Vol. 9 No.5 Des Moines, lowa Focus On New Government Agency H E Depository Institutions Deregulation Committee—the fewest financial interagency group Washington—is likely to be the focus of considerable attention for bankers, not just for the next months, but for the next six years. Vested in the committee—which is made up of the heads of the Fed eral Reserve, FD IC , Federal Home Loan Bank Board, National Credit Union Administration and Treasury Department, with the Comptroller of the Currency as a non-voting member— is the authority to man age deposit interest rates, an authority which (until March 31 of this year) had been controlled in large by the Congress. The omnibus financial deregu lation law which was signed by the President on that date, created the Depository Institutions Deregula tion Committee for the specific pur pose of managing and phasing up all deposit interest limits toward the end of Regulation Q on March 31, 1986. During this interim period, the committee’s goal is to move de posit interest limits toward market rates. T Competition From the standpoint o f competi tion between commercial banks and the specialized thrift institutions, it is expected that as the committee moves toward elimination of Regu lation Q, the interest rate gap will tend to matter less and less as a market reality. Specialized thrift in stitutions will be able to maintain the quarter percent interest advant age during the six-year period, but only on deposit instruments which they were allowed to offer on or be fore December 10, 1975. Particular ly in the area of creating new deposit instruments which could make com mercial banks more competitive, the procedures under which the com mittee will operate are of importance to bankers. For example, the com mittee can decide by a majority vote o f its members to create a new de posit instrument, whereas in the past the objections o f a single regu latory agency were sufficient to stymie the creation of new types of deposits. Federal Reserve Chairman Paul May 26,1980 Volcker was elected at the commit tee’s first meeting in early M ay to chair the panel, and Irvin Sprague, chairman of the F D IC , was elected vice chairman o f the panel. A t the first meeting, the commit tee began to foreshadow the types of action that it will be taking. For ex ample, the committee decided that, effective immediately, it will not re quire the imposition o f early with drawal penalties on accumulated in terest (as opposed to principal) when a time deposit has been renew ed automatically on the same terms that it had previously. The commit tee also decided to allow an optional seven-day grace period in which de pository institutions can continue to pay interest on certificates of de posit which have matured. On another front, the committee proposed to prohibit the offering of premiums for deposits by all finan cial institutions. I t also proposed that any finders’ fees paid in con nection with the acquisition o f de posits be included in calculation of the interest paid on those deposits under Regulation Q. Looking beyond the first meeting of the Depository Institutions De regulation Committee, the Am eri can Bankers Association petitioned the panel to end the interest rate differential on six-month $10,000 “ money market’ ’ certificates of deNEW AGENCY . . .

(Continued from front page) posit at all interest rate levels. Under rules set last year, if the maximum allowable interest rate on the money market certificates should fall to 9 % or less, the quarter percent interest rate disadvantage would be reimposed upon banks. The five members o f the Deposit ory Institutions Deregulation Com mittee met Tuesday, M ay 20, in an extended session, then adjourned until Friday, M ay 23, to further consider whether to retain or elimi nate the quarter percent rate differ ential favoring thrift institutions. This meeting followed an ur gent call from the American Bank ers Association to eliminate immed iately the interest rate differential on money market certificates o f de posit at all interest rate levels. The Association said a M ay 7-8 telephone survey of 140 full service bank shows that reimposition o f the quarter percent interest rate disad vantage on commercial banks would cause many banks to have to reduce their lending, particularly to farm, small business and home mortgage borrowers. In a M ay 13 letter to the Deposit ory Institutions Deregulation Com mittee, A B A Executive Vice Presi dent W illis W . Alexander said a re imposition of the interest rate differ ential would seriously impair the ability o f banks to make small busi ness, agricultural and home mort gage loans, because a significant portion o f the commercial banks’ time and savings base is made up of certificates which will be subjected to a differential if the Committee fails to act. A B A had already petitioned the Deregulation Committee to end the differential on money market CDs. The new letter renewed that call and added new information for the regu latory agencies to consider. The maximum rate payable on the https://fraser.stlouisfed.org Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis 10th and