percent advance in the first. Over the past four quarters real
GDP has increased by a rapid 3.9 percent.
Consumer spending accelerated in the third quarter to 5.8 percent at an annual rate after only a 0.9 percent gain in the second. A swing in motor vehicle purchases was partly
responsible, but growth picked up for other types of consumer
spending as well. Business investment in capital equipment
posted its second straight quarterly increase above 20 percent,
while investment in structures grew moderately after declines
in the prior two quarters. The major negative factors in the third
quarter were slower inventory accumulation and deterioration
in the net export trade deficit.
The broad measures of inflation in the national income accounts were very tame in the third quarter. The chain-weighted
price index for GDP rose at a 1.5 percent annual rate, the smallest quarterly gain in 5 years. The domestic purchases index
(which subtracts exports and adds imports to get a measure of
prices paid by U.S. residents) rose at a 1.3 percent pace, a bit

Real consumer spending surged at a 5.7 percent annual rate
in the third quarter, following a pause in the second. A rebound
in motor vehicle purchases accounted for much of the strength,
after special factors depressed second quarter results. So far this
year, spending has advanced at a 4 percent annual rate, compared to 2.7 percent during 1996.
The share of after-tax income devoted to personal saving fell
to 3.6 percent in the third quarter. The personal saving rate has
averaged only 3.8 percent this year, down from 4.2 percent in
1996 and on track to be the lowest in the postwar history of the
series.

Industrial production and capacity utilization
Industrial production in manufacturing, mining, and utilities
has grown at a 5.1 percent annual rate through the first 10
months of 1997. This follows increases of 4.3 percent during all
of 1996 and 1.1 percent during 1995.
Manufacturing output, which accounts for 86 percent of industrial production, has risen at a 5.5 percent rate since last December, spurred by huge advances in computers and
semiconductors. Excluding these items, factory output is up at
a more subdued 3.1 percent pace.
The expansion of industrial capacity has proceeded at a rapid
3.9 percent annual rate so far during 1997, the strongest pace
since the early 1970’s. Even so, growth of industrial production

4

PROFILE OF THE ECONOMY

has outpaced it, pushing the industrial capacity utilization rate
up to 84.3 percent in October from 83.5 percent at the end of
1996. The utilization rate is currently only 0.6 percentage point
below the 84.9 percent reached at the beginning of 1995, the
peak for the current business cycle expansion.

Employment and unemployment
Strength in labor markets continues. Job growth has accelerated this year from the 1996 pace and the unemployment rate
has fallen to levels not seen since 1973.
Increases in jobs on nonfarm payrolls averaged 239,000 per
month over the first 10 months of this year, above the 212,000
per month averaged in 1996. Growth in October was a large
284,000, up from 161,000 averaged over the prior 2 months. Improvement was widespread in October, including the biggest
gain in manufacturing jobs since 1990.
The unemployment rate dipped to 4.7 percent in October, the
lowest figure in 24 years. The share of the working-age population that is employed held steady at 63.7 percent, only fractionally below the all-time peak of 63.9 percent reached in May.
These indicators show that the economy continues to operate at
a very high level of labor utilization.

Civilian Unemployment Rate
(In percentages)

Establishment Employment
(Monthly change in thousands)

Average hourly earnings of production and other nonsupervisory workers rose to $12.41 in October. Growth in hourly
wages over the past 12 months was 4.2 percent in nominal
terms and a strong 2 percent in real terms.

Nonfarm productivity and unit labor costs
Nonfarm business productivity (real output per hour worked)
rose at a 2.7 percent annual rate during the first three quarters
of 1997, following a 1.2 percent increase during all of 1996.
These results exceeded the long-term trend growth rate of 1.1
percent, and they represent a marked improvement over the
prior 3 years, when on balance there was no growth.
Hourly compensation costs in the nonfarm business sector
rose at a 4.1 percent annual rate during the first three quarters
of 1997. Labor costs per unit of output in the nonfarm business

sector, which combine the impact of growth of compensation
with that of productivity, were up by a 1.2 percent annual rate
so far this year. This compared to an increase of 2.1 percent during all of 1996. The 1997 rate of advance suggests that inflationary pressures remain contained.
Productivity in manufacturing grew at a 5 percent annual rate
over the first three quarters of 1997, after a 3.9 percent increase
during all of 1996. Unit labor costs in manufacturing have declined by 1.5 percent annual rate so far this year, following a
0.8 percent decline during 1996.

Current account balance
The current account is a summary of U.S. international transactions, measuring the trade in goods and services as well as
the flow of investment income on assets. On an annual basis,
the current account has been in deficit since the early 1980’s.
The current account deficit was just under $40 billion in each
of the first two quarters of this year, an annual rate of about
$158 billion. This represents a widening from a recent low of
$6 billion in 1991. The faster pace of U.S. economic growth
since that year compared with that of our major trading partners
imports at a more rapid rate than exports. In addition, the balance on investment income has dwindled as the inflow of capital into the United States boosted payments of earnings and
interest to foreigners.
The current account deficit so far this year, though large, is
still $10 billion below the all-time peak deficit in 1987. The
deficit relative to GDP has improved, dropping from 3 to 3.6
percent as a share of GDP during the 1985-1987 period to
about 2.1 percent in the first half of 1997.
The widening deficit in 1997 mainly reflected a swing from
surplus to deficit on investment income, primarily interest payments on the rapidly growing foreign holdings of U. S. Treasury securities. The balance on goods and services showed
virtually no change in the first half of 1997, although this balance deteriorated in the third quarter and was a sizable drag on
real GDP growth in that quarter.
Exchange rate of the dollar
The appreciation of the dollar, which began in the middle of
1995 and continued through 1996, accelerated in 1997. Based
on the Federal Reserve Board’s trade-weighted index of the dollar against G-10 currencies, the dollar had risen by 8.4 percent
by the end of 1996 from the all-time low reached in April 1995.
The dollar rose a further 13 percent through August before easing, but by mid-November was still 8 percent above its level at
the end of 1996.
Improvement was greatest against the yen and the deutschemark, although behavior has been quite disparate recently. Between April 1995 and December 1996, the dollar rose by 12
percent against the deutschemark and by 36 percent against the
yen. The dollar appreciated a further 20 percent against the
deutschemark through August but has declined about 8 percent
since then. The dollar rose by 10 percent against the yen from
the end of 1996 through April, declined in the subsequent 3
months, then moved back about to its April high by mid-November.
Many factors determine the level of exchange rates in international currency markets. Financial and currency uncertainty in
several overseas markets have contributed to a higher degree of
volatility this year. However, underlying economic fundamentals in the United States are sound and confidence in the dollar
remains high.
Interest rates
Short-term market interest rates have been somewhat volatile
since the spring. The rate on the 3-month bill moved above the
5.1 percent mark in August, dipped in September and October,
then moved back up again to about 5.2 percent in November.
The Federal Reserve Board has left monetary policy unchanged since raising the Federal funds rate target by one-quarter of a point in March, to 5.50 percent. The discount rate was
left unchanged at 5 percent, where it has been since January
1996. The Board took the tightening action in light of strong demand growth, which was raising the risk of inflationary pressure.

PROFILE OF THE ECONOMY

Economic growth has continued at a rapid rate since then. At
its November meeting the Board decided not to tighten monetary policy further despite the considerable forward momentum
in the economy, as such a move might have exacerbated the recent currency and stock market crises in East Asian and South
American countries.
While short-term rates fluctuated within a broad but steady
range since April, long-term interest rates have fallen. The yield
on the 30-year Treasury bond declined from over 7 percent in
April to near 6 percent by mid-November. Mortgage rates for a
30-year fixed rate conventional loan have fallen from above
8 percent in April to about 7.2 percent. Mortgage rates have
been very attractive for the past 3 years and have been one of
the factors helping to support growth in the housing market.

