratings under the lending test in those areas.
For example, the bank received "high satisfactory" ratings
under the lending test statewide in Alabama, Florida, and
Texas. After considering SouthTrust Bank's entire record
in all the assessment areas reviewed, examiners assigned a
"high satisfactory" rating under the lending test for the
bank as a whole.
Similarly, in considering the convenience and needs
factor under the BHC Act and the Bank Merger Act, the
Board has considered the overall record of lending of
SouthTrust Bank in all the markets in which it participates.
The Board has reviewed carefully the examiners' evaluation of the bank's lending performance in the assessment
areas reviewed and the conclusions on the bank's overall
record of lending in the performance evaluation. In addition, the Board has considered supervisory information,
information provided by SouthTrust, and publicly available information on the bank's record of lending since the
examination in certain assessment areas, including those
areas highlighted by the commenters.
2. Investment Test. Examiners rated SouthTrust Bank
"high satisfactory" for its record of responding to the
community development needs of its overall assessment
area through investments and stated that the bank made
significant use of community development investments to
support community development initiatives. Examiners
indicated that the bank made a significant level of qualified
community development investments and grants, which
totaled more than $146 million during the assessment
period.15 Examiners also noted that SouthTrust Bank's
investment portfolio totaled approximately $9.9 billion
as of December 31, 2000. Overall, examiners found that
SouthTrust Bank showed good responsiveness to credit
and community development needs.
Examiners indicated that SouthTrust Bank exhibited
an excellent responsiveness to credit and community development needs in Alabama through its investment activities
and reported that the bank invested approximately $31 million in community development financial institution investments ("CDFI investments"), low-income housing tax
credits, and municipal bonds.16 In Georgia, SouthTrust
Bank invested approximately $14 million in municipal
bonds and Federal National Mortgage Association wraps
15. SouthTrust represented that since its most recent performance
evaluation, it has increased the amount of its qualified investments for
community development purposes by an additional $90 million.
16. CDFI investments are investments by depository institutions in
private-sector financial intermediaries, including credit unions, that
have community development as their primary purpose. One commenter criticized the bank's commitment to community development
in Alabama outside the Birmingham MSA. The Board notes that
SouthTrust Bank received an "outstanding" rating under the investment test in Alabama, which included a review of the bank's assessment areas outside Birmingham.

("FNMA wraps").17 Examiners also commended the bank
for making an in-kind donation of a vacant branch in
Georgia to a local business that conducts job training,
credit counseling, and home ownership seminars to LMI
individuals. Examiners reported that during the review
period, SouthTrust Bank made qualifying investments of
$14.4 million in North Carolina, more than $3.5 million in
Mississippi, and $1.7 million in Tennessee.18
SouthTrust represented that since the most recent
examination, SouthTrust Bank has undertaken other measures to provide economic and community support to
projects and programs that assist LMI and minority populations. SouthTrust stated that the bank provided a branch
location for a community development credit union and
conducted three faith-based empowerment conferences in
Alabama. In addition, SouthTrust Bank hired a technical
assistance manager to provide investment and technical
assistance to community development credit unions, community development corporations, and nonprofit organizations in Alabama and North Carolina. SouthTrust also
stated that SouthTrust Bank received approval from the
Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta for funding from the
Economic Development and Growth Enhancement Program to support an organization in Augusta, Georgia, that
will construct an office building in a low-income census
tract. In addition, SouthTrust represented that the bank
obtained funding from the same Federal Home Loan Bank
to support initiatives of six local housing organizations that
serve LMI persons and their communities, including organizations in North Carolina.
3. Service Test. Examiners rated SouthTrust Bank an
overall "low satisfactory" in its most recent performance
evaluation for its provision of community development and
retail banking services.19 Examiners found SouthTrust
Bank's delivery systems and branch locations reasonably
accessible, and that its hours of operation were convenient
to most portions of its overall assessment area. Examiners
noted that 18 percent of the bank's total branches were in
LMI areas, which was highly representative of the number
of families and businesses in LMI census tracts in SouthTrust Bank's assessment areas. In addition, examiners
found that SouthTrust Bank provided an adequate level of

investment-grade bond issuances used to aid in CRA initiatives, such
as affordable housing projects.
18. Commenters underscored that examiners gave SouthTrust Bank
"low satisfactory" ratings under the investment test for Mississippi
and the Charlotte MSA, and "needs to improve" ratings in the
Augusta, Georgia, and Chattanooga, Tennessee, MSAs. However,
examiners gave the bank "high satisfactory" ratings under the investment test in Georgia, North Carolina, and Tennessee. In addition,
SouthTrust represented that since the last performance evaluation, it
made three investments in the Augusta MSA, totaling $2.4 million,
and one in the Chattanooga MSA, totaling more than $911,000.
SouthTrust also represented that since the performance evaluation,
SouthTrust Bank has made community development investments of
$44 million in Georgia, $9.7 million in Tennessee, $12 million in
Mississippi, and $18 million in North Carolina.
19. Commenters noted that SouthTrust Bank was rated "low satisfactory" on the service test in North Carolina and the Chattanooga
MSA.

community development services and stated that personnel
used their financial expertise to provide financial services
to benefit residents in the bank's assessment areas. Examiners also noted that the services provided were highly
responsive to affordable housing needs in SouthTrust
Bank's assessment areas.
C. HMD A
The Board also has carefully considered SouthTrust's lending record in light of public comments received by the
Board on HMDA data reported by SouthTrust.20 In considering this proposal, the Board has reviewed publicly available HMDA data for 2000 and 2001 from SouthTrust
Bank, SouthTrust Mortgage, and lenders that operate in
SouthTrust Bank's assessment areas, and preliminary
HMDA data from 2002 from SouthTrust Bank and SouthTrust Mortgage.21 Moreover, the Board has reviewed
information about the loan underwriting processes of
SouthTrust Bank and SouthTrust Mortgage, including
management and audit functions governing loan underwriting, the credit review processes, and fair lending training
provided to personnel.
The HMDA data generally indicate disparities in the rate
SouthTrust denies applications by African Americans compared with those by nonminority applicants in many of the
markets reviewed. In addition, the data generally indicate
that the number and dollar volume of HMDA-reportable
loan originations by SouthTrust to African-American and
LMI borrowers and borrowers in LMI census tracts, as a
percentage of its total HMDA-reportable lending in 2000
and 2001, were below the percentage of the HMDAreporting lenders in the aggregate in many of the areas
reviewed.
The Board is concerned when the record of an institution
indicates disparities in lending and believes that all banks
are obligated to ensure that their lending practices are
based on criteria that ensure not only safe and sound
lending but also equal access to credit by creditworthy
applicants regardless of their race, gender, or national
origin. The Board recognizes, however, that HMDA data
alone provide an incomplete measure of an institution's
lending in its community because these data cover only a
few categories of housing-related lending. HMDA data,
moreover, provide only limited information about the covered loans.22 HMDA data, therefore, have limitations that
20. Based on 2001 HMDA data, commenters criticized SouthTrust's record of home mortgage lending to African Americans, LMI
borrowers, or borrowers in LMI census tracts in certain of the bank's
assessment areas in Alabama, North Carolina, and South Carolina.
Commenters also expressed concern about the bank's high rate of
denials for African-American applicants in certain assessment areas in
Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi, North Carolina, and South Carolina.
21. As a part of its review, the Board has evaluated the HMDA
data for SouthTrust Bank and SouthTrust Mortgage, separately and
combined, in certain markets.
22. The data do not, for example, account for the possibility that an
institution's outreach efforts may attract a larger proportion of marginally qualified applicants than other institutions attract and do not
provide a basis for independent assessment of whether an applicant

216

Federal Reserve Bulletin • May 2003

make them an inadequate basis, absent other information,
for concluding that an institution has not assisted adequately in meeting its community's credit needs or has
engaged in illegal lending discrimination.
Because of the limitations of HMDA data, the Board has
considered these data carefully in light of other information, including confidential supervisory information,
examination reports that provide on-site evaluation of the
compliance with fair lending laws by SouthTrust Bank and
SouthTrust Mortgage, and the overall lending and community development activities of SouthTrust. At the last
examination, examiners found no violations of the substantive provisions of fair lending and consumer protection
laws at SouthTrust Bank or SouthTrust Mortgage and no
evidence of prohibited discrimination or other illegal credit
practices.
In addition, the SouthTrust HMDA data generally indicate that the volume of home mortgage originations
increased significantly from 2000 to 2001, and the percentage increases in originations in the markets reviewed were
comparable with those of the aggregate of lenders. The
volume of HMDA loans to African Americans, LMI borrowers, and borrowers in LMI census tracts also increased
between 2000 and 2001 in a number of the markets
reviewed. Moreover, the 2001 HMDA data indicate that
the ratio of denial rates of applications from African
Americans compared with denial rates for nonminorities
was comparable with this ratio for the aggregate of lenders
in many of the markets reviewed.
As noted above, SouthTrust has in place a number of
programs designed to help meet the credit needs of its
communities, and examiners found that SouthTrust Bank
has engaged in substantial lending throughout its assessment areas. In addition, SouthTrust has represented that it
has undertaken several initiatives since its most recent
performance evaluation and implemented additional programs in an effort to improve its lending to minority and
LMI individuals and in LMI areas.

The record indicates that SouthTrust has sound CRA
performance overall in a number of areas. The record also
indicates that there are opportunities for improvement in
SouthTrust Bank's overall satisfactory CRA record, and
in particular, its HMDA lending record, and the Board
encourages SouthTrust to pursue those opportunities.
Based on all the facts of record, and for the reasons
discussed above, the Board concludes that considerations
relating to the convenience and needs of the communities
to be served, including the CRA performance records of
the institutions involved in the proposal, are consistent
with approval of the proposal.23

D. Conclusion on Convenience and Needs
Considerations

Voting for this action: Chairman Greenspan, Vice Chairman Ferguson, and Governors Gramlich, Bies, Olson, Bernanke, and Kohn.

In reviewing the effect of the proposal on the convenience
and needs of the communities to be served, the Board has
considered carefully all the facts of record, including the
comments received and the responses to the comments,
evaluations of the performance of SouthTrust Bank and
Founders Bank under the CRA, the relevant HMDA data
for SouthTrust Bank and SouthTrust Mortgage, other information provided by SouthTrust, and confidential supervisory information. The Board also has reviewed information
submitted by SouthTrust on its CRA performance and
activities to help ensure compliance with fair lending laws
since the last performance evaluation.
who was denied credit was, in fact, creditworthy. Credit history
problems and excessive debt levels relative to income (reasons most
frequently cited for a credit denial) are not available from HMDA
data.




Conclusion
Based on the foregoing and all facts of record, the Board
has determined that the applications should be, and hereby
are, approved. In reaching its conclusion, the Board has
considered all the facts of record in light of the factors that
it is required to consider under the BHC Act, the Bank
Merger Act, and the statutory provisions that govern the
retention and operation of interstate branches.
The Board's approval is specifically conditioned on
compliance by SouthTrust and SouthTrust Bank with all
the commitments and representations made in connection
with the applications. These commitments, representations,
and conditions are deemed to be conditions imposed in
writing by the Board in connection with its findings and
decisions and, as such, may be enforced in proceedings
under applicable law.
The proposed transactions may not be consummated
before the fifteenth calendar day after the effective date of
this order, or later than three months after the effective date
of this order, unless such period is extended for good cause
by the Board or the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta,
acting pursuant to delegated authority.
By order of the Board of Governors, effective March 19,

23. Several commenters suggested that SouthTrust provided the
Board with insufficient information when describing how it meets the
convenience and needs of the communities it serves, and requested
that SouthTrust provide the Board with specific information about its
lending operations, level and types of community development loans
and investments, and policies, practices, and initiatives for affordable
loan products. The Board has accumulated a significant record in this
case, including examination reports on the CRA and compliance
records of SouthTrust, comments received from the public, information from SouthTrust in the application and in responses to requests
for additional information from the Board, and responses by SouthTrust to the commenters. The Board has carefully evaluated the effect
of the proposal on the convenience and needs of the communities to
be served in light of all the information in the record and concludes
that the record in this case is sufficient to warrant consideration of and
action on the proposal at this time.

Legal Developments

The Wakashio Bank, Limited
Tokyo, Japan
Order Approving the Formation of a Bank Holding
Company
The Wakashio Bank, Limited, Tokyo, Japan ("Wakashio"),
has requested the Board's approval under section 3 of the
Bank Holding Company Act ("BHC Act") (12 U.S.C.
§ 1842) to become a bank holding company by merging
with its affiliate, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation,
also in Tokyo ("SMBC"), and by acquiring Manufacturers
Bank, Los Angeles, California ("Bank"). 1 Wakashio does
not propose to expand the banking or nonbanking operations of SMBC in the United States or to acquire or control
any additional U.S. banks.2
Notice of the proposal, affording interested persons an
opportunity to submit comments, has been published
(68 Federal Register 5640 (2003)). The time for filing
comments has expired, and the Board has considered the
proposal and all comments received in light of the factors
set forth in section 3 of the BHC Act.
SMBC, with total consolidated assets equivalent to
$857.1 billion, ranks fourth among the world's commercial
banks by assets.3 Bank, SMBC's subsidiary depository
institution, has total consolidated assets of $1.1 billion and
controls deposits of $825.8 million, representing less than
1 percent of total deposits of insured depository institutions
in California.4 Wakashio has total assets of $4 billion and
controls no U.S. depository institutions.5
Factors Reviewed by the Board
The BHC Act sets forth the factors that the Board must
consider when reviewing the formation of a bank holding
company or the acquisition of a bank.6 These factors are
the competitive effects of the proposal in the relevant
geographic markets; the financial and managerial resources
and future prospects of the companies and banks involved;
the convenience and needs of the community to be served,

217

including the records of performance of the relevant
insured depository institutions under the Community Reinvestment Act ("CRA"); 7 the availability of information
needed to determine and enforce compliance with the BHC
Act and other applicable federal banking laws; and, in the
case of applications involving a foreign bank, whether
the bank is subject to comprehensive supervision and
regulation on a consolidated basis by its home country
supervisor.8
The Board has considered these factors in light of a
record that includes information provided by Wakashio,
SMFG, and SMBC; confidential supervisory and examination information from various federal agencies; and publicly reported financial and other information. The Board
also has considered information from the Financial Services Agency of Japan ("FSA"), the primary home country
supervisor of SMBC. The Board notes that the FSA has
issued a preliminary approval of the proposed restructuring. In addition, the Board has considered all comments
received on the proposal.
Competitive Considerations
Section 3 of the BHC Act prohibits the Board from approving a proposal that would result in a monopoly. The BHC
Act also prohibits the Board from approving a proposed
bank acquisition that would substantially lessen competition in any relevant banking market unless the anticompetitive effects of the proposal are clearly outweighed in the
public interest by the probable effect of the proposal in
meeting the convenience and needs of the community to be
served.9 This proposal represents an internal reorganization
of existing operations and would not result in either an
expansion of operations or an acquisition of an additional
bank in the United States. Based on all the facts of record,
the Board concludes that consummation of the proposal
would not have a significantly adverse effect on competition or on the concentration of banking resources in any
relevant banking market.
Financial and Managerial Considerations

1. The merger of Wakashio and SMBC is scheduled to take place
on March 17, 2003. Wakashio would be the surviving entity and
would be renamed Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation ("New
SMBC"). Before the merger, Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, Inc.,
also in Tokyo ("SMFG") and the parent holding company of
Wakashio and SMBC, plans to transfer ownership of Bank from
SMBC to SMFG. SMFG has committed to promptly transfer Bank to
New SMBC in accordance with required approvals and applicable
waiting periods.
2. The Board has separately approved Wakashio's application to
acquire the U.S. branches of SMBC. See The Wakashio Bank, Limited
(Order dated March 14, 2003).
3. Asset and ranking data are as of September 30, 2002.
4. Asset, deposit, and state ranking data are as of June 30, 2002. In
this context, depository institutions include commercial banks, savings associations, and savings banks.
5. Asset data are as of September 30, 2002.
6. A commenter has questioned the permissibility of a recently
announced investment by The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., New York,
New York, in SMFG. The Board has previously reviewed this transaction and has not found that the proposal would cause Goldman to
control SMFG for purposes of the BHC Act.




