Changes to Debt Service Ratio (DSR) publication
Starting with the 2024:Q2 Debt Service Ratio (DSR) publication, the Board will transition to a new, credit bureau data-based methodology for calculating the DSR, Mortgage DSR, and Consumer DSR. The new series can be found at https://www.federalreserve.gov/releases/dsr/ and the new methodology is described here. An archived version of the old DSR series will continue to be hosted at https://www.federalreserve.gov/releases/housedebt/default.htm, but will no longer be updated.
