awe Other data derived from mortgage debt outstanding as reported separately by National Assn. of Mutual Savings Banks. Federal Home Loan
Bank Board, Institute of Life Insurance and, through August 1968. the Federal National Mortgage Association, and thereafter by FNMA and the
Government National Mortgage Association. Data for mutual savings banks and for Life Insurance companies may differ somewhat from those derived fromregularquarterly series because of minor conceptual differences for which adjustments are not made in the monthly series. Altogether
these groups accounted for 83 per cent of the net increase estimated for all holders in 1974.

January 1972 data reflect activity in limited amount of conventional mortgages.

Derived from data on mortgage debt outstanding from Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, Federal Home Loan Bank Board, Institute of Life
Insurance, National Association of Mutual Savings Banks, Departments of Commerce and Agriculture, Federal National Mortgage Association,
Federal Housing Administration, Veterans Administration and Comptroller of the Currency. Separation of nonfarm mortgage debt by type of
property, where not available, and interpolations and extrapolations, where required, estimated mainly by Federal Reserve.

May differ somewhat from related flow of funds series mainly because of more aggregative type of seasonal adjustment.

Residential mortgage debt includes nonfarm only and is sum of 1 to 4- family and multifamily mortgage d e b t .