The Board has carefully considered the financial and managerial resources and future prospects of Wakashio, SMBC,
and Bank and the effect the proposed transaction would
have on such resources in light of all the facts of record,
which include the examination records of Bank. The Board
has also consulted with the FSA. The transaction confers
some accounting and regulatory benefits in Japan under
standards applied by the FSA.
No expansion or restructuring of existing U.S. operations
would result from the proposed reorganization. In addition,
the proposal would not materially affect the management
of SMBC's operations, including its subsidiary insured
depository institution, in the United States. The corporate

9. 12 U.S.C. § 1842(c)(1).

218

Federal Reserve Bulletin • May 2003

reorganization would be effected through the exchange of
shares. No debt would be issued by Wakashio, SMBC, or
any of its subsidiaries as part of the transactions that would
effect the reorganization. This transaction results in no
substantive change in the capital of SMBC.
In this light, and based on all the facts of record, the
Board concludes that the financial and managerial
resources and future prospects of Wakashio, SMBC, and
Bank are consistent with approval.
Convenience and Needs Factor
The Board has carefully considered the effects of the
proposal on the convenience and needs of the communities
to be served in light of all the facts of record, including a
comment received on the proposal, information on the
performance under the CRA of the relevant subsidiary
insured depository institution received from the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"), publicly available data, and information submitted by Wakashio. As
noted above, the U.S. operations of SMBC and Bank would
remain unaffected by the proposed reorganization.
The Board has long held that consideration of the convenience and needs factor includes a review of the records
of the relevant depository institutions under the CRA. As
provided in the CRA, the Board evaluates an institution's
record of performance in light of examinations by the
appropriate federal supervisor. An institution's most recent
CRA performance evaluation is a particularly important
consideration in the applications process because it represents a detailed, on-site evaluation of the institution's overall record of performance under the CRA by its appropriate
federal supervisor.10
Bank received a "satisfactory" rating at its most recent
CRA performance evaluation by its primary federal supervisor, the FDIC, as of October 22, 2001.11
In reviewing the effect of the proposal on the convenience and needs of the communities to be served, the
Board has carefully considered all the facts of record,
including the views of the commenter,12 Wakashio's
10. See Interagency Questions and Answers Regarding Community
Reinvestment, 66 Federal Register 36,620 and 36,639 (2001).
11. The commenter noted that Bank received a "low satisfactory"
rating in its performance evaluation under the investment test.
Although examiners determined that Bank had not acted in a leadership role relative to community development investments, they considered its investments to be responsive to the needs identified in Bank's
assessment areas, including those neighborhoods designated as lowand moderate-income. Wakashio states that Bank has substantially
improved its community development investments since the date of
the last evaluation, noting that Bank currently has approximately
$8.3 million in community development investments. These investments include $5 million in a CRA-qualified fund investment that
closed in December 2002.
12. The commenter also noted that the section of the examination
addressing the lending test stated that the distribution of small business loans reflected poor dispersion among businesses with gross
annual revenue of $1 million or less. Bank has defined its business
strategy as serving manufacturers, distributors, wholesalers, importers, and commercial real estate developers that have revenues of more
than $5 million and require loans of more than $1 million. The
examiners noted that Bank's business lending was well distributed in




response, and reports of examinations of Bank's CRA
performance. Based on the review of the entire record and
for the reasons discussed above, the Board concludes that
considerations relating to the convenience and needs factor, including the CRA performance record of the relevant
depository institution, is consistent with approval.
Other Supervisory Considerations
Section 3 of the BHC Act also provides that the Board may
not approve an application involving a foreign bank unless
the bank is subject to comprehensive supervision or regulation on a consolidated basis by the appropriate authorities
in the bank's home country.13 The Board previously determined, in applications under the International Banking Act
and the BHC Act, that certain Japanese commercial banks
were subject to comprehensive consolidated supervision by
their home country supervisor.14 In this case, the Board has
determined that on consummation of the transaction, New
SMBC would be supervised on substantially the same
terms and conditions as these banks.
In addition, section 3 of the BHC Act requires the Board
to determine that a foreign bank has provided adequate
assurances that it will make available to the Board such
information on its operations and activities and those of its
affiliates that the Board deems appropriate to determine
and enforce compliance with the BHC Act.15 The Board
has reviewed the restrictions on disclosure in jurisdictions
where Wakashio would have material operations and has
communicated with relevant government authorities concerning access to information. Wakashio has committed
that, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, it will
make available to the Board such information on the operations of New SMBC and its affiliates that the Board deems
necessary to determine and enforce compliance with the
its assessment area and that almost half of the loans originated in its
Los Angeles and Orange County assessment areas were made to
businesses in low- and moderate-income census tracts. The examiners
also stated that Bank's low loan penetration among small businesses
was given less weight in the bank's overall rating because of its
primary target market and business strategy.
Examiners rated Bank "high satisfactory" under the lending test, in
part because they concluded that it had an outstanding record of
originating and maintaining community development loans, and they
described the bank as a leader in community development lending.
13. 12 U.S.C. § 1842(c)(3)(B). Under Regulation Y, the Board uses
the standards enumerated in Regulation K to determine whether a
foreign bank that has applied under section 3 of the BHC Act is
subject to consolidated home country supervision. See 12 C.F.R.
225.13(a)(4). Regulation K provides that a foreign bank will be
considered to be subject to comprehensive supervision or regulation
on a consolidated basis if the Board determines that the bank is
supervised or regulated in such a manner that its home country
supervisor receives sufficient information on the worldwide operations
of the bank, including its relationship to any affiliates, to assess the
bank's overall financial condition and its compliance with law and
regulation. See 12 C.F.R. 211.24(c)(1).

BHC Act and other applicable federal law. Wakashio also
has committed to cooperate with the Board to obtain any
waivers or exemptions that may be necessary to enable its
affiliates to make any such information available to the
Board. In light of these commitments, the Board has concluded that Wakashio has provided adequate assurances
of access to any appropriate information the Board may
request. For these reasons, and based on all the facts of
record, the Board has concluded that the supervisory factors it is required to consider under section 3(c)(3) of the
BHC Act are consistent with approval.
Conclusion
Based on the foregoing and in light of all the facts of
record, the Board has determined that the application
should be, and hereby is, approved. In reaching its conclusion, the Board has considered all the facts of record in
light of the factors that it is required to consider under
the BHC Act and other applicable statutes. The Board's
approval is specifically conditioned on compliance by
Wakashio, SMBC, SMFG, and New SMBC with all the
representations and commitments made in connection with
the application, with the conditions stated or referred to in
this order, and on the receipt by Wakashio of all necessary
regulatory approvals. These representations, commitments,
and conditions are deemed to be conditions imposed in
writing by the Board in connection with its findings and
decision and, as such, may be enforced in proceedings
under applicable law.
The banking transaction shall not be consummated
before the fifteenth calendar day after the effective date of
this order, and the transaction may not be consummated
later than three months after the effective date of this order,
unless such period is extended for good cause by the Board
or by the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, acting
pursuant to delegated authority.

sory, and merchant banking activities.2 In the United States,
FBRG conducts its securities and advisory activities
through several subsidiaries subject to regulation by the
Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), including
Friedman, Billings, Ramsey & Co., Inc., Arlington, a
broker-dealer registered with the SEC under section 15 of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. §78o).
Bank is the only bank controlled by FBRG and, with assets
of $90.2 million, it is the 107th largest depository institution in Maryland. Bank controls deposits of approximately
$33.4 million in the state, representing less than 1 percent
of deposits in depository institutions in Maryland.3
Factors Governing Board Review of Transaction
The BHC Act sets forth the factors that the Board must
consider when reviewing the formation of a bank holding
company or the acquisition of a bank. These factors are the
competitive effects of the proposal in the relevant geographic markets; the financial and managerial resources
and future prospects of the companies and banks involved
in the proposal; the convenience and needs of the communities to be served, including the records of performance
under the Community Reinvestment Act (12 U.S.C. §2901
et seq.) ("CRA") of the insured depository institutions
involved in the transaction, and other supervisory factors.
The Board has considered these factors in light of a
record that includes information provided by FBRG, confidential supervisory and examination information from various federal agencies, and publicly reported financial and
other information. In addition, the Board has considered a
public comment received on the proposal.
Competitive Considerations
Section 3 of the BHC Act prohibits the Board from approving a proposal that would result in a monopoly or would be
in furtherance of any attempt to monopolize the business of
banking in any relevant market. The BHC Act also prohibits the Board from approving a proposed bank acquisition
that would substantially lessen competition in any relevant
banking market unless the anticompetitive effects of the
proposal are clearly outweighed in the public interest by
the probable effect of the proposal in meeting the convenience and needs of the community to be served.4 This
proposal represents an internal reorganization of the existing operations of FBRG and would not result in either an
expansion of operations or the acquisition of an additional
bank. There is also no evidence in this case that the
transaction would lessen competition or create a monopoly
in any relevant market. Based on all the facts of record, the
Board has determined that competitive factors are consistent with approval of the proposal.

Financial, Managerial, and Other Supervisory
Considerations
The BHC Act requires the Board to consider the financial
and managerial resources and future prospects of the companies and banks involved in a proposal and certain other
supervisory factors. In evaluating the financial and managerial factors, the Board has reviewed confidential examination and other supervisory information evaluating the
financial and managerial strength of Applicants; FBRG and
its affiliates, including its regulated subsidiaries; and Bank.
After consummation of the proposal, New FBR would
elect to be treated as a real estate investment trust
("REIT") under the Internal Revenue Code ("IR Code"). 5
New FBR and its subsidiaries and affiliates would continue
to engage only in activities that are permissible for a
financial holding company under section 4(k) of the BHC
Act.
Certain requirements applicable to New FBR under the
IR Code might limit its ability to serve as a source of
financial strength to Bank, because the requirements may
limit the amount of capital available to a bank subsidiary
of a bank holding company that is organized as a REIT.6
Applicants note, however, that New FBR may downstream
capital to Holdings and retain income earned at the Holdings level to support the operations of Bank.7
Applicants have also stated that, for a variety of business
reasons unrelated to the BHC Act requirements, Applicants
intend to discontinue being financial holding companies
and to limit the activities of Bank to those of a limitedpurpose trust company. In particular, Applicants have committed that, within six months of consummation of the
proposed reorganization, Bank will limit its operations
so that it no longer meets the definition of a bank under
section 2(c)(1) of the BHC Act. New FBR would then
cease to be a bank holding company.
Bank is currently well capitalized under relevant federal
guidelines, and all the subsidiaries of FBRG that are subject to regulatory capital requirements exceed the required
minimum capital levels. The Board notes that after
accounting for certain requirements under the IR Code,
New FBR would have, pro forma, more than adequate
capital to support the ongoing operations of Bank for six
months.
The Board has carefully considered the financial and
managerial resources of Applicants and Bank in light of all
the facts of record, including commitments made by Appli5. See 12 U.S.C. §§856-860.
6. Under the IR Code, the amount of non-REIT assets that a REIT
may hold in a taxable REIT subsidiary, which is subject to taxation at
ordinary corporate rates, is limited to 20 percent of the REIT's total
assets. See 12 U.S.C. § 856(c). A REIT is also required to distribute 90 percent of its net income to its shareholders each year. See
12 U.S.C. § 857(a). Holdings, which would be the parent of Bancorp
and Bank, would be organized as a taxable REIT subsidiary.
7. Applicants note that income earned by a taxable REIT subsidiary is not subject to the mandatory distribution requirement until paid
as a dividend to the REIT. Moreover, funds invested by a REIT in its
taxable REIT subsidiary are not subject to the mandatory distribution
requirement.

cants, and has concluded that considerations relating to the
financial and managerial resources and future prospects of
the organizations involved are consistent with approval, as
are other supervisory factors.
Convenience and Needs Considerations
In acting on a proposal under section 3 of the BHC Act, the
Board is required to consider the effects of the proposal on
the convenience and needs of the communities to be served
and take into account the records of the relevant depository
institutions under the CRA.8 The CRA requires the federal
financial supervisory agencies to encourage financial institutions to help meet the credit needs of local communities
in which they operate, consistent with safe and sound
operation, and requires the appropriate federal supervisory
agency to take into account the credit needs of its entire
community, include low- and moderate-income neighborhoods, in evaluating bank holding company formation proposals. The Board has, therefore, carefully considered the
effect of the proposal on the convenience and needs of the
communities to be served in light of all the facts of record,
including a comment received on the proposal, and the
records of the relevant depository institutions under the
CRA.9
The Board has long held that consideration of the convenience and needs factor includes a review of the records of
the relevant depository institutions under the CRA. In this
case, the Board notes that the proposal would effect a
corporate reorganization and would not result in an expansion of operations or the acquisition of an additional bank.
In addition, FBRG holds a small number of shares as a
passive minority investor in several depository institutions
over which it exercises no control.
As provided in the CRA, the Board evaluates the record
of performance of an institution in light of examinations by
the appropriate federal supervisors of the CRA performance records of that institution. An institution's most
recent CRA performance evaluation is a particularly important consideration in the applications process because it
represents a detailed, on-site evaluation of the institution's
overall record of performance under the CRA by its appropriate federal supervisor.10
8. See 12 U.S.C. § 2903(a)(2).
9. The commenter expressed concern about several institutions in
which Applicants would hold less than a 10 percent voting interest
by asserting that Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (12 U.S.C. §2801
et seq.) ("HMDA") data reported by Hingham Institution for Savings
("Hingham") and Bell Federal Savings and Loan Association
("Bell") revealed a pattern of excluding African-American and Hispanic communities and individuals in the Boston, Massachusetts, and
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Metropolitan Statistical Areas ("MSA").
The commenter also made a similar allegation based on a review of
the HMDA data of Pacific Crest Mortgage Company for loans made
in the Riverside County, California, MSA. Pacific Crest Mortgage is
not affiliated with any company involved in this proposal.
The commenter also objected to one institution's participation in a
loan program based on anticipated tax refunds. The Board notes that
neither FBRG nor its subsidiaries or affiliates makes this type of loan.
10. The Interagency Questions and Answers Regarding Community Reinvestment provide that a CRA examination is an important




221

The Board has reviewed in detail Bank's record of
performance under the CRA, as well as information presented by Applicants related to the convenience and needs
factor. Before its acquisition by FBRG, Bank, then doing
business as Rushmore Trust and Savings, FSB ("Rushmore"), received an overall rating of "satisfactory" from
its primary federal supervisor, the Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS"), at its most recent evaluation for CRA
performance, as of June 1999.11
Each of the institutions in which Applicants would have
an investment of less than 10 percent also received a
"satisfactory" or better rating from its federal supervisory
agency in its most recent examination for CRA performance.12 Moreover, examiners found no evidence of prohibited discrimination, other illegal credit practices, or
violations of the fair lending laws at any of the depository
institutions involved in the proposal.
Based on all the facts of record, the Board has concluded
that considerations related to the convenience and needs of
the communities to be served, including the CRA performance records of the institutions involved, are consistent
with approval.
Nonbanking Activities
In connection with the reorganization, Applicants have
also filed notices under section 4(c)(8) and (j) of the BHC
Act to retain interests of greater than 5 percent of the
voting shares of three savings and loan associations held
by FBRG and thereby engage in operating savings and
loan associations.13 To approve the notices, the Board must
determine that the proposed acquisitions may reasonably
be expected to produce benefits to the public that outweigh
possible adverse effects, such as undue concentration of
resources, decreased or unfair competition, conflicts of
interests, or unsound banking practices.14
FBRG has indicated that it expects the proposal would
improve the financial position and future business prospects of the organization. The proposal also represents a
reorganization of FBRG, and would not entail the acquisition of any new banking interests or commencement of any
new nonbanking activities. Therefore, the Board has conand often controlling factor in the consideration of an institution's
CRA record. See 66 Federal Register 36,620 and 36,639 (2001).
11. Rushmore converted to a national bank immediately prior to its
acquisition by FBRG in 2001.
12. These institutions received the following ratings from the federal supervisors as of the dates indicated: (1) Hingham, "satisfactory,"
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"), January 2001;
(2) Bell, "satisfactory, " OTS, June 2001; (3) Imperial Capital Bank,
"satisfactory," FDIC, March 2001; (4) Pacific Crest Bank, "satisfactory," FDIC, September 2002; (5) Quaker City Bank, "outstanding,"
OTS, June 2001; (6) Hawthorne Savings Bank, F.S.B., "outstanding,"
OTS, July 2002; (7) Bank Rhode Island, "satisfactory," FDIC,
July 2002; (8) The Bank, "satisfactory," Federal Reserve Bank of
Atlanta, September 2001; and (9) Pacific Union Bank, "outstanding,"
FDIC, April 2001.
13. The Board has previously determined that operating a savings
association is closely related to banking for purposes of section 4(c)(8)
of the BHC Act. See 12 C.F.R. 225.28(b)(4)(ii).

