Consumer Instalment Credit

CONSUMERS added about as much to their
instalment debt this year, through July, as
they did in the first 7 months of 1963.
In percentage terms, however, the expansion has slowed somewhat. The seasonally
adjusted annual rate of increase through
July was about 10 per cent. This compares
with 12 per cent for the comparable period
last year.
The limited slowdown in debt growth indicated for 1964 to date has been due mainly
to three factors typical of the wide range of
conditions on which the growth of consumer
debt depends.
First, the rise in sales of durable goods
has not been fully matched in gross extensions of credit.
Secondly, there has been no repetition of
the bulge in personal cash loans that occurred a year ago this summer after statutory loan ceilings were raised in a half
dozen States.
Finally, the uptrend in the flow of debt
repayments has accelerated. For the most
part this is the result of the pattern of extensions over recent years. In addition, collection ratios in some lines improved with
the strong rise in consumers' disposable income.

and miscellaneous debts, (3) more than $16
billion in charge accounts and other shortterm noninstalment credit, and (4) $56 billion in short- and medium-term instalment
debt.
This article is concerned with the $56
billion of instalment debt.
The current period of expansion in such
debt began in mid-1961. Growth since then
has totaled $14 billion. This is the largest
dollar increase on record for any single continuous period of expansion. But because

the rise started from a much higher base
than did previous expansionary movements,
it so far has lifted the outstanding debt by
only one-third, as against an increase of onehalf in the 1954-57 period.
As Chart 1 shows, the usual pattern of
past expansions—a phase of very sharp acceleration in both gross and net borrowing,
followed by a leveling off—has not developed in 1961-64.
The latest upswing in extensions has been
much less steep than its predecessors. Being
comparatively gradual, it has not run so far
ahead of the corresponding advance in repayments as during the upswings of 195253, 1954-57, and 1959-60. The maximum
quarterly rate of debt increase, shown in the
lower panel of the chart, has been only
3 per cent this time compared with peaks
of nearly 5 per cent in 1959 and more
than 6 per cent in 1955.
Also, the yearly average increase in debt
since 1961 has been moderate in relation to
disposable personal income. Though these
have all been years of relative prosperity,
the rate of net debt formation—about 1 per
cent of annual income and 20 per cent of
the annual income gain—has not differed
significantly from the average for the entire
period since 1950, taking years of expansion
and recession together.
The recent rise in extensions, moreover,
has been more evenly balanced among categories of credit than were some of the spurts
of borrowing that occurred in the 195O's.
Since an initial upsurge 2 years ago which
centered in auto credit, the various types
of lending have expanded together for the
most part. Currently, each type accounts for
very nearly the same relative share of total
extensions as it did in 1962, according to
Table 1.




ECONOMIC ROLE OF CONSUMER CREDIT

Through July of this year, consumer instalment debt has been rising at a seasonally
adjusted annual rate of $5.6 billion. This
means that credit extensions have been adding $5.6 billion more to consumers' active
purchasing power, at an annual rate, than
has been withdrawn through repayments.
The net flow of such credit is a supplement to disposable income. Obtained partly
through expansion of bank credit and partly
from investors through other financial channels, the additional funds lend strength to
consumer markets and augment the incomes
of producers that serve these markets.
Net borrowing is highly volatile, however.
In the past decade, net debt formation has
ranged from an annual rate of more than
$6 billion in the second quarter of 1955 to
a negative figure (that is, net repayment)
of $1.3 billion in the second quarter of
1958. Its ratio to disposable personal income

CONSUMER INSTALMENT CREDIT

varied in this period from 2.3 per cent down
to a negative 0.4 per cent.
In recent quarters the major changes in
the flow of net new instalment borrowing
have been a rise of $0.6 billion to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of $6.1 billion
for the January-March period, followed by
a drop to a rate of $5.1 billion in the spring
quarter.
This increase and subsequent slowdown
in the use of credit reflected broadly the
pattern of consumers' market behavior at
the time.
Total personal consumption expenditures
increased a little more in the first quarter
than did disposable personal income, with
credit expansion financing part of the difference. In the second quarter, when the
cut in tax-withholding rates was effective
for all 3 months, disposable income rose
much more rapidly than spending and the
growth in consumer debt slowed accordingly. Indeed, close to half of the very large
rise in income went into various forms of
saving, as had been expected.
The limited information now available
for the third quarter suggests a further sizable increase in consumer spending, probably a larger increase than that in aftertax incomes. Tn July consumers' net instalment borrowing again moved up toward a
$6 billion rate, with repayments lagging
behind the moderate rise in new credit extensions.
Aside from the short-term role of net
debt formation, consumer credit plays another and more consistently sustaining part
in the consumer market. This year, for
example, repayments of loans made earlier
will total close to $60 billion. Through the
collection and relending process, purchasing power up to this amount is in effect
being transferred from past buyers-on-




credit, who are not necessarily contemplating further major purchases now, to currently active buyers who have made definite
decisions to spend.
Gross credit extensions to current buyers,
and recent trends in the relation of credit to
sales in specific consumer goods lines, are
discussed in the following section.

NOTE.—Sales are totals for new and used autos and for GAF retailers, taken, with minor adjustments from Census Bureau reports.
(The GAF lines include General Merchandise, Apparel, and Furniture
and appliances.) The allowance for trade-ins is based on a comparison between the Census figures and the estimates released by the
Office of Business Economics, which relate only to new goods and the
dealers' margins on used goods, (For this purpose most of the nonconsumer purchases deducted by OBE were added back.) Balances
financed are estimated as instalment credit extensions less an arbitrary
flat allowance for refinancing, finance charges, insurance, etc. The
cash outlay component is a residual, which includes use of charge
accounts and of revolving credit accounts fully liquidated each month.
Family survey data show relatively less borrowing to finance used
cars and lower values for auto trade-ins than are implied here, and
the proportions shown here may be subject to a considerable margin
of error. It is the movements over time, however, which are of
primary interest for the present purpose.

merit debt, and another 6 per cent consists
of home repair and modernization credit.
The remaining two-thirds of the total stems
from credit sales of autos and other consumer goods.
The role of instalment credit in financing these sales can be seen from available
rough estimates that cover new and used
passenger autos as well as sales at general
merchandise, apparel, and furniture and
household appliance stores, figures for which
are given in Table 2. The nonautomotive
lines mentioned are often referred to for
convenience as the "GAF" group, from the
initial letters of "General merchandise,"
"Apparel," and "Furniture."
Out of each billion dollars that consumers
have spent in these lines in recent years,
consumer instalment credit has supplied a

gross total estimated to be on the order
of $270 million.
Reliance on credit in 1964. Extensions of
auto and GAF credit, seasonally adjusted,
have been stepped up in recent quarters as
shown in Table 2. Sales advanced less than
extensions during 1963, but since the fourth
quarter of the year have increased more than
has credit volume.
Such differential movements may of course
arise out of the changing composition of
sales. A given volume of auto sales can
normally be expected to involve more borrowing than would the same volume of sales
of general merchandise. Autos generate
more credit per dollar of purchases, partly
because they require more substantial outlays at a particular time. From the fourth
quarter last year to the second quarter this
year sales of autos did rise less than sales
of general merchandise, and this accounted
in part for the less rapid growth in lending
than in sales.
Another element complicating interpretation is that marked increases in sales are
usually accompanied by larger increases in
credit. In order to set these factors aside and
gain historical perspective, the quarterly
movements in credit extensions since World
War II have been compared with the associated movements in sales separately for autos
and GAF. The average relationships found
have then been applied to the sales figures
for recent quarters to obtain "calculated"
values for credit extensions—the extensions
that would have accompanied the recent
uptrend in sales given the average relationship between sales and credit movements
that prevailed in 1948-62. Chart 2 shows
index numbers of these and of the extensions
that actually occurred—starting in each case
with the first quarter of 1963 as 100.
Comparison of the actual loan volume
with the calculated figures suggests that

CONSUMER INSTALMENT CREDIT

credit has been used less intensively this
year than last, relative to sales. This appears
to have been true for autos as well as for the
GAF lines, but especially for the latter.
From the second quarter of 1963 to the
third the actual use of credit moved above
the calculated amount based on sales. Extensions increased more in the GAF lines,
and declined less for autos, than might have
been expected from the movement of retail
activity, after allowance for seasonal factors.
In the fourth quarter, however, auto credit
fell slightly short of the mark indicated by
sales experience; and GAF extensions,
while remaining high, moved down a little
closer to their calculated volume.
This slight tendency to lessened reliance
on credit as 1963 ended was accelerated in
the first quarter of 1964: extensions rose
less than calculated, as cash business expanded.
Tn the spring quarter the movements of
GAF and auto credit diverged. The dependence of the GAF lines on credit declined still
further while borrowing for auto purchases
rose about parallel with the calculated movement—though continuing below the average
1963 relationship.
At GAF outlets, credit extensions actually
turned downward after Easter despite a continuing advance in seasonally adjusted sales.
It should be noted, however, that the sales
rise was particularly marked in some of the
less credit-intensive GAF lines.
The lessened dependence on credit shown
by sales in the GAF group in recent quarters
has reflected primarily the experience of department stores and mail-order outlets.
Gains in sales at furniture and appliance
stores have likewise been achieved with considerably less recourse to credit than usual.
At these stores, though, the difference between calculated and actual new borrowing
has been growing progressively smaller.




