Treasury Announces Marketable Borrowing Estimates
April 29, 2024

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 the April – June 2024 and July – September
2024 quarters.
During the April – June 2024 quarter, Treasury expects to borrow $243 billion in privatelyheld net marketable debt, assuming an end-of-June cash balance of $750 billion.[2] The
borrowing estimate is $41 billion higher than announced in January 2024, largely due
to lower cash receipts, partially o set by a higher beginning of quarter cash balance.[3]
During the July – September 2024 quarter, Treasury expects to borrow $847 billion in
privately-held net marketable debt, assuming an end-of-September cash balance of $850
billion.
During the January – March 2024 quarter, Treasury borrowed $748 billion in privately-held net
marketable debt and ended the quarter with a cash balance of $775 billion. In January 2024,
Treasury estimated borrowing of $760 billion and assumed an end-of-March cash balance of
$750 billion. Privately-held net marketable borrowing was $12 billion lower largely because
higher cash receipts and lower outlays were partially o set by a $25 billion higher ending cash
balance.
Additional financing details relating to Treasuryʼs Quarterly Refunding will be released at 8:30
a.m. on Wednesday, May 1, 2024.

[1] Privately-held net marketable borrowing excludes rollovers (auction “add-ons”) of Treasury securities held in the Federal
Reserve System Open Market Account (SOMA) but includes financing required due to SOMA redemptions. Secondary market
purchases of Treasury securities by SOMA do not directly change net privately-held marketable borrowing but, all else equal, when
the securities mature and assuming the Federal Reserve does not redeem any maturing securities, would increase the amount of
cash raised for a given privately-held auction siz e by increasing the SOMA “add-on” amount. Additionally, buybacks are not
expected to significantly a ect privately-held net marketable borrowing as new issuance replaces securities that are bought back.
[2]

[3] $23 billion of SOMA Treasury holdings dated June 30, 2024, are projected to be redeemed on July 1, 2024. These
redemptions are expected to be considered by the Federal Reserve as part of the June redemption cap but are not reflected in the
$243 billion in expected borrowing above, as the redemptions will settle in July.
