Abstract: The Board uses the surveys in this collection to gather qualitative and limited quantitative information about liability management, the provision of financial services, and the functioning of key financial markets from a selection of up to 80 large commercial banks and other depository institutions (or, if appropriate, from other major financial market participants). This voluntary survey is completed by a senior officer at each respondent institution. In recent years, the Board has conducted two surveys per year, but it may conduct up to four surveys per year when significant informational needs arise that cannot be met from existing data sources.
