The "reserve requirement ratio"  is the percentage of customer deposits and other liquid assets that commercial banks must keep in-house or with the central bank. The reserve ratio is the percentage of reservable liabilities that commercial banks must keep rather than lend or invest. The reserve requirement is the minimum amount of reserves that a bank must keep on hand, and it is sometimes used interchangeably with the reserve ratio. The reserve ratio is the percentage of a commercial bank's deposits that it must keep in cash as a reserve in the event of mass customer withdrawals, as determined by the central bank.