Net national saving and investment
Net national saving (which excludes depreciation to replace
worn-out or obsolete equipment and structures used in production) rose to 7.1 percent of net national product (NNP) in the
first half of 1997. This compared to 6.4 percent in 1996 and the
weak 3.4 percent in 1992. Despite the progress, net saving remains well below the 12.1 percent of NNP averaged in the
1950’s and 1960’s.
Recent improvement is almost entirely the result of the significant narrowing of the Federal deficit, which has reduced
government dissaving to only 0.2 percent of NNP in the first
half of 1997 from a large 4.7 percent in 1992. Private saving of
households and businesses has declined over that period, as increased wealth generated by a rising stock market appears to

have reduced households’ desire to save. Gains in corporate
profits have led to somewhat higher business saving.
Net domestic investment equaled 8.2 percent of NNP in the
first half of 1997. This was up from a low 4.9 percent in 1991
and was the first time since the late 1980’s that domestic investment has topped 8 percent. About one-quarter of investment
this year was financed by foreign inflows, which were equivalent to 2.1 percent of NNP in the first half. U.S. sources provided investment equal to 6.1 percent of NNP, only about half
as much as averaged in the 1950’s and 1960’s.

Housing
Housing activity has moderated in recent months but remains
at a very high level. Underlying fundamentals have been very
favorable, such as strong job and income growth, record levels
of consumer confidence, and low mortgage interest rates.
Starts of new homes averaged 1.46 million units at an annual
rate through the first 9 months of the year. This is down a bit
from the 1.48 million units in 1996, which was the best year for
home building since 1988. Starts of single-family homes have
not shown much growth this year, while the smaller multi-family market continues on its modest upward trend.
Sales of new single-family homes have outpaced new singlefamily starts, leading to a sharp reduction in the inventory of unsold new homes on the market. Sales of new homes have risen
to an average of over 800,000 units at an annual rate so far this
year, well above the 1996 total of 757,000, which had been the
best in a decade. Sales of existing homes also have been strong.
They averaged a 4.2 million-unit annual pace so far this year after topping the 4 million mark in 1996 for the first time since
that series began in 1968.
The rapid growth in home sales has pushed the homeownership rate to its highest level since data were first collected in
1965. The homeownership rate rose to 66 percent in the third
quarter.
Federal budget deficit
The Federal budget deficit fell to $22.6 billion in fiscal 1997,
well below the $107 billion deficit of fiscal 1996 and the smallest since 1974. The deficit represented just 0.3 percent of GDP,
the lowest since 1970. The deficit has been shrinking since
1992, when it reached an all-time high of $290 billion. The deficit has been cut by more than 90 percent over the past 5 years,
or a total of almost $270 billion.
Receipts were very strong in fiscal 1997, rising 8.7 percent.
The sharp jump in receipts was especially notable for nonwithheld individual income taxes, up more than 16 percent over the
year. Withheld individual taxes and corporate profits tax receipts also grew rapidly, reflecting the strong labor market and
rising corporate profits.
Growth in Federal spending was held to a moderate 2.7 percent in fiscal 1997. Slower growth in outlays was aided by
large spectrum auction proceeds and asset sales in the deposit
insurance account, both of which are treated as negative outlays
in budget accounting. Excluding these components, outlay
growth was about 3-3/4 percent in fiscal 1997.
Further deficit reduction is expected over the next few years,
with balance achieved by 2002. That year the budget is projected to show a surplus of $63 billion, which would be the first
surplus since 1969 and only the ninth since World War II.

FEDERAL FISCAL OPERATIONS

INTRODUCTION: Federal Fiscal Operations
Budget authority usually takes the form of appropriations
that allow obligations to be incurred and payments to be made.
Reappropriations are Congressional actions that extend the
availability of unobligated amounts that have expired or would
otherwise expire. These are counted as new budget authority
in the fiscal year of the legislation in which the reappropriation
act is included, regardless of when the amounts were originally
appropriated or when they would otherwise lapse.
Obligations generally are liquidated by the issuance of
checks or the disbursement of cash--outlays. Obligations may
also be liquidated (and outlays recorded) by the accrual of
interest on public issues of Treasury debt securities (including
an increase in redemption value of bonds outstanding); or by
the issuance of bonds, debentures, notes, monetary credits, or
electronic payments.
Refunds of collections generally are treated as reductions
of collections, whereas payments for earned-income tax credits in excess of tax liabilities are treated as outlays. Outlays
during a fiscal year may be for payment of obligations incurred
in prior years or in the same year. Outlays, therefore, flow in
part from unexpended balances of prior year budget authority
and from budget authority provided for the year in which the
money is spent. Total outlays include both budget and offbudget outlays and are stated net of offsetting collections.
Receipts are reported in the tables as either budget receipts
or offsetting collections. They are collections from the public,
excluding receipts offset against outlays. These, also called
governmental receipts, consist mainly of tax receipts (including social insurance taxes), receipts from court fines, certain
licenses, and deposits of earnings by the Federal Reserve
system. Refunds of receipts are treated as deductions from
gross receipts. Total Government receipts are compared with
total outlays in calculating the budget surplus or deficit.
Offsetting collections from other Government accounts or
the public are of a business-type or market-oriented nature.
They are classified as either collections credited to appropriations or fund accounts, or offsetting receipts (i.e., amounts
deposited in receipt accounts). The former normally can be
used without appropriation act by Congress. These occur in
two instances: (1) when authorized by law, amounts collected
for materials or services are treated as reimbursements to
appropriations. For accounting purposes, earned reimbursements are also known as revenues. These offsetting collections
are netted against gross outlays in determining net outlays
from such appropriations; and (2) in the three types of revolving funds (public enterprise, intragovernmental, and trust);
offsetting collections are netted against spending, and outlays
are reported as the net amount.
Offsetting receipts in receipt accounts cannot be used
without appropriation. They are subdivided into three categories: (1) proprietary receipts, or collections from the public,
offset against outlays by agency and by function; (2) intragovernmental transactions, or payments into receipt accounts from

governmental appropriation or fund accounts. They finance
operations within and between Government agencies and are
credited with collections from other Government accounts;
and (3) offsetting governmental receipts which include foreign
cash contributions.
Intrabudgetary transactions are subdivided into three
categories: (1) interfund transactions--payments are from one
fund group (either Federal funds or trust funds) to a receipt
account in the other fund group; (2) Federal intrafund transactions--payments and receipts both occur within the Federal
fund group; and (3) trust intrafund transactions--payments and
receipts both occur within the trust fund group.
Offsetting receipts are generally deducted from budget
authority and outlays by function, subfunction, or agency.
There are four types of receipts, however, that are deducted
from budget totals as undistributed offsetting receipts. They
are: (1) agencies’ payments (including payments by off-budget
Federal entities) as employers into employees’ retirement
funds; (2) interest received by trust funds; (3) rents and royalties on the Outer Continental Shelf lands; and (4) other interest
(i.e., that collected on Outer Continental Shelf money in
deposit funds when such money is transferred into the budget).
The Government has used the unified budget concept set
forth in the ‘‘ Report of the President’s Commission on Budget
Concepts’’ as a foundation for its budgetary analysis and
presentation since 1969. The concept calls for the budget to
include all of the Government’s fiscal transactions with the
public. Since 1971, however, various laws have been enacted
removing several Federal entities from (or creating them outside of) the budget. Other laws have moved certain off-budget
Federal entities onto the budget. Under current law, the offbudget Federal entities consist of the two Social Security trust
funds, Federal Old-Age and Survivors Insurance and the Federal Disability Insurance Trust Fund, and the Postal Service.
Although an off-budget Federal entity’s receipts, outlays,
and surplus or deficit ordinarily are not subject to targets set
by the Congressional resolution, the Balanced Budget and
Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 [commonly known as
the Gramm-Rudman-Hollings Act as amended by the Budget
Enforcement Act of 1990 (2 U.S.C. 900-922)] included offbudget surplus or deficit in calculating deficit targets under that
act and in calculating excess deficit. Partly for this reason,
attention has focused on both on- and off-budget receipts,
outlays, and deficit of the Government.
Tables FFO-1, FFO-2, and FFO-3 are published quarterly and cover 5 years of data, estimates for 2 years, detail for
13 months, and fiscal year-to-date data. They provide a summary of data relating to Federal fiscal operations reported by
Federal entities and disbursing officers, and daily reports from
the Federal Reserve banks. They also detail accounting transactions affecting receipts and outlays of the Government and
off-budget Federal entities and their related effect on assets and
liabilities of the Government. Data are derived from the

FEDERAL FISCAL OPERATIONS
‘‘Monthly Treasury Statement of Receipts and Outlays of the
United States Government.’’
• Table FFO-1 summarizes the amount of total receipts,
outlays, and surplus or deficit, as well as transactions in
Federal securities, monetary assets, and balances in Treasury
operating cash.
• Table FFO-2 includes on- and off-budget receipts by
source. Amounts represent income taxes, social insurance
taxes, net contributions for other insurance and retirement,
excise taxes, estate and gift taxes, customs duties, and net
miscellaneous receipts.
• Table FFO-3 details on- and off-budget outlays by
agency.
• Table FFO-4 summarizes internal revenue collections
by States and other areas and by type of tax. Amounts reported
are collections made in a fiscal year. They span several tax

7

liability years because they consist of prepayments (i.e., estimated tax payments and taxes withheld by employers for
individual income and Social Security taxes), of payments
made with tax returns, and of subsequent payments made after
tax returns are due or are filed (i.e., payments with delinquent
returns or on delinquent accounts).
It is important to note that these data do not necessarily
reflect the Federal tax burden of individual States. Amounts
are reported based on the primary filing address provided by
each taxpayer or reporting entity. For multistate corporations,
the address may reflect only the State where such a corporation
reported its taxes from a principal office rather than other
States where income was earned or where individual income
and Social Security taxes were withheld. In addition, an individual may reside in one State and work in another.

