The Survey of Terms of Business Lending collects data on gross loan extensions made during the first full business week in the middle month of each quarter. The authorized panel size for the survey is 348 domestically chartered commercial banks and 50 U.S. branches and agencies of foreign banks. The sample data are used to estimate the terms of loans extended during that week at all domestic commercial banks and all U.S. branches and agencies of foreign banks. The terms on loans extended during the survey week may differ from those extended during other weeks of the quarter. The estimates reported here are not intended to measure the average terms on all business loans in bank portfolios.

Footnotes

1. As of March 31, 2016 , assets of the large banks were at least $5.2 billion. Median total assets for all insured banks were roughly $183 million. Assets at all U.S. branches and agencies averaged 11.3 billion.

2. The "maturity/repricing" interval measures the period from the date the loan is made until it first may be repriced or matures. For floating-rate loans that are subject to repricing at any time--such as many prime-based loans--the maturity/repricing interval is zero. For floating-rate loans that have a scheduled repricing interval, the maturity/repricing interval measures the number of days between the date the loan is made and the date on which it is next scheduled to reprice. For loans having rates that remain fixed until the loan matures (fixed-rate loans), the maturity/repricing interval measures the number of days between the date the loan is made and the date on which it matures. Loans that reprice daily mature or reprice on the business day after they are made. Because of weekends and holidays, such loans may have maturity/repricing intervals in of more thanone day; nevertheless, such loans are not included in the 2 to 30 day category.

3. A complete description of these risk categories is available in the survey instructions, available at http://www.federalreserve.gov/apps/reportforms/reportdetail.aspx?sOoYJ+5BzDaSCesXTb1UmHCoyU8rIHWr. The category "Moderate risk" includes the average loan, under average economic conditions, at the typical lender. The "Other" category includes loans rated "Acceptable" as well as special mention or classified loans. The weighted-average risk ratings published for loans in rows 31-39 are calculated by assigning a value of 1 to minimal risk loans, 2 to low risk loans, 3 to moderate risk loans, 4 to acceptable risk loans, and 5 to special mention and classified loans. These values are weighted by loan amount and exclude loans with no risk rating. Some of the loans in table rows 1, 6, 11, 16, 21, 26, and 31-36 are not rated for risk.

4. Effective (compounded) annual interest rates are calculated from the stated rate and other terms of the loans and weighted by loan amount. For the standard error of the loan rate for all C&I loans in the current survey (tables 1-5, line 1, column 1), see the summary statistics table. The chances are about two out of three that the average rate shown will differ by less than this amount from the average rate that would be found by a complete survey of the universe of all banks.

5. Average maturities are weighted by loan amount and exclude loans with no stated maturities.

6. Loans guaranteed, either in part or in whole, by the Small Business Administration (SBA). http://www.sba.gov/category/navigation-structure/loans-grants/small-business-loans/sbas-role

7. The terms "syndication" and "participation" encompasses a variety of arrangements among institutions to make loans. When each participating lender agrees in advance to fund and be at risk only up to a specified percentage of the total credit and the contract is executed by all participants and the borrower, the arrangement is often referred to as a syndication. When a lead lender originates the transaction and is the only party to the contract with the borrower and sells shares as prearranged with others, the arrangement is referred to as a participation. All loans made under either arrangements, whether or not the lender is the originator, are included.

8. For loans made under formal commitments, the average time interval between the date on which the loan pricing was set and the date on which the loan was made, weighted by the loan amount. For loans under informal commitment, the time interval is zero.

9. Prime-based loans are based on the lending bank's own prime rate, any other lender's prime rate, a combintation of prime rates, or a publicly reported prime rate. Loans with "other" base rates include loan rates expressed in terms of any other base rate (e.g., the federal funds rate or LIBOR) and loans for which no base rate is used to determine the loan rate.

10. See the summary statistics tables for the average reported prime rate weighted by the dollar value of loans priced relative to a prime base rate.

11. For loans made under formal commitments.
