BANKING AffP HONETARY DEVELOPMENTS IN MARCH 1966
Summary. Seasonally adjusted loans and investments at all
commercial banks increased substantially in March after showing only
nominal growth in February. Loan expansion was rapid and associated
in part with heavy tax and dividend borrowings-especially by businesses
and finance companies. Banks continued to liquidate holdings of U. S.
Government securities,and they also reduced their holdings of municipal
and Federal agency issues. While the money supply rose sharply, U. S.
Government deposits declined contraseasonally. Expansion in time and
savings deposits continued at about the same reduced rate as in earlier
months this year, Net borrowed reserves increased further as member
bank borrowings rose and excess reserves declined. Seasonally adjusted
total and required reserves increased.

Bank credit. Although loans and investments at all commercial
banks increased at a relatively high seasonally adjusted annual r a t e "
11.3 per cent—in March, this expansion followed virtually no growth
*-n February. Over the first quarter as a whole, credit increased at an
annual rate of 8 per cent--below that for both the entire year and the




fourth quarter of 1965, At weekly reporting banks in leading cities,
the January-March credit decline (not adjusted for seasonal) was larger
than that in the comparable months of other recent years. While loans
rose much more than in any other year except 1965, holdings of U. S.
Government securities showed an unusually large decline and, in addition
holdings of other securities declined contraseasonally, On the other
hand, at banks outside leading cities, credit growth was larger than
usual, reflecting only slightly accelerated loan expansion, relatively
small sales of U, S. Government securities, and a record increase in
holdings of municipal and agency issues. For March alone, however,
the pattern at banks outside leading cities reversed,and loan expansion
was unusually rapid while security liquidation was larger than usual.
Total loans rose sharply in March—$3.8 billion--considerably
more than in any other recent month. This brought the annual rate of
growth in the first quarter to slightly over 15 per cent, similar to
that in the year 1965 but faster than that in the fourth quarter.
Several factors were associated with the rapid March growth--unusually
heavy borrowing by finance companies and nonfinaneial businesses around
the tax and dividend period, a contraseasonal increase in U. S. Government dealer borrowing, and bank acquisitions of over $350 million of
Export-Import Bank certificates (currently reported in "other loans").
Loans to nonbank financial businesses increased $700 million
on a seasonally adjusted basis in March. This largely reflected
unusually heavy borrowing by finance companies to meet tax period maturities of short-term paper held by nonfinancial businesses. Security
loans increased $400 million in March reflecting in part dealer
financing needs late in the month.
Business loan expansion over the March tax and dividend
period was larger than in the corresponding period of any other
recent year. For the month as a whole, seasonally adjusted business
loans increased $1.2 billion compared with $700 million in February.
The February-March growth, however, was considerably below the unusually
rapid December-January rise. At city banks in March, most industry
groups showed larger borrowing than usual--particularly metals, textiles
petroleum and chemicals, and miscellaneous manufacturing. Borrowing by
trade concerns was also large following heavy repayments earlier in
the year. On the other hand, repayments by food processors, which had
been very small earlier, were generally similar to those in March of
other recent years.

Total investments at all commercial banks declined $1 billion
in March—more than in any other month since July. While the $700
million reduction in holdings of U. S. Government securities was about
the same as the average reduction earlier in the year, holdings of
municipal and Federal agency securities declined $300 million, the
first monthly reduction since January 1964. The annual rate of decline
in Governments over the first quarter--almost 14 per cent--was larger
than that in each of the first three quarters of 1965 but followed an
increase in holdings in the fourth quarter which had been associated
with Treasury financing operations. In the case of other securities,
the annual rate of growth over the January-March period was the smallest
quarterly increase in the current expansion.
Money supply and time deposits. The seasonally adjusted
money supply increased $1.2 billion in March following a small decline
in February. The March increase was associated in part with a substantial
contraseasonal reduction in U. S. Government deposits. Over the first
quarter, the money stock rose at an annual rate of 4.3 per cent, a little
below that for all of 1965.
Time and savings deposits at all commercial banks increased
$800 million in March—or at an annual rate of 6.5 per cent—the same
as in February. Growth in these deposits had been slackening since
late last year ,and over the first quarter the 7 per cent annual rate
of increase was less than half that of the year 1965 or even of the
fourth quarter 1965. In March, there was some shift in inflows of time
and savings deposits among banks. At reserve city banks, net inflows
picked up sharply on a seasonally adjusted monthly average basis,
whereas at country banks, they slackened.
At weekly reporting banks in leading cities, in the five weeks
ending March 30, time deposits other than negotiable CD's rose by over
$900 million compared with only $200 million in the corresponding weeks
last year. This year's increase probably reflected a sharp expansion
in holdings of smaller denomination nonnegotiable certificates on which
relatively high rates are now being offered. Holdings of negotiable CD's
also rose substantially—$700 million compared with $100 million in the
corresponding weeks last year—in spite of the fact that March 1966
maturities were the largest on record. Savings deposit inflows continued
small, however,—presumably reflecting in part shifts of funds to the new
nonnegotiable certificates.
Bank reserves. Net borrowed reserves increased to about $220
million over the four statement weeks ending March 30; member bank borrowings rose and excess reserves declined somewhat. Seasonally adjusted
total reserves increased further in March and required reserves also rose
after leveling off in February. Reserves were supplied through reductions
in Treasury deposits at the Reserve Banks and absorbed principally through
currency outflows and sales of U. S. Government securities.

1/ Structure changes in 1959, on balance through August, added almost $1 billion total credit: $600 million in loans; $300 million in U. S. Government
securities; and $100 million in other securities. Real estate loans increased about $300 million; business loans $100 million; consumer loans $100
million; and other loans $100 million.
NOTE—Data exclude interbank loans. Total loans are after and types of loans before deductions for valuation reserves. Consumer and "other loans" are
partly estimated for all dates. Other data are partly estimated on all but June and December call dates. Beginning June 24, 1959, "business loans"
and "all other loans" have been revised to exclude loans to nonbank financial institutions.




Individual loan category data are available for publication only on a June and December call date basis.
