FEDERAL RESERVE BANK OF NEW YORK Fiscal Agent of the United States Circular No. 9849 May 1, 1985 TR EA SU RY A N N O U N C ES M AY Q U A R T ER LY F IN A N C IN G To All Banking Institutions, and Others Concerned, in the Second Federal Reserve District: The following is quoted from a statement issued yesterday by the Treasury Department: The Treasury will raise about $9,875 million of new cash and refund $10,623 million of securities maturing May 15, 1985, by issuing $8,000 million of 3-year notes, $6,500 million of 10-year notes, and $6,(XX) million of 293/4-year 1114% bonds. The $10,623 million of maturing securities are those held by the public, including $1,192 million held, as of today, by Federal Reserve Banks as agents for foreign and international monetary authorities. The 10-year note and 293/4-year bond being offered today will be eligible for exchange in the STRIPS pro gram and, accordingly, may be divided into their seperate Interest and Principal Components and maintained on the book-entry records of the Federal Reserve Banks and Branches. Once a security is in the STRIPS form, the components may be maintained and transferred in multiples of $1,000. Financial institutions should consult their local Federal Reserve Bank or Branch for procedures for requesting securities in STRIPS form. The three issues totaling $20,500 million are being offered to the public, and any amounts tendered by Federal Reserve Banks as agents for foreign and international monetary authorities will be added to that amount. Tenders for such accounts will be accepted at the average prices of accepted competitive tenders. In addition to the public holdings, Government accounts and Federal Reserve Banks, for their own accounts, hold $2,618 million of the maturing securities that may be refunded by issuing additional amounts of the new securities at the average prices of accepted competitive tenders. Printed on the reverse side is a table summarizing the highlights of the offerings. The 10-year note and the 29 3A-year bond will be eligible for conversion to STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities). Information about this feature is contained in the en closed announcement by the Treasury Department. Additional details are set forth in the Treasury Depart ment’s official offering circulars, copies of which will be furnished upon request directed to the Circulars Division (Tel. No. 212-791-5216) or the Government Bond Department (Tel. No. 212-791-6619). Questions regarding procedures for requesting securities in STRIPS form should be directed to H. John Costalos, Manager, Securities Transfer Department (Tel. No. 212-791-5986) or Daniel Bolwell, Chief, Securities Transfer Division (Tel. No. 212-791-5379). In addition, enclosed are copies of the forms to be used in submitting tenders. This Bank will receive tenders at the Securities Department of its Head Office and at its Buffalo Branch on the dates and times specified on the reverse side of this circular as the deadlines for receipt of tenders. A ll competitive tenders, whether transmitted by mail or by other means, must reach this Bank or its Branch by that time on the specified dates. However, for investors who wish to submit noncompetitive tenders and who find it more convenient to mail their tenders than to present them in person, the official offering circular for each offering provides that noncompetitive tenders will be considered timely received if they are mailed to this Bank or its Branch under a postmark no later than the date preceding the date specified for receipt of tenders. Bidders submitting noncompetitive tenders should realize that it is possible that the average price may be above par, in which case they would have to pay more than the face value for the securities. Payment with a tender may be made in cash, by check, in Treasury securities maturing on or before the issue date of the securities being purchased, by a charge to an institution’s reserve account at this Bank, or, in the case of Treasury Tax and Loan Note Option Depositaries, by credit to a Treasury Tax and Loan Note Account. Payment by check must be in the form of an official bank check, a Federal funds check (a check drawn by a depository institution on its Federal Reserve account), or a personal check, which need not be certified. All checks must be drawn payable to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York; checks endorsed to this Bank will not be accepted.
