Banks’ IR A Pricing Seeks to M axim ize Customer Return
NE common element noted in a
broad range of methods selected
by banks for pricing IR A accounts
is the goal of giving the bank
customer a fair market rate of
return. This is keeping banks highly
competitive with other types of
financial institutions who are also
gearing up to get a share of the ex­
panded IR A market that will be
available on January 1, 1982.
On that date, all workers, re­
gardless of whether they have an ap­
proved retirement plan at their place
o f employment, may open a personal
IR A account and deposit up to
$2,000 tax free each year. It is
estimated by the American Bankers
Association that this market encom­
passes 40 million workers and could
mean anywhere from $40 to $80
billion deposits annually.
The N o r t h w e s t e r n B a n k e r con­
tacted banks in a few major cities
last week to determine what IRA
pricing methods will be used for the
new accounts. Banks may offer a
fixed rate of return or a variable
rate. Generally, most banks con­
tacted have tied their pricing to
Treasury bills and notes in some
way. One notable exception is
Security National Bank of Sioux Ci­
ty, la., which has decided to base its
variable or floating rate at 3%
points below the Citibank prime
lending rate, using a daily average
for a three-month period. The rate

O

will be changed quarterly.
Another interesting innovation
will be tried at United States Na­
tional Bank of Omaha, which will
guarantee a 10% floor initially on
IR A accounts, tied to its floating
rate computation. U.S. National
also will offer payroll deduction
through employers as an induce­
ment to workers to open IR A ac­
counts.
First National Bank of Omaha
has developed two slide shows to
promote IR A accounts. One runs 12
minutes and will be used with small
groups of customers, either in the
bank or off-premises. The other runs
for three minutes, is customer ac­
tivated and is designed for use in the
lobby by individual customers.
First National Bank of Lincoln
will sign all its IR A accounts for ex­
piration December 31, 1983. Thus,
accounts opened from January 1,
1982, through June 30, 1982, all will
qualify within the required 18month term and all accounts will ex­
pire at the same time, eliminating
the need to flag accounts for renewal
on varying dates.
Here is how some banks have said
they will price IR A accounts start­
ing January 1, 1982:
Iowa-Des Natl. Bank, Des Moines
Fixed: Pegged to 52-week T-bill rate.
Variable: 52-week T-Bill rate,
changing monthly

Bankers Trust, Des Moines
Fixed: 18-month CD starting Jan. 1
@ 1 2 % , rate to be changed monthly
for new accounts; or, 30-month CD
(now 12.95%) set bi-weekly by Fed
auction; or, 182 day MM certificate
indexed to auction average of
26-week T-Bills, minimum $10,000.
Variable: 18-month CD indexed to
90-day T-Bills, simple interest,
changed monthly.
United Central Bank of Des Moines
Fixed: CD @ 12% on 18-month
Treasury notes, new rate monthly.
Variable: 11%% based on 18-month
Treasury note average.
Security Natl. Bank, Sioux City
Fixed: 18-month CD based on
average between one-year T-Bill and
two-year Treasury note, $1,000
minimum to open.
Variable: No minimum deposit, time
open account based on 3Vi points
under Citibank prime lending rate,
figured on daily average for three
months.
Sioux City bank
Fixed: 11Va% money market rate,
guaranteed for 18 months.
Variable: Based on 90-day T-Bill on
last auction before the next quarter.
First National Bank, Omaha
Fixed: Bank’s 30-month CD rate
plus one-half (%) of one percent.
Variable: 18-month passbook based
on six month T-Bill auction average

1st Bank System M ay Buy Banks of Iow a
Banks of Iowa, Inc., said last
week it has agreed to be acquired by
F irst Bank S ystem s, Inc., a
M in n e a p o lis -b a se d m u lti-b a n k
holding company, providing current
laws are changed to permit the sale.
The merger agreement announced
expires in 15 years if the laws are
not changed by then to permit the
acquisition.
Banks of Iowa owns Valley Na­
tional Bank in Des Moines as well as
banks in Burlington, Cedar Falls,
Cedar Rapids, Council B luffs,
Davenport, Dubuque, Fort Mad­
ison, Ottumwa and Sioux City.
The deal could be worth as much
as $150 million to $250 million
based on current values. If Banks of
Iowa becom es more profitable
before the merger is complete, the
total value could actually rise much
higher under terms of the agreement
signed between the two companies.
The proposal calls for First Bank

Systems to pay at least IV2 times
the book value of Banks of Iowa
stock. As of Sept. 30 that was
$43.71 a share, making the lowest
price $65.57, assuming the book
value doesn’t decline before the
merger could be completed. Under a
formula based on Banks of Iowa
earnings, the price could be as much
as 2Vz times book value, or $109.28,
based on the Sept. 30 figure.
In a related agreement, First
Banks said it would buy the 21 per­
cent interest in Banks of Iowa cur­
rently held by Schwartz for about
$27.3 million. The Minneapolis com­
pany said it intends to buy the
Schwartz stock as soon as possible,
perhaps within a few months. First
Banks said it was buying the
Schwartz block for l lA times book
value, or aobut $54.65 a share.
Under terms of the agreement,
the Schwartz shares would be con­
verted into nonvoting common

making the stock non-voting, First
Banks is attempting to get around
the provisions of federal law that
prohibit bank holding companies
from buying banks in other states.
Banks of Iowa is the largest bank
holding company based in the state.
It controls 10 banks, and owns a
mortgage banking company and an
extensive banking computer opera­
tion. As of Sept. 30 its assets were
about $1.4 billion.
Its largest bank is Merchants Na­
tional Bank of Cedar Rapids, the
state’s fourth largest as of Dec. 31,
1980. Banks of Iowa was founded 14
years ago in Cedar Rapids; its head­
quarters were moved to Des Moines
last year.
But by contrast First Bank
System has 92 banks with 142
separate locations. As of Sept.
30 its assets were more than
$14 billion.
