Vol. 10 No. 13 July 20,1981 Des Moines, Iowa Fed Governor Gramley Says: Small Banks Will Remain Viable P R EPA R ED testimony delivered by Federal Reserve Governor Lyle E . Gramley on July 8 before the subcommittee on monopolies and commercial law of the House Committee on the Judiciary gives strong credence to the belief that small banks will survive the current changes taking place, despite dire predictions to the contrary from other sources. Governor Gramley said “The record of the past two decades and longer . . . attests to the basic strength of our nation’s depository institutions and their capacity to adapt to a changing environment.” In his testimony he also said: “ Further indication of the ability of commercial banks to compete can be found in the history of their earnings. Rates of return on assets and equity capital for the banking industry are presented in the accompanying table. For the industry as a whole, profitability has risen over the past thirty years. Evidently, the commer cial banking system has coped quite successfully with innovation and change. “ The earnings experience of all banks or thrifts, however, need not reflect the problems of smaller institutions. Data for these smaller institutions is more difficult to obtain. This table, however, shows earnings of small banks over the past decade. Earnings were higher for the small banks in the second half of the decade than in the first, and higher, also, than for large banks. Indeed, even ratios of earnings to capital for small banks exceed those for large banks, despite the fact that ratios of capital to assets of small banks are roughly double those of larger banks. “There is other evidence suppor ting the view that small banks can survive in the current environment. For 1980, a detailed sample of small banks shows that, in 156 of 265 Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas, the smallest size category of banks in each area earned a higher average return on assets than the largest size group in each area. Thus even in these large and highly competitive urban markets, small banks have been competing effective lyHow is it possible for a small bank, with (say) less than $100 million of assets, to hold its own against multi-billion dollar banks? P art of the answer is that there are relatively few economies of large scale operations in commercial banking. That conclusion has emerged from a number of careful empirical studies. “ In addition, small banks offer many of the unique services of the specialty shop. A customer may be able to talk directly to the senior bank officers, rather than to a branch manager who has limited decision making power. Moreover, if a customer requires a specialized bank service that cannot be supplied by the small bank directly, arrangements can often be made to provide it Five-Year Averages of Commercial Bank Profit Data Ratio of Ratio of Net Income Net Income to Years to Total Assets Total Equity Capital All Banks Small Banks All Banks Small Banks 1951-55 0.58 8.03 1956-60 0.68 8.50 1961-65 0.72 8.80 1966-70 0.78 10.80 1971-75 0.83 0.95 12.36 12.52 1976-80 0.78 1.06 12.56 13.16 CALL ON THE “PERFORM ANCE TEAM 99 where com m on transactions are handled uncomm only we//.

L. “ DICK” SELLON through one of the small bank’s correspondents. “ I would hazard the guess that there will continue to be a substantial demand for the specialized services that small banks provide.” Referring to the recent mergers of non-financial institutions into con glomerates that sell Money Market Funds and other financial products, Mr. Gramley stated: “The success of recent financial conglomerates has yet to be proven. Can a salesperson in a brokerage office be as knowledgeable about money market funds, life insurance and real estate as he is about stocks and bonds? That is not clear. The specialist in each of these areas may have an advantage in information and experience. In addition, the commission system may orient the salesperson towards his major product, rather than other less remunerative lines. “ One important question is how to achieve an equitable environment for competition among commercial banks, thrift institutions, and other producers of financial services.

In addition, we believe, the Federal Reserve should have the authority to define transactions accounts for purposes of reserve requirements so as to include the many new types of plans with transactions capability that may develop.” □ Ben Haller Purchases Malcolm Freeland’s Stock Editor Ben Haller, J r ., a 35-year veteran with the N orthwestern B anker , has purchased the stock of Publisher Malcolm Freeland, who has been with the magazine more than 34 years.
