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

LEGALITY TO BE APPROVED BY AHLERS, COONEY, DORWEILER, HAYNIE& SMITH, ATTORNEYS
DES MOINES, IOWA
Pella, Iowa is located 50 miles southeast of Des Moines, Iowa’s State Capitol. In recent years it has become a tourist attraction, with tour­
ists coming for the Tulip Festival held the second weekend in May since the beginning Tulip Day, held May 18,1935. The area surrounding
the City is agricultural . In the past coal was mined in the area, but currently those areas are now farmed or used for wild life conservation.
There are nine manufacturing plants and a variety of small industries and processing plants in the City. The products of some of these
industries are heavy and light farm equipment, windows, doors, elevators, farm apparel, uniforms, processed fruit drink, hog catchers
fertilizer businesses, egg processing, dye-making and greenhouses. Industry makes up most of the jobs in the area and some of the major
emp oyers within the City are: Pella Rolscreen (1,991 employees); Van Gorp Corp. (142 employees); Vermeer Manufacturing (903
employees); Central College (84 employees) and Pella Manufacturing (76 employees). Pella’s major highway is Highway 163. There are
two banks located in Pella with total deposits as of December 31, 1979, in excess of $75,860,000.
These bonds are being issued under the provisions of Chapter 384, Code of Iowa, 1979, as amended, to finance the updating of the sewer
system and construction of a new Sewage Treatment Plant. In the opinion of counsel, these bonds are legal and binding general
obligations of the City of Pella, Iowa, 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.

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-

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-