1115
Auto contract terms. As the model year

passes, there is a strong seasonal tendency
to write more auto contracts on terms that
are relatively easy. Chart 3 shows this and
also shows the continuing year-to-year
growth in the proportion of such contracts.
The terms "liberal" and "conservative"
are used here in a relative sense, just
as they were in the report Financing New
Car Purchases published by the Board of
Governors in 1957 but with some updating
of the class limits employed in that study.
These terms are not intended to imply any
judgment as to the risk of loss for borrower
or lender. The "liberal" new-car contracts
provide for a term to maturity over 30
months—usually 36 months—and for a loan
that represents more than 90 per cent of
dealer cost. For used cars, any combination
of a maturity period over 24 months plus a
dealer-cost ratio over 90 per cent is included
in the liberal category. The term "conserva-

1116

FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN • SEPTEMBER 1964

tive" refers to contracts with maxima of 30
months and 90 per cent on new cars, and of
24 months and 90 per cent on used cars.
According to these criteria, around 40 per
cent of the contracts studied are "mixed":
they are "liberal" in one respect and not in
the other.
In general, the changes seen in the chart
reflect the progressively more widespread use
of terms that are accepted as maxima, such
as the 36-month maturity, rather than any
substantial tendency to breach these maximum limits. The reported percentage of
contracts with maturities of more than 36
months, for example, is still well under 1
per cent of the total, as it has been for years.
Evidence is lacking as to whether there
has been an easing in the standards applied
to the borrowers' qualifications—the level of
their existing obligations in relation to income and assets, their employment stability
and place in the community, and so on.
Personal loans. Personal cash instalment
loans have traditionally served to meet family emergencies such as illness or unemployment.
The current trend, however, is toward
the use of this type of credit for large expenditures of a more nearly optional character.
These include the purchase of household
goods, as well as outlays for travel, education, and other personal projects and family
occasions. Loans of this nature may now
be more important in the total than are
loans to cover emergency expenses. It should
be noted here that in the personal loan
category the statistics for both extensions
and repayments, particularly the former, are
inflated by a substantial volume of loans to
consolidate earlier debts.
During the summer and early fall of 1963
five States raised the maximum size of loan
permissible under State small loan laws.
Four of these—Arizona, Connecticut, Indi-




ana, and Michigan—adopted a $1,000 ceiling, and West Virginia raised its ceiling to
$800. These statutory changes brought the
number of States with loan limits of $800
or more to 32, almost twice the number a
half decade earlier.
During and immediately after the period
when the changes occurred, the volume of
personal loans increased sharply; then they
leveled off for several months before resuming the gradual upward movement.
RATE OF REPAYMENTS

Collections on instalment debt passed a seasonally adjusted annual rate of $60 billion
for the first time in May of this year.
This amount represents just about 14 per
cent of disposable personal income, the largest proportion on record. The ratio moved
above 12 per cent on an annual basis for
the first time in 1955, and for 1960 it passed
13 per cent. It held at 13.6 per cent through
the first half of 1963 and at 13.8 per cent
in the latter half before rising to 14 per cent
at the turn of the year. Factors in the uptrend, and possible implications for future
debt formation, were analyzed in the May
1963 issue of the BULLETIN.
The initial effect of the tax cut last March
was undoubtedly to reduce the ratio slightly.
But with the total debt rising and with collection rates up as disposable income
spurted, repayments quickly regained their
earlier relationship to income.
At present, the burden of repayments is
being carried with little or no apparent rise
in financial difficulties among marginal borrowers. In recent months the statistics of reported bankruptcies and delinquencies have
taken a relatively favorable turn by comparison with 1963.
Consumer bankruptcies are not numerous
in absolute terms and are geographically
concentrated in a few States, but the general

CONSUMER INSTALMENT CREDIT

trend has been rather sharply upward for
a decade or more. The sustained rise in the
number of bankruptcy petitions that began
in mid-1962 has slowed in recent quarters,
however, and this spring a dip was reported
for the first time in 2 years on a seasonally
adjusted basis.
Delinquency rates on consumer loans at
banks are dominated by cyclical conditions,
but behind the cyclical swings that have occurred in the postwar period there was a
broad downtrend through the mid-1950's
and then a limited rise to secondary peaks in
early 1961 and late 1963. A series of declines followed in the early months of 1964.
Now the rate reported by a sample of banks
is not far from the 1957-59 average.
Reports on delinquencies on home mortgages suggest that consumers have met their
repayment obligations about as regularly as
a year ago, partly in response to more vigorous collection policies by many lenders. Although delinquency rates on Governmentunderwritten loans around midyear were
somewhat above or little changed from yearearlier levels, available evidence suggests
some decline for conventional home loans,
which account for most of the outstanding
debt.
FUND SOURCES

The various lenders' shares of total instalment paper outstanding reflect in part the
general competitive positions of the institutions themselves in obtaining and lending
funds. They also reflect indirectly the relatively greater strength since mid-1963 of demand for auto and other consumer goods
credit and the stability of demand for
home repair and maintenance credit.
Thus the rise in auto loan volume was especially important to the commercial banks,




1117
which have more than half of their consumer
loan business in this category. The recent
lack of growth in home repair and modernization lending partly offset this advantage.
Bank credit. Among the immediate sources
of consumer credit, banks have been playing
a progressively larger role ever since the end
of 1955—which was their low point for the
decade. By mid-1963 their share of consumer instalment paper outstanding had
moved up 4 percentage points and amounted
to 41 per cent of the total. The same fraction was reported this summer.
Besides lending directly to consumers and
buying instalment paper from retailers and
others, banks make a substantial indirect
contribution to consumer credit by lending
to finance companies and retailers. It is estimated that about 10 per cent of all consumer
instalment credit is thus indirectly bankfinanced, as against 20 per cent of the alllender total in 1952.
Directly or indirectly the banks still provide more than half of all the funds used in
consumer instalment credit, though their
share of the total has moved down in recent
years from a high near 60 per cent estimated
for 1952.
Other credit sources. Consumer finance
companies have retained their one-twelfth
share of all instalment credit outstanding this
year. Credit unions have moved up a little,
and now hold more than one-tenth of the
total. Retailers have been financing less and
less of their customers' credit purchases
in recent years, and this trend continued
through the latest period.
Sales finance companies, supplying credit
through auto dealers, mail-order companies,
and other retailers, hold about one-fourth
of all consumer instalment debt. Their share
of the total has declined a little in recent
years, but it leveled off in the latter part of

1963 and moved up fractionally in early
1964.
Sales finance companies have benefited
this year from the strong demand for auto
credit—in which they have specialized—
even though they have not quite kept pace
with the banks in the auto field. In addition
they have increased their share of other consumer goods paper outstanding.
Finance company funds. In mid-1964 finance companies of all types taken together
held about $19 billion of consumer instalment paper. The companies had obtained a
little over three-fourths of this sum through
borrowing. This was about the same proportion as a year earlier, but up significantly




from the 70 per cent estimated for 1961
and 1962.
The rise can be traced to the short-term
component. Long-term debt is estimated to
have financed around 40 per cent of receivables, as of June 30 dates, throughout the
1961-64 period. The proportion financed
with short-term funds rose meanwhile from
30 to 37 per cent. As Table 3 shows, this
rise was largely in the form of an increased
use of nonbank funds.
Finance companies have made increasing
use of the commercial paper market in raising short-term funds in recent years, as nonfinancial corporations have made a rising
volume of such funds available. The paper
market offers flexible rates and maturity
dates, without the need to maintain compensating balances such as many banks require
against direct loans.
The competition for these corporate funds
has stiffened, however, with the step-up in
borrowing by the finance companies shown
in the table, the rising use of certificates of
deposit, and the increase in the Treasury bill
rate. Rates on directly placed finance company paper maturing in 3 to 6 months
have risen by half in a 3-year period—from
2.50 per cent in mid-1961 to 3.75 per cent
this summer.

Treasury and Federal Reserve Foreign
Exchange Operations
This fifth joint interim report reflects the
Treasury—Federal Reserve policy of making
available additional information on foreign
exchange operations from time to time.
The Federal Reserve Bank of New York acts
as agent for both the Treasury and the Federal Open Market Committee of the Federal
Reserve System in the conduct of foreign exchange operations.

This report was prepared by Charles A.
Coombs, Vice President in charge of the
Foreign Department of the Federal Reserve
Bank of New York, and Special Manager,
System Open Market Account. It covers the
period March-August 1964. Previous reports were published in the BULLETINS for
September 1962, March and September
1963, and March 1964.

March
through August 1964, international credit
facilities, both bilateral and multilateral,
were again frequently called upon to cushion
the impact upon gold and foreign exchange
reserves of payments imbalances among the
major trading nations. Official operations in
the forward markets helped to smooth temporary swings during the period, while the
Gold Pool arrangements continued to operate effectively. Transfers of gold among the
central banks also fulfilled their customary
role of helping to settle payments imbalances, but the volume of such official gold
transfers declined still further. The decline
reflected both a tendency toward narrowing
of payments imbalances as well as economies in the use of gold made possible by
the development of international credit facilities.
At the short-term end of the credit spectrum, the Federal Reserve swap network had
been broadened by late 1963 to include 12
foreign official institutions, involving reciprocal credit lines totaling $2,050 million.

During the period under review the shortterm credit needs of the various central
banks concerned were readily accommodated
under the existing swap lines and other central bank credit facilities. From March
through late August, drawings by the Federal Reserve and by three foreign central
banks amounted to $262 million.
From the inception of the swap network
in March 1962 through late August 1964,
total central bank drawings amounted to

$1,870 million. Of this amount $1,753 million, or 94 per cent, was repaid, generally
within 6 months. The Federal Reserve
shifted from a peak net debtor position of
$342 million on December 13, 1963, to a
net creditor position of $44.5 million in late
August 1964. Drawings on the Federal Reserve swap network outstanding in late August included $80 million by the Bank of
Japan, partially offset by Federal Reserve
use of $28 million drawn on the Netherlands

Bank and $7.5 million on the National Bank
of Belgium.
The Federal Reserve and U.S. Treasury,
in cooperation with foreign central banks,
also conducted short-term forward operations in sterling, German marks, Swiss
francs, and Canadian dollars, in order to restrain short-term money flows arising either
from speculation or interest arbitrage. Over
the period the Treasury reduced its commitments in the forward markets from $248

million to $82.5 million, all in Swiss francs,
on August 31, while the Federal Reserve
position on market transactions was in balance on the latter date. The central banks
of Germany, Canada, Switzerland, and Italy
also operated from time to time in the
forward markets, and in each case achieved
the desired effect on the flow of funds.
As noted in the report of the Deputies of
the Group of Ten, "These demonstrations of
close central bank cooperation are themselves an effective deterrent to speculative
movements. Their informality, speed, and
flexibility make them especially suitable as a
first line—and short-term—defense against
sudden balance of payments pressures. Over
the past several years, they have mobilized
massive resources in a short time to combat
and limit speculative and crisis situations.
Their success has greatly reduced the threat
to official reserves from disequilibrating
movements of private short-term capital." *
In the medium-term segment of the international credit spectrum, the U.S. Treasury
issued an additional $474 million of bonds
in the foreign currency series, while redeeming $200 million for a net addition of $274
million equivalent. The total of foreign currency securities outstanding on August 31
amounted to $1,035 million, distributed as
shown in Table 3.
Of the $474 million of foreign currency
bonds issued during the period under review,
$70 million were employed to fund indebtedness previously incurred by the Federal Reserve by drawings upon the swap network.
Of total Federal Reserve repayments of swap
drawings since the inception of the network,
$120 million, or roughly 9 per cent, have
been so financed.

