Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council
Description: This report is mandated by the International Banking Act (IBA) of 1978. It collects balance sheet and off-balance-sheet information, including detailed supporting schedule items, from all U.S. branches and agencies of foreign banks.
The FFIEC publishes certain census, income, and metropolitan area data for geographies.
The FFIEC Examiner Exchange is an alternative delivery program that provides timely updates on changes in supervisory guidance or regulations and information on current issues in the financial industry. FFIEC may hold periodic events to discuss the economy, legislative updates, commercial real estate, appraisals, and other topics as needed. The target audience for FFIEC Examiner Exchange includes federal and state financial institution examiners. Programs are not intended for or available to the public.
How can I contact the FFIEC census and geocoding/mapping system team?
What census and geocoding products does the FFIEC provide?
The following definitions apply to the fields used in both the FFIEC Census Online and the FFIEC Geocoding and Mapping System. All fields are derived from the same data as the FFIEC flat file, but there are significantly more fields available in the flat files. For more information, please see FFIEC Flat Files
The Census tract list is a list of all Census tracts in the U.S. and the county, MSA/MD (or non-MSA), and state in which they lie. It also lists the tract income level for each tract. The list incorporates the OMB boundary changes for each year and is broken out by year so that users can see how each geography has changed over time.
To support the collection, reporting, and analysis of HMDA and CRA data, the FFIEC publishes certain census, income, and other data for geographies. The FFIEC geography-based data are updated as required by changes in area delineations by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). Because these data are updated periodically by the FFIEC, the FFIEC data may differ from data obtained directly from the Census Bureau. These data are intended to be used with HMDA and CRA data only and may not be suitable for other analytical purposes.
The FFIEC Census flat files are a convenient method of accessing and analyzing the FFIEC census data that are used to create the HMDA and CRA Aggregate and Disclosure Reports. They contain over 1,000 fields of census data and are updated annually to reflect changes to MSA/MD boundaries announced by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and CRA Distressed/Underserved Census Tracts as announced by the Federal banking regulatory agencies.
