Profile of the Economy
[Source: Office of Macroeconomic Analysis]
As of May 18, 2009

Introduction
U.S. economic conditions deteriorated significantly
during the latter half of 2008, and in early December 2008
the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER)
determined that the economy had been in recession since
December 2007. The December 2007 business cycle peak
marked the end of a 73-month expansion that began in
November 2001. The previous expansion, which began in
March 1991 and peaked in March 2001, had lasted 120
months. Economic conditions, particularly in labor markets,
have continued to deteriorate in 2009, although very recently
there have been tentative signs that the pace of deterioration
is slowing.
Headline inflation, which peaked in July 2008 on the
back of rising energy and other commodity prices, retreated
sharply during the latter half of last year, and most recently,
the headline consumer price level declined. Core inflation (a
measure excluding food and energy) has remained relatively
contained, falling to the lower end of recent ranges in April.
Conditions in housing and financial markets deteriorated
through most of 2008 but in the first few months of this year,
have begun to show signs of limited improvement. Stock
market indexes dropped significantly in 2008 but have
trended higher since early March. Most economists see some
growth in the second half of 2009, boosted by the American
Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009.

Growth
Growth in the U.S. economy contracted in the final two
quarters of 2008, and fell 0.8 percent over the whole year,
the first four-quarter decline since 1991. In the third quarter
of 2008, real gross domestic product (GDP) fell by 0.5
percent at an annual rate, mainly due to a drop in consumer
spending, and in the fourth quarter, GDP plunged 6.3
percent–the largest quarterly decline since 1982. During the
first quarter of 2009, real GDP fell another 6.1 percent,
reflecting steep declines in business and residential
investment (the latter for the 13th straight quarter) as well as
a sharp drop in inventory investment. Although government
spending also fell, consumer spending and net exports both
rose.
Growth of consumer spending–which accounts for about
70 percent of GDP–began to slow in the spring of 2007.
Over 2008, consumption fell 1.3 percent, the largest fourquarter drop since 1974. Personal consumption expenditures
rose 2.2 percent in the first quarter of 2009, however,
recovering from the fourth quarter’s 4.3 percent drop.

Residential investment–mostly residential homebuildingaccounts for only about 3-1/2 percent of GDP, but the
ongoing decline in this sector has been a significant drag on
real GDP growth since early 2006. In the first quarter of
2009, residential investment plunged 38.0 percent, the 13th
straight quarterly decline and the largest since the housing
correction began 3 years ago. Residential investment
subtracted 1.4 percentage points from real GDP growth, a bit
more than the 0.9 percentage point average reduction during
the previous 12 quarters. Despite the first quarter’s
particularly steep decline, there have been some modest
signs of stabilization. Single-family starts have been roughly
stable for the past 3 months, and in both February and
March, exceeded permits. However, sales of new and
existing single-family homes declined in March. The
inventory of unsold homes continued to shrink in March but
remained at a historically high level relative to the current
sales pace.
House prices continued to fall on a year-over-year basis,
but one measure has registered monthly gains recently.
According to the Federal Housing Financing Authority
(FHFA), prices for purchased homes rose by 0.7 percent in
February, extending a 1.0 percent increase in January. This
measure has not risen for 2 straight months since early 2007.
Even so, the FHFA home price index was 6.5 percent lower
than a year ago. Other measures, such as the S&P/CaseShiller indexes, indicate that home prices continue to fall in
most major U.S. cities. The Case-Shiller 20-city index is
down 18.6 percent over the year through February, and is 31
percent below its mid-2006 peak.

PROFILE OF THE ECONOMY

Business activity outside of homebuilding slowed in
2008 and in the first quarter of 2009. Nonresidential fixed
investment–about 10 percent of GDP–declined by 5.2
percent in 2008. After declining by 22.8 percent in the final
quarter of 2008, business investment plunged by 37.9
percent at an annual rate in the first quarter–the largest
decline on record. Outlays for equipment and software
tumbled by 33.8 percent, the most since the late 1950s, while
spending on structures fell by a record 44.2 percent.
Altogether, the drop in business investment subtracted 4.7
percentage points from real GDP growth in the first quarter.
Export growth had been a key driver of growth in 2007
and most of 2008, but in the final quarter of 2008, the
contribution declined significantly. Exports account for
about 12 percent of GDP, while imports, which are
subtracted from GDP, account for about 17 percent. Real
exports fell 30 percent in the first quarter of 2009, year-overyear, after declining about 24 percent in the fourth quarter of
2008–a sharp contrast with increases averaging nearly 7
percent in the first three quarters of last year. Real imports
declined 34 percent in the first quarter of 2009, the sixth
consecutive quarterly decline and the largest since early
1975. As a result, net exports contributed 2.0 percentage
points to first quarter growth in real GDP, in line with the
boosts of roughly 1 to 3 percent in the first three quarters of
2009.
Public sector purchases–which account for roughly 20
percent of GDP–fell 3.9 percent at an annual rate in the first
quarter, subtracting 2.1 percentage points from real GDP
growth and constituting the first decline in government
purchases since the final quarter of 2005. Federal spending
declined 4.0 percent in the first quarter, a sharp contrast with
the 8.3 percent average increase in the previous four
quarters. State and local government finances deteriorated

June 2009

sharply, with expenditures plunging 6.4 percent in the first
quarter of 2009, following average increases of 9 percent in
the previous four quarters.