Federal Reserve Bulletin • May 2003

eluded that the conduct of the proposed nonbanking activities within the framework established in this order, prior
orders, and Regulation Y is unlikely to result in any of the
adverse effects noted above that would not be outweighed
by the public benefits of the proposal, such as gains in
efficiency.
Accordingly, based on all the facts of record, the Board
has determined that the balance of public interest factors
that it must consider under the standard of section 4(j) of
the BHC Act is favorable and consistent with approval.
Conclusion Regarding Bank Holding Company
Formation
Based on the foregoing, the Board has determined that
the applications and notices should be, and hereby are,
approved.15 In reaching its conclusion, the Board has considered all the facts of record in light of the factors the
Board is required to consider under the BHC Act.
The Board's approval is specifically conditioned on
compliance by Applicants with all the commitments made
in connection with the applications and notices. For purposes of this action, the commitments relied on by the
Board in reaching its decision are deemed to be conditions
imposed in writing by the Board in connection with its
findings and decision and, as such, may be enforced in
proceedings under applicable law.
The banking acquisitions shall not be consummated
before the fifteenth calendar day after the effective date of
this order, and the proposal shall not be consummated later
than three months after the effective date of this order,
unless such periods are extended for good cause by the
Board or the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond, acting
pursuant to delegated authority.

15. The commenter requested that the Board hold a hearing on the
proposal. Section 3 of the BHC Act does not require the Board to hold
a public hearing on an application unless the appropriate supervisory
authority for the bank to be acquired makes a timely written recommendation of denial of the application. The Board has not received
such a recommendation from the appropriate supervisory authority.
The Board's regulations provide for a hearing under section 4 of the
BHC Act if there are disputed issues of material fact that cannot be
resolved in some other manner. 12 C.F.R. 225.25(a)(2). Under its
rules, the Board also may, in its discretion, hold a public meeting or
hearing on an application to acquire a bank if a meeting or hearing is
necessary or appropriate to clarify factual issues related to the application and to provide an opportunity for testimony. 12 C.F.R. 225.16(e).
The Board has considered carefully the commenter's request in
light of all the facts of record. In the Board's view, the public has had
ample opportunity to submit comments on the proposal, and in fact,
the commenter has submitted a written comment that the Board has
considered carefully in acting on the proposal. The request fails to
identify disputed issues of fact that are material to the Board's
decision that would be clarified by a public meeting or hearing.
Moreover, the commenter's request fails to demonstrate why its
written comments do not present its views adequately or why a
meeting or hearing would otherwise be necessary or appropriate. For
these reasons, and based on all the facts of record, the Board has
determined that a public meeting or hearing is not required or warranted in this case. Accordingly, the request for a hearing on the
proposal is denied.




Financial Holding Company Elections
Applicants have also filed with the Board elections to
become financial holding companies pursuant to section 4(k) and (I) of the BHC Act and section 225.82 of
Regulation Y. Applicants have certified that Bank is well
capitalized and well managed and have provided all the
information required under Regulation Y.
The Board has reviewed the examination ratings
received by Bank under the CRA and other relevant examinations and information. Based on all the facts of record,
the Board has determined that these elections to become
financial holding companies will become effective on consummation of the proposal, if on that date Bank remains
well capitalized and well managed and has at least a
satisfactory CRA rating.
By order of the Board of Governors, effective March 14,
2003.
Voting for this action: Chairman Greenspan, Vice Chairman Ferguson, and Governors Gramlich, Bies, Olson, Bernanke, and Kohn.

M&T Bank Corporation
Buffalo, New York
Order Approving the Acquisition of a Bank Holding
Company, Merger of Banks, and Establishment of
Branches
M&T Bank Corporation ("M&T"), a bank holding company within the meaning of the Bank Holding Company
Act ("BHC Act"), has requested the Board's approval
under section 3 of the BHC Act (12 U.S.C. § 1842) to
merge with Allfirst Financial Inc. ("Allfirst") and thereby
acquire Allfirst's subsidiary banks, including its lead subsidiary bank, Allfirst Bank, both in Baltimore, Maryland.1
In addition, M&T has requested the Board's approval
under section 4(c)(8) and (j) of the BHC Act (12 U.S.C.
§ 1843(c)(8) and (j)) and section 225.24 of the Board's
Regulation Y (12 C.F.R. 225.24) to acquire the nonbanking
subsidiaries of Allfirst.2 M&T also has filed notice under
section 4(c)(13) of the BHC Act (12 U.S.C. § 1843(c)(13))
and subpart A of the Board's Regulation K (12 C.F.R. 211,
subpart A) to acquire certain foreign investments controlled by Allfirst.

1. Allfirst's other subsidiary bank is Allfirst Financial Center, N.A.,
Millsboro, Delaware ("Allfirst Delaware"). M&T would acquire Allfirst from Allied Irish Banks, p.l.c., Dublin, Ireland ("Allied Irish"), in
exchange for shares of M&T and other consideration. Allied Irish has
filed a related application to acquire the shares of M&T. By order
dated today, the Board has approved the Allied Irish proposal. Allied
Irish Banks, p.l.c. (Order dated March 11, 2003).
2. The nonbanking subsidiaries are listed in Appendix A.

Legal Developments

M&T's lead bank, Manufacturers and Traders Trust
Company, also in Buffalo ("Trust Company"), a state
member bank, has applied under section 18(c) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (12 U.S.C. § 1828(c)) (the
"Bank Merger Act") to merge with Allfirst Bank, with
Trust Company as the surviving institution. In addition,
Trust Company proposes to retain and operate branches at
the locations of the main office and branches of Allfirst
Bank,3 including Allfirst Bank's foreign branch in George
Town, Cayman Islands.
Notice of the proposal, affording interested persons an
opportunity to submit comments, has been published in
accordance with the BHC Act, the Bank Merger Act, and
the Board's Rules of Procedure (12 C.F.R. 262.3(b)) in the
Federal Register (67 Federal Register 69,223 (2002)) and
locally. As required by the Bank Merger Act, reports on the
competitive effects of the merger were requested from the
United States Attorney General, Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation, and the Office of the Comptroller of the
Currency. The time for filing comments has expired, and
the Board has considered the proposal and all comments
received in light of the factors set forth in sections 3 and 4
of the BHC Act, the Bank Merger Act, and the statutory
provisions that govern the retention and operation of interstate branches.
M&T, with total consolidated assets of $34.1 billion, is
the 33rd largest commercial banking organization in the
United States, controlling less than 1 percent of the total
assets of insured commercial banks in the United States
("total banking assets"). 4 M&T operates banks in Maryland, New York, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia. M&T is
the sixth largest banking organization in New York, controlling deposits of $15.7 billion, representing approximately 3 percent of total deposits in depository institutions
in the state ("state deposits").5 M&T is the sixth largest
banking organization in Pennsylvania, controlling deposits
of $4.5 billion, representing approximately 2.4 percent of
state deposits, and the seventeenth largest banking organization in Maryland, controlling deposits of $470 million,
representing less than 1 percent of state deposits.
Allfirst, with total consolidated assets of $18.3 billion, is
the 46th largest commercial banking organization in the
United States, controlling less than 1 percent of total banking assets. The banks owned by Allfirst operate in Delaware, the District of Columbia, Maryland, Pennsylvania,
and Virginia. Allfirst is the second largest banking organization in Maryland, controlling deposits of $7.5 billion,
representing approximately 10.6 percent of state deposits,
and the eighth largest banking organization in Pennsylvania, controlling deposits of $3.6 billion, representing
approximately 1.9 percent of state deposits.
After consummation of the proposal, M&T would
become the 22nd largest commercial banking organization
3. See 12 U.S.C §§321, 601, and 1831u. The branches are listed in
Appendix B.
4. Asset data are as of September 30, 2002.

in the United States, with total consolidated assets of
$52.4 billion, representing less than 1 percent of total
banking assets. M&T would remain the sixth largest banking organization in Pennsylvania, controlling deposits of
$8.1 billion, representing approximately 4.3 percent of
state deposits, and the second largest banking organization
in Maryland, controlling deposits of approximately $8 billion, representing approximately 11.3 percent of state
deposits.6
Interstate Analysis
Section 3(d) of the BHC Act allows the Board to approve
an application by a bank holding company to acquire
control of a bank located in a state other than the home
state of the bank holding company if certain conditions are
met. The Board may not approve a proposal subject to
section 3(d) if, after consummation, the applicant would
control more than 10 percent of the total deposits of
insured depository institutions in the United States.7 In
addition, the Board may not approve a proposal if, after
consummation of the proposal, the applicant would control
30 percent or more of the total deposits of insured depository institutions in any state in which both the applicant
and the organization to be acquired operate an insured
depository institution, or such higher or lower percentage
as established by state law.8
For purposes of the BHC Act, the home state of M&T is
New York, the home state of Allfirst is Maryland, and
Allfirst's subsidiary banks are located in Delaware, the
District of Columbia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Virginia.9 On consummation of the proposal, M&T would
control less than 1 percent of the total deposits of insured
depository institutions in the United States.10 M&T would
control less than 30 percent of total deposits held by
insured depository institutions in Maryland or Pennsylvania, the only states in which both M&T and Allfirst
operate banks.11
All other requirements of section 3(d) of the BHC Act
are met. M&T is adequately capitalized and adequately
managed, as defined by applicable law. In addition, Allfirst's subsidiary banks have been in existence for the
minimum age requirements established by applicable state
6. M&T does not currently control deposits in Delaware, the District of Columbia, or Virginia, so the percentage of deposits in those
states would not increase on consummation of this proposal.
7. 12 U.S.C. § 1842(d)(2)(A). Insured depository institutions
include all insured banks, savings banks, and savings associations.
8. 12 U.S.C. § 1842(d)(2)(BMD).
9. A bank holding company's home state is the state in which the
total deposits of all banking subsidiaries of the company were the
largest on July 1, 1966, or the date on which the company became a
bank holding company, whichever is later. 12 U.S.C. § 1841(o)(4)(C).
For purposes of section 3(d) of the BHC Act, the Board considers a
bank to be located in the states in which the bank is chartered,
headquartered, or operates a branch.
10. Data are as of June 30, 2002.
11. Maryland's deposit cap is the same as that set forth in section 3(d)(2)(B) of the BHC Act. See Md. Code Ann., Fin. Inst.
§5-906(b) (Michie 2001) (30 percent). Pennsylvania does not have a
deposit cap applicable to the proposal.

Federal Reserve Bulletin • May 2003

law.12 Based on a review of all the facts of record, including a review of relevant state statutes, the Board finds that
all conditions for an interstate acquisition enumerated in
section 3(d) are met in this case. In light of all the facts of
record, the Board is permitted to approve the proposal
under section 3(d) of the BHC Act.
Competitive Factors
The Bank Merger Act and section 3 of the BHC Act
prohibit the Board from approving a proposal that would
result in a monopoly or be in furtherance of a monopoly.13
The acts also prohibit the Board from approving a proposal
that would substantially lessen competition in any relevant
banking market unless the anticompetitive effects of the
proposal in that banking market are clearly outweighed in
the public interest by the probable effect of the proposal in
meeting the convenience and needs of the community to be
served.14
M&T and Allfirst compete directly in seven banking
markets.15 The Board has reviewed carefully the competitive effects of the proposal in each of these banking markets in light of all the facts of record, including the number
of competitors that would remain in the markets, the relative share of total deposits in depository institutions controlled by M&T and Allfirst in the markets ("market deposits"), 16 the concentration level of market deposits and the
increase in this level as measured by the HerfindahlHirschman Index ("HHI") under the Department of Justice
Merger Guidelines ("DOJ Guidelines"),17 and other characteristics of the markets.
12. Pursuant to 12 U.S.C. § 1842(d)(l)(B)(ii), the applicable age
requirement for the District of Columbia is five years. See D.C. Code
Ann. §26-706.01(a). Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Virginia
do not have minimum age requirements applicable to the proposal.
The Board also has taken into account M&T's record of compliance
with applicable state community reinvestment laws.
13. 12 U.S.C. §§ 1828(c)(5)(A) and 1842(c)(1)(A).
14. See 12 U.S.C. §§ 1828(c)(5)(B) and 1842(c)(1)(B).
15. The markets are described in Appendix C. The proposal's
effects on the concentration of banking resources in them are discussed in Appendix D.
16. Deposit and market share data are based on annual branch
reports filed as of June 30, 2002, and on calculations in which the
deposits of thrift institutions are included at 50 percent. The Board has
previously indicated that thrift institutions have become, or have the
potential to become, significant competitors of commercial banks.
See, e.g., Midwest Financial Group, 75 Federal Reserve Bulletin 386
(1989); National City Corporation, 70 Federal Reserve Bulletin 743
(1984). Thus, the Board regularly has included thrift deposits in the
calculation of market share on a 50 percent weighted basis. See, e.g.,
First Hawaiian, Inc., 77 Federal Reserve Bulletin 52 (1991).
17. Under the DOJ Guidelines, 49 Federal Register 26,823 (1984),
a market is considered unconcentrated if the post merger HHI is under
1000, and moderately concentrated if the post merger HHI is between
1000 and 1800. The Department of Justice has informed the Board
that a bank merger or acquisition generally will not be challenged (in
the absence of other factors indicating anticompetitive effects) unless
the post merger HHI is at least 1800 and the merger increases the HHI
by more than 200 points. The Department has stated that the higher
than normal HHI thresholds for screening bank mergers for anticompetitive effects implicitly recognize the competitive effects of limitedpurpose lenders and other nondepository financial institutions.




Consummation of the proposal would be consistent with
Board precedent and the DOJ Guidelines in all relevant
banking markets. After consummation of the proposal, one
market would remain unconcentrated and six markets
would remain moderately concentrated as measured by the
HHI. The Department of Justice has reviewed the proposal
and advised the Board that its consummation would not
likely have a significantly adverse effect on competition
in any relevant banking market. In addition, no banking
agency has indicated that the proposal raises competitive
issues. Based on these and all the facts of record, the Board
concludes that consummation of the proposal is not likely
to result in any significantly adverse effects on competition
or on the concentration of banking resources in the banking
markets noted above or in any other relevant banking
market.
Financial, Managerial, and Other Supervisory Factors
The Bank Merger Act and section 3 of the BHC Act also
require that the Board consider the financial and managerial resources and future prospects of the organizations
involved in a proposal as well as certain other supervisory
factors under the BHC Act.18 The Board has considered
carefully the financial and managerial resources and future
prospects of M&T, Allfirst, and their respective subsidiary
banks and other supervisory factors in light of all the facts
of record, including comments received on the proposal,
reports of examination and other confidential supervisory
information assessing the financial and managerial
resources of the organizations, and information provided
by M&T and Allfirst. Based on all the facts of record, the
Board concludes that considerations relating to the financial and managerial resources and future prospects of the
organizations involved are consistent with approval, as are
the other supervisory factors that the Board must consider
under section 3 of the BHC Act.
Convenience and Needs Factor
In acting on proposals under the Bank Merger Act and
section 3 of the BHC Act, the Board is required to consider
the effect of the proposal on the convenience and needs of
the communities to be served.19 The Community Reinvestment Act (12 U.S.C. §2901 et seq.) ("CRA") requires that
each insured depository institution be assessed on its record
of meeting the credit needs of its entire community, including low- and moderate-income ("LMI") neighborhoods,
consistent with safe and sound operation of the institution.
The CRA requires the Board, in evaluating proposals under
the Bank Merger Act and section 3 of the BHC Act, to take
into account the CRA performance records of the insured
depository institutions involved.20 The Board has carefully
considered the convenience and needs factor and the CRA
performance records of each subsidiary bank of M&T and
18. 12 U.S.C. §§ 1828(c)(5) and 1842(c).
19. 12 U.S.C. §§ 1828(c)(5) and 1842(c)(2).
20. 12 U.S.C. §§ 2903(a)(2) and 2902(4).

