F ederal r eser ve Bank of Dallas DALLAS, TEXAS 75222 Circular No. 73-77 Dallas, Texas, April 13, 1973 CONDITION AND INCOME OF MEMBER BANKS ELEVENTH FEDERAL RESERVE DISTRICT To All Member Banks in the Eleventh Federal Reserve District The comparative statements of condition and income for member banks in the Eleventh District reflect the general expansion of economic activity that characterized 1972. Total assets of member banks, for example, increased more than 15 percent to $33 billion, surpassing the previous record increase set in 1971. Net income, after taxes, grew at a slightly slower pace but still provided a return to total capital of more than 12 percent, a slight increase from the previous year. Accompanying this expansion in assets and income was a significant change in the composition of the total loan and investment portfolios of member banks. While banks increased both loans and holdings of state, municipal, and other securities about 19 percent, they added only 1 percent to their holdings of U.S. Treasury securities. This realignment of assets resulted in a decrease in the ratio of capital accounts to risk assets from 9.5 percent to 8.8 percent and was partially responsible for an increase in the ratio of loans to deposits from 63.2 percent to 65.5 percent. There was also a significant change in the composition of total bank loans as some types of loans deviated widely from the average growth rate. Led by a very rapid increase in loans to finance residential construction, real-estate loans increased 31.7 percent, and by the end of 1972 constituted 13.3 percent of total bank loans. For similar reasons, loans to individuals for mobile home purchases and repairs and modernization of houses also rose very sharply. Special strength was noted in loans extended under credit cards, check credit, and revolving credit plans. Commercial and industrial loans, accounting for more than one third of all bank loans, increased only 12 percent in 1972. The very large increase of nearly 40 percent in loans to financial institutions reflected mainly sales of Federal funds rather than any fundamental credit demand. The two largest components of bank liabilities — demand deposits and time deposits of individuals — almost kept pace with the increase in bank assets, increasing 14.5 percent and 14.8 percent, respectively. U.S. Government deposits actually decreased from their 1971 level. Revenue sharing payments added significantly to deposit balances of state and local govern ments in December, however, contributing to a 29.1-percent annual increase in this category. Despite the growth in total deposits and in bank capital accounts, expanding loan demand outstripped available funds in 1972, resulting in substantial increases in bank borrowings from the Federal Reserve Bank and other sources. Net income of the District’s member banks increased $29 million in 1972, or 12.3 percent. This increase primarily reflected a larger volume of bank business, as both operating income and operating expenses gained about 12 percent over 1971 levels. As would be expected from the redistribution of assets, interest and dividends on securities grew a little more slowly than interest and fees on the more rapidly expanding holdings of loans. And the trend of rising interest rates throughout 1972 resulted in falling prices of securities so that income from security transactions contributed much less to bank income in 1972 than in 1971.