Receipts by Source

Third-Quarter Receipts
The following capsule analysis of budget receipts,
by source, for the third quarter of fiscal 1997 supplements fiscal data reported in the September issue of the ‘‘Treasury Bulletin.’’ At the time of that
issue’s release, not enough data were available to
analyze adequately collections for the quarter.
Individual income taxes----Individual income tax receipts
were $239.4 billion for the third quarter of fiscal 1997. This is
an increase of $41.1 billion over the comparable prior year
quarter. Withheld receipts increased by $18.2 billion and nonwithheld receipts increased by $25.5 billion during this period.
Refunds increased by $2.6 billion over the comparable fiscal
1996 quarter. There was an increase of $7.5 billion in accounting adjustments between individual income tax receipts and
the Social Security and Medicare trust funds over the comparable quarter in fiscal 1996.
Corporation income taxes----Net corporate income tax receipts were $71.0 billion for the third quarter of fiscal 1997.
This was an increase of $6.6 billion over the comparable prior
year quarter. Gross receipts were $6.6 billion higher and refunds were unchanged. The increase reflects increased corporate profits.
Employment taxes and contributions----Employment
taxes and contributions receipts for the April-June 1997 quarter were $138.5 billion, a decrease of $1.1 billion over the
comparable prior year quarter. Receipts to the Old-Age Survivors Insurance Trust Fund increased $2.7 billion. Receipts to
the Disability Insurance and Hospital Insurance trust funds
decreased by $1.1 billion and $2.6 billion, respectively. There
was a $5.6 billion accounting adjustment for prior years’ em-

ployment tax liabilities made in the third quarter of fiscal
1996, while there was a -$1.9 billion adjustment made in the
third quarter of fiscal 1997.
Unemployment insurance----Unemployment insurance
receipts for the third quarter of fiscal 1997 were $13.8 billion, which is a $0.3 billion decrease over the comparable
quarter of fiscal 1996. State taxes deposited in the U.S. Treasury decreased by $0.4 billion, and Federal Unemployment
Tax Act (FUTA) receipts increased by $0.1 billion. Railroad
unemployment tax receipts increased negligibly from the
comparable quarter of fiscal 1996.
Contributions for other insurance and retirement---Contributions for other retirement were $1.1 billion for the
third quarter of fiscal 1997. There was a negligible increase
over receipts from the comparable quarter of fiscal 1996. The
growth in contributions will remain flat over the next few
years as the number of employees covered by the Federal
employees’ retirement system (FERS) grows slowly relative
to those covered under the civil service retirement system
(CSRS).
Excise taxes----Net excise tax receipts for the third quarter
of fiscal 1997 were $14.8 billion, an increase of $1.8 billion
over the comparable prior year quarter. Total excise tax refunds for the quarter were $0.4 billion, which was unchanged
over the comparable prior year quarter.
Estate and gift taxes----Net estate and gift tax receipts
were $6.2 billion for the April through June quarter of fiscal
1997. These receipts are an increase of $2.0 billion over the
previous quarter and an increase of $1.0 billion over the same
quarter in fiscal 1996.

Receipts by Source, con.
Customs duties----Customs receipts net of refunds were
$4.5 billion for the third quarter of fiscal 1997. This is approximately $0.2 billion more than the customs duties received in the Treasury from the comparable prior year quarter.

ACCOUNT OF THE U.S. TREASURY

INTRODUCTION: Source and Availability of the
Balance in the Account of the U.S. Treasury
The Treasury’s operating cash is maintained in accounts
with the Federal Reserve banks (FRBs) and branches, as well
as in tax and loan accounts in other financial institutions. Major
information sources include the Daily Balance Wire received
from the FRBs and branches, and electronic transfers through
the Letter of Credit Payment, Fedline Payment, and Fedwire
Deposit Systems. As the FRB accounts are depleted, funds are
called in (withdrawn) from thousands of tax and loan accounts
at financial institutions throughout the country.

Note Option. The program permits Treasury to collect funds
through financial institutions and to leave the funds in Note
Option depositaries and in the financial communities in which
they arise until Treasury needs the funds for its operations. In
this way, Treasury is able to neutralize the effect of its fluctuating operations on Note Option financial institution reserves
and on the economy. Likewise, those institutions wishing to
remit the funds to the Treasury’s account at FRBs do so under
the Remittance Option.

Under authority of Public Law 95-147, Treasury implemented a program on November 2, 1978, to invest a portion of
its operating cash in obligations of depositaries maintaining
tax and loan accounts. Under the Treasury tax and loan investment program, depositary financial institutions select the manner in which they will participate. Financial institutions
wishing to retain funds deposited into their tax and loan
accounts in interest-bearing obligations participate under the

Deposits to tax and loan accounts occur as customers of
financial institutions deposit tax payments, which the financial
institutions use to purchase Government securities. In most
cases, this involves a transfer of funds from a customer’s
account to the tax and loan account in the same financial
institution. Also, Treasury can direct the FRBs to invest excess
funds in tax and loan accounts directly from the Treasury
account at the FRBs.

FEDERAL DEBT

17

INTRODUCTION: Federal Debt
Treasury securities (i.e., public debt securities) comprise
most of the Federal debt, with securities issued by other
Federal agencies accounting for the rest. Tables in this section
of the ‘‘Treasury Bulletin’’ reflect the total. Further detailed
information is published in the ‘‘Monthly Statement of the
Public Debt of the United States.’’ Likewise, information on
agency securities and on investments of Federal Government
accounts in Federal securities is published in the ‘‘Monthly
Treasury Statement of Receipts and Outlays of the United
States Government.’’
• Table FD-1 summarizes the Federal debt by listing
public debt and agency securities held by the public, including
the Federal Reserve. It also includes debt held by Federal
agencies, largely by the Social Security and other Federal
retirement trust funds. The net unamortized premium and
discount are also listed by total Federal securities, securities
held by Government accounts, and securities held by the
public. The difference between the outstanding face value of
the Federal debt and the net unamortized premium and discount is classified as the accrual amount. (For greater detail on
holdings of Federal securities by particular classes of investors,
see the ownership tables, OFS-1 and OFS-2.)
• Table FD-2 categorizes by type interest-bearing marketable and nonmarketable Treasury securities. The difference
between interest-bearing and total public debt securities reflects outstanding matured Treasury securities--that is, unredeemed securities that have matured and are no longer
accruing interest. Because the Federal Financing Bank is under
the supervision of Treasury, its securities are held by a U.S.
Government account.
• In table FD-3, nonmarketable Treasury securities held
by U.S. Government accounts are summarized by issues to
particular funds within Government. Many of the funds invest
in par value special series nonmarketables at interest rates
determined by law. Others invest in market-based special
Treasury securities whose terms mirror those of marketable
securities.
• Table FD-4 presents interest-bearing securities issued
by Government agencies. Federal agency borrowing has declined in recent years, in part because the Federal Financing
Bank has provided financing to other Federal agencies. (Federal agency borrowing from Treasury is presented in the

