The document discusses the key financial statements - balance sheets and income statements - of banks and other financial firms. It explains that balance sheets show the composition of funds sources and how they are allocated as assets, while income statements show revenues and expenses over a period of time. The document then provides detailed explanations of line items on both statements, such as different types of assets, liabilities, equity, interest and noninterest income/expenses. Tables are included comparing financial data across banks.

Introduction
• The particular services each financial firm chooses to offer
and the overall size of each financial-service organization
are reflected in its financial statements
• Financial statements can be viewed as a “road map”
▫ Tell us where a financial firm has been in the past, where it is
now, and possibly where it is headed in the future
• The two main financial statements that managers,
customers, and the regulatory authorities rely upon are
▫ The balance sheet (Report of Condition)
▫ The income statement (Report of Income)

An Overview of Balance Sheets and Income
Statements
• The Report of Condition shows the amount and composition of funds
sources (financial inputs) drawn upon to finance lending and investing
activities and how much has been allocated to loans, securities, and
other funds uses (financial outputs) at any given point in time
• In contrast, the financial inputs and outputs on the Report of Income
show how much it has cost to acquire funds and to generate revenues
from the uses the financial firm has made of those funds
• The Report of Income also shows the revenues (cash flow) generated
by selling services to the public, including making loans and servicing
customer deposits
• The Report of Income shows net earnings after all costs are deducted
from the sum of all revenues, some of which will be reinvested in the
financial firm for future growth and some of which will flow to
stockholders as dividends

The Balance Sheet (Report of Condition)
• A balance sheet lists the assets, liabilities, and equity
capital (owners’ funds) held by or invested in a bank or
other financial firm on any given date

The Balance Sheet (Report of Condition)
(continued)
• For banks and other depository institutions the assets on the
balance sheet are of four major types:
▫ Cash in the vault and deposits held at other depository institutions (C)
▫ Government and private interest-bearing securities purchased in the open
market (S)
▫ Loans and lease financings made available to customers (L)
▫ Miscellaneous assets (MA)
• Liabilities fall into two principal categories:
▫ Deposits made by and owed to various customers (D)
▫ Nondeposit borrowings of funds in the money and capital markets (NDB)
• Equity capital represents long-term funds the owners
contribute (EC)

The Balance Sheet (Report of Condition)
(continued)
• Cash assets (C) are designed to meet the financial firm’s need for
liquidity
• Security holdings (S) are a backup source of liquidity and include
investments that provide a source of income
• Loans (L) are made principally to supply income
• Miscellaneous assets (MA) are usually dominated by fixed assets
(plant and equipment) and investments in subsidiaries (if any)
• Deposits (D) are typically the main source of funding for banks
▫ Nondeposit borrowings (NDB) are carried out mainly to supplement
deposits and provide the additional liquidity that cash assets and
securities cannot provide
• Equity capital (EC) supplies the long-term, relatively stable base of
financial support upon which the financial firm will rely to grow and
to cover any extraordinary losses it incurs

The Balance Sheet (Report of Condition)
(continued)
• One useful way to view the balance sheet identity is to note that
liabilities and equity capital represent accumulated sources of funds,
which provide the needed spending power to acquire assets
• A bank’s assets, on the other hand, are its accumulated uses of funds,
which are made to generate income for its stockholders, pay interest to
its depositors, and compensate its employees for their labor and skill
• Thus, the balance sheet identity can be pictured simply as:

reserves a bank has on deposit with the Federal Reserve Bank
in its district
▫ “Fed funds”
▫ Some of these temporary credits are extended in the form of
reverse repurchase (resale) agreements (RPs) in which the
banking firm acquires temporary title to securities owned by
the borrower and holds those securities as collateral until the
loan is paid off

The Financial Statements of Leading Nonbank Financial
Firms: A Comparison to Bank Statements
• The financial statements of nonbank financial firms
have, in recent years, come closer and closer to what we
see on bank statements
▫ Especially true of thrift institutions
▫ Thrifts’ balance sheet are dominated by loans, deposits
from customers, and borrowings in the money market
▫ Thrifts’ income statements are heavily tilted toward
revenue from loans and by the interest they must pay on
deposits and money market borrowings
▫ Other groups in the financial-service industries such as
finance companies, life and property/casualty insurers,
mutual funds, and security brokers and dealers
▫ Their financial statements include sources and uses of
funds unique to the functions of these industries