Legal Developments

Allfirst in light of all the facts of record, including public
comments on the proposal.
A. Summary of Public Comments
Two commenters submitted letters about the proposal. One
commenter contended, based on data submitted under the
Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (12 U.S.C. §2801 et seq.)
("HMDA"), that M&T engaged in disparate treatment of
minority individuals in home mortgage lending, and that
M&T denied loan applications from minorities more frequently than it denied applications from nonminorities.
The other commenter asserted that M&T's branch distribution in the New York Consolidated Metropolitan Statistical
Area ("CMSA") was inadequate, and that although 30 percent of the tracts in the assessment area were LMI tracts,
only 14 percent of M&T's branches were in LMI tracts.
That commenter also expressed concern about M&T's
commitment to retaining branches in New York City's
LMI neighborhoods.
B. CRA Performance

Examinations

An institution's most recent CRA performance evaluation
is a particularly important consideration in the applications
process because it represents a detailed evaluation of the
institution's overall record of performance under the CRA
by its appropriate federal supervisor.21 Both of M&T's
subsidiary banks received ratings of "satisfactory" or better in the most recent examinations of their CRA performance. Trust Company, which accounts for approximately
98 percent of the total consolidated assets of M&T,
received an "outstanding" rating from the Federal Reserve
Bank of New York, as of June 2002 ("2002 Evaluation").
Trust Company also received an "outstanding" rating from
the New York State Banking Department, as of April 2000.
M&T Bank, National Association, Oakfield, New York,
received a "satisfactory" rating from the Office of the
Comptroller of the Currency, as of January 2000.
Allfirst Bank received a "satisfactory" rating from the
Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond, as of January 2001
("2001 Evaluation").22 M&T has stated that it intends to
retain Allfirst Bank's CRA program and structure after
consummation of the proposal to assist M&T in ascertaining the needs of the communities served by Allfirst.
C. CRA Performance of Trust Company
Overview: In the 2002 Evaluation,23 Trust Company
received "outstanding" ratings under the lending, invest21. See Interagency Questions and Answers Regarding Community
Reinvestment, 66 Federal Register 36,620 and 36,639 (2001).
22. Allfirst Delaware does not grant credit to the public in the
ordinary course of business, and it is treated as a special purpose bank
that is not subject to evaluation under the CRA. See 12 C.F.R.

ment, and service performance tests.24 Examiners characterized the level of Trust Company's responsiveness to
retail credit needs in its assessment areas as excellent.
Trust Company and its affiliates originated and purchased
more than $4.3 billion of HMDA-reportable loans during
the review period. Examiners concluded that Trust Company's lending was good in terms of overall geographic
distribution and distribution to borrowers of different
income levels.
Examiners stated that Trust Company offered a number
of innovative and flexible lending products to increase
lending in LMI geographies and to LMI borrowers, including Federal Housing Administration ("FHA") mortgages,
which were offered throughout Trust Company's assessment areas. During the review period, Trust Company
made 674 mortgage loans totaling $40 million through a
program that featured below-market interest rates, reduced
down-payment requirements, and other favorable terms.
Trust Company made more than 19,800 small business
loans during the review period, totaling more than $2.5 billion.25 Examiners noted that Trust Company had a good
distribution of loans to businesses of different sizes
throughout its assessment areas.
Examiners characterized Trust Company's community
development lending performance as excellent. During the
evaluation period, Trust Company extended qualified community development loan commitments totaling $294 million and issued $35 million in letters of credit for affordable housing and other community development purposes.
Examiners concluded that Trust Company's $92 million
in loan commitments to LMI healthcare facility projects
for the elderly indicated a high level of responsiveness to
community credit needs in light of the large elderly population in many of Trust Company's assessment areas.
Examiners stated that Trust Company's community
development investments exhibited excellent responsiveness to the most urgent credit and community development
needs in its assessment areas. Trust Company's qualified
investments totaled $56 million, including investments of
$40 million during the evaluation period. Examiners
reported that $7 million in investments were for revitalizing inner cities, which examiners described as a critical
need in Trust Company's assessment areas in upstate
New York. Examiners also noted grants totaling $1.1 million to a school in an LMI area, which examiners considered to be a nonroutine investment.
Examiners concluded that Trust Company's branches
were readily accessible to all portions of its assessment areas.26 Examiners stated that Trust Company also
24. Trust Company elected to have the Federal Reserve Bank of
New York ("FRBNY") consider the lending activity in its assessment
areas by certain Trust Company subsidiaries and affiliates, including
M&T Mortgage Corporation and M&T Real Estate, Inc., both in
Buffalo, New York, and subsidiaries of Trust Company, and M&T
Bank, National Association, a direct subsidiary of M&T.
25. For purposes of this analysis, small business loans are business
loans with an original amount of $1 million or less.
26. One commenter referred to portions of the previous CRA
evaluation of Trust Company, as of June 2000 ("2000 Evaluation"),
which assessed Trust Company's branch distribution as weak in

226

enhanced distribution of banking services through ATMs,
on-line banking, telephone banking, and other alternative
delivery systems. They further noted that Trust Company
offered Lifeline Checking Accounts, an electronic benefits
transfer program, low-fee checking accounts for nonprofit
organizations, and other products designed to directly or
indirectly assist LMI individuals.
Examiners described Trust Company as a leader in providing community development services. During the
review period, Trust Company employees participated in
more than 400 workshops, seminars, and conferences
throughout its assessment areas and provided technical
assistance to more than 100 organizations that addressed
the needs of LMI individuals and communities. Trust
Company also participated in the Federal Home Loan
Bank Affordable Housing Program by sponsoring 24 grant
applications to construct and rehabilitate housing for LMI
individuals.
New York. In the 2002 Evaluation, Trust Company
received an "outstanding" rating under the lending test in
its New York assessment areas.27 During the review period,
Trust Company originated or purchased HMDA-reportable
loans in New York totaling more than $3.36 billion. Examiners reported that in 2000, Trust Company's 3 percent
market share of deposits in its assessment areas compared
favorably with its 3 percent market share of all HMDAreportable loans originated or purchased in New York
State.
Examiners concluded that the distribution of Trust Company's HMDA-reportable loans among borrowers of different income levels was good, as was the geographic distribution of its lending. Examiners stated that Trust
Company's distribution of HMDA-reportable loans to lowincome borrowers was adequate and consistent with available lending opportunities, which had been limited by
economic conditions and by disparities between housing
prices and income levels.28 Examiners characterized Trust
service to LMI census tracts in the New York-Northern New JerseyLong Island-Connecticut Consolidated Metropolitan Statistical Area
("New York CMSA"). The 2002 Evaluation rated Trust Company as
"outstanding" for its performance under the service test in the New
York CMSA. The 2002 Evaluation noted that an increased percentage
of Trust Company's branches in the New York CMSA were in LMI
census tracts compared with 2000, and that a number of branches
were contiguous to LMI census tracts in the New York CMSA.
Examiners also reported in the 2002 Evaluation that Trust Company's
alternative delivery systems enhanced its distribution of banking
services in the New York CMSA.
27. Trust Company's New York assessment areas in the 2002
Evaluation consisted of a portion of the New York CMSA; the
Buffalo-Niagara Falls, Rochester, Albany-Schenectady-Troy, UticaRome, Binghamton, and Jamestown Metropolitan Statistical Areas
("MSAs"); portions of the Syracuse and Elmira MSAs; Seneca,
Tompkins, Wyoming, Cattaraugus, Sullivan, and Ulster Counties; and
portions of Courtland, Steuben, and Allegany Counties.
28. One commenter, citing the 2000 Evaluation, asserted that Trust
Company's lending to low-income borrowers in the New York CSMA
was weak. The 2002 Evaluation noted that Trust Company's performance exceeded the performance of lenders in the aggregate ("aggregate lenders") in the New York CMSA and that the high cost of real
estate and the relatively low incomes in the New York CSMA limited
home ownership opportunities for low-income families.




Company's distribution of HMDA-reportable loans to
moderate-income borrowers as good. To assist LMI borrowers in New York, Trust Company offered loans through
the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae)
"Get Started" program, as well as FHA mortgages and
flexible mortgages through the State of New York Mortgage Association.
During the review period, Trust Company originated
and purchased nearly 16,000 small business or small farm
loans in New York, totaling almost $2 billion. Examiners
stated that Trust Company's distribution of loans among
businesses of different sizes was good.
Examiners described Trust Company's community
development lending performance as excellent.29 Trust
Company's loan commitments in New York during the
review period totaled $246 million, and Trust Company
also provided $30 million in letters of credit. Examiners
reported that Trust Company's community development
lending for affordable housing, an identified credit need in
Trust Company's assessment areas, totaled $136 million.
In the 2002 Evaluation, Trust Company received an
"outstanding" rating under the investment test in its
New York assessment areas. Examiners stated that Trust
Company's level of qualified community development
investments, which totaled $44 million, exhibited excellent
responsiveness to credit and community development needs
in New York. More than $20 million of the investments
were invested on a statewide basis, including $10 million in
collateral trust notes to develop affordable housing, $5 million in mortgage-backed securities to fund loans to LMI
borrowers, and $4 million to community development organizations. Examiners reported that Trust Company also
invested $2 million in projects qualifying for low-income
housing tax credits and contributed $4 million to support
charitable community development projects and programs.
Trust Company received an "outstanding" rating under
the service test in the New York assessment areas. Examiners stated that Trust Company's branches were readily
accessible to all geographies and to individuals of different
income levels and that variations in products and services
did not inconvenience LMI individuals or customers in
LMI geographies. Examiners also reported that Trust Company organized or participated in many workshops on
affordable housing and financial literacy. In addition, Trust
Company employees served on the boards and committees
of organizations that addressed the needs of LMI individuals and communities.
29. One commenter urged that Trust Company increase its community development lending to nonprofit organizations and its staffing
levels for community development programs in New York City. The
CRA requires that, in considering an acquisition proposal, the Board
carefully review the actual performance records of the relevant depository institutions in helping to meet the credit needs of their communities. Neither the CRA nor the federal banking agencies' CRA regulations require depository institutions to provide commitments for future
performance or staffing levels. Trust Company's CRA-related activities will be reviewed by the FRBNY in future performance evaluations, and its CRA performance record will be considered in any
subsequent applications by Trust Company to acquire a depository
institution.

Legal Developments

Pennsylvania. Examiners noted that during the review
period, Trust Company significantly expanded its presence
in Pennsylvania as a result of Trust Company's merger
in October 2000 with Keystone Financial Bank, National
Association, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.30 Accordingly,
Trust Company was engaged in integrating and developing
products, systems, and staff during the review period.
The 2002 Evaluation rated Trust Company's performance under the lending test as "high satisfactory" in its
Pennsylvania assessment areas. During the review period,
Trust Company originated or purchased HMDA-reportable
loans in Pennsylvania totaling more than $757 million.
Examiners concluded that the geographic distribution of
Trust Company's HMDA-reportable loans was good, as
was distribution among borrowers of different income levels. Examiners characterized Trust Company's distribution
of HMDA-reportable loans to moderate-income borrowers
as good and its distribution to low-income borrowers as
adequate. During the review period, Trust Company made
286 home purchase loans in Pennsylvania through its
Opportunity Loan program, which focuses on LMI borrowers and features reduced down-payment requirements,
prepurchase counseling, and options for financing closing
costs.
During the review period, Trust Company originated
and purchased more than 2,100 small business loans in
Pennsylvania, totaling more than $247 million. Examiners
reported that Trust Company's distribution of loans among
businesses of different sizes was good.
Examiners described Trust Company's community
development lending performance as good. Trust Company's loan commitments totaled $43 million, and Trust
Company also provided $5 million in letters of credit
to support economic development. Examiners noted that
Trust Company's lending commitments for affordable
housing totaled $16 million and that its commitments for
economic development totaled $26 million.
In the 2002 Evaluation, Trust Company received an
"outstanding" rating under the investment test in its Pennsylvania assessment areas. Examiners stated that Trust
Company's level of qualified community development
investments, which totaled $11.4 million, demonstrated
strong responsiveness to credit and community development needs. Examiners favorably cited Trust Company's
$2.3 million investment in a small business investment
company that financed small- and medium-sized manufacturing, distribution, and service companies in eastern Pennsylvania. Examiners also noted that Trust Company's
30. Before the review period, Trust Company's Pennsylvania
branches operated in the Scranton-Wilkes-Barre-Hazleton MSA.
After the merger with Keystone Financial Bank, National Association,
Trust Company's Pennsylvania assessment areas for the review period
consisted of the Pennsylvania portions of the PhiladelphiaWilmington-Atlantic City, PA-NJ-DE-MD CMSA; the HarrisburgLebanon-Carlisle, Scranton-Wilkes-Barre-Hazleton, Altoona, State
College, Reading, York, Allentown-Bethlehem-Easton, and Williamsport MSAs, in Pennsylvania; a portion of the Lancaster MSA, in
Pennsylvania; and Adams, Bedford, Bradford, Clearfield, Clinton,
Franklin, Huntingdon, Monroe, Montour, Northumberland, Schuylkill,
Snyder, Sullivan, Tioga, and Union Counties.




227

investments in agencies engaged in community revitalization totaled $1.5 million and that its grants to community
development organizations totaled more than $1 million.
Trust Company received an "outstanding" rating under
the service test in the Pennylvania assessment areas. Examiners stated that Trust Company's branches were readily
accessible to all geographies and to individuals of different
income levels and that variations in products and services
did not inconvenience LMI individuals or customers in
LMI geographies. Examiners also reported that Trust Company organized or participated in many workshops on
affordable housing and financial literacy. In addition, Trust
Company employees served on the boards and committees
of organizations that addressed the needs of LMI individuals and communities.
D. CRA Performance of Allfirst Bank
In the 2001 Evaluation, Allfirst Bank received "high satisfactory" ratings under the lending, investment, and service
performance tests.31 Allfirst Bank originated and purchased
HMDA-reportable loans totaling more than $750 million in
its assessment areas during the review period. Examiners
concluded that the overall distribution of loans to borrowers of different income levels was good, and loan penetration for LMI geographies ranged from good to excellent in
Allfirst Bank's assessment areas.
Examiners noted that Allfirst Bank assisted LMI borrowers in obtaining affordable housing by offering FHA and
Department of Veterans Affairs ("VA") loans and other
mortgage loans through state and local affordable housing
programs. In 2000, Allfirst Bank originated 459 mortgage
loans through these programs, totaling $93.4 million.
Allfirst Bank made more than 6,100 small business loans
in its assessment areas during the review period, totaling
more than $695 million. Examiners stated that the bank's
record of lending to businesses of different sizes ranged
from adequate to good, while its small business loan penetration for LMI geographies ranged from good to excellent. Examiners noted that Allfirst Bank originated 108
Small Business Administration loans, totaling $21 million
during 2000. Examiners reported that Allfirst Bank made a
relatively high level of community development loans during the review period, totaling almost $101 million.
Allfirst Bank's qualified community development investments during the review period consisted primarily of
investments in projects qualifying for low-income housing
tax credits. Examiners noted that the bank had created the
Allfirst Affordable Housing Fund, which promoted affordable housing by facilitating investment in projects qualifying for low-income housing tax credits and by providing
bridge financing to developers. During the review period,
Allfirst Bank also made community development grants
and contributions totaling $3.3 million.
Examiners considered Allfirst Bank's branch and ATM
locations to be readily accessible to all portions of the
31. The 2001 Evaluation covered a review period of January 1,
1999, through December 31, 2000.

228

Federal Reserve Bulletin • May 2003

bank's assessment areas. Examiners also noted that Allfirst
Bank provided affordable homebuying workshops and
seminars and counseling to small business owners.
E. HMDA Data
The Board also has considered M&T's lending record in
light of comments on the 2001 HMDA data reported by
M&T's subsidiaries. The Board notes that 2001 HMDA
data indicate that M&T's denial disparity ratio for Hispanic applicants was higher than the denial disparity
ratio for the aggregate lenders in five of the six MSAs
reviewed.32 In addition, M&T's denial disparity ratio for
African Americans was higher than the denial disparity
ratios for aggregate lenders in the two MSAs in which, of
the six MSAs reviewed, M&T made most of its mortgage
loans. The data reviewed also indicate that the percentages
of M&T's total HMDA-reportable loans to AfricanAmerican and Hispanic individuals in 2001 were below the
percentages for the aggregate lenders in three MSAs and
above the percentages for the aggregate lenders in three
MSAs.33 Finally, the percentage of M&T's total HMDAreportable loans to LMI individuals in 2001 exceeded the
percentage for the aggregate lenders in five of the six
MSAs reviewed.
The Board is concerned when an institution's record
indicates disparities in lending and believes that all banks
are obligated to ensure that their lending practices are
based on criteria that ensure not only safe and sound
banking, but also equal access to credit by creditworthy
applicants regardless of their race or income level. The
Board recognizes, however, that HMDA data alone provide
an incomplete measure of an institution's lending in its
community because the data cover only a few categories of
housing-related lending. HMDA data, moreover, provide
only limited information about the covered loans.34 HMDA
data, therefore, have limitations that make the data an
inadequate basis, absent other information, for concluding
that an institution has not adequately assisted in meeting its
community's credit needs or has engaged in illegal lending
discrimination.
32. The denial disparity ratio compares the denial rate for minority
loan applicants with that for nonminority applicants. The Board
reviewed the 2000 and 2001 HMDA data for Trust Company and its
affiliates in the following MSAs: Buffalo, New York City, and
Nassau-Suffolk, New York; Philadelphia and Harrisburg, Pennsylvania; and Baltimore, Maryland. The Board's review included the
HMDA data for M&T Mortgage Corporation and M&T Real Estate,
Inc.
33. The data indicate that the percentages of Trust Company's total
HMDA-reportable loans to minorities were not markedly below the
percentages for the aggregate lenders in the three MSAs in which
Trust Company lagged those lenders.
34. The data, for example, do not account for the possibility that an
institution's outreach efforts may attract a larger proportion of marginally qualified applicants than other institutions attract and do not
provide a basis for an independent assessment of whether an applicant
who was denied credit was, in fact, creditworthy. Credit history
problems and excessive debt levels relative to income (reasons most
frequently cited for a credit denial) are not available from HMDA
data.