Also in the medium-term credit area, the
United States drew $250 million of foreign
currencies during the first 8 months of the
year under a $500 million standby agreement with the International Monetary Fund
(renewed for another year in July 1964) in
order to facilitate repayments to the Fund
by other member countries. In other sizable
Fund transactions, the Bank of Italy in
March drew a total of $225 million. Also
in March Japan was granted standby facilities in the amount of $305 million. In August the United Kingdom renewed its standby arrangement of $1,000 million with the
Fund.
Liquid resources for cushioning payments
imbalances have thus continued to be flexibly provided through the international credit
machinery. As noted in the report of the
Deputies of the Group of Ten, "A country's
liquidity is no longer measured solely by the
level of its reserves in the form of gold and
reserve currency balances (primary reserves). There is now a variety of ways in
which monetary authorities can, at need, replenish their balances of the currencies used
for operations. Primary reserves are thus
supplemented by a broad spectrum of other
resources and facilities. At one end of this
range come 'other reserves' of only slightly
less liquidity but of unquestioned availabil-

1122

FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN • SEPTEMBER 1964

ity; at the other end of the range are negotiated credits, including those which will only
be available when an international institution is satisfied that the borrower will employ
effective adjustment processes to correct his
deficit."
STERLING

In early February sterling came under some
speculative selling pressure. The main factors involved seemed to be uncertainties generated by expectations of a general election
in the spring, by publication of January trade
data showing an unusually large trade deficit,
and by market rumors of a revaluation of
the German mark. These speculative pressures were resisted by Bank of England intervention in the exchange markets and, in
a minor way, by Federal Reserve purchases
of sterling in New York.
On February 27 the Bank of England
raised its discount rate from 4 to 5 per cent.
This decisive action produced an immediate
strengthening of market confidence in
sterling and the sterling rate recovered
sharply. Following the increase in the discount rate, the British Treasury bill rate
rose to a level about 0.60 per cent per
annum over the U.S. bill rate, but the forward discount on sterling promptly widened,
and the covered arbitrage margin on Treasury bills settled at about zero. Almost simultaneously with the British discount rate
increase, the Federal Reserve and U.S.
Treasury joined forces with the German Federal Bank in both spot and forward operations in German marks. As detailed elsewhere in this report, these operations seemed
to achieve their objective of dispelling market rumors of a possible change in the mark
parity, and thereby also helped to relieve
the pressure on sterling that had been coming from this source.




In early April sterling strengthened further
following the announcement that the British
general elections would not be held until October. Immediately thereafter commercial
interests that had previously postponed their
purchases bought sterling to cover their nearterm requirements, and the spot rate for the
pound sterling rose to $2.8002 by the end of
the month. Demand from this source, together with the continued strength of the
payments positions of the overseas sterling
area, bolstered sterling during April and
most of May.
In the last few days of May, however, sterling once again came under pressure as the
covering of commitments was completed
and as very tight conditions in several continental money markets, as well as in the
Euro-dollar market, drew funds from London. Moreover, toward the end of June the
usual midyear "window dressing" by continental banks put additional temporary
pressure on sterling. To temper the impact
of these movements of funds on official
reserves, the Bank of England on June 30
drew $15 million against its $500 million
swap line with the Federal Reserve. The
drawing was repaid on July 13. Also in June,
the Federal Reserve Bank of New York purchased for U.S. Treasury account approximately $6 million in sterling.
As the credit squeeze in continental European money market centers continued into
July, sterling was subject to recurrent selling
pressure and the spot rate on sterling moved
downward with a minimum of official support to a low for the month of $2.7874 on
July 20. In a market aware of British Government determination to defend the sterling
parity with the ready support, if needed, of
the IMF standby arrangement, the Federal
Reserve swap line, and credit facilities at
other central banks, the decline of the spot

1123

FOREIGN EXCHANGE OPERATIONS

rate was taken in stride with no speculative
reaction developing. Moreover, as the spot
rate declined, the technical position of sterling was correspondingly improved by the
increasing risk of a rebound of the spot rate
and consequent loss to those with short positions in sterling. Again reflecting the underlying strength of market confidence in the
sterling parity, the discount on forward sterling also tended to narrow as the spot rate
declined.
The strength of the forward sterling rate,
while gratifying to all concerned, nevertheless created certain complications. As the
discount on forward sterling tightened, the
covered interest arbitrage differential favoring London on Treasury bills became correspondingly more attractive and by July 13
had reached the level of 0.44 per cent per
annum. To forestall private covered outflows
in response to this arbitrage inducement, the
Federal Reserve with the agreement of the
British authorities intervened in the market
to widen out the discount on forward sterling
and thereby reduce the arbitrage differential.
This intervention, amounting to a total of
$28 million equivalent during a 5-day period, was accomplished by swap transactions
in the New York market, with the Federal
Reserve Bank of New York, for System
account, buying sterling spot and selling
sterling forward against U.S. dollars. At the
same time, on July 20, the Treasury announced that it was offering an additional
$1 billion of Treasury bills to help strengthen
U.S. bill rates. By July 23 the arbitrage
margin on Treasury bills in favor of London had been reduced to 0.32 per cent per
annum, and intervention was discontinued.
In mid-August sterling once again came
under pressure in the spot market as continental holders apparently shifted funds
from sterling into the Euro-dollar market.




Spot sterling reached a low in New York of
$2.7839 on August 27, but the forward rate
stayed relatively firm as market confidence
in the sterling parity remained undisturbed.
On March 31 the Federal Reserve sold to
the U.S. Treasury $10 million equivalent
of sterling, which was used by the Treasury,
together with $5 million equivalent of its
own sterling holdings, to acquire $15 million equivalent of Swiss francs through a
sterling-Swiss franc swap with the Bank for
International Settlements. Federal Reserve
and Treasury swaps of this nature—involving the exchange of one foreign currency
for another—have now included five European currencies and amounted to a total
of $115 million equivalent. Of this total,
$51 million equivalent remained outstanding at the end of August—$13 million equivalent for System account and $38 million
equivalent for Treasury account—all involving the purchase of Swiss francs against
sterling.
GERMAN MARK

During 1963, there was almost continuous
upward pressure on the German mark. The
pressure reflected mainly a substantial increase in the German foreign trade surplus,
large inflows of long-term capital, and occasional inflows of short-term funds in response
to tight money market conditions or hedging
operations. Although the Federal Reserve
frequently drew upon its $250 million swap
line with the German Federal Bank in order
to cushion these pressures, all drawings effected during 1963 had been repaid by January 9, 1964, through operations summarized in the preceding report in this series.
In late January and February 1964, buying pressure on the mark resumed in even
greater force, with indications of speculative
overtones developing. To counter these pres-

1124

FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN • SEPTEMBER 1964

sures, the German Federal Bank intervened
strongly in Frankfurt—buying dollars at
rates just below the ceiling on the mark. In
addition, the Federal Reserve made sizable
new drawings on the swap line to support
market intervention in New York and to
absorb dollars taken in by the German
Federal Bank. During the first half of March,
Federal Reserve drawings totaled $55 million equivalent.
These operations in the spot market were
reinforced by a resumption—for the first
time since 1961—of joint operations by the
U.S. Treasury and the German Federal
Bank in the forward market in an effort to
dispel rumors of a prospective change in the
mark parity. Sales of 3-month forward marks
amounted to approximately $21 million
equivalent between the end of February and
the middle of March at rates ranging between 0.96 and 0.75 per cent per annum
premium on the mark. All of these contracts
were liquidated without difficulty at maturity.
On March 23 an important turning point
occurred as the German Government announced its intention to propose to Parliament the imposition of a 25 per cent withholding tax on the interest income of nonresidents. This action not only checked the
long-term capital inflow, but actually induced liquidation of a considerable volume
of foreign investments in German fixedinterest securities. Earlier, on March 10, the
German Federal Bank had already taken
steps to encourage an outflow of German
funds into dollar investments by providing
dollars on a swap basis—selling dollars spot
and repurchasing them 90 to 180 days forward—to German commercial banks for
purchases of U.S. Treasury bills at a preferential discount of 0.50 per cent per annum
on the forward dollar. This compared with




a market discount at the time of more than
0.75 per cent per annum. By April 15 the
total of such dollar investment swaps outstanding had risen to $186 million. As a
consequence of the outflows on both shortand long-term capital account, the exchange
market moved into a much closer balance
that continued to prevail during April and
May.
In these circumstances, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York was able in late
March to acquire for System account $20
million equivalent of marks and thereby to
reduce its swap drawings from $55 million
to $35 million equivalent. This remaining
drawing was liquidated on March 31 by
purchase from the Bank of Italy of $35
million of marks originating in an Italian
drawing of marks from the IMF. On the
same date, the U.S. Treasury acquired $45
million equivalent of marks from the same
source. The Treasury subsequently employed
the bulk of these mark funds to absorb
dollars taken in by the German Federal
Bank.
These exchange transactions illustrate
how the United States, because of the
reserve-currency role of the dollar, now
responds to the ebb and flow of the payments
balances of foreign countries. During the
winter months of 1963-64 the large surplus
in the German balance of payments was
accompanied by a very large deficit in Italian
payments. This imbalance within the Common Market brought about a simultaneous
weakening of the lira and a strengthening
of the mark against the dollar, the currency
in which both the Bank of Italy and the
German Federal Bank customarily settle
their international accounts. These exchange
market pressures were intensified by widespread rumors of a revaluation of the mark
and a devaluation of the lira.