Walnut certificates fluctuates with the rate on six-month Treasury bills. A bove the 9% level, all financial institu tions have an equal rate ceiling on the certificates. Below the 9 % level, the differential is reimposed—a differential o f up to one-quarter per cent. On M ay 12 , the rate for six-month Treasury bills fell to 8.78%; effect ive M ay 15, therefore, the different ial could be reimposed on the money market certificates. The maximum for thrift institutions would be 9 %; and the maximum for banks would be 8.78%. A B A ’s telephone survey covered 140 banks in 15 states; 110 of the banks are under $100 million in total assets. The survey, M r. Alexander said, suggests that most banks, particu larly banks under $100 million, are heavily dependent on money market certificates as a source of funds. Money market certificates average 32% o f total time and savings de posits at the 140 banks surveyed. Moreover, “ many of the banks that are heavily dependent on money market certificates also have high loan-deposit ratios and would have severe liquidity problems if they experienced a runoff in their money market certificates,” Mr. Alexander asserted. The 140 banks have an average loan-deposit ratio of 69 %, with farm and small business loans averaging 31% o f the total, and home mort gages accounting for 26% of the total. “ The result of re-establishing the differential for these now ratesensitive funds will certainly be dis intermediation from these banks with predictable impairment of their ability to serve agricultural, small business and residential mortgage needs.” Mr. Alexander warned. Mutual Funds The Depository Institutions De (816) 234-2000 regulation Committee has other im plications for bankers, as well. On the money market mutual fund front, the A B A is petitioning that committee to compare at each of its quarterly meetings the competitive conditions of regulated financial in stitutions versus unregulated mon ey market funds. A B A is recom mending that the committee sup port the regulation o f money market mutual funds on the basis o f their function as financial intermediaries. The committee should permit new types of deposit instruments and/or should alter the terms of existing deposit instruments as necessary to maintain the competitive viability of regulated depository institutions. This petition is part of a compre hensive plan to meet the competi tive challenge posed by money mar ket funds. Under other elements of the plan, A B A will: • Seek legislation granting the Federal Reserve permanent statu tory authority to place reserve re quirements on transaction balances m aintained b y m oney m arket mutual funds. A s a new type of ac count, they should be subject im mediately to reserve requirements specified in the omnibus deregulat ion law. • Seek regulations and legislation if necessary to combat the mislead ing advertising strategy and claims of money market mutual funds by requiring them to make at least the following disclosures in clear terms: that the balances they hold are in vestments, not deposits; that those balances are not insured on any basis comparable to balances held in regulated depositories, and that the transaction instrument the funds offer is a payable through draft, not a check, which might be treated as a collection item rather than a cash item. • Aggressively seek legislation allowing trust departments to offer comingled agency accounts to com- 5 CALL ON THE “PERFORM ANCE TEAM ” where comm on transactions are handled uncomm only well, FIRST NATIONALLINCOLN 13th & M Street • Lincoln, Nebraska 68501 » Member, F.D.I.C. pete with money market mutual funds. To provide equity for banks which do not have trust depart ments, banks should be permitted to advertise the pooling of deposits. • Support efforts to amend the Glass-Stenagall A c t to permit banks to underwrite municipal rev enue bonds. This procompetitive re form would be in the public interest in that it would reduce the cost of municipal financing while at the same time providing banks with more competitive earning opportun ities as they move toward full dereg ulation. • M ove ahead with efforts to achieve comprehensive usury relief at the earliest possible date in order to achieve equity for banks and other regulated depositories. • Support legislation to require money market mutual funds to use the same valuation procedures as other mutual funds. (Current valu ation procedures tend to make shares look like deposits.) Daily net asset value should be reflected in the value of the shares. A B A already has commended the Federal Reserve for imposing re serve requirements on the funds and urged the Fed to deny a petition by the Investment Company Institute that the reserves be removed. In addition, A B A has filed a petition with the Securities and Exchange Commission asking the SEC to en force its Rule 156 against the money market mutual funds so as to elimi- Estate Appraisals Purchase of Collections nate all misleading advertising with respect to the character of the money market funds’ payment in strument. □ Prime Drops to 151/2% Chase Manhattan Bank dropped its prime to 15*/2 % on M ay 22.