Because of the limitations of HMDA data, the Board has
carefully considered the data and comments in light of
other information. Examiners conducting a fair lending
review of Trust Company in connection with the 2002
Evaluation reviewed loan applications from the Buffalo
MSA and found that credit criteria were consistently
applied to all applicants regardless of race. Examiners
discovered no evidence of prohibited discrimination or
other illegal credit practices. The Board has also considered the HMDA data in light of the overall lending records
of M&T and Allfirst. Those records, which include the
programs discussed above, show that the organizations'
subsidiary banks make credit available to all applicant
groups and significantly help to meet the credit needs of
their communities, including LMI areas.
F. Conclusion on the Convenience and Needs Factor
In reviewing the proposal's effect on the convenience and
needs of the communities to be served by the combined
organization, the Board has carefully considered the entire
record, including the public comments received and reports
of examinations of the CRA performance of the institutions involved. Based on all the facts of record, and for the
reasons discussed above, the Board concludes that considerations relating to the convenience and needs factor,
including the CRA performance records of the relevant insured depository institutions, are consistent with
approval of the proposal.
Nonbanking Activities
M&T also has filed notice under section 4(c)(8) and (j) of
the BHC Act to acquire nonbanking subsidiaries of Allfirst.
The Board has determined by regulation that the types of
activities for which notice has been provided are closely
related to banking for purposes of section 4(c)(8) of the
BHC Act and, therefore, permissible for bank holding
companies.35 M&T has committed to conduct the nonbanking activities in accordance with the Board's regulations
and orders governing these activities for bank holding
companies.
To approve this notice, the Board must determine that
the proposed activities "can reasonably be expected to
produce benefits to the public . . . that outweigh possible
adverse effects, such as undue concentration of resources,
decreased or unfair competition, conflicts of interests, or
unsound banking practices." 36
As part of its evaluation of the public interest factors, the
Board considered the financial condition and managerial
resources of M&T and its subsidiaries, including the companies to be acquired, and the effect of the proposed
transaction on those resources. For the reasons noted
above, and based on all the facts of record, the Board has
concluded that financial and managerial considerations are
consistent with approval of the proposal.
35. See 12 C.F.R. 225.28(b)(1), (3), (6), (11), and (14).
36. 12 U.S.C. §1843(j)(2)(A).

Legal Developments

The Board also has considered the competitive effects of
the proposed transaction under section 4 of the BHC Act.
To the extent that M&T and Allfirst offer different types of
nonbanking products or services, the proposal would not
result in a significant loss of competition. M&T and Allfirst
compete directly in the following activities: originating and
servicing capital equipment leases, providing credit-related
insurance, providing commercial real estate lending services, and providing financial and investment advisory
services. The markets for these nonbanking activities are
regional, national, or international in scope and are unconcentrated. The record in this case also indicates that there
are numerous providers of these services. Based on all the
facts of record, the Board concludes that consummation of
the proposal would have a de minimis effect on competition for the relevant nonbanking activities.
M&T has indicated that consummation of the proposal
would provide customers of the two organizations with
access to services across a broader geographic area. M&T
also has asserted that customers of both organizations
would gain access to a broader variety of nonbanking
products, including investment products and insurance
products.
The Board concludes that the conduct of the proposed
nonbanking activities within the framework of Regulation Y and Board precedent is not likely to result in adverse
effects, such as undue concentration of resources, conflicts
of interests, or unsound banking practices, that would
outweigh the public benefits of the proposal discussed
above. Accordingly, based on all the facts of record, the
Board has determined that the balance of public interest
factors that the Board must consider under the standard in
section 4(j) of the BHC Act is consistent with approval of
M&T's notice.
Trust Company also intends to operate Allfirst's existing
limited-purpose foreign branch in George Town, Cayman
Islands, under section 25 of the Federal Reserve Act and
the general consent provisions of section 211.3(b) of Regulation K (12 C.F.R. 211.3(b)). Trust Company has made
certain commitments in connection with this acquisition. In
addition, M&T has provided notice under section 4(c)(13)
of the BHC Act (12 U.S.C. § 1843(c)(13)) and section 211.9
of the Board's Regulation K (12 C.F.R. 211.9)) of its
intention to acquire certain foreign investments controlled
by Allfirst.37 The Board has concluded that all the factors it
is required to consider under the Federal Reserve Act, the
BHC Act, and the Board's Regulation K in connection
with this notice are consistent with approval.
Conclusion
Based on the foregoing, and in light of all the facts of
record, the Board has determined that the applications and

37. These investments are in Compania La Proa, Ltd., George
Town, Cayman Islands, and Bemberg Industrial, S.A., Buenos Aires,
Argentina.




229

notices should be, and hereby are, approved.38 In reaching
its conclusion, the Board has considered all the facts of
record in light of the factors it is required to consider under
the BHC Act, the Bank Merger Act, the Federal Reserve
Act, and the statutory factors it is required to consider
when reviewing an application for retaining and operating
branches.39 The Board's approval is specifically conditioned on compliance by M&T with all the commitments
made in connection with these applications and notices and
with the conditions stated or referenced in this order. The
Board's determination on the nonbanking activities also is
subject to all the terms and conditions set forth in Regulation Y, including those in sections 225.7 and 225.25(c)
(12 C.F.R. 225.7 and 225.25(c)), and to the Board's authority to require such modification or termination of the
activities of a bank holding company or any of its subsidiaries as the Board finds necessary to ensure compliance
with, and to prevent evasion of, the provisions of the BHC
Act and the Board's regulations and orders thereunder. For
purposes of this action, the commitments and conditions
relied on by the Board in reaching its decision are deemed
to be conditions imposed in writing by the Board in connection with its findings and decision and, as such, may be
enforced in proceedings under applicable law.
The banking acquisitions shall not be consummated
before the fifteenth calendar day after the effective date of
this order, and the proposal shall not be consummated later
than three months after the effective date of this order,
unless such period is extended for good cause by the Board
or by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, acting
pursuant to delegated authority.
By order of the Board of Governors, effective March 11,
2003.
Voting for this action: Chairman Greenspan, Vice Chairman Ferguson, and Governors Gramlich, Bies, Olson, Bernanke, and Kohn.
ROBERT DEV. FRIERSON

Deputy Secretary of the Board
38. One commenter suggested, particularly in light of the 2000
Evaluation, that the Board condition its approval of the proposal on a
requirement that M&T commit to keep the branches Trust Company
operates in LMI neighborhoods in the New York City area open for
ten years and open five new branches there within the next two years.
As previously noted, the 2002 Evaluation rated Trust Company "outstanding" both in the delivery of retail and community development
services in all assessment areas and for its performance on the service
test in the New York CMSA. See also discussion in footnote 29.
39. One commenter requested that the Board extend the comment
period on the proposal. The Board has accumulated a significant
record in this case, including reports of examination, supervisory
information, public reports and information, and considerable public
comment. In the Board's view, commenters have had ample opportunity to submit their views and, in fact, they have provided substantial
written submissions that have been considered carefully by the Board
in acting on the proposal. Moreover, the BHC Act and Regulation Y
require the Board to act on proposals submitted under those provisions
within certain time periods. 12 U.S.C. §§ 1842(b) and 1843(j)(l);
12 C.F.R. 225.15(d) and 225.24(d). Based on a review of all the facts
of record, the Board has concluded that the record in this case is
sufficient to warrant Board action at this time and that an extension of
the comment period is not warranted.

ORDERS ISSUED UNDER
BANKING ACT

INTERNATIONAL

Bancolombia, S.A.
Medellin, Colombia
Order Approving Establishment of an Agency
Bancolombia, S.A. ("Bank"), Medellin, Colombia, a foreign bank within the meaning of the International Banking
Act ("IBA"), has applied under section 7(d) of the IB A
(12 U.S.C. § 3105(d)) to establish an agency in Miami,
Florida. The Foreign Bank Supervision Enhancement Act
of 1991, which amended the IBA, provides that a foreign
bank must obtain the approval of the Board to establish an
agency in the United States.
Notice of the application, affording interested persons an
opportunity to comment, has been published in a newspaper of general circulation in Miami, Florida (Miami Daily
Business Review, April 1, 2002). The time for filing comments has expired, and the application and all comments
received have been considered.
Bank, with total consolidated assets of approximately
$4.3 billion, is the largest commercial bank in Colombia.1 Bank's shares are publicly traded in Colombia and
the United States. Suramericana de Inversiones S.A.
("Suramericana"), a Colombian insurance company, and
Compania de Cementos Argos, S.A. ("Argos"), a Colombian industrial company, control approximately 53 percent
of Bank's shares.2 Bank's remaining shares are widely
1. Unless otherwise indicated all data are as of December 31, 2002.
2. Due to significant cross-shareholdings, Suramericana and Argos
are subsidiaries of each other. Suramericana and Argos are part of a
loosely associated group of Colombian financial services and industrial companies collectively referred to as Grupo Empresarial Antioqueno ("Grupo"). Other Grupo-associated companies own a combined 9.1 percent of Bank's voting shares. Grupo is not a legal entity
and has no formal status under Colombian corporate, securities, or
banking laws, although Grupo companies informally coordinate when




held, with no individual or entity controlling more than
10 percent of voting shares.
Bank engages in commercial and retail banking
and international trade services through more than
320 branches, and it engages in leasing, trust, fiduciary,
asset management, investment banking, and securities
brokerage services through several subsidiaries. In addition, Bank operates bank subsidiaries in Panama and the
Cayman Islands. Bank does not have any operations in the
United States.
The proposed agency would complement and expand
Bank's current business. It primarily would offer corporate
banking, correspondent banking, international trade, private banking, cash management, and portfolio investment
services.
In order to approve an application by a foreign bank to
establish an agency in the United States, the IBA and
Regulation K require the Board to determine that the
foreign bank applicant engages directly in the business of
banking outside of the United States and has furnished to
the Board the information it needs to assess the application
adequately. The Board also shall take into account whether
the foreign bank and any foreign bank parent is subject to
comprehensive supervision or regulation on a consolidated
basis by its home country supervisor (12 U.S.C.
§ 3105(d)(2); 12 C.F.R. 211.24).3 The Board may also take
into account additional standards as set forth in the IBA
and Regulation K (12 U.S.C. §3105(d)(3)-(4); 12 C.F.R.
211.24(c)(2)-(3)).
The IBA includes a limited exception to the general
requirement relating to comprehensive, consolidated supervision (12 U.S.C. §3105(d)(6)). This exception provides
that, if the Board is unable to find that a foreign bank
seeking to establish a branch, agency, or commercial lending company is subject to comprehensive supervision or
regulation on a consolidated basis by the appropriate
making certain strategic business decisions. Suramericana and Argos
are considered to control Bank for purposes of the Bank Holding
Company Act of 1956, as amended ("BHC Act"), and the IBA and
are considered to be "ultimate parents" of Bank for purposes of
Regulation K. The 37.9 percent of Bank's voting shares not owned by
Grupo-associated companies are widely held, with no single individual or entity owning 5 percent or more of voting shares.
3. In assessing this standard, the Board considers, among other
factors, the extent to which the home country supervisors:
(i) Ensure that the bank has adequate procedures for monitoring and
controlling its activities worldwide;
(ii) Obtain information on the condition of the bank and its subsidiaries and offices through regular examination reports, audit
reports, or otherwise;
(iii) Obtain information on the dealings with and relationship between
the bank and its affiliates, both foreign and domestic;
(iv) Receive from the bank financial reports that are consolidated on a
worldwide basis or comparable information that permits analysis
of the bank's financial condition on a worldwide consolidated
basis;
(v) Evaluate prudential standards, such as capital adequacy and risk
asset exposure, on a worldwide basis.
These are indicia of comprehensive, consolidated supervision. No
single factor is essential, and other elements may inform the Board's
determination.

Legal Developments

authorities in its home country, the Board may nevertheless
approve an application by such foreign bank if:
(i) The appropriate authorities in the home country of the
foreign bank are actively working to establish arrangements for the consolidated supervision of such bank;
and
(ii) All other factors are consistent with approval
(12 U.S.C. §3105(d)(6)(A)).
In deciding whether to exercise its discretion to approve
an application under authority of this exception, the Board
shall also consider whether the foreign bank has adopted
and implemented procedures to combat money laundering
(12 U.S.C. §3105(d)(6)(B)). The Board also may take into
account whether the home country of the foreign bank is
developing a legal regime to address money laundering or
is participating in multilateral efforts to combat money
laundering (12 U.S.C. §3105(d)(6)(B)).
As noted above, Bank engages directly in the business of
banking outside the United States. Bank also has provided
the Board with information necessary to assess the application through submissions that address the relevant issues.
With respect to supervision by home country authorities,
the Board previously has determined, in connection with
an application involving another bank in Colombia, that
the bank's home country authorities were working to establish arrangements for the consolidated supervision of the
bank.4 Bank is supervised by the Colombia Superintendency of Banking on substantially the same terms and
conditions as that other bank.
The Colombian government has taken a number of steps
to combat money laundering. In the past decade, Colombia
has enacted legislation to prevent money laundering and
has established a regulatory infrastructure to assist this
effort. Colombia has established a Financial Information
and Analysis Unit in the Ministry of Finance, which is
responsible for gathering and centralizing information from
public and private entities in Colombia, as well as analyzing such information. The Prosecutor General's office has
established a unit to investigate and prosecute money laundering cases and forfeiture actions. In addition, the Superintendency has issued circulars that require financial institutions to establish systems for the prevention of money
laundering.
Colombia participates in international fora that address
the issues of asset forfeiture and the prevention of money
laundering. Colombia is a party to the 1988 U.N. Convention Against Illicit Traffic in Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances ("Convention"), and the United States has
certified that Colombia has taken adequate measures to
achieve full compliance with the goals and objectives of
the Convention. Colombia also has signed the U.N. Convention against Transnational Organized Crime and is a
member of the Organization of American States InterAmerican Drug Abuse Control Commission Experts Group
to Control Money Laundering. Colombia is not a member

235

of the Financial Action Task Force ("FATF"), although
FATF's recommendations have been taken into account by
Bank in developing its manuals, internal procedures, and
training courses.
Bank has taken measures to ensure compliance with
Colombian law and regulations, including implementing
policies and procedures related to "know-your-customer"
practices, suspicious transaction reporting, record keeping,
and employee training.5 An internal central compliance
unit monitors Bank's adherence to these policies and
procedures.
Based on all the facts of record, it has been determined
that Bank's home country authorities are actively working
to establish arrangements for the consolidated supervision
of Bank, and that considerations relating to the steps taken
by Bank and its home country to combat money laundering
are consistent with approval under this standard.
The additional standards set forth in the IBA (12 U.S.C.
§3105(d)(3)-(4); 12 C.F.R. 211.24(c)(2)) have also been
taken into account. The Superintendency has no objection
to the establishment of the proposed agency.
Bank must comply with the minimum capital standards
of the Basel Capital Accord ("Accord"), as implemented
by Colombia. Bank's capital is in excess of the minimum
levels that would be required by the Accord and is considered equivalent to the capital that would be required of a
U.S. banking organization. Managerial and other financial
resources of Bank are also considered consistent with
approval, and Bank appears to have the experience and
capacity to support the proposed agency. Bank has established controls and procedures for the proposed agency to
ensure compliance with U.S. law, as well as controls and
procedures for its worldwide operations generally.
With respect to access to information about the operations of Bank and its parents, the restrictions on disclosure
in relevant jurisdictions in which Bank and its parents
operate have been reviewed and communications with
relevant government authorities regarding access to information have been conducted. Bank and its parents have
committed to make available to the Board such information on the operations of Bank and any of its affiliates that
the Board deems necessary to determine and enforce compliance with the IBA, the BHC Act, and other applicable
federal law. To the extent that the provision of such information to the Board may be prohibited by law, Bank and
its parents have committed to cooperate with the Board to
obtain any necessary consents or waivers that might be
required from third parties for disclosure of such information. In addition, subject to certain conditions, the Superintendency may share information on Bank's operations with
other supervisors, including the Board. In light of these
commitments and other facts of record, and subject to the
condition described below, Bank has provided adequate
assurances of access to any necessary information that the
Board may request.

