Reserve aggregates include required reserves of member banks and Edge Act Corporations and other depository institutions. Discontinuities associated with the implementation of the Monetary Control Act,
the inclusion of Edge Act Corporation reserves, and other changes in Regulation D have been removed.
2 Reserve balances with Federal Reserve Banks plus vault cash at institutions with required reserve
balances plus vault cash equal to required reserves at other institutions.
3 Extended credit consists of borrowing at the discount window under the terms and conditions established
for the extended credit program to help depository institutions deal with sustained liquidity pressures.
Because there is not the same need to repay such borrowing promptly as there is with traditional shortterm adjustment credit, the money market impact of extended credit is similar to that of nonborrowed
reserves.
4 Consists of reserve balances and service-related balances and adjustments at Federal Reserve Banks in
the current week plus vault cash held two weeks earlier used to satisfy reserve requirements at all
depository institutions plus currency outside the U.S. Treasury, Federal Reserve Banks, the vaults of
depository institutions, and surplus vault cash at depository institutions.
5 On August 10, 1983 bank-related commercial paper outstanding was $36,303 million.
6 Yield at 20-year constant maturity.