FOREIGN EXCHANGE OPERATIONS

As a short-run defensive measure, recourse to central bank credit, in the form
of Bank of Italy drawings of dollars from
the Federal Reserve and Federal Reserve
drawings of marks from the German Federal
Bank, served to temper these potentially
disturbing market pressures with benefit for
all concerned. Consequently when the Italian Government had recourse to the IMF, it
was entirely appropriate for the Federal Reserve and the U.S. Treasury, which had operated to cushion the immediate impact of
both the Italian deficit and the German surplus, to liquidate their mark commitments
by acquiring marks drawn by Italy from
the IMF.
A second aspect of U.S. involvment in
the German-Italian payments imbalance
was the repayment by the U.S. Treasury
of $200 million of lira bonds issued to the
Bank of Italy in 1962 and the issuance to
the German Federal Bank of $200 million
equivalent of mark bonds. In effect, mediumterm foreign currency bonds, previously
acquired by the Bank of Italy in partial
settlement of the surplus in its balance of
payments, were transformed, as had been
originally understood, into a usable reserve
asset as Italy shifted from a creditor to a
debtor position. The lira bonds were redeemed and, in practice, transferred to the
German Federal Bank, becoming an attractive investment medium denominated in
German marks in which Germany could hold
a part of its balance of payments surplus.
The rationale of this operation had been
foreshadowed in a joint central bank report
published in August 1963, which suggested: 2

Bundesbank), Monthly Review, Federal Reserve Bank
of New York, August 1963, pp. 114-21.




1125
"Even after the United States has regained
equilibrium in its payments accounts, certain countries will from time to time move
into a strong creditor position which will,
in turn, expose the United States, as
banker for the international financial
system, to the risk of net drains upon its
gold stock. We have previously suggested
that informal understandings should be
sought whereby the creditor countries
might attempt, either through greater
flexibility in their gold policy or through
more extensive use of forward exchange
and related operations, to avoid causing
a net drain upon the United States gold
stock. To round out such a system of
minimizing net losses of gold by the
United States as a result of pronounced
surplus and deficit positions in other countries, the United States might also find it
useful on occasion to provide the creditor
country with an investment outlet for its
surplus in the form of special bonds
denominated in the creditor's currency."
Still a third aspect of the pivotal role of
the United States in the international financial mechanism was a sale of $200 million of
gold by the Bank of Italy to the U.S. Treasury in order to replenish the dollar reserves
of the Bank of Italy. The Treasury immediately resold this gold to the German Federal
Bank in recognition of the fact that the
Italian deficit and German surplus were, to
a considerable extent, opposite sides of the
same coin.
No further operations in German marks
for either Federal Reserve or Treasury account occurred until early June when a brief
revival of speculation concerning a mark
revaluation was met by sales on the New
York market of $5 million of marks for
Federal Reserve account and $6 million for
U.S. Treasury account. The German Federal

1126

FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN • SEPTEMBER 1964

Bank simultaneously supported the dollar
with sizable operations in Frankfurt, and
on June 3 the Treasury employed $40 million equivalent of mark balances acquired
at the time of the Italian drawing on the
IMF to absorb dollars taken in by the German Federal Bank. Buying pressure on the
mark was further intensified in mid-June
by commercial bank window-dressing operations, and $150 million of the resultant inflow to the German Federal Bank was
absorbed by an additional Treasury issue
of mark-denominated bonds. This latest
issue raised the total of such mark bonds
outstanding to $628 million equivalent.
On July 9 the German Federal Bank announced an increase in commercial bank
reserve requirements effective August 1. The
mark again was subject to upward pressure,
and the U.S. Treasury sold a total of $4
million equivalent of marks in New York
on July 9 and 10. To counter possible repatriation of short-term bank funds, the
German Federal Bank on July 13 reduced
the investment swap discount on forward
dollars from 0.50 to 0.25 per cent per
annum. The demand for marks then eased,
and no further operations were undertaken
by either the Federal Reserve or U.S. Treasury through the end of August.
ITALIAN LIRA

The Italian lira came under increasingly
heavy selling pressure during the winter of
1963-64 as a result of a widening payments
deficit on current account, sizable capital
outflows, and repayments of foreign indebtedness by the Italian commercial banks.
To deal with the situation, the Italian authorities initiated various corrective policy measures, which were expected to take effect over
a period of months. Meanwhile, as heavy
drains upon the Bank of Italy's reserves con-




tinued, the need for short-term credit and
other assistance became clear.
Under the $250 million swap line with
the Federal Reserve, the Bank of Italy made
three successive drawings of $50 million
each in October 1963, January 1964, and
March 1964. Acquisition of lire by the U.S.
authorities for eventual repayment of $200
million equivalent of lira bonds issued to
the Bank of Italy in 1962 also helped the
Bank of Italy to replenish its liquid reserves.
In anticipation of such repayments, the U.S.
Treasury had purchased $67 million equivalent of lire from the Bank of Italy in the
early fall of 1963. Of this total, $17 million
was temporarily employed in a swap against
Swiss francs with the BIS.
This program of advance acquisition of
lire to meet prospective maturities of lira
bonds was carried further by Federal Reserve
purchases of $50 million equivalent of lire
in December 1963, another $50 million in
January 1964, and a final purchase of $33
million in March. These lire were simultaneously sold forward to the U.S. Treasury,
which redeemed one $50 million lira bond
at its first maturity on March 9, and on April
1 prepaid the remaining $150 million of
lira bonds outstanding. These Federal Reserve and Treasury operations, totaling $350
million, cushioned the decline in the Bank
of Italy's reserves and thereby helped restrain
speculative pressure.
During the week of March 9 to 14, 1964,
an Italian delegation, headed by Governor
Carli of the Bank of Italy, visited Washington to discuss with the World Bank and
the International Monetary Fund various
possible sources of financing for Italy's
longer-term investment requirements and its
expected further balance of payments deficits. In the midst of these discussions the lira
was suddenly struck by a burst of specula-

FOREIGN EXCHANGE OPERATIONS

tion, which brought heavy pressure not only
on the spot rate but also on the forward rate,
which for a 3-month maturity moved to a
discount of 7 per cent per annum. In this
dangerous situation, an immediate and
massive reinforcement of the Italian reserve
position was clearly called for, and within
48 hours the Italian authorities were able to
announce that approximately $1 billion of
external assistance was at their disposal.
This credit package included: (1) a $100
million swap arrangement with the U.S.
Treasury (in addition to the partly drawn
swap facility with the Federal Reserve System), (2) a $200 million standby credit
from the Export-Import Bank, (3) $250
million in credits of up to 3 years from the
U.S. Commodity Credit Corporation, and
(4) short-term credit facilities of $250 million from the Bank of England and the
German Federal Bank. Had time permitted,
other foreign official sources of short-term
credit could readily have been tapped.
Announcement of this credit package immediately broke the speculative wave. As
market confidence in the lira revived, the
Bank of Italy temporarily withdrew its support from the spot market and allowed the
lira to decline to a level close to par, where it
settled in relatively orderly and balanced
trading. At the same time, the discount on
the 3-month forward lira narrowed from
7 to 3 per cent, further reflecting the improvement in market confiidence.
At the end of March the Italian Government made a drawing of $225 million on the
IMF in various currencies. Of this total,
$80 million equivalent of German marks
were immediately sold to the Federal Reserve and the U.S. Treasury, and $20 million equivalent of guilders to the Federal Reserve.
These transactions enabled the Federal




1127
Reserve to settle outstanding commitments
in the respective currencies and provided
marks to the Treasury to meet possible future
operational needs. In June, against the
background of substantial earlier movements
of funds from Italy to Switzerland, the Bank
of Italy negotiated a $100 million equivalent
lira-Swiss franc swap with the Swiss National Bank. In this instance, too, the entire
Swiss franc proceeds were sold by the Bank
of Italy to the Federal Reserve for dollars.
(The System then employed these Swiss
francs to liquidate outstanding Swiss franc
indebtedness to the Swiss National Bank.)
With its dollar reserve position reinforced
not only by bilateral credits and the Fund
drawing, but also by net accruals of dollars
in the exchange market, the Bank of Italy
proceeded to repay during the second quarter
of the year all of its previous drawings of
$150 million on the Federal Reserve as well
as the short-term credit drawn under the
facility provided by the German Federal
Bank. In addition, about one-third of the
$100 million credit from the Swiss National
Bank had also been repaid by the end of
August. (No drawings had been made under
the credit facilities made available by the
U.S. Treasury or the Bank of England. Nor
has there as yet been any utilization of the
credits made available by the Commodity
Credit Corporation or the Export-Import
Bank, although use of these credits is expected to begin shortly.)
One of the most satisfactory aspects of this
display of international cooperation in
beating back a speculative attack on the
Italian lira was that the provision of massive credit assistance to Italy more or
less coincided with a turning point in
the Italian economic and financial scene.
During the first quarter of 1964, the Italian
balance of payments had registered a deficit

1128

FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN • SEPTEMBER 1964

of $436 million. This turned into a surplus
of $226 million in the second quarter as the
corrective policy measures previously initiated by the Italian authorities began to
take effect and as a reversal in the leads and
lags brought about the covering of short
positions in lire. In early July a governmental crisis generated a temporary speculative flurry, but forceful operations in the
forward market by the Bank of Italy through
the agency of the Federal Reserve Bank of
New York provided reassurance, and the
speculation quickly subsided. Indeed, Italy
gained reserves during the summer and on
September 1 repaid $65 million of its $225
million IMF drawing. This repayment reduced the Fund's holdings of lire to 75 per
cent of the Italian quota. Thus, Italy's obligation to the Fund has been completely
liquidated.
As reported in previous articles in this
series, the U.S. Treasury in January 1962
had undertaken to share with the Bank of
Italy contracts to purchase forward dollars
that that institution had entered into with
Italian commercial banks in order to encourage a re-export of dollars during the
period of heavy balance of payments surpluses. The initial value of the contracts
taken over by the U.S. Treasury in January
1962 amounted to $200 million. Total U.S.
commitments to supply forward lire rose
to a peak of $500 million in August of that
year, and thereafter—with some fluctuations
—generally declined as Italian commercial
banks reduced their dollar holdings. The
last of the contracts were reacquired by the
Italian authorities in March of this year,
thus fully liquidating the Treasury's forward
lira commitments.
SWISS FRANC

