General Instructions
About the survey
The Federal Reserve 2016 Depository and Financial Institutions Payments Survey is a national survey of depository and
financial institutions that offer transaction deposits accounts, prepaid card program accounts, and credit card accounts to
consumer, business, and government customers, or serve as ATM sponsors for independent service operator (ISO)
customers. The survey gathers data about noncash payments, cash withdrawals and deposits that posted to customer
accounts, and unauthorized third-party payment fraud against those customer’s accounts that took place during calendar
year 2015. Data from your response will contribute to estimates of the national aggregate number and value of payments
and withdrawals made by these transaction methods. The Federal Reserve will compare the results of this survey to
previous triennial surveys conducted from 2001 to 2013.

Confidentiality
Any information you provide for this survey is strictly confidential. Individual responses to the survey will not be shared
with the public or the industry.

Your participation
Your response to this survey will be used to estimate national aggregate volumes for calendar year 2015. To achieve the
most reliable results, it is important that you respond completely and accurately. If your institution outsourced
payments processing to another organization during calendar year 2015, please request the necessary
data from that organization or provide them with the survey so they may respond on behalf of your institution.
Please leave no survey item blank.
There are three possible ways to respond to a survey item that requests a numeric value:
1. If your institution has volume for the item requested and the volume is known or can be accurately estimated,
enter the amount. (Enter “0” if the amount equals zero.)
2. If your institution has volume for the item requested but the volume is unknown and cannot be accurately
estimated, enter “NR” (not reported). (Do not enter “0” if the volume exists but the amount is
unknown.)
3. If your institution does not have volume for the item requested (i.e., the item requested does not apply to your
institution), enter “0”.

affiliates (listed in item 1 below) are not included in your response to different parts of the survey and which additional (not
listed in item 1 below) are included in your response. If your institution acquired or merged with another institution(s)
during calendar year 2015, please report combined data for calendar year 2015.
Please contact us at (866) 829-8881 if you have any questions or concerns about the items on this page.

Institution Profile
Note: Use your best available information to complete the survey for full calendar year 2015, including data for all affiliates. “Your
institution” refers to the entire enterprise including all affiliates (see page 3). Only report data associated with your institution's U.S.
domiciled accounts. The data you provide will only be used to produce national aggregate estimates of the volumes being measured.
If you have additional information about your response that will help us produce these estimates, please let us know in the comments
box below.
3.

Did your institution or any of its affiliates employ the use of a
retail sweep program (i.e., reserve sweep program) during
calendar year 2015?

 Yes
 No (Please report “0” for item
7 below.)

 Don’t know

In order to make national aggregate estimates, we use your institution’s deposit balances
as a sizing measure. Understanding if your institution used a retail sweeps program will
help inform our estimates. In a retail sweep, depository institutions move unused funds
from checkable deposit accounts (both consumer and business/government) to special
purpose money market deposit accounts (MMDAs) and return the funds to checkable
deposit accounts only as needed to cover payments. This practice does not adversely
impact the accountholder but allows the institution to reduce nonearning assets. Do not
consider wholesale sweep program accounts (i.e., corporate sweep program accounts).

4.

Did your institution provide a wholesale sweep program (i.e.,
corporate sweep program) to your business accountholders
during calendar year 2015?

 Yes
 No (Please report “0” for item
8 below.)

 Don’t know

Do not consider retail sweep program accounts (i.e., reserve sweep program accounts).

5.

Did your institution provide card network acquiring services
during calendar year 2015?
Answer “Yes” if your institution provided access to merchants or other accountholders
that receive payments over card networks.

 Yes
 No
 Don’t know

Transaction deposit account-type definitions
Consumer: A transaction deposit account for personal use by an individual or household from which payments are
commonly made. This includes checking accounts, NOW accounts, and share draft accounts. It excludes savings accounts
and money market deposit accounts (MMDAs), which, although eligible for a limited number of transactions per month, should
not be included. It also excludes certificates of deposit (CDs).
Business/government: A transaction deposit account owned by an organization (i.e., business, government, non-depository
financial institution, or not-for-profit) from which payments are commonly made. This includes small business accounts and
commercial checking accounts – both analyzed (i.e., those for which fees can be offset by balances via an earnings credit
rate) and non-analyzed. It excludes savings accounts and money market deposit accounts (MMDAs), which although eligible
for a limited number of transactions per month, should not be included. It also excludes certificates of deposit (CDs) and
deposits held from a depository institution for correspondent banking purposes.

Retail sweep program account-type definitions
Consumer: In a “retail sweep program,” a depository institution transfers funds between a customer’s transaction accounts
(e.g., a consumer) and that customer’s savings deposit accounts up to six times per month by means of preauthorized or
automatic transfers, typically in order to reduce transaction account reserve requirements while providing the customer with
access to the funds.
See http://www.federalreserve.gov/BOARDDOCS/LegalInt/FederalReserveAct/2007/20070501/20070501.pdf for a regulatory
opinion of what approaches may be used to implement these programs.
Business/government: In a “retail sweep program,” a depository institution transfers funds between a customer’s transaction

Wholesale sweep program account-type definitions
Wholesale sweep program accounts, also known as corporate sweep program accounts, are accounts in which funds from
your business accountholders are swept overnight into investment instruments. Common investments used in wholesale
sweeps are repurchase agreements, Master Notes, offshore Eurodollar deposits, and mutual funds.

unaffiliated depository institution during calendar year 2015?

 Yes
 No
 Don’t know

Balanced file and offset entry
An offset ACH entry is an on-us entry used to effect settlement by an ODFI. For example, when acting as ODFI for one hundred
$1,000 credit entries for a corporate accountholder, an ODFI might originate a single $100,000 debit entry to draw funds from
the originator’s funding account. In cases when the offset entry is included in the file originated by the accountholder, such that
the debit entry equals the total value of credit entries in the file, the ODFI receives a “balanced file” from the originator.
Note: See glossary for definitions of ODFI (Originating Depository Financial Institution) and RDFI (Receiving Depository
Financial Institution).

Network ACH entry
A network ACH entry is one that is cleared through a network operator (i.e., the Fed or EPN). Also include any direct send
volume presented to another institution.

In-house on-us ACH entry
An in-house on-us ACH entry is one for which your institution is both the ODFI and the RDFI without the use of a network
operator (i.e., the Fed or EPN) for clearing or settlement. On-us entries result in the movement of funds from one account to
another within your institution.
Note: See glossary for definitions of ODFI (Originating Depository Financial Institution) and RDFI (Receiving Depository
Financial Institution).
