The quarterly financial reports all federally insured banks and
thrift institutions must file with regulatory agencies now are
available on a new Internet site developed jointly by the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) and the Office of Thrift
Supervision (OTS).
The new Web site includes both the Reports of Condition and Income,
generally known as "Call Reports," for all FDIC-insured commercial
banks, and the Thrift Financial Reports (TFRs) for all FDIC-insured
thrift institutions. The site provides users with a vehicle for
obtaining detailed financial information submitted by institutions
supervised and regulated by the FDIC, OTS, Office of the Comptroller
of the Currency and Federal Reserve System.
Every FDIC-insured national and state-chartered bank is required
to file consolidated Reports of Condition and Income, normally at
the end of each calendar quarter. The specific reporting requirements
for banks depend upon the size of the bank and whether it has any
foreign offices. Every federally insured savings association is
required to file a consolidated Thrift Financial Report at the end
of each calendar quarter.
Users of the new Web site can review and print the on-line Call
Report or TFR for any individual institution. Call Reports and
TFRs for several quarters, beginning with the March 1998 reporting
cycle, will be available. The site is being enhanced so that
download to spreadsheet capabilities will be operational when the
September Call Reports and TFRs are available in December 1998.
The new "Call/TFR Reports" site can be found on the FDIC's Internet
home page (www.fdic.gov
) under "Bank Data" and "Banking News."

Congress created the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation in 1933 to restore public confidence in the nation's banking system. The FDIC insures deposits at the nation's 10,712 banks and savings associations and it promotes the safety and soundness of these institutions by identifying, monitoring and addressing risks to which they are exposed.
The Quarterly Banking Profile is available on the Internet (via World Wide Web at www.fdic.gov
), by fax (dial 1-804-642-0003 on your fax machine and follow the voice prompts to Request Document No. 253), or by mail or messenger (from the FDIC's Public Information Center, 801 17th Street, NW, Washington, DC 20434, telephone 800-276-6003 or (703) 562-2200).