‘‘Monthly Treasury Statement of Receipts and Outlays of the
United States Government.’’)
• Table FD-5 illustrates the average length of marketable
interest-bearing public debt held by private investors and the
maturity distribution of that debt.
The average length hit a low of 2 years 5 months in
December 1975. The length then increased gradually until it
reached a high of 6 years, 4 months in May 1991. Since then,
the average length decreased. For example, during most of
1996 the average length was at 5 years, 3 months.
In March 1971, Congress enacted a limited exception to
the amount of bonds with rates greater than 4-1/4 percent that
could be held by the public. This permitted Treasury to offer
securities maturing in more than 7 years at current market
interest rates for the first time since 1965. In March 1976, the
definition of a bond was changed to include those securities
longer than 10 years to maturity. This exception has expanded
since 1971, authorizing Treasury to continue to issue longterm securities. The ceiling on Treasury bonds was repealed
on November 10, 1988.
The volume of privately held Treasury marketable securities by maturity class reflects the remaining period to maturity
for Treasury bills, notes, and bonds. The average length is
comprised of an average of remaining periods to maturity,
weighted by the amount of each security held by private
investors. In other words, computations of average length
exclude Government accounts and the Federal Reserve banks.
• In table FD-6, the debt ceiling is compared with the
outstanding debt subject to limitation by law. The other debt
category includes Federal debt Congress has designated as
being subject to the debt ceiling. Changes in the non-interestbearing debt shown in the last column reflect maturities of
Treasury securities on nonbusiness days, which can be redeemed on the next business day.
• Table FD-7 details Treasury holdings of securities issued by Government corporations and other agencies. Certain
Federal agencies are authorized to borrow money from the
Treasury, largely to finance direct loan programs. In addition,
agencies such as the Bonneville Power Administration are
authorized to borrow from the Treasury to finance capital
projects. Treasury, in turn, finances these loans by selling
Treasury securities to the public.

PUBLIC DEBT OPERATIONS

INTRODUCTION: Public Debt Operations
Chapter 31 of Title 31 of the United States Code allows
the Secretary of the Treasury to borrow money by issuing
Treasury securities. The Secretary determines the terms and
conditions of issue, conversion, maturity, payment, and interest rate. New issues of Treasury notes mature in 2 to 10 years.
Bonds mature in more than 10 years from the issue date. Each
marketable security is listed in the ‘‘Monthly Statement of the
Public Debt of the United States.’’ The information in this
section of the ‘‘Treasury Bulletin’’ pertains only to marketable
Treasury securities, current bills, notes, and bonds.

mature on the same Thursday as an existing 52-week bill is a
reopening of the existing 52-week bill. New issues of cash
management bills are also presented. High, low, and average
yields on accepted tenders and the dollar value of total bids are
presented, with the dollar value of awards made on both
competitive and noncompetitive basis.
Treasury accepts noncompetitive tenders of up to $1 million for bills and $5 million for notes and bonds in each auction
of securities to encourage participation of individuals and
smaller institutions.

• Table PDO-1 provides a maturity schedule of interestbearing marketable public debt securities other than regular
weekly and 52-week bills. All unmatured Treasury notes and
bonds are listed in maturity order, from earliest to latest. A
separate breakout is provided for the combined holdings of the
Government accounts and Federal Reserve banks, so that the
‘‘all other investors’’ category includes all private holdings.

• Table PDO-3 lists the results of auctions of marketable
securities, other than weekly bills, in chronological order over
the past 2 years. Included are: notes and bonds from table
PDO-1; 52-week bills from table PDO-2, and data for cash
management bills.

• Table PDO-2 presents the results of weekly auctions of
13- and 26-week bills, as well as auctions of 52-week bills,
which are held every 4 weeks. Treasury bills mature each
Thursday. New issues of 13-week bills are reopenings of
26-week bills. The 26-week bill issued every fourth week to

• Table PDO-4 indicates the total amount of marketable
securities allotted to each class of investor. The Federal Reserve banks tally into investor classes the tenders in each
auction of marketable securities other than weekly auctions of
13- and 26-week bills.

OWNERSHIP OF FEDERAL SECURITIES

47

INTRODUCTION: Ownership of Federal Securities
Federal securities presented in the following tables are
public debt securities such as savings bonds, bills, notes, and
bonds that the Treasury issues. The tables also detail debt
issued by other Federal agencies under special financing
authorities. [See the Federal debt (FD) tables for a more
complete description of the Federal debt.]
• Table OFS-1 presents Treasury marketable and nonmarketable securities and debt issued by other Federal agencies
held by Government accounts, the Federal Reserve banks, and
private investors. Social Security and Federal retirement trust
fund investments comprise much of the Government account
holdings.

The Federal Reserve banks acquire Treasury securities in
the market as a means of executing monetary policy.
• Table OFS-2 presents the estimated amount of public
debt securities held by private investors. Information is obtained from sources such as the Federal financial institution
regulatory agencies. State, local, and foreign holdings include
special issues of nonmarketable securities to municipal entities
and foreign official accounts. They also include municipal,
foreign official, and private holdings of marketable Treasury
securities. (See footnotes to the table for description of investor
categories.)

MARKET YIELDS

INTRODUCTION: Market Yields
The tables and charts in this section present yields on
Treasury marketable securities, and compare long-term yields
on Treasury securities with yields on long-term corporate and
municipal securities.
• Table MY-1 lists Treasury market bid yields at constant
maturities for bills, notes, and bonds. The Treasury yield curve
in the accompanying chart is based on current market bid
quotations on the most actively traded Treasury securities as
of 3:30 p.m. on the last business day of the calendar quarter.
The Treasury uses quotations obtained by the Federal
Reserve Bank of New York to derive the yield curve, based on
semiannual interest payments and read at constant maturity
points to develop a consistent data series. Yields on Treasury
bills are coupon equivalent yields of bank discount rates at

which Treasury bills trade in the market. The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System publishes the Treasury
constant maturity data series in its weekly H.15 press release.
• Table MY-2 shows average yields of long-term Treasury, corporate, and municipal bonds. The long-term Treasury
average yield is the 30-year constant maturity yield. The
corporate bond average yield is developed by Treasury by
calculating reoffering yields on new long-term securities maturing in at least 20 years and rated Aa by Moody’s Investors
Service. The municipal bond average yield prior to 1991 was
compiled by Treasury. Beginning with January 1991, the average yield is the ‘‘Municipal Bond Yield Average,’’ published
by Moody’s Investors Service for 20-year reoffering yields on
selected Aa-rated general obligations. See the footnotes for
further explanation.

U.S. CURRENCY AND COIN OUTSTANDING AND IN CIRCULATION

INTRODUCTION: U.S. Currency and Coin Outstanding and in Circulation
The U.S. Currency and Coin Outstanding and in Circulation (USCC) statement informs the public of the total face
value of currency and coin used as a medium of exchange that
is in circulation at the end of a given accounting month. The
statement defines the total amount of currency and coin outstanding and the portion deemed to be in circulation, and
includes some old and current rare issues that do not circulate,
or that may do so to a limited extent. Treasury includes them
in the statement because the issues were originally intended
for general circulation.

The USCC statement provides a description of the various
issues of paper money. It also gives an estimated average of
currency and coin held by each individual, using estimates of
population from the Bureau of the Census. USCC information
has been published by Treasury since 1888, and was published
separately until 1983, when it was incorporated into the
‘‘Treasury Bulletin.’’ The USCC comes from monthly reports
compiled by Treasury offices, various U.S. Mint offices, the
Federal Reserve banks, and the Federal Reserve Board.

Beginning July 1974, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) adopted a technique for valuing
the special drawing right (SDR) based on a weighted-average of exchange rates for the
currencies of selected member countries. The U.S. SDR holdings and reserve position in the
IMF also are valued on this basis beginning July 1974.
2
Treasury values its gold stock at $42.2222 per fine troy ounce and pursuant to 31 U.S.C. 5117
(b) issues gold certificates to the Federal Reserve at the same rate against all gold held.
3
Includes allocations of SDRs in the Special Drawing Account in the IMF, plus or minus
transactions in SDRs.

4

Includes holdings of Treasury and Federal Reserve System; beginning November 1978,
these are valued at current market exchange rates or, where appropriate, at such other rates
as may be agreed upon by the parties to the transactions.
5
The United States has the right to purchase foreign currencies equivalent to its reserve
position in the IMF automatically if needed. Under appropriate conditions, the United States
could purchase additional amounts related to the U.S. quota.

