Reserves

       
 

 

The Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland's Credit Risk Management function consists of the Discount Window, Payment System Risk, and Reserves Management operations. The Credit Risk Management staff is customer-oriented and focused on meeting the needs of our customers and stakeholders. We are efficient, flexible, and future-focused with the unique ability to efficiently assimilate and employ vast amounts of information to better serve our customers while effectively managing our Reserve Bank's risk exposure.

Under the Monetary Control Act, the Federal Reserve Board of Governors applies Regulation D ("Reserve Requirements of Depository Institutions") to all depository institutions. An institution's required reserve balance, after application of vault cash, is the dollar amount that must be held in a reserve account at the Federal Reserve Bank. If an institution is not a member of the Federal Reserve, it may hold your reserves with a correspondent on a pass-through basis.

The Reserves Management staff of Cleveland supports the oversight of Fourth District institution's reserves activity in the following ways:

  • Oversees daily reserves positioning, including reviewing reports and counseling depository institutions
  • Processes 'as of' adjustments transactions to depository institutions Reserves accounts
  • Monitors clearing balances and related activity
