Instructions for Preparation of

The Report of Selected Money Market Rates
Report Form: FR 2420
Effective Date: October 1, 2018

INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE PREPARATION OF:

Report of Selected Money Market Rates
FR 2420
INTRODUCTION1
The Report of Selected Money Market Rates (FR 2420) is filed on a daily basis and collects data on
transactions in selected money market instruments that were executed by banking institutions on the
report date. The report is comprised of four parts. Part A collects data on federal funds purchased.
Part B collects data on Eurodollars. Part C collects data on time deposits and certificates of deposit
issued by domestic offices. Part D collects data on selected deposits.

Purpose
The FR 2420 is used to monitor market activity in selected money market instruments. The data are
also aggregated to create rate or volume statistics for publication.

Authority
The FR 2420 reports are authorized by law (12 U.S.C. 248(a), 12 U.S.C. 324, 12 U.S.C. 3105(c)(2), 12
U.S.C. 3106(a), 12 U.S.C. 1844(c)(1)(A)).

Confidentiality
The Federal Reserve Board regards the individual reporting institution information provided by each
respondent as confidential (5 U.S.C. § 552(b)(4)). The Federal Reserve, however, publishes aggregate
or summary information in a way that does not reveal an individual reporting institution’s confidential
information. If it should be determined subsequently that any individual information collected on this
form must be released, the reporting institution will be notified.

Throughout these instructions, all terms marked in “italics” are defined in the Glossary.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Institutions Required to Report
The following banking institutions must file the FR 2420 on a daily basis:
A.) U.S. Depository Institutions
U.S. depository institutions are required to report the FR 2420 if they meet one of two criteria:
1) Asset-Size Criterion:
Every U.S. depository institution with total assets of $18 billion or more as of the most
recent September 30 filing of the FFIEC 31 or FFIEC 041 Report (Call Report) is required
to report the FR 2420.
2) Activity Criterion:
Every U.S. depository institution with total assets of $5 billion or more but less than $18
billion as of the most recent filing of the FFIEC 31 or FFIEC 041 Report (Call Report) and
federal funds purchased activity (as described in Part A) totalling more than $200 million
on two or more days over the preceding three months is required to report the FR 2420.

B.)

U.S. Branches and Agencies of a Foreign Bank
Every U.S. branch and agency of a foreign bank with total third party assets of $2.5 billion or
more as of the most recent September 30 filing of the FFIEC 002 report (Call Report) is
required to report on the FR 2420. Total third party assets are calculated by taking the value
reported in the FFIEC 002 report in Schedule RAL, Item 3, Column A, and subtracting from it
the value reported in the FFIEC 002 report in Schedule RAL, Item 2.a.

C.) International Banking Facilities
Each International Banking Facility (IBF) of a U.S. depository institution or of a U.S. branch
or agency of a foreign bank that is required to report the FR 2420 must report a separate FR
2420 report for Part B (Eurodollars) only.

D.) Significant Banking Institution
The Federal Reserve may designate any banking institution that is a participant in money
markets and whose data are important to the analysis and monitoring of market activity as a
“significant banking institution” even if it does not meet the asset-size or activity criteria for FR
2420 reporting. A significant banking institution will be expected to begin to report on the FR
2420 within three months of its designation.

Changes in Reporting Status
Changes to a respondent’s reporting status based on the asset-size criterion or activity criterion are
governed as follows:
A.) Changes Based on the Asset-Size Criterion
If a U.S. depository institution or U.S. branch or agency of a foreign bank that does not
currently report on the FR 2420 meets the asset-size reporting criterion based on the most recent
September filing of the Call Report, the U.S. depository institution or U.S. branch or agency of
a foreign bank must begin to report on the FR 2420 effective January 1 of the following year.
If a U.S. depository institution or U.S. branch or agency of a foreign bank that reports on the
FR 2420 subsequently falls below the asset-size criterion based on the most recent September
filing of the Call Report, the U.S. depository institution or U.S. branch or agency of a foreign
bank must continue to report on the FR 2420 through the December 31 report date.
B.)

