Annual Balance Sheet
The Central Bank of Lebanon issued Circular No. 2 on 18 October 1967 to mandate that banks submit complete balance sheets for all accounts, rather than limiting submissions to debit and credit balances. The directive requires these documents to be filed on four-column forms that separately record account movements (totals) and account balances. This requirement ensures the Economics Department receives comprehensive statistical data for accurate economic monitoring.