Very heavy inflows of short-term funds into
Switzerland at the end of 1963 reflected the




usual window-dressing operations by Swiss
commercial banks. To absorb part of the
resultant accumulation of dollars on the
books of the Swiss National Bank, the
Federal Reserve increased its swap drawings
in Swiss francs on the BIS from $95 million
to $145 million equivalent and on the Swiss
National Bank from $55 million to $75 million, for a combined total of $220 million.
Prior to this year-end bulge, outstanding
drawings during most of the last quarter
ranged around $150 million. During the
autumn, the Treasury had also entered into
forward transactions in Swiss francs of nearly
$150 million equivalent.
Some easing of the Swiss franc developed
after the year-end, but continuing inflows
of capital during the first quarter limited
the usual seasonal weakening. Moreover,
interest rates in Switzerland had risen rapidly from the fall of 1963 through the first
quarter of 1964. The rate paid by Swiss
banks on 3-month time deposits, which had
ranged from about 2.65 per cent to 3 per
cent during most of 1963, moved up to 3.25
per cent in March, while Euro-Swiss franc
deposit rates, which closely reflect credit
conditions in Switzerland, advanced V2 of
a percentage point to 3.62 per cent during
the first quarter. Consequently, opportunities
for the Federal Reserve to acquire Swiss
francs for settlement of its outstanding Swiss
franc indebtedness developed more slowly
than expected, and by mid-April it had paid
off only $45 million equivalent of its drawings on the BIS.
In April a severe tightening of the Swiss
credit market pushed interest rates up further
and drove the Swiss franc to the ceiling
once more, and the Swiss National Bank was
forced to take in a sizable amount of dollars
at that level. Part of this inflow was absorbed

FOREIGN EXCHANGE OPERATIONS

when the Federal Reserve made a new drawing of $25 million equivalent on its swap
line with the Swiss National Bank, thus putting the Federal Reserve debt in Swiss francs
back to $200 million.
In order to curb inflationary pressures in
the Swiss economy, the Swiss Government in
March had placed restrictions on construction activity and had authorized the Swiss
National Bank to introduce measures limiting credit expansion by banks and discouraging the inflow of foreign funds. Similar
arrangements between the central bank and
the banks had been in effect for several years
on a voluntary basis. The gentlemen's agreements concerning restrictions on domestic
credit growth took on legal force in May
1964. In an effort to halt the heavy inflow
of foreign capital and the rise in dollar holdings of the Swiss National Bank, restraints
on the inflow of funds from abroad were
implemented at the end of March. All Swiss
banking institutions were forbidden to pay
interest on foreign deposits received after
January 1, 1964, and were required to invest in foreign currency assets or to deposit
with the Swiss National Bank any increase
since January 1, 1964, in their net Swiss
franc liabilities to foreigners.
While these measures were successful in
halting further inflows of foreign funds,
they did not of course prevent the repatriation by Swiss banks of funds already held
abroad. Since the credit squeeze in Switzerland was continuing, there seemed little likelihood of any reversal of the previous inflow
of funds. As a result, following the Federal
Reserve swap drawing in April, the Swiss
and U.S. authorities agreed on a combination of special measures to liquidate all of
the Federal Reserve swap drawings and reduce the Treasury's outstanding forward
contracts.
The first step was taken in May, when the




1129
U.S. Treasury issued to the BIS a $70 million Swiss franc bond. To acquire the Swiss
francs, the BIS had issued 3-month promissory notes to the Swiss banks. The Swiss
franc proceeds of this bond issue were then
sold to the Federal Reserve, which immediately repaid an equivalent amount of its
Swiss franc debt to the BIS. The second step
came in June when, as previously noted, the
Bank of Italy entered into a $100 million
lira-Swiss franc swap agreement with the
Swiss National Bank. The Bank of Italy sold
the Swiss francs it acquired to the Federal
Reserve, which retired the remainder of its
Swiss franc debt to the Swiss National Bank.
At the end of June the Federal Reserve
paid off the remaining $30 million of its
swap drawings on the BIS with francs
obtained in conjunction with a sale of gold
to the Swiss National Bank by the Treasury.
The Federal Reserve swap arrangements
with the BIS and the Swiss National Bank
thus reverted to a standby basis.
Meanwhile, interest rates in Switzerland
had risen still further as the heavy demands
imposed on the Swiss money and capital
markets by the continuing high level of economic activity further squeezed the liquidity
position of Swiss banks and firms. The interest rate on 3-month deposits reached 3.50
per cent in June, an increase of about 0.75
per cent over the previous year, while the
average yield on government bonds moved
up to 4.05 per cent, as compared with 3.15
per cent a year earlier. To relieve the squeeze
on their liquidity positions and to satisfy
midyear window-dressing purposes, the
Swiss commercial banks made further sizable repatriations of funds during June.
These commercial bank operations caused
the Swiss National Bank once again to take
in a sizable amount of dollars. In July the
unwinding of some window-dressing operations and an easing of the Swiss money

1130

FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN • SEPTEMBER 1964

market brought about only a partial reversal of the previous inflows. In these circumstances, the U.S. Treasury issued to the Swiss
National Bank on August 4 an additional
Swiss franc bond in the amount of $52 million equivalent and used the proceeds to
absorb an equivalent amount of dollars on
the books of the Swiss National Bank. At the
same time the Swiss National Bank placed
with the Swiss commercial banks an equivalent amount of "sterilization rescriptions" (a
form of short-term paper issued by the Swiss
Confederation) to reduce excess domestic
liquidity.
As noted above, the U.S. Treasury in the
latter half of 1963 had sold in the market
nearly $150 million equivalent of 3-month
forward Swiss francs to encourage outward
investment flows by Swiss commercial banks.
By the end of the year the Treasury's forward
commitments had been reduced to $121 million. Additional sales of $9 million equivalent occurred in January, and the outstanding contracts were rolled over at maturity
until May 1964, when $9 million equivalent
was paid off. An additional $19 million was
liquidated in June, and in August, at U.S.
Treasury initiative, a further $19 million
was paid off at maturity. This left a total of
$83 million still outstanding. In addition,
there were outstanding $38 million equivalent in U.S. Treasury Swiss-franc liabilities
arising from swaps of sterling for Swiss
francs with the BIS. During this period a
$17 million swap of lire for Swiss francs was
liquidated, and a $15 million sterling—Swiss
franc swap was substituted.
Taking the Federal Reserve swap drawings and Treasury forward commitments together, temporary financing had reached a
maximum of nearly $350 million at the end
of 1963. By the end of August 1964, the
swap drawings had been entirely paid off
and, as indicated above, Treasury forward




commitments in the market had been reduced to $83 million. A good part of this
reduction in short-term Swiss franc commitments, however, was achieved through
the issuance of $122 million equivalent of
Swiss franc bonds, the sale of $30 million
in gold to the Swiss National Bank, and
purchases of Swiss francs from the Swiss
National Bank, thereby increasing that
Bank's dollar holdings.
NETHERLANDS GUILDER

The Netherlands guilder declined during the
first 2 months of 1964 as the Dutch trade
position began to weaken, and toward the
end of March the Federal Reserve Bank of
New York was able to purchase for System
account $5 million equivalent of guilders
from the Netherlands Bank. At about the
same time, the System acquired $20.1 million equivalent of guilders from the Bank of
Italy, which had taken guilders as part of
its drawing on the IMF. With these guilder
funds, the Federal Reserve on April 2
paid off at maturity its outstanding $25 million equivalent swap drawing from the
Netherlands Bank, thus placing the entire
$100 million swap arrangement on a standby
basis.
During most of the second quarter the
guilder continued to decline as the Dutch
trade deficit increased. In early June the
Netherlands Bank raised its discount rate
by ¥L of a percentage point to AVi per cent.
The money market then began to tighten,
and in July Dutch commercial banks repatriated funds, causing a strengthening of
the spot guilder. The Netherlands Bank took
in dollars in moderating the rise in the rate,
and during the first week in August the
Federal Reserve drew $20 million equivalent of guilders under the swap line and immediately used the guilders to absorb some
of the Netherlands Bank's dollar accruals.

FOREIGN EXCHANGE OPERATIONS

On August 10 the Federal Reserve drew
another $10 million equivalent of guilders
in anticipation of possible market operations.
Subsequently it sold $8 million equivalent to
the Netherlands Bank to mop up additional
dollars held by that Bank.
JAPANESE YEN

During most of the first half of 1964 the
Japanese yen remained at or close to its
floor, as a continuing increase in Japan's
deficit on current account was covered only
in part by long- and short-term capital inflows. The Japanese authorities had initiated
a series of restraint measures beginning in
October 1963, and in March of this year the
Bank of Japan raised its discount rate from
5.84 per cent to 6.57 per cent. In order
to avoid further deterioration in its reserve position until the restraint measures
should bring about the desired effect, as well
as to support confidence in the yen in connection with the acceptance by Japan on
April 1 of Article VIII status under the
IMF Articles of Agreement, the Bank of
Japan on April 30 drew $50 million under
the $150 million swap arrangement with the
Federal Reserve—the first use of this facility since its inception in October 1963. The
pressure on reserves continued over the summer months, and on July 30 the Bank of
Japan renewed the $50 million drawing for
another 3 months and on July 31 drew an
additional $30 million under the swap arrangement. In August, however, Japanese
reserves registered an increase.
CANADIAN DOLLAR

The spot market for Canadian dollars was
relatively quiet through the first half of
1964, but there was considerable activity
in the forward market as a result of grain
sales to the Soviet Union. These sales generated heavy demands on the part of grain
dealers for Canadian dollars against U.S.




