BANKING AND MONETABY DEVELOPMENTS IN NOVEMBER 1961
Total commercial bank credit increased moderately further in
November. Loans and holdings of State, local, and other securities rose while
holdings of B. S. Government securities declined. The seasonally adjusted
daily average money supply declined somewhat between the second half of
October and the second half of November, following sharp expansion in the previous two months; on a monthly average basis, however, it continued to rise.
Seasonally adjusted time deposits showed further substantial growth. Total
reserves and required reserves of member banks increased in November but less
than in October. Free reserves rose.
Bank credit. Total credit at all commercial banks rose $800 million
further in November, somewhat more than the October rise. Total loans rose $1
billion, more than twice as much as in November last year. Holdings of State,
local, and other securities also increased, as redemptions of maturing New York
City tax anticipation notes, usual in November, were more than offset by purchases of securities at other times in the month. Holdings of U. S. Government
securities, however, declined on balance, Allotments of $360 million of new
bills in the auction of an $800 million strip issue on November 15 were more
than offset by prior and subsequent reductions. Most of the credit growth in
November occurred at banks outside leading cities.
So far in 1961, total commercial bank credit has increased $10.7
billion, more than twice as much as in the corresponding period last year and
more than in any other recent year except for the record $13.4 billion expansion of 1958. Loan growth of about $3 billion this year has been twice that
in the comparable months of 1958 and 1954, which also were years of combined
recession and expansion, but far short of the $10 billion increases in the
expansion years of 1959 and 1955° Holdings of State, local, and other securities have increased slightly more so far in 1961 than in any other year. The
$5 billion increase in holdings of U. S. Government securities so far this
year, while smaller than in the comparable periods of 1958 and 1954, contrasts
with declines in most other recent years. Total credit growth has been large
so far this year both at weekly reporting banks in leading cities and at other
banks. All this year's loan growth has been at banks outside leading cities;
at city banks loans have declined slightly but less than in 1958 and 1954.
Business loans at all commercial banks increased $400 million in
November, somewhat less than in November of most other recent years. So far
in 1961, the $400 million growth in these loans compares with declines in the
corresponding periods of 1958 and 1954, but with $1-5 billion increases in
other recent years.

In November, loans to food processors continued to increase about
seasonally, and those to commodity dealers also rose about seasonally after
expanding somewhat less than usual in other recent months. Loans to trade
concerns showed a further seasonal rise and then turned down late in the month, as is usual
when holiday buying picks up. Loans to textile concerns continued to decline
seasonally and those to metals manufacturers dropped slightly further.
Security loans declined slightly in November. Loans to U. S. Government security dealers rose to an unusually high level at midmonth associated
with Treasury financing operations but subsequently declined sharply. Loans to
brokers and dealers for purchasing and carrying securities other than those of
U. S. Government rose somewhat further in November. So far this year security
loans have shown little change where usually they decline on balance.
Loans to nonbank financial businesses increased $200 million in
November, mainly in loans to financial institutions other than sales finance
companies. Part of the recent rise in loans to these institutions, however,
reflects loan reclassification at weekly reporting banks, presumably out of
business loans. So far this year, loans to all nonbank financial institutions have declined $800 million, about the same as in the corresponding 1960
period.
Real estate loans continued to expand in November. So far this year
the $1.6 billion growth has been comparable with increases in the corresponding
periods of 1958 and 1954 but well below the record 1955 and 1959 expansions.
Consumer loans at all commercial banks were unchanged in November. So far this
year, they have increased $300 million (exclusive of the Sears' borrowing).
In the January-November 1958 and 1954 periods, consumer loans had declined
slightly; in 1959 they had shown a record increase of almost $3 billion.

Deposit ratios. The ratio of total loans to total deposits at all
commercial banks increased slightly to 54.7 per cent in November, following
declines in the two preceding months. The ratio of U. S. Government securities
maturing within one year to total deposits declined slightly to 11.4 per cent
in October, but still remains close to the recent peak of 12.2 per cent in July.
(Data for November not yet available.)
Money supply. The daily average money supply, seasonally adjusted,
declined $500 million between the second half of October and second half of
November following growth of $2.4 billion in the preceding two months. For
the entire month of November, however, the money supply averaged $400 million
higher than in October. In late November, the money supply was about the same
as the mid-1959 peak and over 2-1/2 per cent above the corresponding level a
year ago. The end-of-month money supply series, which had also been increasing
sharply earlier in the fall, declined $400 million in November.
Time deposits at sill commercial banks declined less than usual in
November and on a seasonally adjusted basis showed a $1.1 billion increase,
somewhat more than in most other recent months. The usual pre-Thanksgiving
withdrawals of Christmas savings were offset in large part by continued growth
in other time deposits, both at city banks and at those outside.

The seasonally adjusted annual rate of demand deposit turnover at
banks outside New York and other financial centers increased from 26,9 in
October to 27.1 (preliminary) in November, Since midyear, turnover has averaged
about 2-1/2 per cent above the corresponding period of 1960,
Bank reserves» Total reserves and required reserves of member banks
increased further in November but less than in October, Free reserves averaged
$510 million compared with $440 million in October, with excess reserves somewhat higher and borrowings somewhat lower than in October, Reserve positions at
central reserve and reserve city banks were about the same in November as in
October but at country banks they were easier. The effective rate on Federal
funds was frequently at 3 per cent in November-—around the Election Day holiday,
during the mid-month financing, and prior to the Thanksgiving holiday. Late in
the month the rate declined and remained low during early December—often at
2 per cent or below.
During November, on a daily average basis, reserves were absorbed
principally through a continued larger-than-usual currency drain of about $400
million and a $150 million reduction in gold stock, reflecting mainly a large
sale of gold by the Treasury to the United Kingdom in the latter part of the
month. Reserves were supplied through a $570 million increase in System holdings
of U, So Government securities, largely outright purchases.

p Preliminary.
1/ Data for demand and time deposits adjusted and currency outside banks are as of last Wednesday of
month, except that time deposits are as of June 30 and December 31 when call data for these dates
were available. Demand deposits adjusted are total demand deposits less interbank and U. S.
Government demand deposits and cash items reported as in process of collection. Time deposits
adjusted are total time deposits less interbank and U. S. Government time deposits.
2j Includes savings deposits in the Postal Savings System.
j/ Prior to 1955 data are Board estimates based on monthly figures of inflow of new savings and withdrawals of savings capital compiled by the federal Home Loan Bank Board.
hj Includes all types of savings bonds held Try investors other than banks and U. S. Government
agencies and trust funds.
Beginning May 1953 includes all marketable securities maturing within one year (adjusted to
include partially tax exempt securities 12 months prior to first call date) and, prior to
1956, nonmarketable Treasury savings notes with maturities up to 24 months; figures include
holdings of insurance companies, brokers and dealers, State and local governments, nonbank
corporations, corporate pension funds, non-profit institutions, foreign accounts, and individuals;
prior to May 1953 includes securities callable within one year.
6/ Gross national product estimates are available quarterly and annually only. For 1950-58 ratios
are for last quarter of year; for 1959 and i960, for each quarter of year. Data for total liquid
assets used in computing these ratios are quarterly average for four dates: each month of the
current quarter and the last month of the preceding quarter.
jJ Demand deposits adjusted (before seasonal adjustment) was increased by $400 million and time
deposits adjusted (before seasonal adjustment) was increased by $1.5 billion due to the
reclassification of deposits of foreign official institutions which formerly were grouped with
interbank deposits and excluded from demand and time deposits adjusted.