5. Bank's foreign bank subsidiaries have adopted the same policies
and procedures for the prevention of money laundering.

236

Federal Reserve Bulletin • May 2003

On the basis of all the facts of record, and subject to the
commitments made by Bank and its parents, as well as the
terms and conditions set forth in this order, Bank's application to establish an agency should be, and hereby is,
approved.6 Should any restrictions on access to information on the operations or activities of Bank and its affiliates
subsequently interfere with the Board's ability to obtain
information to determine and enforce compliance by Bank
or its affiliates with applicable federal statutes, the Board
may require or recommend termination of any of Bank's
direct or indirect activities in the United States. Approval
of this application also is specifically conditioned on compliance by Bank and its parents with the commitments
made in connection with this application and with the
conditions in this order.7 The commitments and conditions
referred to above are conditions imposed in writing in
connection with this decision and may be enforced in
proceedings under 12 U.S.C. §1818 against Bank and its
affiliates.
By order, approved pursuant to authority delegated by
the Board, effective March 27, 2003.
ROBERT DEV. FRIERSON

Deputy Secretary of the Board

DEPFA BANK pic
Dublin, Ireland
Order Approving Establishment of an Agency
DEPFA BANK pic ("Bank"), Dublin, Ireland, a foreign
bank within the meaning of the International Banking Act
("IBA"), has applied under section 7(d) of the IBA
(12 U.S.C. §3105(d)) to establish an agency in New York,
New York. The Foreign Bank Supervision Enhancement
Act of 1991, which amended the IBA, provides that a
foreign bank must obtain the approval of the Board to
establish an agency in the United States.
Notice of the application, affording interested persons
an opportunity to comment, has been published in a
newspaper of general circulation in New York, New York
(New York Post, October 3, 2002). The time for filing
comments has expired, and all comments have been
considered.

6. Approved by the Director of the Division of Banking Supervision and Regulation, with the concurrence of the General Counsel,
pursuant to authority delegated by the Board. See 12 C.F.R.
265.7(d)(12).
7. The Board's authority to approve the establishment of the proposed agency parallels the continuing authority of the State of Florida
to license offices of a foreign bank. The approval of this application
does not supplant the authority of the State of Florida, or its agent, the
Florida Department of Banking and Finance, to license the proposed
office of Bank in accordance with any terms or conditions that it may
impose.




Bank, with total assets of approximately $146 billion,
is the largest bank in Ireland.1 Bank was formed in 2002 as
part of a reorganization of the DEPFA Group. In that
reorganization, the group's public finance business was
separated from its real property business. Bank is the
parent company of the public finance business, which
includes DEPFA Deutsche Pfandbriefbank AG, Frankfurt,
Germany. DEPFA Holding Verwaltungsgesellschaft mBH
("DEPFA Holding"), Dusseldorf, Germany, owns
40.8 percent of Bank. DEPFA Holding also owns 40.8 percent of Aareal Bank AG, Wiesbaden, Germany, which took
over all the real property business formerly conducted by
members of the DEPFA Group. DEPFA Holding is an
investment vehicle for eight primarily financial institutions
in Germany, Switzerland, and France. No other shareholder owns more than 5 percent of the shares of Bank.
Bank is a qualifying foreign banking organization under
Regulation K.
Bank currently operates a U.S. nonbanking subsidiary,
DEPFA USA Inc., New York, New York, that provides
research and advisory services in the areas of economics,
banking, and capital markets.
Bank seeks to establish the New York agency to expand
the range of services offered and activities in the United
States. On establishment of the proposed agency, Bank
intends to liquidate DEPFA USA Inc. and transfer its assets
and business to the agency. In addition, the proposed
agency would provide a range of services to U.S. municipalities and government-sponsored entities.
In order to approve an application by a foreign bank
to establish an agency in the United States, the IBA and
Regulation K require the Board to determine that the
foreign bank applicant engages directly in the business of
banking outside the United States and has furnished to the
Board the information it needs to assess the application
adequately. The Board also shall take into account whether
the foreign bank and any foreign bank parent is subject to
comprehensive supervision or regulation on a consolidated
basis by its home country supervisor (12 U.S.C.
§ 3105(d)(2); 12 C.F.R. 211.24).2 The Board may also take
into account additional standards as set forth in the IBA

1. Asset data are as of June 30, 2002.
2. In assessing this standard, the Board considers, among other
factors, the extent to which the home country supervisors:
(i) Ensure that the bank has adequate procedures for monitoring and
controlling its activities worldwide;
(ii) Obtain information on the condition of the bank and its subsidiaries and offices through regular examination reports, audit
reports, or otherwise;
(iii) Obtain information on the dealings with and relationship between
the bank and its affiliates, both foreign and domestic;
(iv) Receive from the bank financial reports that are consolidated on a
worldwide basis or comparable information that permits analysis
of the bank's financial condition on a worldwide consolidated
basis;
(v) Evaluate prudential standards, such as capital adequacy and risk
asset exposure, on a worldwide basis. These are indicia of comprehensive, consolidated supervision. No single factor is essential, and other elements may inform the Board's determination.

Legal Developments

and Regulation K (12 U.S.C. §3105(d)(3)-(4); 12 C.F.R.
211.24(c)(2)-(3)).
As noted above, Bank engages directly in the business of
banking outside the United States. Bank also has provided
the Board with information necessary to assess the application through submissions that address the relevant issues.
With respect to supervision by home country authorities,
the Federal Reserve previously has determined, in connection with applications involving other banks in Ireland, that
those banks were subject to home country supervision on a
consolidated basis.3 Bank is supervised by the banking
regulatory authorities in Ireland on substantially the same
terms and conditions as those other banks. Based on all the
facts of record, it has been determined that Bank is subject
to comprehensive supervision on a consolidated basis by
its home country supervisor.
The Board has also taken into account the additional
standards set forth in section 7 of the IBA and Regulation K (see 12 U.S.C. §3105(d)(3)-(4); 12 C.F.R.
211.24(c)(2)-(3)). The home country supervisor of Bank
has no objection to the establishment of the proposed
agency.
Ireland's risk-based capital standards are consistent with
those established by the Basel Capital Accord. Bank's
capital is in excess of the minimum levels that would be
required by the Basel Capital Accord and is considered
equivalent to capital that would be required of a U.S.
banking organization. Managerial and other financial
resources of Bank also are considered consistent with
approval, and Bank appears to have the experience and
capacity to support the proposed agency. In addition, Bank
has established controls and procedures for the proposed
agency to ensure compliance with U.S. law, as well as
controls and procedures for its worldwide operations
generally.
Ireland is a member of the Financial Action Task Force
and subscribes to its recommendations on measures to
combat money laundering. In accordance with these recommendations, Ireland has enacted laws and developed
regulatory standards to deter money laundering. Money
laundering is illegal in Ireland, and financial institutions
are required to establish internal policies, procedures, and
systems for the detection and prevention of money laundering throughout their worldwide operations. Bank has policies and procedures to comply with these laws and regulations that are monitored by governmental entities
responsible for anti-money laundering compliance.
With respect to access to information about Bank's
operations, the Board has reviewed the restrictions on
disclosure in relevant jurisdictions in which Bank operates
and has communicated with relevant government authorities regarding access to information. Bank and its ultimate

Bank and any of its affiliates that the Board deems necessary to determine and enforce compliance with the IBA,
the Bank Holding Company Act, and other applicable
federal law. To the extent that the provision of such information to the Board may be prohibited by law or otherwise, Bank and DEPFA Holding have committed to cooperate with the Board to obtain any necessary consents or
waivers that might be required from third parties for disclosure of such information. In light of these commitments
and other facts of record, and subject to the condition

application also is specifically conditioned on compliance
by Bank with the commitments made in connection with
this application and with the conditions in this order.5 The
commitments and conditions referred to above are conditions imposed in writing by the Board in connection with

The Wakashio Bank, Limited
Tokyo, Japan
Order Approving Establishment of Branches
The Wakashio Bank, Limited, Tokyo, Japan ("Wakashio"),
a foreign bank within the meaning of the International
Banking Act ("IBA"), has applied under section 7(d) of
the IBA (12 U.S.C. §3105(d)) to establish branches in
Los Angeles and San Francisco, California, and New York,

4. Approved by the Director of the Division of Banking Supervision and Regulation, with the concurrence of the General Counsel,
pursuant to authority delegated by the Board.
5. The Board's authority to approve the establishment of the
proposed agency parallels the continuing authority of the State of
New York to license offices of a foreign bank. The Board's approval
of this application does not supplant the authority of the New York
State Banking Department to license the proposed agency of Bank in
accordance with any terms or conditions that it may impose.

238

Federal Reserve Bulletin • May 2003

New York.1 The Foreign Bank Supervision Enhancement
Act of 1991, which amended the IBA, provides that a
foreign bank must obtain the Board's approval to establish
a branch in the United States.
Notice of the application, affording interested persons an
opportunity to comment, has been published in a newspaper of general circulation in Los Angeles, California
(Los Angeles Times, January 21, 2003); San Francisco,
California (San Francisco Chronicle, January 21, 2003);
and New York, New York (New York Times, January 28,
2003). The time for filing comments has expired, and all
comments have been considered.2
Wakashio, with consolidated assets of approximately
$4 billion,3 is a community bank that serves individuals
and small businesses in the Tokyo metropolitan area.
Wakashio was a subsidiary of Sumitomo Mitsui Banking
Corporation ("SMBC"), also in Tokyo.4 As part of an
internal reorganization on January 17, 2003, Wakashio
became a direct subsidiary of Sumitomo Mitsui Financial
Group ("SMFG"), the top-tier holding company of
SMBC.5 SMBC plans to merge with and into Wakashio,
with Wakashio as the surviving entity.6
SMBC has three branches in the United States that offer
general commercial banking services for Japanese and
U.S. corporate customers. On the merger of SMBC into
Wakashio, New SMBC would acquire these branches.
The proposed branches would continue the operations
and activities of the former SMBC branches. The transaction confers some accounting and regulatory benefits in
Japan under standards applied by the Financial Services
Agency of Japan ("FSA"). No expansion or restructuring
of existing U.S. operations would result from the proposed
reorganization. In addition, the proposal would not materially affect the management of SMBC's operations, including its subsidiary insured depository institution, in the
United States. The corporate reorganization would be
effected through the exchange of shares. No debt would be
issued by Wakashio, SMBC, or any of its subsidiaries as
part of the transactions that would effect the reorganization. This transaction results in no substantive change in
the capital of SMBC.
In order to approve an application by a foreign bank to
establish branches in the United States, the IBA and Regulation K require the Board to determine that the foreign
bank applicant engages directly in the business of banking
outside of the United States and has furnished to the Board
the information it needs to assess the application ade1. The Board has separately approved Wakashio's application to
become a bank holding company with respect to Manufacturers Bank,
Los Angeles, California. See The Wakashio Bank, Limited (Order
dated March 14, 2003) ("Section 3 Order").
2. One comment was received. See Section 3 Order for a discussion of the concerns expressed by the commenter.
3. Asset data are as of September 30, 2002. Dollar amounts are
converted from Japanese yen at ¥121.65 = US $1.
4. SMBC, with total consolidated assets equivalent to $857.1 billion, ranks fourth among the world's commercial banks by assets.
5. SMFG was formed in December 2002.
6. Wakashio would be renamed Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation ("New SMBC") on consummation of the merger.




quately. The Board also shall take into account whether the
foreign bank and any foreign bank parent is subject to
comprehensive supervision or regulation on a consolidated
basis by its home country supervisor (12 U.S.C.
§3105(d)(2); 12 C.F.R. 211.24).7 The Board may also take
into account additional standards as set forth in the IBA
and Regulation K (12 U.S.C. §3105(d)(3)-(4); 12 C.F.R.
211.24(c)(2)).
As noted above, Wakashio engages directly in the business of banking outside the United States. Wakashio also
has provided the Board with information necessary to
assess the relevant issues in the application. The Board has
previously determined, in applications under the IBA and
Bank Holding Company Act ("BHCA"), that certain Japanese commercial banks were subject to comprehensive
consolidated supervision by their home country supervisor.8 In this case, the Board has determined that on
consummation of the transaction, New SMBC would be
supervised on substantially the same terms and conditions
as these banks.
Based on all the facts of record, the Board has determined that New SMBC would be subject to comprehensive
supervision on a consolidated basis by its home country
supervisor after consummation of the proposal.
The additional standards set forth in section 7 of the
IBA and Regulation K (see 12 U.S.C. §3105(d)(3)-(4);
12 C.F.R. 211.24(c)(2)) have also been taken into account.
The FSA has no objection to the establishment of the
proposed branches.
Japan has enacted laws, and the FSA has promulgated
implementing regulations, designed to prevent money laundering. The laws and regulations require financial institutions, including savings banks, to establish and implement
policies, procedures, and controls for preventing and
detecting money laundering and to report certain cash
transactions and suspicious transactions to appropriate
authorities. Compliance with applicable laws and regulations is monitored by the FSA and the institution's external

7. In assessing this standard, the Board considers, among other
factors, the extent to which the home country supervisors:
(i) Ensure that the bank has adequate procedures for monitoring and
controlling its activities worldwide;
(ii) Obtain information on the condition of the bank and its subsidiaries and offices through regular examination reports, audit
reports, or otherwise;
(iii) Obtain information on the dealings with and relationship between
the bank and its affiliates, both foreign and domestic;
(iv) Receive from the bank financial reports that are consolidated on a
worldwide basis or comparable information that permits analysis
of the bank's financial condition on a worldwide consolidated
basis;
(v) Evaluate prudential standards, such as capital adequacy and risk
asset exposure, on a worldwide basis. These are indicia of comprehensive, consolidated supervision. No single factor is essential, and other elements may inform the Board's determination.
8. See The Sumitomo Bank, Limited, 82 Federal Reserve Bulletin
369 (1996); Mizuho Holdings, Inc., 86 Federal Reserve Bulletin 776
(2000); UJF Holdings, Inc., 87 Federal Reserve Bulletin 270 (2001);
and Mitsubishi Tokyo Financial Group, Inc., 87 Federal Reserve
Bulletin 349 (2001).

auditors. Wakashio has policies and procedures to comply
with these laws and regulations.
Financial factors are considered consistent with approval
of this non-expansionary reorganization. Managerial
resources of Wakashio also are considered consistent with
approval, and Wakashio appears to have the experience
and capacity to support the proposed branches. In addition,
Wakashio has established controls and procedures for the
proposed branches to ensure compliance with U.S. law, as
well as controls and procedures for its worldwide operations generally.
With respect to access to information about Wakashio's
operations, the restrictions on disclosure in relevant jurisdictions in which Wakashio operates have been reviewed
and the relevant government authorities have been communicated with regarding access to information. Wakashio
has committed to make available to the Board such information on the operations of New SMBC and any of its
affiliates that the Board deems necessary to determine and
enforce compliance with the IBA, the BHCA, and other
applicable federal law. To the extent that the provision of
such information to the Board may be prohibited by law or
otherwise, Wakashio has committed to cooperate with the
Board to obtain any necessary consents or waivers that
might be required from third parties for disclosure of such
information. In addition, subject to certain conditions, the
FSA may share information on Wakashio's operations with
other supervisors, including the Board. In light of these
commitments and other facts of record, and subject to the
condition described below, the Board has determined that
Wakashio has provided adequate assurances of access to
any necessary information that the Board may request.
On the basis of all the facts of record, and subject to the
commitments made by Wakashio, and the terms and con-




239

ditions set forth in this order, Wakashio's application to
establish branches is hereby approved. Should any restrictions on access to information on the operations or activities of New SMBC and its affiliates subsequently interfere
with the Board's ability to obtain information to determine
and enforce compliance by New SMBC or its affiliates
with applicable federal statutes, the Board may require or
recommend termination of any of New SMBC's direct or
indirect activities in the United States. Approval of this
application also is specifically conditioned on compliance
by New SMBC with the commitments made in connection
with the application and with the conditions in this order.9
The commitments and conditions referred to above are
conditions imposed in writing by the Board in connection with this decision and may be enforced in proceedings under 12 U.S.C. §1818 against New SMBC and its
affiliates.
By order of the Board of Governors, effective March 14,
2003.
Voting for this action: Chairman Greenspan, Vice Chairman Ferguson, and Governors Gramlich, Bies, Olson, Bernanke, and Kohn.
ROBERT DEV. FRIERSON

Deputy Secretary of the Board

9. The authority to approve the establishment of the proposed
branches parallels the continuing authority of the States of California
and New York to license offices of a foreign bank. The approval of
this application does not supplant the authority of those states or their
agents, the California Department of Financial Institutions or the New
York State Banking Department ("Departments"), to license the proposed offices of New SMBC in accordance with any terms or conditions that the Departments may impose.

