Note: Because of timing and valuation differences, the National Balance Sheet Accounts data contained in this table are not necessarily on the same basis as other data elsewhere in this publication (most of the data in this report is on a par-value basis—that is, outstanding securities are valued at par). For this reason, although the two sets of data yield very similar information, the data in this table is not strictly comparable with other data in this publication.
