BANKING AND MONETARY DEVELOPMENTS IN JUNE 1961
Bank credit. Total credit at all commercial banks increased
$1.1* billion further in June reflecting increases in both security holdings and in loans. Holdings of U. S. Government securities increased
$>00 million as bank acquisitions of practically the entire $1.8 billion
Treasury bill issue on June lit were offset only in part by sales of these
and other securities. Holdings of State, local, and other securities
increased moderately further. Total loans rose $700 million, much less
than in June of other recent years. The total credit growth in June
exceeded that of all other recent years, however, except 1958 and 195h,
but there was no Treasury cash financing in June of any other year except
1958. This year's June growth was somewhat larger than usual at both
weekly reporting-banks in leading cities and at nonweekly reporting banks.
Total credit at all commercial banks increased $1.8 billion
over the first half of 1961. In all other recent years except the
recession years of 1958 and 1 9 % credit had declined and generally by
$1 billion or more. The 1961 expansion was much less than in the first
half of 1958 but followed a larger credit growth in late I960 than had
occurred in late 1957. A contraseasonal rise of $1 billion in holdings
of U. S. Government securities and an unusually large increase of $1.3
billion in holdings of State, local, and other securities were offset
in part by a loan decline of $500 million. Loans had increased in the
first half of every other recent year except 195L Credit growth at
weekly reporting banks in the first half of 1961 contrasted with substantial reductions in all other recent years except 1958 and 195U
while credit growth at other banks appeared not too different from
that of most past years.
Business loans at all commercial banks increased $500
million in June, a smaller growth than usual for this month. MidJune tax and dividend related borrowing was smaller than in the
comparable period last year. Both corporate tax payments and maturing
tax securities available for payment of taxes were slightly below those
of I960. Business loans declined $600 million over the first half
of 1961, about comparable with reductions in the similar periods of
1958 and 195>lu In the first half of 195>9 and i960 business loans had
increased almost $2 billion.
Loans to food processors and commodity dealers declined about
seasonally in June and loans to trade concerns, which usually rise,
also dropped slightly. Net new borrowing by metals concerns and public
utilities was much smaller than usualj tax and dividend period borrowing
had not been as large as in other years and was offset in large part by
continued loan liquidation. Loans to "other manufacturing groups"
increased in record volume, however, and those to "all other businesses"
in near-record volume, mainly reflecting further acquisitions of bankers'
acceptances by banks in New York City.

Loans to nonbank financial institutions declined slightly in
June as a much smaller-than-usual riqe over the tax period was more than
offset by reductions at other times. Net repayments by these institutions over the first half of 1961 totaled $1.2 billion, considerably
more than in any other recent year.
Total security loans showed little over-all change in June.
Loans to U. S. Government security dealers declined as customary borrowing over the tax period was more thai} offset by reductions at other times.
Loans to brokers and others against stock market collateral rose further
in June. So far in 1961, security loans have shown little change as
reductions in loans to U. S. Government security dealers have been offset by increases in other security loans. Usually, security loans drop
substantially in the first half of the year.
Deposit ratios. The ratio of total loans to total deposits
at all commercial banks declined nominally in June to 55>.£ per cent,
little different from levels of other recent months. The ratio is
now slightly above the recent low in January 1961 and compares with a
postwar high of £7 per cent in mid-1960. The ratio of U. S. Government
securities maturing within one year to total deposits rose further in
June to 9.8 per cent.
' Money supply. The daily average money supply, seasonally
adjusted, showed no change between the second half of May and the second
half of June as a $!>00 million increase in early June was subsequently
offset by a decline of equal volume. During the first half of 1961,
the money supply has increased at an annual rate of 2 per pent following
growth at a 1-1/2 per cent annual rate in the second half of I960.
The end-of-month series increased slightly in June and sinqe December
has expanded at about the same rate as the average money supply.
U. S. Government deposits at member banks declined about as
usual in the first half of June but in the second half rose much more
than in other recent years. Over thg first half of 1961, on an average
basis, however, these deposits increased slightly as appears usual.
Time deposits at all commercial banks, seasonally adjusted,
increased about $600 million further in June, not quite as rapidly as
in most other recent months. Since December, these deposits have
increased at an annual rate of 12-1/2 per cent (exclusive of the $1.5
billion due to reclassification of foreign central banks and a small
adjustment for the Sears transaction). This was somewhat slower than
in the second half of I960 and the first half of 1958, but much faster
than in corresponding periods of other postwar years.
Deposit turnover. The seasonally adjusted annual rate of
demand deposit turnover at banks outside New York and other financial
centers declined slightly from 26.9 in May to 26.6 in June. Turnover
had been about unchanged at high levels in the first four months of
Not for publication



1961 and then increased in May. So far this year, turnover has
averaged about the same as in the comparable period of I960. In
New York City, turnover increased sharply in the late spring as the
stock market and other financial markets became more active.
Bank reserves. Total reserves of member banks increased
over June on an average basis. Excess reserves rose $60 million to
$610 million and required reserves increased $120 million as a substantial rise at the midmonth associated with bank credit expansion at
the time of the Treasury cash financing and around the quarterly tax
date was offset only in part by subsequent declines. Borrowings
declined somewhat to $6£ million and free reserves averaged
million
compared with $lj.!?E> million a month earlier. Host of the increase in
free reserves occurred at central reserve city banks in New York where
reserve positions had tightened in May. Since January, free reserves
at all member banks have fluctuated around $500 million.
The effective rate on Federal funds was generally relatively
low during June except for a few days early in the month and again for
a temporary rise just prior to redemption of tax anticipation securities
on June 22. In May, in contrast, the rate had been high over most of
the month, often at 2-1/2 or 2-3/h per cent.
During June, on a daily average basis, reserves were
absorbed primarily through currency outflows and supplied through
gold purchases, increases in Reserve Bank float, and other factors.
In addition, Federal Reserve holdings of U. S. Government securities
increased $190 million.

Preliminary.
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 $1 when call data for these dates were available.
Includes savings deposits in the Postal Savings System.
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.
Includes all types of savings bonds held by 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, nonprofit institutions, foreign accounts, and individuals; prior to May 1953 includes securities callable
within one year.
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 s each month of the current quarter and the
last month of the preceding quarter.
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.
