Federal Reserve Board to make formatting changes to DDP XML files

On March 26, 2023, the Federal Reserve will make minor changes to the format of all XML files released through the Data Download Program (DDP). The changes include

– adding line breaks in message headers to improve readability;

– removing extra spaces before closing tags of observations;

– and some long description text that was previously truncated will no longer be truncated.

These changes will help expedite the release of some public DDP releases and lay the groundwork for continued improvements in the future.

New interactive graphics feature of Data Download Program (DDP)

Users will now be able to create and view interactive graphics of data packages from the program before downloading the underlying data and charts. The charting feature allows users to view multiple data series on a single chart as well as to display individual data points. The charts can be saved as PDFs or in a standard image file format (PNG) for publication and redistribution.

“Graphics play an important role in identifying data trends and relationships,” said Federal Reserve Vice Chair Janet L. Yellen. “With the help of this intuitive new user interface, it’s now possible to create customized charts directly from Federal Reserve statistical data.”

Supplementary Information Regarding Banks’ Adoption of FAS 166 and 167

The March 31, 2010 Call Report data reflect banks’ adoption of FASB’s Financial Accounting Statements No. 166 (FAS 166), Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets, and No. 167 (FAS 167), Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R).

For more information on FAS 166 and 167, please see the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s news release.

Adoption of FAS 159 by some banks in 2008:1

The adoption by some banks of FAS 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, affected charge-off and delinquency rate data for 2008:1. Because the effects of the accounting change on the dollar volume of loans reported on banks’ loan books were small, the effects of the accounting change on banks’ charge-off and delinquency rates were presumably small for the industry as a whole. Information on the dollar impacts on banks’ loan books can be found on page 14 in the “Notes on the Data” section beginning with the April 11, H.8, Assets and Liabilities of Commercial Bank in the United States, statistical release. For more information on FAS 159, please refer to www.fasb.org/st/summary/stsum159.shtml.
