Graph and download economic data for Commercial Banks in the U.S. (DISCONTINUED) (USNUM) from Q1 1984 to Q3 2020 about commercial, banks, depository institutions, and USA.

The H.8 release provides an estimated weekly aggregate balance sheet for all commercial banks in the United States. The release also includes separate balance sheet aggregations for several bank groups: domestically chartered commercial banks; large domestically chartered commercial banks; small domestically chartered commercial banks; and foreign-related institutions in the United States. Foreign-related institutions include U.S. branches and agencies of foreign banks as well as Edge Act and agreement corporations. Published weekly, the release is typically available to the public by 4:15 p.m. each Friday. If Friday is a federal holiday, then the data are released on Thursday.The H.8 release is primarily based on data that are reported weekly by a sample of approximately 875 domestically chartered banks and foreign-related institutions. As of December 2009, U.S. branches and agencies of foreign banks accounted for about 60 of the weekly reporters and domestically chartered banks made up the rest of the sample. Data for domestically chartered commercial banks and foreign-related institutions that do not report weekly are estimated at a weekly frequency based on quarterly Call Report data.

This data set is a digitized version of “All-Bank Statistics, United States, 1896-1955,” (ABS) which the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System published in 1959. That volume contained annual aggregate balance sheet aggregates for all depository institutions by state and class of institution for the years 1896 to 1955. The depository institutions include nationally chartered commercial banks, state chartered commercial banks, and private banks as well as mutual savings bank and building and loan societies. The data comes from the last business day of the year or the closest available data. This digital version of ABS contains all data in the original source and only data from the original source.This data set is similar to ICPSR 2393, “U.S. Historical Data on Bank Market Structure, ICPSR 2393” by Mark Flood. ICPSR 2393 reports data from ABS but excludes subcategories of data useful for analyzing the liquidity of bank balance sheets, the operation of financial markets, the functioning of the financial network, and depository institutions’ contribution to monetary aggregates. ICPSR 2393, for example, reports total cash assets from ABS but does not report the subcomponents of that total: bankers balances, cash in banks’ own vaults, and items in the process of collection. Those data are needed to understand how much liquidity banks kept on hand, how much liquidity banks stored in or hoped to draw from reserve depositories, and how much of the apparent cash in the financial system was double-counted checks in the process of collection, commonly called float. Those data are also needed to understand the contribution of commercial banks to the aggregate money supply since cash in banks’ vaults counts within monetary aggregates while interbank deposits and float do not. While this dataset provides comprehensive and complete data from ABS, ICPSR 2393 contains information from other sources that researchers may find valuable including data from the aggregate income statements of nationally chartered banks and regulatory variables. To facilitate the use of that information, the naming conventions in this data set are consistent with those in ICPSR 2393.

The FR 2644 is a balance sheet report that is collected as of each Wednesday from an authorized stratified sample of 875 domestically chartered commercial banks and U.S. branches and agencies of foreign banks. The FR 2644 is the only source of high-frequency data used in the analysis of current banking developments. The FR 2644 collects sample data that are used to estimate universe levels for the entire commercial banking sector in conjunction with data from the quarterly commercial bank Consolidated Reports of Condition and Income (FFIEC 031, FFIEC 041, and FFIEC 051; OMB No. 7100-0036) and the Report of Assets and Liabilities of U.S. Branches and Agencies of Foreign Banks (FFIEC 002; OMB No. 7100-0032) (Call Reports). Data from the FR 2644 and the Call Reports are utilized in construction of weekly estimates of U.S. bank credit, balance sheet data for the U.S. commercial banking sector, and sources and uses of banks' funds, and to analyze current banking developments, including the monitoring of broad credit and funding conditions. The Board publishes the data in aggregate form in the weekly H.8 statistical release, Assets and Liabilities of Commercial Banks in the United States, which is followed closely by other government agencies, the banking industry, financial press, and other users. The H.8 release provides a balance sheet for the commercial banking industry as a whole as well as disaggregated data for three bank groups: large domestically chartered banks, small domestically chartered banks, and U.S. branches and agencies of foreign banks.

The Federal Reserve Board compiles quarterly data on domestically chartered insured commercial banks that have consolidated assets of $300 million or more and releases the data about twelve weeks after the end of each quarter. The data are obtained from the Consolidated Reports of Condition and Income filed quarterly by banks (FFIEC 031 and 041) and from other information in the Board's National Information Center database. Banks that are located in U.S. territories and possessions are not included in the table.

Over the course of the 1920s, the value of money deposited in commercial banks grew at a fairly steady rate, rising from around 19 billion U.S. dollars in 1921 (the initial dip was due to the post-WWI recession), to 25 billion at the end of the decade. However, the onset of the Great Depression saw these figures drop drastically, and the value of deposits fell from around 26 to 16 billion dollars between 1930 and 1933. This was not only due to high unemployment and lower wages, but many Americans also lost faith in the banks during the Depression - many blamed the banks for the Depression as frivolous lending practices had contributed to the Wall Street Crash; banks demanded early repayment of debts and often repossessed the property of those who could not afford to do so (also leading to evictions), and many banks failed after the Crash and were not perceived as safe. It was not until 1936 where deposits in commercial banks returned to their pre-Depression levels, after the Roosevelt administration put a number of safeguards in place and helped restore public faith in the American banking system.

In contrast to commercial banks, the total amount of money deposited in savings accounts continued to rise throughout the Great Depression, albeit at a much slower rate than in the 1920s. The reason for continued increase was due to the disproportionate impact the Depression had across socioeconomic groups - most working and middle-class Americans did not have the means to have a savings account

What does the FDIC do? The FDIC (Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation) is an agency created by the United States Congress that guarantees the deposits in commercial banks up to 250,000 U.S. dollars. This protects depositors if the bank becomes insolvent. It also enables banks to issue more loans, since depositors may prefer banks that are insured by the FDIC. Trends in the banking industry While the number of branches has stayed relatively stable, the number of FDIC-insured commercial banks has declined in recent years. At the same time, online banking adoption has surged and is expected to grow even further. Some of the country's leading digital banks now serve over 10,000 users.