CAPITAL MOVEMENTS

INTRODUCTION: Capital Movements
Treasury collects information about the transference of financial assets and other portfolio capital movements between
the United States and foreigners, and has since 1935. Commercial banks and other depository institutions, bank holding companies, securities brokers and dealers, and nonbanking
enterprises in the United States file capital movement reports
with district Federal Reserve banks.
Forms and instructions are developed with the cooperation
of other Government agencies and the Federal Reserve System,
and in consultation with representatives of banks, securities
firms, and nonbanking enterprises. Copies of the reporting
forms and instructions may be obtained from the Office of
International Financial Analysis, Office of the Assistant Secretary for Economic Policy, Department of the Treasury, Washington, D.C., 20220, or from district Federal Reserve banks.
In general, information is reported opposite the country or
geographical area where the foreigner is located, as shown on
records of reporting institutions. However, information may
not always reflect the ultimate ownership of assets. Reporting
institutions are not required to go beyond addresses shown on
their records, and so may not be aware of the actual country of
domicile of the ultimate beneficiary.
Transactions with branches or agencies of foreign official
institutions, wherever located, are reported opposite the country that has sovereignty over the institutions. Transactions with
international and regional organizations are not reported opposite any country, but are accounted for in regional groupings of
such organizations. The only exception is information pertaining to the Bank for International Settlements, which is reported
opposite ‘Other Europe.’
Banks and other depository institutions, bank holding companies, International Banking Facilities (IBFs), securities brokers and dealers, and nonbanking enterprises in the United
States must file reports. These enterprises include the branches,
agencies, subsidiaries, and other affiliates in the United States
of foreign banking and nonbanking firms. Those with liabilities, claims, or securities transactions below specified exemption levels are exempt from reporting.
Banks and other depository institutions, and some brokers
and dealers, file monthly reports covering their dollar liabilities
to, and dollar claims on, foreigners in a number of countries.
Twice a year, June 30 and December 31, they also report the
same liabilities and claims items attributed to foreigners in
countries not shown separately on the monthly reports. Quarterly reports are filed for liabilities and claims denominated in
foreign currencies. The exemption level applicable to these
banking reports is $15 million.
Banks and other depository institutions, securities brokers
and dealers, and other enterprises report monthly their transactions with foreigners in long-term securities. They must report
securities transactions with foreigners if their aggregate purchases or their aggregate sales amount to at least $2 million
during the covered month.
Exporters, importers, industrial and commercial concerns,
financial institutions (other than banks, other depository institutions, and brokers), and other nonbanking enterprises must
file reports quarterly if liabilities to, or claims on, unaffiliated
foreigners amount to $10 million or more at the end of the
covered quarter.

Nonbanking enterprises also report each month their aggregate U.S. dollar denominated deposit and certificates of deposit
claims of $10 million or more on banks abroad.
The data in these tables do not cover all types of reported
capital movements between the United States and other countries. The principal exclusions are the intercompany capital
transactions of nonbanking business enterprises in the United
States with their own branches and subsidiaries abroad or with
their foreign parent companies (own foreign offices), and
capital transactions of the U.S. Government. Consolidated data
on all types of international capital transactions are published
by the Department of Commerce in its regular reports on the
United States balance of payments.
• Section I presents liabilities to foreigners reported by U.S.
banks and other depository institutions, as well as brokers and
dealers. Dollar liabilities are reported monthly; those denominated in foreign currencies are reported quarterly. Respondents
report certain of their own liabilities and a wide range of their
custody liabilities to foreigners.
• Section II presents claims on foreigners reported by U.S.
banks and other depository institutions, brokers, and dealers.
Data on banks’ claims held for their own account are collected
monthly. Information on claims held for their domestic customers as well as on foreign currency claims, is collected on a
quarterly basis only. Maturity data are reported according to
time remaining to maturity. Reporting also covers certain items
held by brokers and dealers in the United States.
• Section III contains supplementary data on dollar liabilities to, and dollar claims on, countries not listed separately on
the monthly reports submitted by banks, other depository institutions, brokers and dealers in the United States. The supplementary reports are filed semiannually as of the end of June
and December.
• Section IV shows the liabilities to, and claims on, unaffiliated foreigners of exporters, importers, industrial and commercial concerns, financial institutions (other than banks, other
depository institutions, and brokers), and other nonbanking
enterprises in the United States. Information does not include
accounts of nonbanking enterprises in the United States with
their own branches and subsidiaries abroad or with their foreign parent companies. These are reported by business enterprises to the Department of Commerce on its direct investment
forms. Data exclude claims on foreigners held through banks
in the United States.
• Section V contains information on transactions with
foreigners in long-term domestic and foreign securities as
reported by banks, brokers, and other entities in the United
States. The data cover transactions executed in the United
States for the accounts of foreigners, and transactions executed
abroad for the accounts of reporting institutions and their
domestic customers. This includes transactions in newly issued
securities as well as transactions in, and redemptions of, outstanding issues. However, the data do not include nonmarketable Treasury bonds and notes shown in table IFS-3.
The geographical breakdown of the transactions data does
not necessarily reflect the domicile of the ultimate owners of,
or the original issuers of, the securities. This is because the path
of a security is not tracked prior to its being purchased from,
or after it is sold to, a foreigner in a reportable transaction. That

CAPITAL MOVEMENTS

is, before it enters and after it departs the reporting system,
ownership of a security may be transferred between foreigners
of different countries. Such transfers may occur any number
of times and are concealed among the net figures for U.S.

transactions opposite individual countries. Hence, the geographical breakdown shows only the country of domicile of
the foreign buyers and sellers of securities in a particular round
of transactions.

UNITED STATES PORTFOLIO INVESTMENT ABROAD
AS OF DECEMBER 31, 1996
SUMMARY REPORT 1
Office of International Financial Analysis
Introduction
In 1996, the total value of U.S. portfolio claims on foreigners expanded 14.4 percent, or $303.2 billion, to $2.4 trillion.
(Table 1.) Although U.S. Government assets dipped somewhat, due mostly to a drop of $15.4 billion or 8.8 percent in
official reserve assets, the three major components of U.S.
privately held assets increased strongly.
Among individual countries, private U.S. portfolio claims
on foreigners at year-end 1996 were greatest opposite the
United Kingdom at $352.1 billion. (Table 2.) Japan and Canada followed with total claims of $255.7 billion and $195.0
billion, respectively. On a regional basis, other Europe and
Latin America and the Caribbean appeared to be the main
locations of U.S. claims. Claims reported vis-à-vis the rest of
the world, principally other Asia, were also significant.

Holdings of foreign securities
U.S. holdings of foreign securities----the largest component
of U.S. portfolio claims on foreigners----increased $219.0 billion during 1996 to an estimated value of $1.3 trillion.
U.S. net purchases of foreign bonds during the year were
substantial at $48.8 billion, but were partly offset by exchange
rate losses totaling $7.5 billion. Nevertheless, total U.S. holdings of foreign bonds were estimated to be $398.0 billion at
year-end, a record high. About 20.0 percent, or $79.2 billion,
of U.S. holdings were estimated to be Canadian bonds. Other
major holdings included bonds from Japan ($34.0 billion), the
United Kingdom ($29.6 billion), France ($28.0 billion), and
Germany ($24.5 billion). Mexico and the rest of Latin America
were a strong growth area in 1996. U.S. holdings of foreign
bonds from the region expanded 24.5 percent during the year,
up $13.6 billion to $69.1 billion.
U.S. net purchases of foreign stocks were similarly vigorous in 1996, amounting to $58.6 billion. Strong price gains in
nearly all major markets added another $118.0 billion to the
value of U.S. holdings which, at year-end, were estimated to
be $875.5 billion, an all-time high. U.S. portfolios were highly
concentrated in the United Kingdom and Japan, where holdings were estimated to be $185.4 billion and $126.4 billion,
respectively, at year-end. Additionally, U.S. investors held an
estimated $284.1 billion in stocks from other European countries, $66.5 billion in Canadian stocks, $75.7 billion in stocks
from Mexico and other Latin America, and $37.3 billion in
Hong Kong stocks.