1131
dollars for future delivery. (The contracts
with the U.S.S.R. called for payment in U.S.
dollars, whereas the grain companies had to
purchase the wheat from the Canadian
Wheat Board with Canadian dollars.) After
meeting the grain dealers' demand—and
after covering these forward sales to some
extent through spot purchases—commercial
banks attempted to balance their positions
by engaging in swap transactions, selling
Canadian dollars spot against forward purchases timed to meet likely calls on their
forward commitments to the grain dealers.
Consequently, the forward Canadian dollar
advanced to a premium while the spot rate
tended to decline.
In order to offset some of these pressures,
the Bank of Canada sold U.S. dollars spot
and purchased them forward, thus providing
some counterpart to the commercial banks'
swap needs. Despite such operations on a
substantial scale by the Bank of Canada, the
forward Canadian dollar remained at a
premium, and the incentive to move funds
from the United States to Canada on a covered basis as measured by the differential on
3-month Treasury bills rose to about 0.34
per cent in the latter part of March. The situation became a source of concern to the U.S.
authorities when it became evident that
funds actually had been moving to Canada
in some size, and with the agreement of the
Canadian authorities, the Federal Reserve
began in late March to sell Canadian dollars forward against spot purchases. As it
turned out, the pressures on the forward
Canadian dollar temporarily subsided, and
Federal Reserve swaps in the market
amounted to only $2 million. The matching
of forward exchange commitments with
shipment deliveries in connection with the
very large grain sales continued to dominate
the forward market in Canadian dollars
through the end of June. Although the 3-

1132

FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN • SEPTEMBER 1964

month forward Canadian dollar widened to
a premium of well over XA of 1 per cent
per annum, the covered differential in favor
of Canada held below 0.40 per cent as
Canadian short-term interest rates declined,
and no further operations by the U.S. authorities were necessary.
By the end of July, Canadian grain shipments to the Soviet Union had been fairly
well completed and pressures on the forward
market consequently eased. Then during
August a series of developments actually
reversed the pressures in the Canadian dollar
market. There was some buying of spot Canadian dollars by continental interests at the
time of the Vietnam crisis, and as the spot
rate rose in a thin market, Canadian exporters proceeded to sell out U.S. dollar balances. In addition, there were new grain
purchases by several Eastern European
countries, the effect of which was felt
mainly in the spot market. At about the
same time, there was a tightening of the
Canadian money market and a flow of funds
into Canada from the United States. The
incentive for interest arbitrage flows was
soon eliminated, however, by a sharp rise
in the spot Canadian dollar rate and a decline in the forward rate. At the close of
the period, the market was in balance.
OTHER CURRENCIES

Throughout most of the second quarter the
Belgian franc moved narrowly in a market
that was essentially in balance, and there
was no occasion for either the Federal Reserve or the National Bank of Belgium to
employ the swap balances held under the
fully drawn swap arrangement. Early in
July, however, the Belgian franc strengthened following the announcement of new
measures designed to curb the growth of
credit in Belgium. On July 3 the Belgian
National Bank raised its discount rate by Vi




percentage point to 43A per cent and announced that effective August 17 it would
impose a cash reserve requirement against
commercial bank deposits for the first time.
Early in August the Federal Reserve used
$7.5 million equivalent of Belgian francs
drawn under the swap to absorb dollars on
the books of the Belgian National Bank.
The French franc held firmly at its ceiling
throughout most of the period, as the French
balance of payments continued in surplus,
and there were no Federal Reserve or Treasury operations in the market. As indicated
in the following section, however, the Treasury did effect certain sales of French francs
to various countries for repayments to the
IMF. These repayments were spread out
over a period of several months. Since the
Treasury did not wish to leave sizable franc
balances uninvested, a swap arrangement
was entered into with the Bank of France,
with provision for gradual reductions of the
swap as the francs were required.
There were no Federal Reserve or Treasury operations in Swedish kronor or Austrian schillings during the March-August
period.
IMF DRAWING

In addition to the exchange operations
discussed above, since the beginning of the
year, the U.S. Treasury has sold foreign
currencies to 16 different countries—including Canada, India, and a number of Latin
American nations—for use in making repurchases from the IMF. (With the Fund's
holdings of dollars now in excess of the dollar portion of the U.S. subscription, the Fund
cannot at this time accept further dollars in
repayment.) The U.S. Treasury acquired
the foreign currencies sold, predominantly
German marks and French francs, through
two drawings on the IMF, on February 13
and June 1, in the amount of $125 million

1133

FOREIGN EXCHANGE OPERATIONS

equivalent each under the $500 million
standby agreement with the Fund announced by President Kennedy in July 1963.
Of this $250 million equivalent drawn by
the United States, the bulk had been utilized
by the middle of August.
Pending disbursement of remaining balances from the second drawing, the marks
were invested by the Treasury in German
Treasury bills, and the French francs were
returned to the Bank of France by means
of the dollar-French franc swap mentioned
above. On July 23, the original standby expired, and the Treasury announced that it
had made a further standby arrangement
with the IMF for another year, restoring the
amount available to $500 million.
The first drawing under the new standby
arrangement was made on September 1,
when the United States drew $50 million in
five European currencies. This drawing was
occasioned by Italy's repayment to the Fund
of $65 million.
GOLD MARKET AND U. S. GOLD
TRANSACTIONS

Throughout the first 8 months of 1964 the
London gold market was generally stable
with prices seldom in excess of $35.09.
There were brief periods when political uncertainties generated some speculative buying. In January, for example, private demand for gold picked up in large part
because of unsettled conditions in Cyprus
and Vietnam. Early in March these pressures were reinforced by buying from Italy,
and gold fixing prices advanced to a high
of $35.0986. The pressures quickly abated,
however, and in the latter part of March,
when the Soviet Union again appeared in
the market as a seller of gold in connection
with renewed grain purchases from the
West, the price receded to $35.0586. Although the Soviet Union had withdrawn
from the market by the end of April, market




supply generally continued to exceed demand. Early in August the military flare-up
in Vietnam and Cyprus again touched off
a brief surge of speculative buying, but these
tensions also faded quickly.
During the first half of the year, the
United States continued to acquire sizable
amounts of gold through the operation of
the London Gold Pool. Such acquisitions

though the Gold Pool component in this figure will vary from one period to the next.
Also shown in the table is the triangular gold
transaction mentioned earlier, in which
$200 million of gold sold to the United
States by the Bank of Italy was immediately
resold to the German Federal Bank. France,
which had a continuing surplus in its balance of payments, remained the largest purchaser of gold from the United States. During the first half of the year French reserves
rose some $280 million. On balance, after
taking account of sales to domestic users of
about $40 million, total U.S. gold holdings
—including Stabilization Fund holdings
along with the Treasury gold stock—increased by $27 million during the first 6
months of the year.

Application of Securities Exchange Act to Stocks
and Other Securities of Banks

Prior to enactment of the "Securities Acts,
Amendments of 1964," approved August 20, 1964
(Public Law 88-467), the registration, periodic
reporting, proxy solicitation, and certain other requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
applied only to securities traded on exchanges.
Under the new subsection 12(g) of the amended
Act, these "disclosure" requirements apply also to
the issuer of a class of equity securities held of
record by at least 750 persons (if the issuer has
total assets exceeding $1 million), even though the
equity security in question is traded on the "overthe-counter market" and not on a securities exchange. After a lapse of two years, the Act will
apply in any such case where a class of equity
security is held of record by at least 500 persons.
The amended Act applies to bank stocks as well as
to the equity securities of other corporations.
Public Law 88-467 also added to Section 12 of
the Act the following subsection (i):
"(i) In respect of any securities issued by banks the
deposits of which are insured in accordance with the
Federal Deposit Insurance Act, the powers, functions,
and duties vested in the Commission under this title
to administer and enforce sections 12, 13, 14(a), 14
(c), and 16 (1) with respect to national banks and
banks operating under the Code of Law for the District of Columbia are vested in the Comptroller of
the Currency, (2) with respect to all other member
banks of the Federal Reserve System are vested in
the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, and (3) with respect to all other insured banks
are vested in the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Comptroller of the Currency, the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System, and the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation shall have
power to make such rules and regulations as may be
necessary for the execution of the functions vested in
them as provided in this subsection and none of the
rules, regulations, forms or orders issued or adopted
by the Commission pursuant to this title shall be in
any way binding upon such officers and agencies in
the performance of such functions, or upon any such
banks in connection with the performance of such
functions."

As will be seen, Section 12(i) vests in the respective Federal bank supervisory agencies author-




ity to administer the disclosure provisions of the
Securities Exchange Act with respect to securities
of insured banks, to the same extent that administration is vested in the Securities and Exchange
Commission with respect to securities of other corporations. Accordingly, those agencies will administer those provisions in the case of any banks that
elect to list their securities on exchanges as well as
in the case of bank stocks traded over the counter
that are subject to the mandatory disclosure provisions of the new Section 12(g).
Real Estate Loans by National Banks

The Housing Act of 1964, approved September
2, 1964 (Public Law 88-560), amended Section 24
of the Federal Reserve Act, with respect to conventional real estate loans by national banks, by
increasing the maximum maturity of such loans
from 20 to 25 years, and the maximum loan-tovalue ratio from 75 to 80 per cent. The text of the
provision of the Act reads as follows:
SEC. 1004. Clause (3) of the third sentence of the
first paragraph of Section 24 of the Federal Reserve
Act is amended to read as follows: "(3) any such
loan may be made in an amount not to exceed 80 per
centum of the appraised value of the real estate offered as security and for a term not longer than
twenty-five years if the loan is secured by an amortized mortgage, deed of trust, or other such instrument under the terms of which the installment payments are sufficient to amortize the entire principal
of the loan within the period ending on the date of
its maturity, and".
Interest Equalization Tax Information

September 2, 1964 (Public Law 88-563), amended
Section 6103(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of

banks as a means of obtaining funds, the Board of
Governors has stated that, since such notes constitute borrowings, they are not subject, under present law and regulation, to the interest rate limitations or reserve requirements prescribed for
deposits by the Board.
The legality of the issuance of notes of the type
referred to must be determined in the light of
applicable Federal and State laws, and it is assumed that any bank borrowing by means of such
notes will satisfy itself that their issuance is
authorized. Borrowings of this type would, of
course, be so identified in financial statements and
call reports and added to all other borrowings in
the application of statutory or other limitations on
the total amount of debt a bank may incur. Any
liabilities thus incurred by a bank would increase
the necessity for maintaining an adequate cushion
of liquidity and equity capital.
Computer Services Under Bank Holding
Company Act For Customers of Subsidiary
Banks
The question has been presented to the Board of
Governors whether a wholly-owned nonbanking
subsidiary ("service company") of a bank holding
company, which is now exempt from the prohibitions of Section 4 of the Bank Holding Company
Act of 1956 ("the Act") because its sole business
is the providing of services for the holding company and the latter's subsidiary banks, would lose
its exempt status if it should provide data proc-