1. Unless otherwise noted, rates of change are calculated from average amounts outstanding during preceding month or quarter.
2. Figures incorporate adjustments for discontinuities, or "breaks," associated with regulatory changes in reserve requirements (See also table 1.20.)
3. The seasonally adjusted, break-adjusted monetary base consists of (I) seasonally
adjusted, break-adjusted total reserves (line 1), plus (2) the seasonally adjusted currency
component of the money stock, plus (3) (for all quarterly reporters on the "Report of
Transaction Accounts, Other Deposits and Vault Cash" and for all weekly reporters whose
vault cash exceeds their required reserves) the seasonally adjusted, break-adjusted difference
between current vault cash and the amount applied to satisfy current reserve requirements.
4. Composition of the money stock measures is as follows:
M l : (1) currency outside the U.S. Treasury, Federal Reserve Banks, and the vaults of
depository institutions, (2) travelers checks of nonbank issuers, (3) demand deposits at all
commercial banks other than those owed to depository institutions, the U.S. government, and
foreign banks and official institutions, less cash items in the process of collection and Federal
Reserve float, and (4) other checkable deposits (OCDs), consisting of negotiable order of
withdrawal (NOW) and automatic transfer service (ATS) accounts at depository institutions,
credit union share draft accounts, and demand deposits at thrift institutions. Seasonally
adjusted Ml is computed by summing currency, travelers checks, demand deposits, and
OCDs, each seasonally adjusted separately.
M2: Ml plus (1) savings (including MMDAs), (2) small-denomination time deposits (time
deposits—including retail RPs—in amounts of less than $100,000), and (3) balances in retail
money market mutual funds. Excludes individual retirement accounts (IRAs) and Keogh
balances at depository institutions and money market funds.
Seasonally adjusted M2 is calculated by summing savings deposits, small-denomination




time deposits, and retail money fund balances, each seasonally adjusted separately, and
adding this result to seasonally adjusted M1.
M3: M2 plus (1) large-denomination time deposits (in amounts of $100,000 or more), (2)
balances in institutional money funds, (3) RP liabilities (overnight and term) issued by all
depository institutions, and (4) eurodollars (overnight and term) held by U.S. residents at
foreign branches of U.S. banks worldwide and at all banking offices in the United Kingdom
and Canada. Excludes amounts held by depository institutions, the U.S. government, money
market funds, and foreign banks and official institutions. Seasonally adjusted M3 is calculated
by summing large time deposits, institutional money fund balances, RP liabilities, and
eurodollars, each seasonally adjusted separately, and adding this result to seasonally adjusted
M2.
5. Sum of (1) savings deposits (including MMDAs), (2) small time deposits, and (3) retail
money fund balances, each seasonally adjusted separately.
6. Sum of (1) large time deposits, (2) institutional money fund balances, (3) RP liabilities
(overnight and term) issued by depository institutions, and (4) eurodollars (overnight and
term) of U.S. addressees, each seasonally adjusted separately.
7. Small time deposits—including retail RPs—are those issued in amounts of less than
$100,000. All IRA and Keogh account balances at commercial banks and thrift institutions
are subtracted from small time deposits.
8. Large time deposits are those issued in amounts of $100,000 or more, excluding those
booked at international banking facilities.
9. Large time deposits at commercial banks less those held by money market funds,
depository institutions, the U.S. government, and foreign banks and official institutions.
10. Includes both overnight and term.

RESERVE REQUIREMENTS OF DEPOSITORY INSTITUTIONS 1
Requirement
Type of deposit

Net transaction accounts2
1 $0 million-$6 million 3
3 More than $42.1 million5

1. Required reserves must be held in the form of deposits with Federal Reserve Banks or
vault cash. Nonmember institutions may maintain reserve balances with a Federal Reserve
Bank indirectly, on a pass-through basis, with certain approved institutions. For previous
reserve requirements, see earlier editions of the Annual Report or the Federal Reserve
Bulletin. Under the Monetary Control Act of 1980, depository institutions include commercial
banks, savings banks, savings and loan associations, credit unions, agencies and branches of
foreign banks, and Edge Act corporations.
2. Transaction accounts include all deposits against which the account holder is permitted
to make withdrawals by negotiable or transferable instruments, payment orders of withdrawal, or telephone or preauthorized transfers for the purpose of making payments to third
persons or others. However, accounts subject to the rules that permit no more than six
preauthorized, automatic, or other transfers per month (of which no more than three may be
by check, draft, debit card, or similar order payable directly to third parties) are savings
deposits, not transaction accounts.
3. Under the Garn-St Germain Depository Institutions Act of 1982, the Board adjusts the
amount of reservable liabilities subject to a zero percent reserve requirement each year for the
succeeding calendar year by 80 percent of the percentage increase in the total reservable
liabilities of all depository institutions, measured on an annual basis as of June 30. No
corresponding adjustment is made in the event of a decrease. The exemption applies only to
accounts that would be subject to a 3 percent reserve requirement. Effective with the reserve
maintenance period beginning December 26, 2002, for depository institutions that report
weekly, and with the period beginning January 16, 2003, for institutions that report quarterly,
the exemption was raised from $5.7 million to $6.0 million.

4. The Monetary Control Act of 1980 requires that the amount of transaction accounts
against which the 3 percent reserve requirement applies be modified annually by 80 percent of
the percentage change in transaction accounts held by all depository institutions, determined
as of June 30 of each year. Effective with the reserve maintenance period beginning
December 26, 2002, for depository institutions that report weekly, and with the period
beginning January 16, 2003, for institutions that report quarterly, the amount was increased
from $41.3 million to $42.1 million.
5. The reserve requirement was reduced from 12 percent to 10 percent on April 2, 1992,
for institutions that report weekly, and on April 16, 1992, for institutions that report quarterly.
6. For institutions that report weekly, the reserve requirement on nonpersonal time deposits
with an original maturity of less than 1.5 years was reduced from 3 percent to 1.5 percent for
the maintenance period that began December 13, 1990, and to zero for the maintenance
period that began December 27, 1990. For institutions that report quarterly, the reserve
requirement on nonpersonal time deposits with an original maturity of less than 1.5 years was
reduced from 3 percent to zero on January 17, 1991.
The reserve requirement on nonpersonal time deposits with an original maturity of 1.5
years or more has been zero since October 6, 1983.
7. The reserve requirement on eurocurrency liabilities was reduced from 3 percent to zero
in the same manner and on the same dates as the reserve requirement on nonpersonal time
deposits with an original maturity of less than 1.5 years (see note 5).

Borrowings from the Federal Reserve

1. Latest monthly and biweekly figures are available from the Board's H.3 (502) weekly
statistical release. Historical data starting in 1959 and estimates of the effect on required
reserves of changes in reserve requirements are available from the Money and Reserves
Projections Section, Division of Monetary Affairs, Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System, Washington, DC 20551.
2. Figures reflect adjustments for discontinuities, or "breaks," associated with regulatory
changes in reserve requirements. (See also table 1.10.)
3. Seasonally adjusted, break-adjusted total reserves equal seasonally adjusted, breakadjusted required reserves (line 4) plus excess reserves (line 16).
4. Seasonally adjusted, break-adjusted nonborrowed reserves equal seasonally adjusted,
break-adjusted total reserves (line 1) less total borrowings of depository institutions from the
Federal Reserve (line 17).
5. The seasonally adjusted, break-adjusted monetary base consists of (1) seasonally
adjusted, break-adjusted total reserves (line 1), plus (2) the seasonally adjusted currency
component of the money stock, plus (3) (for all quarterly reporters on the "Report of
Transaction Accounts, Other Deposits and Vault Cash" and for all those weekly reporters
whose vault cash exceeds their required reserves) the seasonally adjusted, break-adjusted
difference between current vault cash and the amount applied to satisfy current reserve
requirements.
6. Break-adjusted total reserves equal break-adjusted required reserves (line 9) plus excess
reserves (line 16).
7. To adjust required reserves for discontinuities that are due to regulatory changes in
reserve requirements, a multiplicative procedure is used to estimate what required reserves




would have been in past periods had current reserve requirements been in effect. Breakadjusted required reserves include required reserves against transactions deposits and nonpersonal time and savings deposits (but not reservable nondeposit liabilities).
8. The break-adjusted monetary base equals (1) break-adjusted total reserves (line 6), plus
(2) the (unadjusted) currency component of the money stock, plus (3) (for all quarterly
reporters on the "Report of Transaction Accounts, Other Deposits and Vault Cash" and for all
those weekly reporters whose vault cash exceeds their required reserves) the break-adjusted
difference between current vault cash and the amount applied to satisfy current reserve
requirements.
9. Reflects actual reserve requirements, including those on nondeposit liabilities, with no
adjustments to eliminate the effects of discontinuities associated with regulatory changes in
reserve requirements.
10. Reserve balances with Federal Reserve Banks plus vault cash used to satisfy reserve
requirements.
11. The monetary base, not break-adjusted and not seasonally adjusted, consists of (1) total
reserves (line 11), plus (2) required clearing balances and adjustments to compensate for float
at Federal Reserve Banks, plus (3) the currency component of the money stock, plus (4) (for
all quarterly reporters on the "Report of Transaction Accounts, Other Deposits and Vault
Cash" and for all those weekly reporters whose vault cash exceeds their required reserves) the
difference between current vault cash and the amount applied to satisfy current reserve
requirements. Since February 1984, currency and vault cash figures have been measured over
the computation periods ending on Mondays.
12. Unadjusted total reserves (line 11) less unadjusted required reserves (line 14).

NOTES TO TABLE 1.21
1. Latest monthly and weekly figures are available from the Board's H.6 (508) weekly
statistical release. Historical data starting in 1959 are available from the Money and Reserves
Projections Section, Division of Monetary Affairs, Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System, Washington, DC 20551.
2. Composition of the money stock measures is as follows:
M l : (1) currency outside the U.S. Treasury, Federal Reserve Banks, and the vaults of
depository institutions, (2) travelers checks of nonbank issuers, (3) demand deposits at all
commercial banks other than those owed to depository institutions, the U.S. government, and
foreign banks and official institutions, less cash items in the process of collection and Federal
Reserve float, and (4) other checkable deposits (OCDs), consisting of negotiable order of
withdrawal (NOW) and automatic transfer service (ATS) accounts at depository institutions,
credit union share draft accounts, and demand deposits at thrift institutions. Seasonally
adjusted Ml is computed by summing currency, travelers checks, demand deposits, and
OCDs, each seasonally adjusted separately.
M2: Ml plus (1) savings deposits (including MMDAs), (2) small-denomination time
deposits (time deposits—including retail RPs—in amounts of less than $100,000), and (3)
balances in retail money market mutual funds. Excludes individual retirement accounts
(IRAs) and Keogh balances at depository institutions and money market funds. Seasonally
adjusted M2 is calculated by summing savings deposits, small-denomination time deposits,
and retail money fund balances, each seasonally adjusted separately, and adding this result to
seasonally adjusted M1.
M3: M2 plus (1) large-denomination time deposits (in amounts of $100,000 or more)
issued by all depository institutions, (2) balances in institutional money funds, (3) RP
liabilities (overnight and term) issued by all depository institutions, and (4) eurodollars
(overnight and term) held by U.S. residents at foreign branches of U.S. banks worldwide and
at all banking offices in the United Kingdom and Canada. Excludes amounts held by deposit-




ory institutions, the U.S. government, money market funds, and foreign banks and official
institutions. Seasonally adjusted M3 is calculated by summing large time deposits, institutional money fund balances, RP liabilities, and eurodollars, each seasonally adjusted separately, and adding this result to seasonally adjusted M2.
3. Currency outside the U.S. Treasury, Federal Reserve Banks, and vaults of depository
institutions.
4. Outstanding amount of U.S. dollar-denominated travelers checks of nonbank issuers.
Travelers checks issued by depository institutions are included in demand deposits.
5. Demand deposits at commercial banks and foreign-related institutions other than those
owed to depository institutions, the U.S. government, and foreign banks and official institutions, less cash items in the process of collection and Federal Reserve float.
6. Consists of NOW and ATS account balances at all depository institutions, credit union
share draft account balances, and demand deposits at thrift institutions.
7. Sum of (1) savings deposits (including MMDAs), (2) small time deposits, and (3) retail
money fund balances.
8. Sum of (1) large time deposits, (2) institutional money fund balances, (3) RP liabilities
(overnight and term) issued by depository institutions, and (4) eurodollars (overnight and
term) of U.S. addressees.
9. Small time deposits—including retail RPs—are those issued in amounts of less than
$100,000. All IRAs and Keogh accounts at commercial banks and thrift institutions are
subtracted from small time deposits.
10. Large time deposits are those issued in amounts of $100,000 or more, excluding those
booked at international banking facilities.
11. Large time deposits at commercial banks less those held by money market funds,
depository institutions, the U.S. government, and foreign banks and official institutions.
12. Includes both overnight and term.

NOTE. Tables 1.26, 1.27, and 1.28 have been revised to reflect changes in the Board's H.8
statistical release, "Assets and Liabilities of Commercial Banks in the United States." Table
1.27, "Assets and Liabilities of Large Weekly Reporting Commercial Banks," and table 1.28,
"Large Weekly Reporting U.S. Branches and Agencies of Foreign Banks," are no longer
being published in the Bulletin. Instead, abbreviated balance sheets for both large and small
domestically chartered banks have been included in table 1.26, parts C and D. Data are both
merger-adjusted and break-adjusted. In addition, data from large weekly reporting U.S.
branches and agencies of foreign banks have been replaced by balance sheet estimates of all
foreign-related institutions and are included in table 1.26, part E. These data are breakadjusted.
The not-seasonally-adjusted data for all tables now contain additional balance sheet items,
which were available as of October 2, 1996.
1. Covers the following types of institutions in the fifty states and the District of Columbia:
domestically chartered commercial banks that submit a weekly report of condition (large
domestic); other domestically chartered commercial banks (small domestic); branches and
agencies of foreign banks, and Edge Act and agreement corporations (foreign-related institutions). Excludes International Banking Facilities. Data are Wednesday values or pro rata
averages of Wednesday values. Large domestic banks constitute a universe; data for small
domestic banks and foreign-related institutions are estimates based on weekly samples and on
quarter-end condition reports. Data are adjusted for breaks caused by reclassifications of
assets and liabilities.
The data for large and small domestic banks presented on pp. A17-19 are adjusted to
remove the estimated effects of mergers between these two groups. The adjustment for
mergers changes past levels to make them comparable with current levels. Estimated
quantities of balance sheet items acquired in mergers are removed from past data for the bank
group that contained the acquired bank and put into past data for the group containing the




acquiring bank. Balance sheet data for acquired banks are obtained from Call Reports, and a
ratio procedure is used to adjust past levels.
2. Excludes federal funds sold to, reverse RPs with, and loans made to commercial banks
in the United States, all of which are included in "Interbank loans."
3. Consists of reverse RPs with brokers and dealers and loans to purchase and carry
securities.
4. Includes vault cash, cash items in process of collection, balances due from depository
institutions, and balances due from Federal Reserve Banks.
5. Excludes the due-from position with related foreign offices, which is included in "Net
due to related foreign offices."
6. Excludes unearned income, reserves for losses on loans and leases, and reserves for
transfer risk. Loans are reported gross of these items.
7. This balancing item is not intended as a measure of equity capital for use in capital
adequacy analysis. On a seasonally adjusted basis, this item reflects any differences in the
seasonal patterns estimated for total assets and total liabilities.
8. Fair value of derivative contracts (interest rate, foreign exchange rate, other commodity
and equity contracts) in a gain/loss position, as determined under FASB Interpretation No. 39.
9. Includes mortgage-backed securities issued by U.S. government agencies, U.S.
government-sponsored enterprises, and private entities.
10. Difference between fair value and historical cost for securities classified as availablefor-sale under FASB Statement No. 115. Data are reported net of tax effects. Data shown are
restated to include an estimate of these tax effects.
11. Mainly commercial and industrial loans but also includes an unknown amount of credit
extended to other than nonfinancial businesses.
12. Total amount outstanding.

