CONDITION OF MEMBER BAKICS IN LEADING d TIES
Aggregate increases of $242,000,000 in net demand deposits following
end-of-year interest and dividend payments by "banking, industrial and commercial corporations, and large increases of bank balances, carried by member
banks in Federal reserve bank cities, also the return flow of Federal reserve
notes and other currency, account for the principal changes in the condition
on January 4 of 80S member banks in leading cities. Considerable amounts of
currency after serving the needs of the holiday trade were returned to the
reporting member banks during the week and after being credited to customers 1
deposit accounts were used by the member banks to reduce their own borrowings
at the Federal reserve banks and to increase their reserve balances.
As against a further increase of $19,000,000 in loans secured by corporate
stocks and bonds, loans secured by United States Government obligations show a
decline for the week of $14,000,000, and all other loans and discounts, comprising largely industrial and commercial loans, - a decrease of $19,000,000, Corresponding changes for members in New York City include a reduction of $b,000,000 in loans secured by Government obligations and increases of $25,000,000
each of loans secured by stocks and bonds and of commercial loans proper.
Investments of the reporting institutions in United States bonds and Victory
notes show but nominal changes. Holdings of Treasury notes increased by $3,000,000, while those of Treasury certificates declined by $5,000,000, Member banks
in New York City report a nominal increase in their holdings of United States
bonds and Victory notes and increases of $4,000,000 in Treasury notes and of
$2,000,000 in Treasury certificates. Investments of the reporting institutions
in corporate and other securities show an increase for the week of $6,000,000,
largely by member banks in New York City. Total loans and investments of the
reporting institutions in consequence of the changes noted are shown $9,000,000
less than the week before, while member banks in New York City report an increase of $56,000,000 under this head.
Accomodation of the reporting member banks at Federal reserve banks,
mainly in consequence of the substantial amount of currency returned to the
latter, shows a reduction from $698,000,000 to $647,000,000, or from 4.7 to
4 . 4 . per cent of the banks' total loans and investments. For member banks in
New York City a decrease from.$131,000,000 to $125,000,000 in total borrowings
from the local reserve bank and from 2.8 to 2,6 per cent in the ratio of
accommodation is noted.
Government balances with the reporting institutions show practically no
change, Net demand deposits, as shown above, increased by $242,000,000, mainly
because of the increase in bank balances carried, while time deposits show a
gain for the week of $1^,000,000, Member banks in New York City report an increase of $133,000,000 in net demand deposits,
mainly because of increases
in amounts due to out - of — t own banks« Only nominal changes in Government and time
deposits, are shown.
Reserve balances of the reporting institutions with the Federal reserve
banks, in keeping with the large increase in net demand deposits, show an increase of $47,000,000, while cash in vault, composed largely of Federal reserve
notes, declined about $13,000,000. Corresponding changes for the New York City
banks include an increase of $31,000,000 in reserve balances and a reduction of
$7,000,000 in cash on hand.
