1. Unused commitments are the amounts still available for lending under official promises to lend that are expressly conveyed to the bank's
customers orally or in writing, usually in the form of a formally executed
agreement signed by one of the bank's officers.
2. Commitments for term loans are those for loans with an original
maturity of more than one year.
3. Revolving credits are commitment agreements whereby the borrower
may draw and repay loans at will with no repayment penalty and under
which the commitment rebounds by an equal amount after a takedown
has been repaid.
4. Other commitments are expressions of willingness to lend, other
than for term loans and revolving credits, that are made known to the customer and are characterized by detailed formal agreements specifying
the terms and conditions under which a loan is to be made.
5. Confirmed lines of credit represent general expressions of willingness to lend, other than for term loans or revolving credits, that are made
known to the customer but are not characterized by detailed formal agreements specifying the terms and conditions under which a loan is to be
made.
NOTE: Included in this series are 121 weekly reporting banks accounting, as of year end 1982, for 58 percent of all commercial and industrial
loans made at U.S. offices of all domestically chartered commercial banks.



*Bank reclassifcations of unused loan commitments produced a break
in series in June 1983. In June 1983, commitments to C&l firms were lowered by $3.0 billion. The correction of commitments to C&l firms included
a drop in term loan commitments of $0.3 billion, an increase of $2.5 billion in revolving credit commitments, and a decline of $5.3 billion in other
commitments, respectively. Revisions to back data are not available.
* *A merger between a reporting bank and a nonreporting bank caused
a break in series in January 1984. Unused C&l commitments were increased by $0.5 billion. The increase in unused C&l commitments was
concentrated in confirmed lines, which increased $0.4 billion. Revisions
to back data are not available.
Individual items may not add to totals due to rounding.

1. Loans made under commitments are outstanding loans to commercial and industrial firms, less repayments of principal, made under commitments currently or previously in force.
2. Term loans are loans with an original maturity of more than 1 year.
3. Loans made under revolving credits are loans under agreements
whereby the borrower may draw down and repay loans at will with no
repayment penalty and under which the commitment rebounds by an equal
amount after a takedown has been repaid.
4. Loans made under other commitments are loans made under expressions of willingness to lend, other than for term loans and revolving
credits, that are made known to the customer and are characterized by
detailed formal agreements specifying the terms and conditions under
which a loan is to be made.
5. Loans made under confirmed lines of credit are loans made under
general expressions of willingness to lend, other than for term loans or
revolving credits, that are made known to the customer but are not characterized by detailed formal agreements specifying the terms and conditions under which a loan is to be made.
NOTE: Included in this series are 121 weekly reporting banks accounting, as of year end 1982, for 58 percent of all commercial and industrial
loans made at U.S. offices of all domestically chartered commercial banks.




*June 1983 data reflect breaks in series owing to bank reclassifications
of outstanding loans. In June 1983, loans to commercial and industrial
firms were lowered by $1.6 billion. The correction of outstanding commercial and industrial loans lowered term loans by $0.3 billion, raised
revolving credit loans by $1.5 billion, and reduced other loans by 2.8 billion. Revisions to back data are not available.
* * A merger between a reporting bank and a nonreporting bank caused
a break in series in January 1984. Outstanding C&l loans made under commitments were increased by $0.2 billion. The increase in outstanding loans
was concentrated in confirmed lines, which increased $0.2 billion. Revisions to back data are not available.