1. In July 1976 a financial group, composed of banks and insurance companies, was added
to the group of stocks on which the index is based. The index is now based on 400 industrial
stocks (formerly 425), 20 transportation (formerly 15 rail), 40 public utility (formerly 60), and
40 financial.
2. On July 5, 1983, the American Stock Exchange rebased its index, effectively cutting
previous readings in half.
3. Since July 1983, under the revised Regulation T, margin credit at broker-dealers has
included credit extended against stocks, convertible bonds, stocks acquired through the
exercise of subscription rights, corporate bonds, and government securities. Separate reporting of data for margin stocks, convertible bonds, and subscription issues was discontinued in
April 1984.
4. Free credit balances are amounts in accounts with no unfulfilled commitments to
brokers and are subject to withdrawal by customers on demand.
5. Series initiated in June 1984.




6. Margin requirements, stated in regulations adopted by the Board of Governors pursuant
to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, limit the amount of credit that can be used to
purchase and carry "margin securities" (as defined in the regulations) when such credit is
collateralized by securities. Margin requirements on securities are the difference between the
market value (100 percent) and the maximum loan value of collateral as prescribed by the
Board. Regulation T was adopted effective Oct. 15, 1934; Regulation U, effective May 1,
1936; Regulation G, effective Mar. 11, 1968; and Regulation X, effective Nov. 1, 1971.
On Jan. 1, 1977, the Board of Governors for the first time established in Regulation T the
initial margin required for writing options on securities, setting it at 30 percent of the current
market value of the stock underlying the option. On Sept. 30, 1985, the Board changed the
required initial margin, allowing it to be the same as the option maintenance margin required
by the appropriate exchange or self-regulatory organization; such maintenance margin rules
must be approved by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

NOTE. Major changes in the report form filed by primary dealers induced a break in the
dealer data series as of the week ending July 4, 2001. Current weekly data may be found at the
Federal Reserve Bank of New York web site (http:www.newyorkfed.org/pihome/statistics)
under the Primary Dealer heading.
1. The figures represent purchases and sales in the market by the primary U.S. government
securities dealers reporting to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. Outright transactions
include all U.S. government, federal agency, government-sponsored enterprise, mortgage-

backed, and corporate securities scheduled for immediate and forward delivery, as well as all
U.S. government securities traded on a when-issued basis between the announcement and
issue date. Data do not include transactions under repurchase and reverse repurchase (resale)
agreements. Averages are based on the number of trading days in the week.
2. Outright Treasury inflation-indexed securities (TIIS) transactions are reported at principal value, excluding accrued interest, where principal value reflects the original issuance par
amount (unadjusted for inflation) times the price times the index ratio.

NOTE. Major changes in the report form filed by primary dealers included a break in many
series as of the week ending July 4, 2001. Current weekly data may be found at the Federal
Reserve Bank of New York web site (http://www.newyorkfed.org/pihome/statistics) under the
Primary Dealer heading.
1. Data for positions and financing are obtained from reports submitted to the Federal
Reserve Bank of New York by the U.S. government securities dealers on its published list of
primary dealers. Weekly figures are close-of-business Wednesday data. Positions for calendar
days of the report week are assumed to be constant. Monthly averages are based on the
number of calendar days in the month.




2. Net outright positions include all U.S. government, federal agency, governmentsponsored enterprise, mortgage-backed, and corporate securities scheduled for immediate and
forward delivery, as well as U.S. government securities traded on a when-issued basis
between the announcement and issue date.
3. Figures cover financing U.S. government, federal agency, government-sponsored enterprise, mortgage-backed, and corporate securities. Financing transactions for Treasury
inflation-indexed securities (TIIS) are reported in actual funds paid or received, except for
pledged securities. TIIS that are issued as pledged securities are reported at par value, which
is the value of the security at original issuance (unadjusted for inflation).

1. Consists of mortgages assumed by the Defense Department between 1957 and 1963
under family housing and homeowners assistance programs.
2. Includes participation certificates reclassified as debt beginning Oct. 1, 1976.
3. On-budget since Sept. 30, 1976.
4. Consists of debentures issued in payment of Federal Housing Administration insurance
claims. Once issued, these securities may be sold privately on the securities market.
5. Certificates of participation issued before fiscal year 1969 by the Government National
Mortgage Association acting as trustee for the Farmers Home Administration; the Department
of Health, Education, and Welfare; the Department of Housing and Urban Development; the
Small Business Administration; and the Veterans Administration.
6. Off-budget.
7. Includes outstanding noncontingent liabilities: notes, bonds, and debentures. Includes
Federal Agriculture Mortgage Corporation; therefore, details do not sum to total. Some data
are estimated.
8. Excludes borrowing by the Farm Credit Financial Assistance Corporation, which is
shown on line 17.
9. Before late 1982, the association obtained financing through the Federal Financing Bank
(FFB). Borrowing excludes that obtained from the FFB, which is shown on line 22.




10. The Financing Corporation, established in August 1987 to recapitalize the Federal
Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation, undertook its first borrowing in October 1987.
11. The Farm Credit Financial Assistance Corporation, established in January 1988 to
provide assistance to the Farm Credit System, undertook its first borrowing in July 1988.
12. The Resolution Funding Corporation, established by the Financial Institutions
Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989, undertook its first borrowing in October
1989.
13. The FFB, which began operations in 1974, is authorized to purchase or sell obligations
issued, sold, or guaranteed by other federal agencies. Because FFB incurs debt solely for the
purpose of lending to other agencies, its debt is not included in the main portion of the table to
avoid double counting.
14. Includes FFB purchases of agency assets and guaranteed loans; the latter are loans
guaranteed by numerous agencies, with the amounts guaranteed by any one agency generally
being small. The Farmers Home Administration entry consists exclusively of agency assets,
whereas the Rural Electrification Administration entry consists of both agency assets and
guaranteed loans.

NOTE. This table has been revised to incorporate several changes resulting from the
benchmarking of finance company receivables to the June 1996 Survey of Finance Companies. In that benchmark survey, and in the monthly surveys that have followed, more detailed
breakdowns have been obtained for some components. In addition, previously unavailable
data on securitized real estate loans are now included in this table. The new information has
resulted in some reclassification of receivables among the three major categories (consumer,
real estate, and business) and in discontinuities in some component series between May and
June 1996.
Includes finance company subsidiaries of bank holding companies but not of retailers and
banks. Data in this table also appear in the Board's G.20 (422) monthly statistical release. For
ordering address, see inside front cover.
I. Owned receivables are those carried on the balance sheet of the institution. Managed
receivables are outstanding balances of pools upon which securities have been issued; these
balances are no longer carried on the balance sheets of the loan originator. Data are shown




before deductions for unearned income and losses. Components may not sum to totals
because of rounding.
2. Excludes revolving credit reported as held by depository institutions that are subsidiaries of finance companies.
3. Includes personal cash loans, mobile home loans, and loans to purchase other types of
consumer goods, such as appliances, apparel, boats, and recreation vehicles.
4. Outstanding balances of pools upon which securities have been issued; these balances
are no longer carried on the balance sheets of the loan originator.
5. Credit arising from transactions between manufacturers and dealers, that is, floor plan
financing.
6. Includes loans on commercial accounts receivable, factored commercial accounts, and
receivable dealer capital; small loans used primarily for business or farm purposes; and
wholesale and lease paper for mobile homes, campers, and travel trailers.

Note. The statistics in the G.17 release cover output, capacity, and capacity utilization in the
industrial sector, which the Federal Reserve defines are manufacturing, mining, and electric
and gas utilities. Manufacturing consists of those industries included in the North American
Industry Classification System, or NAICS, manufacturing plus those industries—logging and
newspaper, periodical, book, and directory publishing—that have traditionally been considered manufacturing and included in the industrial sector.
1. Data in this table also appear in the Board's G.17 (419) monthly statistical release. The




data are also available on the Board's web site http://www.federalreserve.gov/releases/gl7.
The latest historical revision of the industrial production index and the capacity utilization
rates was released in December 2002. The recent annual revision is described in the April
2003 issue of the Bulletin.
2. Capacity utilization is calculated as the ratio of the Federal Reserve's seasonally
adjusted index of industrial production to the corresponding index of capacity.
3. Monthly highs, 1978-80; monthly lows, 1982.
4. Monthly highs, 1988-89; monthly lows, 1990-91.

Note. The statistics in the G. 17 release cover output, capacity, and capacity utilization in the
industrial sector, which the Federal Reserve defines are manufacturing, mining, and electric
and gas utilities. Manufacturing consists of those industries included in the North American
Industry Classification System, or NAICS, manufacturing plus those industries—logging and
newspaper, periodical, book, and directory publishing—that have traditionally been considered manufacturing and included in the industrial sector.




1. Data in this table appear in the Board's G.17 (419) monthly statistical release. The data
are also available on the Board's web site http://www.federalreserve.gov/releases/gl7. The
latest historical revision of the industrial production index and the capacity utilization rates
was released in December 2002. The recent annual revision is described in the April 2003
issue of the Bulletin.

4. Starting with the March 2003 Bulletin, revised index values resulting from the periodic
revision of data that underlie the calculated trade weights are reported. For more information
on the indexes of the foreign exchange value of the dollar, see Federal Reserve Bulletin, vol.
84 (October 1998), pp. 811-818.
5. Weighted average of the foreign exchange value of the U.S. dollar against the currencies
of a broad group of U.S. trading partners. The weight for each currency is computed as an
average of U.S. bilateral import shares from and export shares to the issuing country and of a
measure of the importance to U.S. exporters of that country's trade in third country markets.
6. Weighted average of the foreign exchange value of the U.S. dollar against a subset of
broad index currencies that circulate widely outside the country of issue. The weight for each
currency is its broad index weight scaled so that the weights of the subset of currencies in the
index sum to one.
7. Weighted average of the foreign exchange value of the U.S. dollar against a subset of
broad index currencies that do not circulate widely outside the country of issue. The weight
for each currency is its broad index weight scaled so that the weights of the subset of
currencies in the index sum to one.

NOTE. The notation "n.a." indicates the lesser detail available from banks that do not have
foreign offices, the inapplicability of certain items to banks that have only domestic offices, or
the absence of detail on a fully consolidated basis for banks that have foreign offices.
1. All transactions between domestic and foreign offices of a bank are reported in "net due
from" and "net due to" lines. All other lines represent transactions with parties other than the
domestic and foreign offices of each bank. Because these intra-office transactions are nullified
by consolidation, total assets and total liabilities for the entire bank may not equal the sum of
assets and liabilities, respectively, of the domestic and foreign offices.

NOTES TO TABLE 4.23
NOTE. The Survey of Terms of Business Lending collects data on gross loan extensions
made during the first full business week in the mid-month of each quarter. The authorized
panel size for the survey is 348 domestically chartered commercial banks and 50 U.S.
branches and agencies of foreign banks. The sample data are used to estimate the terms of
loans extended during that week at all domestic commercial banks and all U.S. branches and
agencies of foreign banks. Note that the terms on loans extended during the survey week may
differ from those extended during other weeks of the quarter. The estimates reported here are
not intended to measure the average terms on all business loans in bank portfolios.
1. As of March 31, 2001, assets of the large banks were at least $4 billion. Median total
assets for all insured banks were roughly $80 million. Assets at all U.S. branches and agencies
averaged $2.7 billion.
2. Effective (compounded) annual interest rates are calculated from the stated rate and
other terms of the loans and weighted by loan amount. The standard error of the loan rate for
all commercial and industrial loans in the current survey (line 1, column 1) is 0.10 percentage
point. The chances are about two out of three that the average rate shown would differ by less
than this amount from the average rate that would be found by a complete survey of the
universe of all banks.
3. Average maturities are weighted by loan amount and exclude loans with no stated
maturities.
4. The most common base pricing rate is that used to price the largest dollar volume of
loans. Base pricing rates include the prime rate (sometimes referred to as a bank's "base" or
"reference" rate); the federal funds rate; domestic money market rates other than the prime
rate and the federal funds rate; foreign money market rates; and other base rates not included
in the foregoing classifications.




5. A complete description of these risk categories is available from the Banking Analysis
Section, Mail Stop 81, Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, Washington, DC
20551. The category "Moderate risk" includes the average loan, under average economic
conditions, at the typical lender. The category "Other" includes loans rated "acceptable" as
well as special mention or classified loans. The weighted-average risk rating published for
loans in rows 31-39 are calculated by assigning a value of " 1 " to minimal risk loans; " 2 " to
low risk loans; " 3 " to moderate risk loans, " 4 " to acceptable risk loans; and " 5 " to special
mention and classified loans. These values are weighted by loan amount and exclude loans
with no risk rating. Some of the loans in lines 1,6, 11, 16, 21, 26, and 31-39 are not rated for
risk.
6. The maturity/repricing interval measures the period from the date the loan is made until
it first may reprice or it matures. For floating-rate loans that are subject to repricing at any
time—such as many prime-based loans—the maturity/repricing interval is zero. For floatingrate loans that have a scheduled repricing interval, the maturity/repricing interval measures
the number of days between the date the loan is made and the date on which it is next
scheduled to reprice. For loans having rates that remain fixed until the loan matures
(fixed-rate loans), the matuirty/repricing interval measures the number of days between the
date the loan is made and the date on which it matures. Loans that reprice daily mature or
reprice on the business day after they are made. Owing to weekends and holidays, such loans
may have maturity/repricing intervals in excess of one day; such loans are not included in the
"2 to 30 day" category.
7. For the current survey, the average reported prime rate, weighted by the amount of loans
priced relative to a prime base rate, was 4.31 percent for all banks, 4.25 percent for large
domestic banks, 4.55 percent for small domestic banks, and 4.27 percent for U.S. branches
and agencies of foreign banks.

1. Data are aggregates of categories reported on the quarterly form FFIEC 002, "Report of
Assets and Liabilities of U.S. Branches and Agencies of Foreign Banks." The form was first
used for reporting data as of June 30, 1980, and was revised as of December 31, 1985. From
November 1972 through May 1980, U.S. branches and agencies of foreign banks had filed a
monthly FR 886a report. Aggregate data from that report were available through the Federal
Reserve monthly statistical release G. 11, last issued on July 10, 1980. Data in this table and in
the G. 11 tables are not strictly comparable because of differences in reporting panels and in
definitions of balance sheet items.
2. Includes the District of Columbia.
3. Effective December 1981, the Federal Reserve Board amended Regulations D and Q to
permit banking offices located in the United States to operate international banking facilities
(IBFs). Since December 31, 1985, data for IBFs have been reported in a separate column.
These data are either included in or excluded from the total columns as indicated in the
headings. The notation "n.a." indicates that no IBF data have been reported for that item,

either because the item is not an eligible IBF asset or liability or because that level of detail is
not reported for IBFs. From December 1981 through September 1985, IBF data were
included in all applicable items reported.
4. Total assets and total liabilities include net balances, if any, due from or owed to related
banking institutions in the United States and in foreign countries (see note 5). On the former
monthly branch and agency report, available through the G. 11 monthly statistical release,
gross balances were included in total assets and total liabilities. Therefore, total asset and total
liability figures in this table are not comparable to those in the G. 11 tables.
5. Related depository institutions includes the foreign head office and other U.S. and
foreign branches and agencies of a bank, a bank's parent holding company, and majorityowned banking subsidiaries of the bank and of its parent holding company (including
subsidiaries owned both directly and indirectly).
6. In some cases, two or more offices of a foreign bank within the same metropolitan area
file a consolidated report.

NOTE

The Federal Reserve officially identifies Districts by number and Reserve Bank city (shown on both pages) and by
letter (shown on the facing page).
In the 12th District, the Seattle Branch serves Alaska,
and the San Francisco Bank serves Hawaii.
The System serves commonwealths and territories as
follows: the New York Bank serves the Commonwealth



of Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands; the San Francisco Bank serves American Samoa, Guam, and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands. The Board of
Governors revised the branch boundaries of the System
most recently in February 1996.