Changes Based on the Activity Criterion
If a U.S. depository institution that does not currently report on the FR 2420 meets the assetsize criterion of total assets of $5 billion or more but less than $18 billion based on the most
recent filing of the Call Report, and has federal funds purchased activity totalling more than
$200 million on two or more days over the preceding three months, the U.S. depository
institution is required to begin to report on the FR 2420 effective no later than three months
after meeting the activity threshold. U.S. depository institutions who meet the activity
threshold for the first time should contact the Federal Reserve Bank of New York’s Data and
Statistics Division to discuss plans to begin reporting.
If a U.S. depository institution that reports on the FR 2420 meets the asset-size threshold of
total assets of $5 billion or more but less than $18 billion but subsequently falls below the
activity criterion, the U.S. depository institution must continue to report until the activity
criterion is not met for twelve consecutive months. Requests for a change in reporting status
based on a U.S. depository institution’s federal funds purchased activity falling below the
activity threshold should be made in writing and submitted to the Federal Reserve Bank of New
York’s Data and Statistics Division.

Preparation of FR 2420 Reports
Report Individual Transaction Level Data
Respondents must report the information specified on the FR 2420 report for each individual
transaction that was executed on the report date as of the close of business for that report date. Please
see the Glossary under close of business for important additional information. Respondents must
consolidate into the FR 2420 report the transaction data of their foreign or domestic offices as specified
in the Rules of Consolidation below. Each transaction executed and settled on the report date and each
transaction for which the terms were agreed upon on the report date that are scheduled to settle on a
future date must be reported individually with the exact terms for that specific transaction.

Dollar Denomination
All dollar amounts on the FR 2420 are to be reported in millions of U.S. dollars, with amounts rounded
to the nearest million U.S. dollars. Transactions executed with a dollar value less than $1 million
should not be reported.

Arm’s Length Transactions
Only arm’s length transactions are to be reported on all parts of the FR 2420.

Counterparty Type
For each Part of the FR 2420 report, the counterparty type for each transaction must be reported. See
counterparty types in the Glossary. Each counterparty type has a corresponding numerical value. The
numerical values and counterparty type descriptions are consistent across all Parts of the report.

Transaction Date and Forward Starting Transactions
Respondents must report all transactions in all Parts of the FR 2420 on the trade date, regardless of
when the transactions settle; including forward starting transactions.

Rules of Consolidation
A.) U.S. Depository Institutions:
For Part A, Part C, and Part D, a U.S. depository institution with foreign offices must include
in the U.S. depository institution’s FR 2420 report individual transactions data for all domestic
branches and majority-owned domestic subsidiaries whose data are included in the institution’s
FFIEC 031 according to the FFIEC 031 Instructions for consolidation of those domestic offices.
For Part A, Part C, and Part D, a U.S. depository institution with domestic offices only must
include in the U.S. depository institution’s FR 2420 report individual transactions data for all
domestic branches and majority-owned domestic subsidiaries whose data are included in the
institution’s FFIEC 041 according to the FFIEC 041 Instructions for consolidation of those
domestic offices.

All Eurodollars for all foreign offices

U.S. Branches and Agencies of Foreign Banks:
For Part A, Part C, and Part D, U.S. branches and agencies of foreign banks must follow the
FFIEC 002 instructions for consolidation to determine which activity to report. That is, each
designated branch or agency of a foreign bank must file a separate FR 2420 report.
For Part B, U.S. branches and agencies of foreign banks must report all Eurodollars for
Cayman and Nassau branches. U.S. branches and agencies of foreign banks are to report
either:


All Eurodollars for each significant Cayman and Nassau branch; or

All Eurodollars for all Cayman and Nassau branches

C.) All reporting institutions, including U.S. Depository Institutions, U.S. Branches and Agencies of
Foreign Banks, International Banking Facilities, and Significant Banking Institutions, are not
to consolidate:
1. Affiliate transactions
Transactions between the reporting institution and its affiliates are excluded from all Parts
of the FR 2420.
2. Intercompany transactions (transactions with related parties)
All intercompany transactions are excluded from all parts of the FR 2420.

Amended Reports
The Federal Reserve will require the filing of amended reports if reports as previously submitted
contain misstatements, omissions, or errors. In addition, a reporting institution should file an amended
report when misstatements or errors are found by the reporting institution, for example, after the review
of data or through an audit. Please contact the Federal Reserve Bank of New York’s Data and
Statistics Function concerning amended reports. Respondents must submit amended reports using the
Federal Reserve System’s Reporting Central application.

