funds.
The front page earnings reported
by the commercial bank industry
has enforced its “ stockholdersensitive” image. This increases the
likelihood that the municipal bond
account will continue to be lever­
aged with tax planning to optimize
its con trib u tion to o p era tin g
earnings.
T o ach ieve th eir perform ance
goals, managers will concentrate
their purchase activity in proven
m u nicipal securities and special
situations offering maximum mar­
ket protection—“ protection” in the
sense that any purchased item has
better than a 50-50 chance of being
sold before it matures. This outlook
does n ot bode w e ll fo r issuers
of municipal debt that are not keep­
ing their fiscal health in order.
The state and local municipalities
that will benefit from this more
sophisticated environment will con­
tinue to be issuers in the Far-West
and Southeast region s. S elected
revenue bonds in the Middle-West
will also be favored.
Escrow-secured bonds have be­
come an integral feature of highperformance bank portfolios. I t is
not uncommon to find as great a
representation of escrows as highgrade general obligation bonds—
and for good reason. Escrows have
held their value and have traded, at
times, on or through their general
obligation “ A A A ” counterparts.

O T A L p o rtfo lio perform ance
has evolved as the foremost ob­
jective of active bond account man­
agers. Their goal is being pursued
through the growing use of sophisti­
cated strategy techniques and sup­
portive computer software, accord­
ing to Gerald S. Roberts, vice presi­
dent of John Nuveen & Co., Inc.,
Chicago, and manager of the firm’s
P o r tfo lio M an agem en t S ystem s.
Mr. Roberts detailed his “ Municipal
Bond A ccou n t S tra te g y fo r the
Eighties” in Nuveen’s recent P ort­
folio Strategy Letter. M ajor por­
tions of that special edition letter
follow.
W hat we foresaw in 1972 is occur­
rin g to d a y. The m unicipal bond
account has become a principal con­
tributor to commercial bank profit­
ability.
The high interest rate environ­
ments of 1969,1974, and 1979 forced
managers to reassess the security
features of municipal credits while
second-guessing the merit of many
traditional textbook exercises and
static investment policies.
Without the extraordinary devel­
opments in the credit markets that
led to wide swings in the rate cycle,
it is unlikely that positive manage­
ment policies would have reached
the le v e l th ey have to d a y. The
breadth in their application has been
equally as impressive.
During the 70s small banks added
municipals to their portfolios at a

T

rate 3.6 times greater than did the
top 100 banks. W hile a portion of
the growth difference can be ex­
plained by varying tax liability,
regio n al banks have becom e far
more active managers o f their bond
accounts w h ile exp an d in g th eir
m unicipal bond ow nership. Th e
underlying value of municipals was
enhanced by record bank earnings
as the decade came to a close.
In 1968 commercial bank munici­
pal securities ownership was domi­
nated by the nation’s top 100 banks
(in total assets). They held 44.6 % of
the municipals owned by all com­
mercial banks. B y 1978, however,
their participation had dropped to
31.6% with small banks exercising
more buying and market influence.
The “ new breed” of managers is
learning to live with inflation and
attendant tight money policies. As
evidenced by bank earnings figures,
spread m anagem ent and the in ­
crease in the quality of the loan
account are providing more flexibil­
ity for bond programs.
Based on our survey of a crosssection of key regional banks, total
program transaction volume in 1980
may exceed net new purchases by a
ratio of 1.6 to 1. Up to 70 % o f the in­
dustry could be involved in this
market stabilizing activity.
Purchases th rou gh program s
may be 80% as great as the toted
volume o f net new purchases and as
much as 125% o f projected run-off

a buying interest in escrows.
W ater and sewers are the most
preferred of the revenue bond cate­
gory. Housing and pollution bonds
are out of favor and may not gain
dramatic bank portfolio manager
acceptance in 1980. Power revenue
bonds have regained market accept­
ance. T h e ir p robable increase in
financing volume in the 80s should
be met with excellent demand by
commercial banks.
Commercial bank portfolio man­
agers were active “ bar-bell” matur­
ity enthusiasts durin g 1978 and
early 1979. I expect this to be re­
versed in 1980 with emphasis shift­
ing to the six-to-ten year maturity
range from the o n e-to -fiv e and
fifteen-year and longer areas. The
trend could be so emphatic as to
cause temporary distortions in the
market value of selected maturities.
W hile the municipal bond account
has gained mobility as an active
investment assets tool, so has the
pressure by some banks to balance
their sheltered income and liquidity
between local industrial develop­
ment loans and governments. The
increased activity in the industrial
loan area has negatively impacted
the market for marginal municipal
securities. This dimension will fur­
ther reduce the market value of
some smaller municipal debt issuers

LEGALITY TO BE APPROVED BY FOLEY & LARDNER, ATTORNEYS, MILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN
The City of Greenfield covers approximately 12 square miles in southwest Milwaukee County. The City was incorporated in 1957 and is
considered one of the fastest growing communities in Wisconsin. Greenfield is predominantly a residential community with a strong
commercial development. The City’s economic activities mostly center around commercial retail sales. Wealth and income indicators are
above state averages. Some of the largest employers in the City are: Chocolate House (manufacture and wholesale distribution of
chocolates and candies, 80 employees); Mount Carmel Nursing Home (privately owned nursing home, 431 employees); Northwestern
Photo Company (photo finishers, 52 employees); Target Stores, Inc. (discount store and bakery, 230 employees); and WIENM Properties
(K-Mart, discount department store, 200 employees). Bank deposits in Greenfield as of December 31, 1978, were in excess of
$60,724,000.
The proceeds of these bonds will be used for the following purposes: $1,515,000 for providing street improvement; $731,000 for
constructing and improving water mains; $690,000 for construction and improvements of storm sewer drains; $669,000 for construction
and improvement of sewers and $450,000 for construction of an engine house. In the opinion of counsel, these bonds are legal and
binding general obligations of Greenfield, Wisconsin, and all taxable property located therein is subject to the levy of sufficient taxes to
pay the principal of and interest on the bonds without limit as to rate or amount.
