Loans and deposits tread water at US banks in February — H8

Average total loans and leases at U.S. commercial banks increased by $24.1 billion to $9.145 trillion in February, according to the Federal Reserve's March 9 H.8 report. This was driven primarily by an $11.2 billion increase in real estate loans and a $5.9 billion increase in "all other loans and leases."

Average loans and leases at large commercial banks increased by $14.1 billion month over month, while average loans and leases at small commercial banks increased by $18.0 billion. Loans and leases at foreign-related institutions fell by $7.9 billion.

Meanwhile, average total deposits at U.S. commercial banks decreased by $24.6 billion in February, compared to a $27.4 billion increase in January. However, total deposits were still up $402.8 billion from February 2017.
