foreign deposits when it submitted
to Congress last year its study of de­
posit insurance. FDIC said it de­
cided against the proposal because it
would not increase revenue from in­
surance premiums and would be
highly controversial, pitting large
banks against small banks.
The Fed and the Comptroller have
not taken a formal position on Sen.
Proxmire’s proposed amendment,
but indicate they think such a step
should be considered in a review of
the insurance system and not at­
tached to S. 2851.
Sen. Proxmire pointed to the
FDIC rescue plan of Continental
Bank of Chicago as the basis for his
amendment. The Continental relied
heavily on foreign deposits, holding
$16.6 billion at its foreign offices at
the end of 1983, compared to $13.4
billion in domestic deposits the
same date. “ In the end, the principal
beneficiaries of the Continental
rescue program were its foreign de­
positors,’ ’ he said, adding that this
amounts to a “ built-in discrimina­
tion against small banks.’ ’ He said
the money center banks’ advantage
“ will become even worse now that
we have firmly established the pre­
cedent that we will not allow a large
bank to fail.’ ’
Sen. Proxmire estimates that for­
eign office deposits of U.S. banks hit
$247 billion, or about 20% of total
U.S. bank deposits, by the end of
March 31,1984.
