adjusted for the d e f i n i t i o n a l shift of about $1 b i l l i o n of participation
c e r t i f i c a t e s from loans to other securities on J u n e 30, 1966. Changes in
total c r e d i t , total loans, and total time and savings d e p o s i t s described
above are also adjusted for the r e d u c t i o n of $ 1 . 1 b i l l i o n of balances
a c c u m u l a t e d for the payment of personal loans excluded on J u n e 9, 1966, as
a result of a change in F e d e r a l R e s e r v e r e g u l a t i o n s a f f e c t i n g reserve
requirements.




B a n k credit.
T o t a l loans and investments at a l l c o m m e r cail b a n k s increased s h a r p l y in F e b r u a r y — $ 4 b i l l i o n ; this w a s at
the same h i g h 14 per cent annual rate as in J a n u a r y f o l l o w i n g the
m o d e s t 3 per cent N o v e m b e r - D e c e m b e r e x p a n s i o n .
The F e b r u a r y increase w a s associated in large part w i t h h e a v y b a n k a l l o t m e n t s —
an estimated $3.5 b i l l i o n - - o f the n e w $4.3 b i l l i o n 15-month n o t e s
issued b y the T r e a s u r y on F e b r u a r y 21 p a y a b l e through credit to
accounts.
H o l d i n g s of U.S. Government securities inTax and L o a n
creased $2.7 b i l l i o n , offsetting the d e c l i n e of the two p r e v i o u s
months.
S u b s t a n t i a l c o n t r a s e a s o n a l increases occurred at b o t h w e e k l y
reporting and at other banks.
A c q u i s i t i o n s of n e w issues w e r e offset in part
h o w e v e r , by reductions in bills as tax bills acquired
in the m i d - J a n u a r y financing w e r e r e d i s t r i b u t e d .
H o l d i n g s of m u n i c i p a l and a g e n c y issues increased only
$200 m i l l i o n in F e b r u a r y following the sharp $1.7 b i l l i o n J a n u a r y
rise.
Most of the slowdown was at w e e k l y reporting banks, w h e r e
purchases of m u n i c i p a l s w e r e r e l a t i v e l y m o d e r a t e
and
h o l d i n g s of
p a r t i c i p a t i o n s and a g e n c y issues d e c l i n e d .
At banks outside the
w e e k l y r e p o r t i n g group. h o l d i n g s of "other securities" appeared to
increase by about the u s u a l amount.

T o t a l loans increased $1.1 billion in F e b r u a r y or at a
pace about a third as fast as the rapid J a n u a r y e x p a n s i o n .
Growth
in b u s i n e s s , r e a l estate, and consumer loans continued at close to
the previous m o n t h ' s rate.
Security loans, following a v e r y large
increase in J a n u a r y , rose only m o d e r a t e l y further in F e b r u a r y associated in part w i t h increased dealer loans at the time of the
T r e a s u r y note financing.
Loans to nonbank financial institutions
declined

further.

B u s i n e s s loans increased $500 m i l l i o n in F e b r u a r y — o r at
a slightly slower pace than in J a n u a r y — a n d the same as the a v e r a g e
growth over the last half of 1967.
At New Y o r k City b a n k s , they
declined c o n t r a s e a s o n a l l y w h i l e at outside banks they rose m o d e r a t e l y
further.
Most industry categories declined m o r e or increased less
than in the c o r r e s p o n d i n g w e e k s of previous years.
B o r r o w i n g by
retail trade concerns, chemical m a n u f a c t u r e r s , and public u t i l i t i e s
appeared e s p e c i a l l y w e a k .
L o a n s to primary m e t a l s c o n c e r n s , h o w e v e r ,
showed c o n s i d e r a b l e strength.
This b o r r o w i n g , w h i c h was concentrated
in term loans, w a s p r o b a b l y associated m a i n l y w i t h steel plant and
equipment e x p e n d i t u r e s but it m a y also have been used to finance inventory a c c u m u l a t i o n as w e l l .
Over the four w e e k s ended F e b r u a r y 28,
all term loans at w e e k l y reporting banks increased about $130 m i l l i o n
compared w i t h a d e c l i n e of $140 m i l l i o n in the c o m p a r a b l e four w e e k s
last year.
On the other h a n d , loans m a t u r i n g in one year or less
declined $70 m i l l i o n in F e b r u a r y 1968 compared w i t h an increase of
$75 b i l l i o n in 1967.
At the end of F e b r u a r y 1968, the ratio of term
to total loans was 45.5 per cent, almost 1-1/2 percentage points
above the year earlier level.



M o n e y s u p p l y and time d e p o s i t s .
The m o n e y supply increased
$ 2 0 0 m i l l i o n in F e b r u a r y following a $900 m i l l i o n rise in J a n u a r y .
Over the three m o n t h s , following the discount rate increase in N o v e m b e r ,
e x p a n s i o n was at a n a n n u a l rate of about 3 per cent.
U . S . Government
d e p o s i t s d e c l i n e d over the e a r l y part of F e b r u a r y but then rose
sharply on the 21st w h e n payments w e r e made for the n e w T r e a s u r y
notes.
Time and savings d e p o s i t s increased $1.3 b i l l i o n in F e b r u a r y - or close to the m o d e r a t e pace of the N o v e m b e r - D e c e m b e r period.
In
January, these d e p o s i t s had declined n o m i n a l l y on a m o n t h l y a v e r a g e
basis but e x p a n s i o n had resumed in the latter part of the m o n t h .
At w e e k l y r e p o r t i n g banks, savings d e p o s i t s increased a g a i n in
F e b r u a r y a f t e r d e c l i n i n g in January.
Part of the funds w i t h d r a w n
in J a n u a r y after the D e c e m b e r interest crediting period w e r e app a r e n t l y transferred into h i g h e r yielding savings c e r t i f i c a t e s and
exopen a c c o u n t s .
Such consumer-type time d e p o s i t s continued to
pand m o d e r a t e l y in February.
N e g o t i a b l e CD's rose only slightly
in F e b r u a r y compared w i t h substantial increases in c o r r e s p o n d i n g
w e e k s of other recent years.
B a n k reserves.
T o t a l and required reserves rose substantially
further in F e b r u a r y but less r a p i d l y than in J a n u a r y .
Free reserves
averaged about $15 m i l l i o n over the four w e e k s ending F e b r u a r y 28
compared w i t h $140 m i l l i o n over the previous five J a n u a r y w e e k s .
M e m b e r b a n k b o r r o w i n g s rose to $370 m i l l i o n and excess r e s e r v e s d e clined; in the latter part of F e b r u a r y b o r r o w i n g s exceeded excess
reserves.

NOTE:

Data exclude interbank loans. Total loans are after and type 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.
p - Preliminary
r - Revised
c - Corrected.
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 $100 million; and other loans $100 million.
2/ Beginning June 9, $1.1 billion of balances accumulated for the payment of personal loans were deducted from time deposits and "all other" loans.
3/ Beginning June 30, about $1 billion of participation certificates previously included in agricultural and "all other" loans were reclassified
as "other securities."




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