1137
essing services for customers of the subsidiary
banks.
The Board understood from the facts presented
that the service company owns a computer which
it utilizes to furnish data processing services for
the subsidiary banks of its parent holding company. Customers of these banks have requested
that the banks provide for them computerized
billing, accounting, and financial records maintenance services. The banks wish to utilize the computer services of the service company in providing
these and other services of a similar nature. It is
proposed that, in each instance where a subsidiary
bank undertakes to provide such services, the bank
will enter into a contract directly with the customer and then arrange to have the service company perform the services for it, the bank. In no
case will the service company provide services for
anyone other than its affiliated banks. Moreover,
it will not hold itself out as, nor will its parent
corporation or affiliated banks represent it to be,
authorized or willing to provide services for others.
Section 4(c)(l) of the Act permits a holding
company to own shares in "any company engaged
solely . . . in the business of furnishing services to
or performing services for such holding company
and banks with respect to which it is a bank holding company. . . . " The Board has ruled heretofore that the term "services" as used in Section
4(c) (1) is to be read as relating to those services
(excluding "closely related" activities of "a financial, fiduciary, or insurance nature" within the
meaning of Section 4(c)(6)) which a bank itself
can provide for its customers. (1958 Federal Reserve BULLETIN 431; 12 CFR 222.104) A determination as to whether a particular service may
legitimately be rendered or performed by a bank
for its customers must be made in the light of
applicable Federal or State statutory or regulatory
provisions. In the case of a State-chartered bank,
the laws of the State in which the bank operates,
together with any interpretations thereunder rendered by appropriate bank authorities, would govern the right of the bank to provide a particular
service. In the case of a national bank, a similar
determination would require reference to provisions of Federal law relating to the establishment
and operation of national banks, as well as to
pertinent rulings or interpretations promulgated
thereunder.
Accordingly, on the assumption that all of the

1138

FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN • SEPTEMBER 1964

services to be performed are of the kinds that the
holding company's subsidiary banks may render
for their customers under applicable Federal or
State law, the Board concluded that the rendition
of such services by the service company for its
affiliated banks would not adversely affect its
exempt status under Section 4(c)(l) of the Act.
In arriving at the above conclusion, the Board
emphasized that its views were premised explicitly
upon the facts presented to it, and particularly its
understanding that banks are permitted, under
applicable Federal or State law, to provide the
proposed computer services. The Board emphasized also that in respect to the service company's
operations, there continues in effect the requirement under Section 4(c) (1) that the service company engage solely in the business of furnishing
services to or performing services for the bank
holding company and its subsidiary banks. The
Board added that any substantial change in the
facts that had been presented might require reexamination of the service company's status under
Section 4 ( c ) ( l ) .

STATEMENT

Barnett National Securities Corporation, Jacksonville, Florida ("Applicant" or "Barnett"), a
registered bank holding company, has applied to
the Board of Governors, under the Bank Holding
Company Act of 1956 ("the Act"), for permission to acquire 80 per cent or more of the voting
stock to be issued by The San Jose Barnett Bank,
Jacksonville, Florida ("Bank"), a proposed new
bank.
Views and recommendation of State supervisory
authority. As required by Section 3(b) of the Act,
the Board notified the Florida State Commissioner

LAW DEPARTMENT
of Banking of receipt of the application and requested his views and recommendation thereon.
The Commissioner recommended approval of the
application.
Statutory factors. Section 3(c) of the Act requires the Board to take into consideration the
following five factors: (1) the financial history
and condition of the holding company and the
banks concerned; (2) their prospects; (3) the
character of their management; (4) the convenience, needs, and welfare of the communities and
the area concerned; and (5) whether the effect
of the proposed acquisition would be to expand
the size or extent of the bank holding company
system involved beyond limits consistent with adequate and sound banking, the public interest, and
the preservation of competition in the field of
banking.
Applicant owns 60 per cent or more of the
stock of four subsidiary banks located in the State
of Florida and is affiliated through common ownership with The Barnett National Bank of Jacksonville ("Barnett National"). At December 20,
1963,* Applicant's four subsidiary banks and
Barnett National held combined deposits of $214
million, of which Barnett National held $141 million. (Hereinafter the phrase "Barnett Group"
will refer to Applicant's four subsidiary banks and
Barnett National.) One of Applicant's subsidiary
banks and Barnett National are located in Duval
County, the county in which Bank will be situated.
Applicant's three remaining subsidiary banks are
located at St. Augustine, DeLand, and Cocoa.
With the exception of Barnett National, the Group
banks range in size from $12 million to $27
million.
Applicant proposes to establish Bank in an unincorporated area of Duval County known as San
Jose, approximately &A miles southeast of downtown Jacksonville on the eastern bank of the
St. Johns River. It is estimated that at the end of
its third year of operation Bank will have deposits
of $5.5 million.
Financial history and condition, prospects, and
management of Applicant and Bank. Applicant's
financial history and condition are considered to
be satisfactory. Its prospects, measured in part by
the sound financial condition of the Group banks,
* Unless otherwise indicated, all banking data noted
are of this date.




1139
appear favorable. While Bank has no financial
history, on the basis of its proposed capital structure, and its estimated deposits at the end of its
third year of operation, the Board concludes that
Bank's financial condition will be satisfactory and
that its prospects as a subsidiary of Applicant are
favorable.
The management of Applicant and of its subsidiary and affiliated banks is satisfactory. The
Board concludes that the proposed management
of Bank should be similarly satisfactory inasmuch
as such management will be drawn initially from
the staffs of Barnett National and Applicant's subsidiary bank in Jacksonville.
Convenience, needs, and welfare of the community and area concerned. As earlier indicated,
Bank will be located in a southeastern suburb of
Jacksonville known as San Jose. Bank's primary
service area will encompass approximately ten
square miles and will be primarily residential in
character. A study of the area reflects a growth in
population from 2,500 in 1950 to 15,000 in 1960.
The estimated 1964 population of the area is about
19,000. The number of residential dwelling units
within the area, a large number of which are highcost units for families with incomes considerably
above the average for Duval County, increased
from approximately 900 in 1950 to 4,800 in 1960.
Applicant estimates that approximately 2,700 additional residential units will be constructed in the
area by 1970.
While there are a few industrial and manufacturing concerns in the area, the commercial activity therein is principally related to servicing the
several residential developments. Within Bank's
service area there are approximately 120 retail
and 65 service establishments. The largest complex of retail and commercial outlets in the area
is the San Jose Shopping Center located at the
same intersection as, and across from, Bank's proposed site. This center has 30-40 establishments
of the nature normally found in a complex serving a large residential area. A similar shopping
center containing 14 establishments is located less
than a mile from Bank's proposed site, and a third
shopping center is now in the process of development approximately one mile from Bank's proposed site.
There is no banking office located within Bank's
proposed service area. There is evidence that the
area is now served by three banks located from

1140

FEDERAL RESERVE BULLETIN • SEPTEMBER 1964

3 to 5 miles from Bank's proposed site and by at
least five downtown banks. The three suburban
banks are located generally between the northern
edge of Bank's service area and downtown Jacksonville and offer the same general type of banking
service that Bank proposes to offer.
Applicant does not contend, nor is there evidence to support a rinding, that the major banking
needs of the San Jose area are not being met by
existing facilities. However, considering the past
and prospective development of that area, and the
distance from Bank's site of existing banking facilities, the fact that through consummation of Applicant's proposal there will result an additional
and substantially more convenient source of banking service than is now available is a consideration
weighing toward approval of the application.
Effect of proposed acquisition on adequate and
sound banking, public interest, and banking competition. Duval County is coextensive with the
Jacksonville metropolitan area. Within Duval
County, the area principally affected by Applicant's proposal is the San Jose area. Also to be
considered are the suburban communities in which
are located banks that presently serve the San
Jose area, and the downtown section of Jacksonville. As earlier indicated, two of the Barnett
Group banks are located in Duval County. Barnett
National, the largest of the Group's banks and
third largest of the Jacksonville banks, holds deposits equal to 20 per cent of the combined deposits of all banks ($714 million) in Duval County.
The Group's other Duval County bank, the Murray Hill Barnett Bank, holds deposits of $12 million, or about 2 per cent of the deposits held by
all banks in the County. In addition to the Barnett
Group banks, there are 20 other banks located in
Duval County, 11 of which are components of
one of two "bank groups." The Atlantic Trust
group consists of 10 banks, 5 of which are located
in Duval County. One of the five, The Atlantic
National Bank of Jacksonville, is the largest bank
in the County. Six of the banks in the County,
including the second largest in Jacksonville, belong to the Florida National group.
The Duval County banks of the Atlantic Trust
group hold combined deposits of $246 million, or
34 per cent of the deposits of all banks in the
County. The Florida National group banks in
Duval County hold $199 million of deposits, or
28 per cent of the deposits of all banks. The re-




maining nine banks in the County hold combined
deposits of $115 million, or 16 per cent of the
total deposits of all banks.
In terms of dollar volume of deposits held by
subsidiary and/or affiliated banks, the extent to
which deposits of banks in Duval County are concentrated in both holding company and group
banks is not insignificant. At the same time, however, such concentrations do not appear to represent, either in the case of the Barnett Group or in
respect to either of the other two groups operating
banks in Duval County, a dominance inimical to
the nonaffiliated banks in the County. Since Bank
is to be newly established, its acquisition by Applicant will not immediately alter the Barnett Group's
competitive position in Duval County. Even adding to the combined deposits of that Group's banks
the deposits expected at the end of three years of
Bank's operation, the percentage of deposits of all
banks in the County held by the Group's banks
would be increased by less than one per cent.
Turning to consideration of the probable effect
of Applicant's proposed acquisition on competing
banks in the area, as earlier noted there are no
other banks located in Bank's proposed primary
service area. The only bank in the Barnett Group
that competes measurably in the San Jose area is
Barnett National. Some $365,000 of its deposits
of individuals, partnerships, and corporations
(representing .4 per cent of its total of such deposits) and $100,000 of its commercial loans
(representing .5 per cent of the total of such
loans) are derived from Bank's designated service
area. Even when viewed alone, these totals are
not such as to suggest the potential for substantial
competition between Barnett National and Bank
were Bank to be operated independent of the
Barnett Group. The potential for any substantial
competition between Barnett National and Bank
is further lessened by the location of the earlier
mentioned banks between Bank's proposed site
and downtown Jacksonville, and the fact that other
downtown Jacksonville banks, including the two
that are larger than Barnett National, would also
compete for business in the San Jose area. The
three suburban banks serving the San Jose area,
their distances from Bank's proposed site, and
their sizes by deposits are as follows: Southside
Atlantic Bank (member of the Atlantic group),
3.3 miles distant, with deposits of about $8 million;
American National Bank, 3.7 miles distant, with

1141

LAW DEPARTMENT
deposits of $32 million; and State Bank of Jacksonville, 5 miles distant, with deposits of $27 million.
In view of the fact that each of these banks is located outside Bank's designated primary service
area, and considering their respective sizes in relation to that projected for Bank at the end of its
third year of operation, there is no basis for a
finding that Applicant's acquisition and operation
of Bank will have any significant adverse effect on
these banks. In this regard, the Board has noted
the absence of any expressed opposition by these
banks to Applicant's proposal.