U.S. banking claims
Total claims on foreigners on U.S. banks’ own accounts
rose for the second year in a row in 1996, expanding $60.8

billion to $667.2 billion, a new high. At year-end, U.S. banking
claims remained heavily weighted toward Latin America and
the Caribbean, principally2 Mexico and the offshore banking
centers in the Caribbean.
Driving most of the 1996 increase were U.S. banks’ dollar
claims on own foreign offices, which expanded $35.1 billion
to a record high of $342.5 billion. Most new claims were on
the United Kingdom and other Europe. Also notable were U.S.
banks’ dollar claims on non-official, nonbank foreigners, up
$21.5 billion to $122.4 billion, also a new high. Borrowers in
Latin America and the Caribbean accounted for most of this
new growth.
Other components of U.S. banks’ own claims were mixed
in 1996. Dollar claims on foreign public borrowers continued
a steep nine-year decline, falling to $22.2 billion, their lowest
level since 1980. Total claims on foreign public borrowers in
Latin America and the Caribbean and Asia fell to all-time lows,
while such claims opposite Europe increased to their highest
level since 1983. U.S. banks’ own claims on unaffiliated
foreign banks increased at year-end, particularly opposite
Europe and Latin America, yet remained within ranges observed in recent years. And U.S. banks’ foreign currency-de1

This synopsis is adapted from the Report on United States Portfolio Investment Abroad as of
December 31, 1996. The annual report is prepared by the Office of International Financial
Analysis to fulfill the requirements of the international investment and Trade in Services Survey

nominated claims fell. Nearly all of this decline occurred
opposite Asia, as foreign currency claims on the region fell
$9.2 billion, or 31.9 percent, to $19.6 billion.

U.S. nonbanking claims
Claims on foreigners of U.S. nonbanking business enterprises grew substantially in 1996. Total claims were up $38.1
billion, or 21.0 percent, to a new high of $219.5 billion.
Although $78.9 billion, or about 36.0 percent, of such claims
were reported opposite the United Kingdom, Canada, and
Japan, U.S. nonbanking claims tend to be more widely dispersed on a geographic basis than other components of private
U.S. portfolio claims.
The portion of nonbanking claims attributable to U.S. bankreported custody claims, up only marginally in 1995, expanded
$29.2 billion to $158.1 billion. This increase was widespread,
with heavy growth reported opposite Europe, Latin America
and the Caribbean, and Asia. Claims reported directly by U.S.
nonbank enterprises advanced to reverse 1995 declines, rising
$8.9 billion to a new high of $61.4 billion. Nearly two-thirds
of this expansion occurred opposite Latin American and the
Caribbean.

Includes Bahamas, Bermuda, British West Indies, Netherlands Antilles, and Panama.

U.S. banking liabilities to foreigners, excluding
liabilities represented by long-term securities, are
concentrated in international financial centers. The
chart and table show that as of September 1997, more
than half of U.S. liabilities were reported opposite
the United Kingdom, the offshore banking centers in
the Caribbean, and Japan. An additional 30.3 percent
of U.S. liabilities were held by foreigners located in
other European and Asian countries.
Total U.S. banking liabilities to foreigners
through the third quarter of the year were up $41.3
billion over yearend 1996 to $1.3 trillion, an increase
of 3.3 percent. The growth of U.S. liabilities was

widespread. In dollar terms, liabilities rose most
heavily opposite Europe (excluding the United
Kingdom) and the Caribbean banking centers, up
$17.4 billion and $24.5 billion through September,
respectively. Liabilities also increased to the United
Kingdom and Japan, up $7.4 billion combined over
yearend 1996, as well as to ‘‘all other countries,’’ up
$6.5 billion. Despite an expansion of $11.9 billion
during the third quarter, U.S. liabilities to other Asia
remained down $14.4 billion from yearend 1996,
due to a decrease of $30.6 billion during the second
quarter.

U.S. banking claims on foreigners, excluding
claims represented by long-term securities, are
highly concentrated in international financial centers. The chart and table show that as of June 1997
close to two-thirds of U.S. claims were reported
opposite the United Kingdom, other Europe and,
most notably, the offshore banking centers in the
Caribbean. An additional 19.4 percent of U.S. claims
are on foreigners located in Japan and the rest of Asia.
Total U.S. bank-reported claims on foreigners
expanded $88.9 billion through the first half of the
year to $909.6 billion, an increase of 10.8 percent

over yearend 1996. The growth in claims was widespread. Most notable were the increases opposite
Europe (excluding the United Kingdom) and ‘‘all
other countries,’’ up $36.3 billion or 25.1 percent and
$18.5 billion or 13.7 percent, respectively, through
June. Significant growth was also recorded opposite
the United Kingdom, the Caribbean banking centers,
and Asia (excluding Japan), up $35.3 billion combined through the first half of the year. Despite a
marginal increase during the second quarter, claims
on Japan at the end of June remained down $1.1
billion from yearend 1996.

Includes Bahamas, Bermuda, British West Indies, Netherlands Antilles, and Panama.

As reported by U.S. banks, brokers, and other
persons, foreigners’ net purchases of long-term U.S.
securities (i.e., U.S. Treasury and government
agency bonds and notes, and U.S. corporate bonds
and stocks) are transacted largely through international financial centers. The table presents aggregate net purchases on an annual basis for 1994
through 1996, and on a year-to-date and most recent
quarter basis for 1997. The chart and table show,
overall, a steady increase in foreigners’ net purchases of U.S. securities over the last 3 full years,
with an accelerating level of activity through the
third quarter of 1997.
Total foreign net purchases of U.S. securities
were sustained at high levels in each of the first three
quarters of 1997. Net purchases from the United

Kingdom accelerated to a record pace during the
third quarter, and accounted for 43.7 percent of total
net purchases through September. The pace of net
purchases continued to gain momentum vis-a-vis
other European countries during the third quarter,
with nearly half of net purchases reported opposite
Germany. Activity in the Caribbean banking centers
remained off sharply from 1996 levels. And net
purchases opposite Japan and other Asia, which
were strong through the first half of the year, plummeted in the third quarter. A heightened interest in
U.S. equities has apparently been driving much of
the foreign activity in 1997. Through September,
total foreign net purchases of U.S. stocks were unprecedented at $54 billion.

* Net purchases by U.S. investors equal net sales by foreigners, or gross sales
minus gross purchases of securities.

U.S. net purchases of foreign bonds and stocks
have been sustained at historically high levels since
about 1993. The long-run increase in activity in foreign
securities appears to be linked to the continuing efforts
of U.S. institutional investors, including pension funds
and investment companies, to diversify and reallocate
their portfolios. The table presents aggregate U.S. net
purchases on an annual basis for 1993 through 1996,
as well as on a year-to-date and most recent quarter
basis for 1997.
U.S. net purchases of foreign securities, which
slowed somewhat during the first half of 1997, accelerated rapidly in the third quarter to the highest rate
since the third quarter of 1993. Much of the increase

was due to a surge in net purchases of foreign bonds,
particularly opposite the United Kingdom where net
purchases amounted to $11.8 billion. Significant net
purchases were also recorded opposite Canada, the
Netherlands, Mexico, Brazil, Korea, and the Philippines, up $11.2 billion combined in the third quarter.
U.S. net purchases of foreign stocks, which were strong
in the first half of the year, remained vigorous during
the third quarter. Net purchases were most prominent
opposite the United Kingdom and Japan, where third
period activity amounted to $8.2 billion and $3.1 billion, respectively. Offsetting these increases were U.S.
net sales of foreign stocks to the Caribbean banking
centers, which totalled $2.3 billion in the third quarter.

INTRODUCTION: Foreign Currency Positions
The ‘‘Treasury Bulletin’’ publishes series on foreign currency holdings of large foreign exchange market participants.
The series provide information on positions in derivative instruments, such as foreign exchange futures and options, that
are increasingly used in establishing foreign exchange positions but were not covered in the old reports.
The information is based on reports of large foreign exchange market participants on holdings of five major foreign
currencies (Canadian dollar, German mark, Japanese yen,
Swiss franc, and pound sterling). U.S.-based businesses file a
consolidated report for their domestic and foreign subsidiaries,
branches, and agencies. U.S. subsidiaries of foreign entities
file only for themselves, not for their foreign parents. Filing is
required by law (31 U.S.C. 5315; 31 C.F.R. 128, Subpart C).
Weekly and monthly reports must be filed throughout the
calendar year by major foreign exchange market participants,
which are defined as market participants with more than $50
billion equivalent in foreign exchange contracts on the last
business day of any calendar quarter during the previous year
(end March, June, September, or December). Such contracts
include the amounts of foreign exchange spot contracts bought
and sold, foreign exchange forward contracts bought and sold,
foreign exchange futures bought and sold, and one half the
notional amount of foreign exchange options bought and sold.
Exemptions from filing the monthly report are given to banking institutions that file the Federal Financial Institution Examination Council (FFIEC) 035 report (‘‘Monthly
Consolidated Foreign Currency Report’’).

