BankM^nd Monetary Developments i n September I960

commercial bank credit increased #2.li b i l l i o n
'ise than i s usual for t h i s month. Holdings of
_x
,
showed a substantial cctitraseasonal expansion of
more than { I M p t , and loans increased $1 b i l l i o n , about the same as In
most otherog^Mt years. Tax period borrowing by businesses arid security
brokers ancf dealers was heavier than usual but substantial repayments
occurred at the month end.
i

During the third quarter of the year t o t a l loans and investments at
commercial banks increased flu 7 b i l l i o n , much more than i n any other recent
year. Holdings of U. S. Government s e c u r i t i e s , which usually increase only
s l i g h t l y or decline over t h i s period, rose f 3 . i b i l l i o n . Loan growth was
moderate and, in substantial part, in security loans Credit expansion at c i t y
banks was unusually large and mainly in holdings of U. S. Government
' "
securities; at nonweekly reporting banks, t o t a l loans and holdings of U. S.
Government s e c u r i t i e s both increased somewhat more than usual.
Business loans rose #600 million in September, s l i g h t l y more than
l a s t year and s l i g h t l y l e s s than in 1956 and 195>5* Business borrowing over
the f i r s t three weeks of September I960, covering the tax payment period, was
somewhat larger than in any other recent year but net repayments i n l a t e
September also were larger than usual. Corporate tax payments during
September were about the same as in September 1959, but there were no maturing
tax anticipation s e c u r i t i e s to apply against t h i s year's taxes as there were
a year ago. In spite of the large September r i s e , business loans at the end
of the quarter were s l i g h t l y below the mid-year l e v e l . In most other recent
years, these loans had shown substantial growth over the third quarter.
^
Loans to public u t i l i t i e s and metals manufacturers increased subs t a n t i a l l y over September accounting f o r almost half the t o t a l business loan
expansion at c i t y banks. Loans to trade concerns, which had been showing a
contraseasonal decline e a r l i e r in the third quarter, were somewhat larger
than usual i n September© Expansion in loans to food processors and
commodity dealers, however, continued to be smaller than in most other recent
years# Loans to most other business borrowers increased as i s usual in
September.
Loans to nonbank financial i n s t i t u t i o n s declined $100 million in
September as a usual midmonth r i s e associated with quarterly tax borrowing
^ h a n o f f s e t by prior and subsequent declines. These loans declined
SwOO million over the third quarter, probably reflecting in part substantial
capital market financing by finance companies.




Security loans increased $200 million in September, about twothirds of i t in loans t o U. S. Government s e c u r i t i e s dealers* These loans
increased much more than usual around the mid-September tax date, when
businesses were liquidating large amounts of s e c u r i t i e s , but they subsequently
?•. fh&rply* Over the July-September period, security loans increased
$500 million compared with r e l a t i v e l y substantial declines in most other
years.
Consumer loans increased only moderately further in September. So far
3ne®™t'» growth in these loans has been well below the sharp expansions of
l"59 and 1955* but roughly comparable with most other recent years* Real
estate loans showed l i t t l e further change at c i t y banks in September but
probably continued t o r i s e moderately at smaller banks. So far t h i s year,
growth in these loans has f a l l e n f a r short of that of most past years.
Deposit ratios. The ratio of t o t a l loans to t o t a l deposits at
a l l commercial banks declined s l i g h t l y in September to 56.3 per cent.
Ratios at c i t y banks, while down somewhat from e a r l i e r peaks, are
appreciably above year ago l e v e l s , while those at country and nonmember
banks remain close t o peak levels*
Deposits and currency. Seasonally adjusted demand deposit and
currency holdings of businesses and individuals declined $100 million in
September, a f t e r showing no change in August on the basis of revised data.
Since the May low, the money supply has risen H b i l l i o n , or at an annual
rate of about 2 per cent. At the month end i t was 1-1/2 per cent below the
yeaivago l e v e l .
Seasonally adjusted semimonthly averages of daily demand deposits
adjusted at member banks increased $560 million between the second half of
August and the second half of September. These deposits are now about $l.li
b i l l i o n above t h e i r early June low*
Se

Government deposits at commercial banks increased $2 b i l l i o n
between the l a s t Wednesday of August and the l a s t Wednesday of September, to
the exceptionally high l e v e l of more than $7-1/2 b i l l i o n . While these deposits
had increased moderately in September l a s t year, in a l l other recent years
they had declined.
Time deposits at a l l commercial banks increased substantially
further in September, $700 million on a seasonally adjusted b a s i s . Unusually
rapid expansion began in June and over the past four months, growth has been
at an annual rate of about 15 per cent. Growth in deposits at mutual savings
banks has been moderate and l i t t l e different from that of most other recent
years •




Deposit turnover*
The seasonally adjusted annual rate of demand
deposit turnover at banks outside New York and other f i n a n c i a l centers
declined from 26.6 in August t o 26.0 (preliminary) In September. This was
over 5 per cent above the September l e v e l l a s t year.
Bank reserves. Free reserves of a l l member banks averaged # 1 0
million in September, compared with $250 million in August. Borrowings
declined to an average #225 million and excess reserves rose t o $6W million.
A higher l e v e l of free reserves at country banks accounted f o r about half the
t o t a l increase in free reserves. Also net borrowed reserves declined somewhat at central reserve and reserve c i t y banks. Seasonally adjusted t o t a l
reserves rose substantially further in September. Growth during the third
quarter brought the seasonally adjusted l e v e l to somewhat above that in
December 1959.
E f f e c t i v e September 1# reserve c i t y and central reserve c i t y banks
were permitted to count vault cash i n excess of 1 per cent of t h e i r net demand
deposits rather than 2 per cent. This increased reserves at reserve c i t y banks
by an estimated $200 million and at central reserve c i t y banks by $10 million.
On a daily average basis over the month of September, cash allowed as reserves
increased $1*80 million. In addition to the ftmds made available on September 1
t h i s reflected the carry-over e f f e c t of $380 million of reserves released t o
country banks on August 25 through Board action. Also, on September 1, about
$125 million of reserves were released to central reserve c i t y banks when
reserve requirements against net demand deposits were reduced to 17-1/2 per
cent from 18 per cent. A $275 million increase in Reserve Bank f l o a t also
supplied reserves over September.
During September, reserves were absorbed by a $330 million reduction
in Federal Reserve holdings of U. S. Government s e c u r i t i e s , about one-third
of which were under repurchase agreements. An additional $200 million of funds
was drained through foreign operations. So f a r t h i s year, gold stock has
declined $610 million, with over three-quarters of the reduction occurring in
the third quarter. In the f i r s t nine months of 1959, gold stock had declined
$1,050 million. So far in I960, foreign deposits at the Reserve Banks have
declined about $150 million o f f s e t t i n g in part the e f f e c t of the gold outflow
on reserves. Last year, foreign deposits had increased somewhat. Required
reserves, exclusive of the change in reserve requirements, increased about
$90 million in September.
