FEDERAL RESERVE statistical release
For Release at
4:30 P.M. EDT
March 19, 2020
The Board's H.4.1 statistical release, "Factors Affecting Reserve Balances of Depository
Institutions and Condition Statement of Federal Reserve Banks," has been modified to
consolidate certain lines on table 5. Modifications include the consolidation of amounts
previously reported as “Loans,” which includes discount window borrowing, into the line
“Securities, unamortized premiums and discounts, repurchase agreements, and loans.” This
modification supports the Federal Reserve’s goal, expressed in its statement on March 15, 2020,
of encouraging depository institutions to use the discount window to help meet demands for
credit from households and businesses, including needs related to the spread of the coronavirus.1
More detailed information about specific components is available on tables 1 and 4.

Securities include outright holdings of U.S. Treasury securities, federal agency debt securities, and mortgage-backed securities, including securities lent to dealers under the overnight securities
lending facility; refer to table 1A. Mortgage-backed securities are guaranteed by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and Ginnie Mae. Unamortized premiums and discounts are the differences between the
purchase price and the face value of the securities that have not been amortized. For U.S. Treasury securities, federal agency debt securities, and mortgage-backed securities, amortization is on
an effective-interest basis. Repurchase agreements reflect the cash value of agreements, which are collateralized by U.S. Treasury and federal agency securities.
Dollar value of foreign currency held under these agreements valued at the exchange rate to be used when the foreign currency is returned to the foreign central bank. This exchange rate
equals the market exchange rate used when the foreign currency was acquired from the foreign central bank.
Revalued daily at current foreign currency exchange rates.
Includes items in process of collection, bank premises, accrued interest (which represents the daily accumulation of interest earned), and other accounts receivable. Also includes Net portfolio
holdings of Maiden Lane LLC; refer to the note on consolidation for additional information.
Cash value of agreements, which are collateralized by U.S. Treasury securities, federal agency debt securities, and mortgage-backed securities.
Includes deposits held at the Reserve Banks by international and multilateral organizations, government-sponsored enterprises, designated financial market utilities, and deposits held by
depository institutions in joint accounts in connection with their participation in certain private-sector payment arrangements. Also includes certain deposit accounts other than the U.S. Treasury,
General Account, for services provided by the Reserve Banks as fiscal agents of the United States.
Represents the estimated weekly remittances due to U.S. Treasury. The amounts on this line represent the residual net earnings that the Federal Reserve Banks remit to the U.S. Treasury after
providing for the costs of operations, payment of dividends, and the amount necessary to maintain a $6.825 billion surplus.

Note on consolidation:

On June 26, 2008, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (FRBNY) extended a loan to Maiden Lane LLC (ML) under the authority of section 13(3) of the Federal Reserve Act. ML was formed to acquire certain
assets of Bear Stearns and to manage those assets through time to maximize repayment of the credit extended and minimize disruption to financial markets. On June 14, 2012, the remaining outstanding
balance of the senior loan from FRBNY to ML was repaid in full, with interest. On November 15, 2012, the remaining outstanding balance of the subordinated loan from JPMorgan Chase & Co. to ML was repaid
in full, with interest. FRBNY was the primary beneficiary of ML because it received any residual returns and could have absorbed any residual losses should they have occurred. Consistent with generally
accepted accounting principles, the assets and liabilities of ML were consolidated with the assets and liabilities of FRBNY in the preparation of the statements of condition shown on this release. As a
consequence of the consolidation, the extension of credit from FRBNY to ML was eliminated, the net assets of ML appeared as a component of Other assets on the previous page (and as assets in table 1 and
table 4), and the liabilities of ML to entities other than FRBNY, including those with recourse only to the ML portfolio holdings, were included in other liabilities in this table (and table 1 and table 4).