A quarterly report must be filed throughout the calendar
year by each foreign exchange market participant that had
more than $1 billion equivalent in foreign exchange contracts
on the last business day of any quarter the previous year (end
March, June, September, or December). Exemptions from
filing the quarterly report are given to major nonbank market
participants that file weekly and monthly reports, and banking
institutions that file FFIEC 035 reports.
This information is published in five sections corresponding to each of the major currencies covered by the reports.
Tables I-1 through V-1 present the foreign currency data
reported weekly by major market participants. Tables I-2
through V-2 present more detailed currency data of major
market participants, based on monthly Treasury and FFIEC
035 reports. Tables I-3 through V-3 present quarterly consolidated foreign currency data reported by large market participants and FFIEC reporters which do not file weekly reports.
Principal exchanged under cross currency interest rate
swaps is reported as part of purchases or sales of foreign
exchange. Such principal is also separately noted on monthly
and quarterly reports. The net options position, or the net
delta-equivalent value of an options position, is an estimate of
the relationship between an option’s value and an equivalent
currency hedge. The delta equivalent value is defined as the
product of the first partial derivative of an option valuation
formula (with respect to the price of the underlying currency)
multiplied by the notional principal of the contract.

INTRODUCTION: Exchange Stabilization Fund
To stabilize the exchange value of the dollar, the Exchange
Stabilization Fund (ESF) was established under the Gold Reserve Act of January 30, 1934 (31 U.S.C. 5302), which authorized establishment of a Treasury Department fund to be
operated under the exclusive control of the Secretary, with
approval of the President.
Subsequent amendment of the Gold Reserve Act modified
the original purpose somewhat to reflect termination of the
fixed exchange rate system.
Resources of the fund include dollar balances, partially
invested in U.S. Government securities, special drawing rights
(SDRs), and balances of foreign currencies. Principal sources
of income (+) or loss (-) for the fund are profits (+) or losses
(-) on SDRs and foreign exchange, as well as interest earned
on assets.

• Table ESF-1 presents the assets, liabilities, and capital
of the fund. The figures are in U.S. dollars or their equivalents
based on current exchange rates computed according to the
accrual method of accounting. The capital account represents
the original capital appropriated to the fund by Congress of $2
billion, minus a subsequent transfer of $1.8 billion to pay for
the initial U.S. quota subscription to the IMF. Gains and losses
are reflected in the cumulative net income (+) or loss (-)
account.
• Table ESF-2 shows the results of operations by quarter.
Figures are in U.S. dollars or their equivalents computed
according to the accrual method. ‘‘Profit (+) or loss (-) on
foreign exchange’’ includes realized profits or losses. ‘‘Adjustment for change in valuation of SDR holdings and allocations’’
reflects net gain or loss on revaluation of SDR holdings and
allocations for the quarter.

Beginning July 1974, the International Monetary Fund adopted a technique for valuing the
special drawing rights (SDRs) based on a weighted average of exchange rates for the
currencies of selected member countries. The U.S. SDR holdings and allocations are valued
on this basis beginning July 1974.
2
Excludes foreign exchange transactions for future and spot delivery.

Note.--Annual balance sheets for fiscal years 1934 through 1940 appeared in the 1940
‘‘Annual Report of the Secretary of the Treasury’’ and those for succeeding years appeared in
subsequent reports through 1980. Quarterly balance sheets beginning with December 31,
1938, have been published in the ‘‘Treasury Bulletin.’’ Data from inception to September 30,
1978, may be found on the statements published in the January 1979 ‘‘Treasury Bulletin.’’

INTRODUCTION
The tables and charts in this section present the most
recent data available on various trust funds administered by the
Treasury. Trust funds are moneys held by the Government in
accounts established by law or by trust agreement for specific
purposes and designated by law as being trust funds.
This report compiles data from many sources and provides
information in a consolidated manner.
The Civil Service Retirement and Disability Fund is operated by the Office of Personnel Management. The Federal
Hospital Insurance and Federal Supplementary Medical Insurance Trust Funds are under the auspices of the Department of
Health and Human Services’ Health Care Financing Administration. The Federal Old-age and Survivors Insurance and
Federal Disability Insurance Trust Funds are administered by
Social Security.

In addition, the Department of Veterans Affairs’ Veterans
Benefits Administration disburses the National Service Life
Insurance Fund. And the Department of Labor, Employment
and Training Administration is responsible for the Unemployment Trust Fund.
Data for the Railroad Retirement Trust Fund are also
included in this section. That trust fund is administered by the
Railroad Retirement Board, an independent agency.
The following tables are published in the December issue
of the ‘‘Treasury Bulletin’’ each year. Most of the data for the
tables came from the ‘‘Monthly Treasury Statement of Receipts and Outlays of the United States Government,’’ in which
monthly data are published. Estimated figures are based on the
‘‘Budget of the United States Government, Fiscal Year 1998,’’
released February 1997.

Glossary
With References to Applicable Sections and Tables
Source: Financial Management Service
Accrued discount (SBN-1, -2, -3)----Interest that accumulates
on savings bonds from the date of purchase until the date of
redemption or final maturity, whichever comes first. Series A,
B, C, D, E, EE, F, and J are discount or accrual type bonds---meaning principal and interest are paid when bonds are redeemed. Series G, H, HH, and K are current-income bonds,
and the semiannual interest paid to their holders is not included
in accrued discount.
Amounts outstanding and in circulation (USCC)----Includes all issues by the Bureau of the Mint purposely intended
as a medium of exchange. Coins sold by the Bureau of the Mint
at premium prices are excluded; however, uncirculated coin
sets sold at face value plus handling charge are included.
Average discount rate (PDO-2, -3)----In Treasury bill auctions, purchasers tender competitive bids on a discount rate
basis. The average discount rate is the weighted, or adjusted,
average of all bids accepted in the auction.
Budget authority (‘‘Federal Fiscal Operations’’)----Congress passes laws giving budget authority to Government
entities, which gives the agencies the power to spend Federal
funds. Congress can stipulate various criteria for the spending
of these funds. For example, Congress can stipulate that a given
agency must spend within a specific year, number of years, or
any time in the future.
The basic forms of budget authority are appropriations,
authority to borrow, contract authority, and authority to obligate and expend offsetting receipts and collections. The period
of time during which Congress makes funds available may be
specified as 1-year, multiple-year, or no-year. The available
amount may be classified as either definite or indefinite; a
specific amount or an unspecified amount can be made available. Authority may also be classified as current or permanent.
Permanent authority requires no current action by Congress.
Budget deficit----The total, cumulative amount by which
budget outlays (spending) exceed budget receipts (income).
Cash management bills (PDO-2)----Marketable Treasury
bills of irregular maturity lengths, sold periodically to fund
short-term cash needs of Treasury. Their sale, having higher
minimum and multiple purchase requirements than those of
other issues, is generally restricted to competitive bidders.
Competitive tenders (‘‘Treasury Financing Operations’’)----A bid to purchase a stated amount of one issue of
Treasury securities at a specified yield or discount. The bid is
accepted if it is within the range accepted in the auction. (See
Noncompetitive tenders.)
Coupon issue----The issue of bonds or notes (public debt).
Currency no longer issued (USCC)----Old and new series
gold and silver certificates, Federal Reserve notes, national
bank notes, and 1890 Series Treasury notes.
Current income bonds (‘‘U.S. Savings Bonds and
Notes’’)----Bonds paying semiannual interest to holders. Interest is not included in accrued discount.
Debt outstanding subject to limitation (FD-6)----The debt
incurred by the Treasury subject to the statutory limit set by

