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

Revisions to student loan data in the G.19
Starting with March 2009 numbers, data are revised to incorporate loans purchased by the Department of Education under the 2007-08 and 2008-09 Loan Purchase Programs. More information on these programs is available at http://federalstudentaid.ed.gov/ffelp/. In addition, with this release the “Federal government and Sallie Mae” sector is relabeled the “Federal government” sector to reflect that Sallie Mae completed its transition to a finance company in 2004. Sallie Mae’s data before the completion of the privatization remains in the Federal government sector. This change affects the labeling solely and not the underlying data.
