Federal Reserve Balance Sheet
The Federal Reserve Balance Sheet is the Federal Reserve System's published ledger of its assets and liabilities, showing what the central bank holds (such as U.S. Treasury securities and mortgage-backed securities) and its sources of funds (including reserves held by banks and currency in circulation).
Example: During a liquidity phase, the Federal Reserve expands its balance sheet by acquiring Treasury securities and mortgage-backed securities, increasing reserve balances.