Congress. Until World War I, a specific amount of debt was
authorized to each separate security issue. Beginning with the
Second Liberty Loan Act of 1917, the nature of the limitation
was modified until, in 1941, it developed into an overall limit
on the outstanding Federal debt. As of September 1997, the
debt limit was $5,950,000 million; the limit may change from
year to year.
The debt subject to limitation includes most of Treasury’s
public debt except securities issued to the Federal Financing
Bank, upon which there is a limitation of $15 billion, and
certain categories of older debt (totaling approximately $595
million as of February 1991).
Discount----The interest deducted in advance when purchasing
notes or bonds. (See Accrued discount.)
Discount rate (PDO-2)----The difference between par value
and the actual purchase price paid, annualized over a 360-day
year. Because this rate is less than the actual yield (couponequivalent rate), the yield should be used in any comparison
with coupon issue securities.
Dollar coins (USCC)----Include standard silver and nonsilver
coins.
Domestic series (FD-2)----Nonmarketable, interest and noninterest-bearing securities issued periodically by Treasury to
the Resolution Funding Corporation (RFC) for investment of
funds authorized under section 21B of the Federal Home Loan
Bank Act (12 U.S.C. 1441b).
Federal intrafund transactions (‘‘Federal Fiscal Operations’’)----Intrabudgetary transactions in which payments and
receipts both occur within the same Federal fund group (Federal funds or trust funds).
Federal Reserve notes (USCC)----Issues by the U.S. Government to the public through the Federal Reserve banks and their
member banks. They represent money owed by the Government to the public. Currently, the item ‘‘Federal Reserve
notes----amounts outstanding’’ consists of new series issues.
The Federal Reserve note is the only class of currency currently
issued.
Foreign (‘‘Foreign Currency Positions,’’ IFS-2, -3)----Locations other than those included under the definition of the
United States. (See United States.)

countries other than the United States, and international and
regional organizations, wherever located. Also, refers to persons in the United States to the extent that they are known by
reporting institutions to be acting for foreigners.
Foreign official institutions (‘‘Capital Movements’’)----Includes central governments of foreign countries, including all
departments and agencies of national governments; central
banks, exchange authorities, and all fiscal agents of foreign
national governments that undertake activities similar to those

131

and consular establishments of foreign national governments;
and any international or regional organization, including subordinate and affiliate agencies, created by treaty or convention
between sovereign states.
Foreign public borrower (‘‘Capital Movements’’)----Includes foreign official institutions, as defined above, the corporations and agencies of foreign central governments,
including development banks and institutions, and other agencies that are majority-owned by the central government or its
departments; and state provincial and local governments of
foreign countries and their departments and agencies.
Foreign-targeted issue (PDO-1, -3)----Foreign-targeted issues were notes sold between October 1984 and February 1986
to foreign institutions, foreign branches of U.S. institutions,
foreign central banks or monetary authorities, or to international organizations in which the United States held membership. Sold as companion issues, they could be converted to
domestic (normal) Treasury notes with the same maturity and
interest rates. Interest was paid annually.
Fractional coins (USCC)----Coins minted in denominations
of 50, 25, and 10 cents, and minor coins (5 cents and 1 cent).
Government account series (FD-2)----Certain trust fund statutes require the Secretary of the Treasury to apply monies held
by these funds toward the issuance of nonmarketable special
securities. These securities are sold directly by Treasury to a
specific Government agency, trust fund, or account. Their rate
is based on an average of market yields on outstanding Treasury obligations, and they may be redeemed at the option of the
holder. Roughly 80 percent of these are issued to five holders:
the Federal Old-age and Survivors Insurance Trust Fund; the
civil service retirement and disability fund; the Federal Hospital Insurance Trust Fund; the military retirement fund; and the
Unemployment Trust Fund.
Interfund transactions (‘‘Federal Fiscal Operations’’)---Transactions in which payments are made from one fund group
(either Federal funds or trust funds) to a receipt account in
another group.
International Monetary Fund (‘‘Exchange Stabilization
Fund,’’ IFS-1)----(IMF) Established by the United Nations, the
IMF promotes international trade, stability of exchange, and
monetary cooperation. Members are allowed to draw from the
fund.
Intrabudgetary transactions (‘‘Federal Fiscal Operations’’)----These occur when payment and receipt both occur
within the budget, or when payment is made from off-budget
Federal entities whose budget authority and outlays are excluded from the budget totals.
Matured non-interest-bearing debt (SBN-1, -2, -3)----The
value of outstanding savings bonds and notes that have reached
final maturity and no longer earn interest. Includes all Series
A-D, F, G, J, and K bonds. Series E bonds (issued between
May 1941 and November 1965), Series EE (issued since
January 1980), Series H (issued from June 1952 through
December 1979), and savings notes issued between May 1967
and October 1970 have a final maturity of 30 years. Series HH
bonds (issued since January 1980) mature after 20 years.

Noncompetitive tenders (‘‘Treasury Financing Operations’’)----Offers by an investor to purchase Treasury securities
at the price equivalent to the weighted average discount rate or
yield of accepted competitive tenders in a Treasury auction.
Noncompetitive tenders are always accepted in full.
Off-budget Federal entities (‘‘Federal Fiscal Operations’’)----Federally owned and controlled entities whose transactions are excluded from the budget totals under provisions
of law. Their receipts, outlays, and surplus or deficit are not
included in budget receipts, outlays, or deficits. Their budget
authority is not included in totals of the budget.
Outlays (‘‘Federal Fiscal Operations’’)----Payments on obligations in the form of cash, checks, the issuance of bonds or
notes, or the maturing of interest coupons.
Own foreign offices (‘‘Capital Movements’’)----Refers to
U.S. reporting institutions’ parent organizations, branches
and/or majority-owned subsidiaries located outside the United
States.
Par value----The face value of bonds or notes, including interest.
Quarterly financing (‘‘Treasury Financing Operations’’)---- Treasury has historically offered packages of several
‘‘coupon’’ security issues on the 15th of February, May, August, and November, or on the next working day. These issues
currently consist of a 3-year note, a 10-year note, and a 30-year
bond. Treasury sometimes offers additional amounts of outstanding long-term notes or bonds, rather than selling new
security issues. (See Reopening.)
Receipts (‘‘Federal Fiscal Operations’’)----Funds collected
from selling land, capital, or services, as well as collections
from the public (budget receipts), such as taxes, fines, duties,
and fees.
Reopening (PDO-3, -4)----The offer for sale of additional
amounts of outstanding issues, rather than an entirely new
issue. A reopened issue will always have the same maturity
date, CUSIP-number, and interest rate as the original issue.
Special drawing rights (‘‘Exchange Stabilization Fund,’’
IFS-1)----International assets created by IMF that serve to
increase international liquidity and provide additional international reserves. SDRs may be purchased and sold among
eligible holders through IMF. (See IMF.)
SDR allocations are the counterpart to SDRs issued by IMF
based on members’ quotas in IMF. Although shown in exchange stabilization fund (ESF) statements as liabilities, they
must be redeemed by ESF only in the event of liquidation of,
or U.S. withdrawal from, the SDR department of IMF or
cancellation of SDRs.
SDR certificates are issued to the Federal Reserve System
against SDRs when SDRs are legalized as money. Proceeds of
monetization are deposited into an ESF account at the Federal
Reserve Bank of New York.
Spot (‘‘Foreign Currency Positions’’)----Due for receipt or
delivery within 2 workdays.
State and local government series (FD-2)----(SLUGs) Special nonmarketable certificates, notes, and bonds offered to

Glossary
comply with IRS arbitrage provisions. SLUGs are offered in
both time deposit and demand deposit forms. Time deposit
certificates have maturities of up to 1 year. Notes mature in 1
to 10 years and bonds mature in more than 10 years. Demand
deposit securities are 1-day certificates rolled over with a rate
adjustment daily.
Statutory debt limit (FD-6)----By Act of Congress there is a
limit, either temporary or permanent, on the amount of public
debt that may be outstanding. When this limit is reached,
Treasury may not sell new debt issues until Congress increases
or extends the limit. For a detailed listing of changes in the
limit since 1941, see the Budget of the United States Government. (See debt outstanding subject to limitation.)
STRIPS (PDO-1, -3)----Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal Securities. Long-term notes and bonds may
be divided into principal and interest-paying components,
which may be transferred and sold in amounts as small as

$1,000. STRIPS are sold at auction at a minimum par amount,
varying for each issue. The amount is an arithmetic function
of the issue’s interest rate.
Treasury bills----The shortest term Federal security (maturity
dates normally varying from 3 to 12 months), they are sold at
a discount.
Trust fund transaction (‘‘Federal Fiscal Operations’’)----An
intra-budgetary transaction in which both payments and receipts occur within the same trust fund group.
