1. Cash Ratio Deposits (effective immediately)

Cash Ratio Deposits (CRDs) are non-interest bearing deposits lodged with the Bank of England by eligible institutions (ie. banks and building societies), who have reported average eligible liabilities (ELs) in excess of £500 million over a six-month calculation period.

The level of each institution’s CRD is calculated twice yearly (in May and November) at 0.15% of average ELs in excess of £500 million over the previous six end-calendar months.  The next adjustment to CRDs is due to take place on Monday 3 December, based on data reported on BT item 46 (Total eligible liabilities) for the months of May to October 2007.

The deadline for revisions to ELs to be reflected in the 3 December adjustment is 5pm on 16 November 2007, call notices will be issued shortly thereafter.  Amendments to BT item 46 can be made via the usual contacts, but must be confirmed either in writing or by re-submitting the form.

If you have any queries relating to CRDs, please contact Sarah Waddington (Tel. 020 7601 5505).
