Abstract: In 2013, the Center for Financial Stability (CFS) initiated its Divisia monetary aggregates database, maintained within the CFS program called Advances in Monetary and Financial Measurement (AMFM), based on Barnett (1980, 2012). The CFS will soon be making available Divisia monetary aggregates extended to include the transactions services of credit cards. The extended aggregates will be called the augmented Divisia monetary aggregates and will be available to the public in monthly releases. The new aggregates will also be available to Bloomberg terminal users. The theory on which the new aggregates are based is provided in Barnett and Su (2014).11A revised and updated version of that theory can be found in Barnett et al. (2016). In this paper, we provide detailed information on the data sources used in producing the new augmented Divisia monetary aggregates.
