Federal Reserve Board to make formatting changes to DDP XML files
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.

Clarification of Criteria Considered for Commercial Paper Rates
Through November 4, the documentation on the “About” page of this release indicated that paper issued under “credit-enhanced programs” was excluded from the samples of issues used to calculate reported rates. This wording was intended to convey that asset-backed commercial paper was excluded from the calculation of financial rates. Indeed, consistent with that intent, the Federal Reserve has, since 2006, published a separate rate series for asset-backed commercial paper. To avoid confusion, the reference to “credit-enhanced programs” will be dropped.
