Commercial Bank Examination Manual

Presents examination objectives and procedures that Federal Reserve System Examiners follow in evaluating the safety and soundness of state member banks. It is intended as guidance to Federal Reserve supervisory personnel in planning and conducting bank examinations and is to be used in concert with other supervisory guidance and manuals. It should not be considered a legal reference to the Federal Reserve Board and federal banking laws. It is usually updated in the spring and fall of each year.