Page 7 of 37

Federal Reserve Bank staff thoroughly review data submitted on the FR 2420 report to ensure that the
data are accurate. As a result of that review, Federal Reserve Bank staff may ask reporting institutions
to provide an explanation for certain transactions including the reason behind specific data reported,
and, if reported data are misstated or incorrect, Federal Reserve Bank staff will ask the institution to
submit revisions. Since these data are extremely time sensitive, reporting institutions should respond
as quickly as possible to these requests.

Open Time Deposits: Open time deposits are reported on the report date the open time deposit
was executed and then again on each report date that the open time deposit has a change in any of
the terms, including the interest rate or the dollar amount.
Alternatively, a reporting institution may opt to report open time deposits on each report date
instead of monitoring for changes in terms if this option is more convenient for the institution’s
operations or internal reporting framework.

For floating rate time deposits with a reference rate, report the interest rate (including any spread)
applicable at the inception of the transaction. If the effective interest rate cannot be calculated on
the report date, report zero.

Spread
Floating Interest Rate Time Deposit:
If the interest rate for a floating rate time deposit is determined by the value of the reference rate
PLUS or MINUS a spread, report the amount of the spread in percent terms, expressed to two

Page 16 of 37

decimal places with a leading zero if the spread is less than 100 basis points. When a negative
entry occurs for the spread item, the spread is to be preceded with a minus (-) sign.

A time deposit with a floating interest rate is referenced to 1 month LIBOR plus 30
basis points. In this case, the spread would be reported as 0.30.



Example 2:
A time deposit with a floating interest rate is referenced to 1 month LIBOR minus 30
basis points. In this case, the spread would be reported as -0.30.



Example 3:
A time deposit with a floating interest rate is referenced to 1 month LIBOR plus 125
basis points. In this case, the spread would be reported as 1.25.

For time deposits that reset to a predetermined interest rate multiple times during the term of the
deposit at different time intervals, enter a numeric value of 6 (for Other).


Example: If a time deposit with an interest rate at inception of 1.0%, resets in one
month to 1.12%, and then resets in three months to 1.25%, enter a numeric value of 6 for
“Other”.

Reference Rate (If Floating)
Floating Interest Rate:
If the time deposit has a floating rate, enter the numeric value below to describe the reference
rate. If the floating rate is determined by the value of the reference rate PLUS or MINUS a
spread, enter the numeric value below to describe the underlying reference rate.

note or other written evidence of the borrower’s obligation; and (3) fully secured by collateral in
accordance with the Federal Home Loan Bank Act and 12 CFR Part 950.
Fixed and Floating Interest Rates:
Fixed Interest Rate:
A CD or time deposit with a fixed interest rate has a rate that is specified at the origination of
the transaction, is fixed and invariable during the term, and is known to both the borrower and
the lender.
Also treated as having a fixed interest rate is a CD or time deposit with a predetermined interest
rate which is a rate that changes during the term of the CD or time deposit on a predetermined
basis (i.e., there is a predetermined reset at which time the interest rate changes to a
predetermined rate which was set at origination). The exact rate of interest over the life of the
CD or time deposit is known with certainty to both the borrower and the lender at the
origination of the CD or time deposit.
Floating Interest Rate:
A CD or time deposit with a floating rate has a rate that varies, or can vary, in relation to an
index, to some other interest rate such as the rate on certain U.S. Government securities or the
"prime rate," or to some other variable criterion the exact value of which cannot be known in
advance. Therefore, the exact rate the CD or time deposit carries at any subsequent time cannot
be known at the time of origination.
Foreign Office:
A branch or consolidated subsidiary located in a foreign country (non-U.S.), or in Puerto Rico or a U.S.
territory or possession. Branches on U.S. military facilities, wherever located, are treated as domestic

Forward Starting Transaction:
A forward starting transaction is a transaction that does not settle until a future date.
Interest Rate:
An interest rate reported on the FR 2420 should be reported as a percent expressed out to five decimal
places with a leading 0 if the rate is less than one percent. A negative interest rate is to be preceded
with a minus (-) sign.


Example 1: An interest rate of 2.53 percent would be reported as 2.53000.

Page 32 of 37

notification to the Federal Reserve. The establishing entity may be a U.S. depository institution, a U.S.
office of an Edge Act or Agreement corporation, or a U.S. branch or agency of a foreign bank pursuant

transaction was executed (i.e., the date that terms are agreed on and the contract confirmed); even if the
funds are made available to the reporting institution on a subsequent date (transaction scheduled to
settle on a future date). For example, a report date of January 20 would reflect all transactions
