Sources and Uses Table
WASHINGTON -- The U.S. Department of the Treasury today announced its current estimates of
privately-held net marketable borrowing[1] for July – September 2019 and October – December
2019 quarters:
During the July – September 2019 quarter, Treasury expects to borrow $433 billion in
privately-held net marketable debt, assuming an end-of-September cash balance of $350
billion. The borrowing estimate is $274 billion higher than announced in April 2019. The
increase in borrowing is primarily driven by changes in cash balance assumptions.[2]
During the October – December 2019 quarter, Treasury expects to borrow $381 billion in
privately-held net marketable debt, assuming an end-of-December cash balance of $410
billion.
During the April – June 2019 quarter, Treasury borrowed $40 billion in privately-held net
marketable debt and ended the quarter with a cash balance of $264 billion. In April 2019,
Treasury estimated privately-held net marketable borrowing of $30 billion and assumed an endof-June cash balance of $270 billion.2 The change in borrowing resulted from lower net cash
flows partially o set by the lower end-of-quarter cash balance.
Additional financing details relating to Treasury’s Quarterly Refunding will be released at 8:30
a.m. on Wednesday, July 31, 2019.
