Definition

Seasonally adjusted monthly average balance of construction, land development, and other land loans held by U.S. commercial banks, in USD million. This H.8 category is part of commercial real estate lending (Federal Reserve H.8, item 16).

H.8 covers commercial banks in the 50 states and the District of Columbia, including domestically chartered banks, U.S. branches and agencies of foreign banks, and Edge Act and agreement corporations. It excludes International Banking Facilities, U.S. territories, savings institutions, credit unions, and consumer finance companies. The XML date is the calendar month-end label, but each monthly level is a pro rata average of estimated weekly Wednesday balances, not a month-end balance. These are balance-sheet stocks, not new lending or loan originations. Some indicators are aggregates with their components also listed, so an aggregate and its components should not be added together. Federal Reserve notes document reporting and category reclassifications that can affect levels; published H.8 growth rates adjust for major nonbank structural changes and accounting changes, while the levels shown here retain these breaks and may not be comparable across them.
