RESTRICTED CASH RESTRICTED CASH
The Bank is required by Puerto Rico law to maintain average weekly reserve balances to cover demand deposits, excluding government deposits that are secured with pledged collateral. The amount of those minimum average reserve balances for the week that covered September 30, 2024 was $460.1 million (December 31, 2023 - $464.5 million). At September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Bank complied with this requirement. Cash and due from banks, as well as other short-term highly liquid securities, are used to cover the required average reserve balances.