The facts earlier related as to the location, size,
and competitive position of Barnett National warrant the conclusion that its affiliation with Bank
in the Barnett Group will have no consequences
of a nature requiring denial of Applicant's proposal.
Conclusion. Viewing the relevant facts in the
light of the general purposes of the Act and the
factors enumerated in Section 3(c) thereof, it is
the Board's judgment that the proposed acquisition
would be consistent with the public interest and
that the application should be approved.

National Summary of Business Conditions
Released for publication September 16

Industrial activity and retail sales continued to
expand in August while construction activity declined slightly from a record level. Changes in the
labor force and the unemployment rate were
small. Bank credit rose substantially, after a small
decrease in July. The rate of increase in the money
supply slackened while time and savings deposits
continued to increase.
INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTION

Industrial production in August was 133.5 per
cent of the 1957-59 average, up from 132.7 in
July, and was about 6 per cent higher than in the
summer and autumn of last year. Expansion in
output continued for both final products and
materials.
Among consumer goods auto assemblies increased somewhat, after allowance for the model
change over, and output of furniture and some
other household goods rose further. Activity in
business equipment industries continued to increase, reflecting further gains in output of industrial and freight and passenger equipment.
Steel production showed about the usual recovery in August and the seasonally adjusted rate

was close to the advanced level of July. Increases
in output were widespread among other materials,
both durable and nondurable.
CONSTRUCTION

New construction put in place in August, at a
seasonally adjusted annual rate of $66 billion, was
1 per cent below the record rate attained in MarchApril and again in June-July. Public construction,
which was revised upward by 4 per cent for July,
declined 3 per cent in August. Private residential
building remained at a level about 5 per cent below
the peak reached earlier this year while commercial and industrial construction continued to
rise.
DISTRIBUTION

Retail sales rose about 1 per cent further in
August and were 7 per cent above a year earlier.
Deliveries of new cars, which had been held down
by a trucking strike, increased sharply in August.
Sales at apparel and general merchandise stores
rose substantially.
AGRICULTURE

Dry weather during most of August lowered
crop production prospects and reduced grazing
capacity of pastures in the Central States and the
Northeast. Nationally, the September 1 estimate
of crop production was 2 per cent below the
August 1 forecast and 3 per cent below the record
output of 1963. The corn crop estimate of 3.64
billion bushels is 11 per cent smaller than the 1963
crop; the soybean estimate of 704 million bushels
is somewhat larger than last year's crop.

for Aug.




The wholesale price index for industrial commodities remained stable in August and early
September. Upward price pressures continued in
markets for nonferrous metals; prices of tin rose
sharply further and quotations for refined lead and
for lead and copper scrap increased. Meanwhile,
steel scrap lost most of July's sharp rise. Among

1142

1143

NATIONAL SUMMARY OF BUSINESS CONDITIONS
foodstuffs, livestock prices rose sharply in late
August in response to an organized movement to
withhold supplies from market, but subsequently
marketings increased and prices declined moderately.
BANK CREDIT, MONEY SUPPLY, AND RESERVES

Seasonally adjusted commercial bank credit increased over $4 million in August following a
moderate decrease in July. Loans continued to rise
and holdings of U.S. Government securities and
of municipal and agency issues increased. The
seasonally adjusted money supply continued to rise,
but the increase of $500 million was considerably
smaller than in the preceding two months. Time
and savings deposits rose $1.2 billion, the largest
increase since February.
Member bank borrowings from the Federal Reserve, at an average of $335 million, were above
earlier levels but excess reserves, at $410 million,

were also somewhat higher than in other recent
months. Seasonally adjusted total and required
reserves rose. Reserves were supplied principally
through Federal Reserve purchases of U.S. Government securities and were absorbed through an
outflow of currency, a decrease in float, and a
build-up of Treasury deposits at the Reserve
Banks.
SECURITY MARKETS

Yields on seasoned corporate and State and
local government bonds changed little between
mid-August and mid-September while yields on
Treasury securities rose somewhat. In mid-September the rate on 3-month Treasury bills was slightly
over V/i per cent.
Common stock prices, which had declined irregularly from the high recorded in mid-July, recovered most of the loss by mid-September.

NOTE.—Data are for all commercial and mutual savings banks in the
United States (including Alaska and Hawaii, beginning with 1959). Comparability of figures for classes of banks is affected somewhat by changes
in F.R. membership, deposit insurance status, and the reserve classifications of cities and individual banks, and by mergers, etc.
Figures are partly estimated except on call dates.
For revisions in series before June 30, 1947, see July 1947 BULL., pp.
870-71.

NOTE.—Data are for all commercial banks in the United States. These
figures exclude data for banks in U.S. possessions except for member
banks. Comparability of figures for classes of banks is affected somewhat by changes in F.R. membership, deposit insurance status, and the
reserve classifications of cities and individual banks, and by mergers, etc.

i Beginning December 31, 1963, bankers' acceptances for the creation
of dollar exchange are excluded from commercial and industrial loans
and those relating to commercial transactions are shown in a separate
category. Current figures are therefore not strictly comparable with
figures previously reported, but differences are relatively small.

NOTE.—Annual data are averages of monthly figures. Yields
on FHA-insured mortgages are derived from weighted averages
of FHA field-office opinions on private secondary market prices
for Sec. 203, 30-year mortgages, with the minimum down payment, a maximum permissible interest rate of 5\h per cent, and
an assumed prepayment period of 15 years. Price data are
reported as of the first of the succeeding month.
Conventional first mortgages, Home Loan Bank Board in
cooperation with Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation beginning in late 1962; interest rate data for earlier years—in
parentheses—are based on estimates from Federal Housing
Administration.

NOTE.—Data in first 3 cols, and last col. are for end of month; in other
cols, for last Wed.
Net debit balances and broker and dealer credit: Ledger balances of
member firms of N.Y. Stock Exchange carrying margin accounts, as
reported to Exchange. Customers' debit and free credit balances exclude
balances maintained with reporting firm by other member firms of national
securities exchanges and balances of reporting firm and of general partners of reporting firm. Balances are net for each customer—i.e., all accounts of one customer are consolidated. Money borrowed includes
borrowings from banks and from other lenders except member firms of
national securities exchanges.
Nov. data on customers' net debit balances exclude amounts carried
by a large former member firm in liquidation; most of these accounts




"156

have been transferred to other member firms and are reported in their
debit figures from the month received (some in Dec. 1963, more in Jan.
1964). Debit balance totals for the period Oct.-Jan., therefore, are not
completely comparable.
Bank loans to others than brokers and dealers: figures are for weekly
reporting member banks. Before July 1959, loans for purchasing or
carrying U.S. Govt. securities were reported separately only by N.Y.
and Chicago banks. Accordingly, for that period the fifth col. includes
any loans for purchasing or carrying such securities at other reporting
banks. Composition of series also changed beginning with July 1959;
revised data for the new reporting series (but not for the breakdown of
loans by purpose) are available back through July 1958 and have been
incorporated.

NOTE.—The figures include all securities sold by dealers under repurchase contracts regardless of the maturity date of the contract unless the
contract is matched by a reverse repurchase (resale) agreement or delayed
delivery sale with the same maturity and involving the same amount of
securities. Included in the repurchase contracts are some that more
clearly represent investments by the holders of the securities rather than
dealer trading positions.

"credit balances of other customers exclusive of firms' own partners—
free credit balances" are conceptually identical to these items (including
debit balances secured by and money borrowed on U.S. Government
obligations), as shown in the table on Stock Market Credit, p. 1171, but
the data differ somewhat because of minor differences in coverage,
statistical discrepancies in reporting, and—for the item "money borrowed"
—the date of reporting.

The figures on international capital transactions
are collected by the F.R. Banks from reports
made on Treasury foreign exchange forms collected by the F.R. Banks in accordance with
Executive Orders No. 6560, dated Jan. 15, 1934,
and No. 10033, dated Feb. 8, 1949, and Treasury regulations thereunder. Other data are com-

piled largely from regularly published sources
such as central bank statements and official
statistical bulletins. For some of the series, back
data are available in Banking and Monetary
Statistics and its Supplements (see list of publications at end of the BULLETIN).

regional organizations, central banks and govts. of countries listed in
this table and also of a number not shown separately here, and gold to be
distributed by the Tripartite Commission for the Restitution of Monetary
Gold; excludes holdings of the U.S.S.R., other Eastern European countries, and China Mainland.
The figures included for the Bank for International Settlements are
the Bank's gold assets net of gold deposit liabilities. This procedure
avoids the overstatement of total world gold reserves since most of the
gold deposited with the BIS is included in the gold reserves of individual
countries.

was fixed at 6 per cent. Rates on loans to money market dealers will

raised by 1.5 per cent for each month in which the reduction does not
occur.
3 Rate shown is for call loans.
4