Labor Markets
Labor market conditions deteriorated throughout 2008
and the deterioration worsened in early 2009. Since the
recession began in December 2007, a total of 5.7 million
jobs have been lost through April, including over 2.7 million
jobs during the first 4 months of this year alone. On a
percentage basis, the 16-month decline is the largest since
1950. Nonfarm payrolls fell by an average of 158,000 per
month during the first three quarters of 2008, then dropped
by an average of 553,000 per month in the final quarter and
by an average of more than 700,000 per month during the
first quarter of 2009. Payroll employment fell by 539,000 in
April 2009. The unemployment rate has trended higher, with
particularly steep increases over the past few months:
unemployment jumped to 8.9 percent in April 2009, the
highest rate since September 1983, and was 4.5 percentage
points above the March 2007 low of 4.4 percent. A measure
of unemployment that includes workers who are
underemployed and those who are only marginally attached
to the labor force rose to 15.8 percent in April 2009–up from
8.7 percent in December 2007, and a record high for this
indicator, which dates to 1994.
Job losses have been spread broadly across most sectors.
Since the start of the recession, manufacturing payrolls have
declined by 1.6 million, and construction payrolls have
declined by 1.2 million. However, a few sectors have
continued to see job growth, including health care and
education, which together added nearly 590,000 jobs to
payrolls between December 2007 and April 2009.

Inflation
Rising food prices and the energy price surge through the
middle of last year boosted headline inflation, which peaked
at 5.6 percent in the 12 months through July 2008 and has
since retreated sharply, largely due to the reversal in the
energy price run-up but also to the significant slowing in
consumer and business spending. Headline consumer prices
fell 0.7 percent in the year ending April 2009, plummeting
from the 3.9 percent year-earlier pace and representing the
second consecutive 12-month decline. Prior to March, it had
been over 50 years since a 12-month decline in the CPI had
been recorded. For the 3 months ending in April 2009,
headline consumer prices were up at an annual rate of 0.9
percent. Core consumer prices (excluding food and energy)
rose by 1.9 in the year through April 2009, well below the
year-earlier pace of 2.3 percent and still close to 2004 lows.
In the 3 months ending in April 2009, core prices increased
2.5 percent.
Energy prices reached record highs in mid-summer 2008,
but have fallen sharply since then. The retail price of regular
gasoline–which hit a record of $4.11 per gallon in early July
2008–stood at $2.24 per gallon in the week ended May 11–
roughly 40 percent lower than a year ago. The front-month
futures price for West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil
traded to a record $147 per barrel in mid-July 2008, but has
since dropped by about $90 to roughly $58 per barrel in midMay. Compared with one year ago, oil prices are now about
$50 per barrel lower.

Food prices began rising much more rapidly in early
2007 and continued to accelerate in 2008, remaining above
the overall inflation rate. Most recently, however, food
prices edged down 0.1 percent in February as well as March
and fell 0.2 percent in April. Consumer food prices rose by
3.3 percent in the 12 months through April, slower than the
5.1 percent pace of a year earlier and the slowest rate of
increase since February 2007.

PROFILE OF THE ECONOMY

Federal Budget
The federal budget deficit widened to $459 billion in
fiscal year 2008 (3.2 percent of GDP), following 3 years of
improvement that had trimmed the deficit to $162 billion
(1.2 percent of GDP) in fiscal year 2007. Outlays grew by
9.3 percent in fiscal year 2008 compared with fiscal year
2007, and included stimulus payments associated with the
Economic Stimulus Act of 2008. Weak economic growth
weighed on receipts, which fell by 1.7 percent.
In fiscal year 2009, the budget deficit is projected to rise
to $1.75 trillion (12.3 percent of GDP). Expenditures are
expected to grow by 32 percent, partly reflecting the
Troubled Assets Relief Program (TARP) outlays and
spending associated with the stimulus package enacted in
mid-February. Receipts are projected to fall by 13 percent,
due in part to falling employment and income and declining
asset values. The deficit will narrow in subsequent years,
averaging 3.1 percent of GDP from fiscal year 2012 to fiscal
year 2019.

Economic Policy
Key policy actions taken during the first quarter are
setting the stage for recovery in the second half of the year.
The ARRA puts $787 billion toward stimulating domestic
demand, and is expected to create or save an estimated 3.5
million jobs in a range of industries from clean energy to
health care. By the end of 2010, the ARRA is expected to
raise GDP by more than 3 percent.
In addition to the ARRA, the Treasury Department
recently introduced several new initiatives to stabilize and
strengthen our financial system under the umbrella of the
Financial Stability Plan (FSP). The FSP includes the Capital
Assistance Program (CAP), which is designed to ensure that
major financial institutions have adequate capital to lend
even in a worse-than-expected economic environment. The
Public Private Investment Program (PPIP) will use private
and government capital to purchase legacy assets in order to
help jump-start the market for private real-estate-related
assets that have been a core factor in the current financial
crisis. In response to falling home prices, the Administration
introduced the Making Home Affordable Plan to support
lower mortgage rates and help millions of homeowners
refinance and avoid foreclosure. Finally, as a mechanism to
unlock frozen credit markets, the Consumer and Business
Lending Initiative was created to restart activity in the
secondary markets for securitized loans, lower borrowing
costs, and restore the flow of credit. Together these efforts
will help lay the foundations necessary for economic
recovery and clear the credit conduits to support future
growth.

Financial Markets
Financial markets came under unprecedented stress last
fall, but a wide range of measures have been taken as part of
the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act (EESA) of 2008,

June 2009

enacted in early October, as well as the ARRA. Credit
market conditions have since improved, although some
indicators still suggest that several important sectors remain
challenged.
Partly in response to rising financial market stress, as
well as, signs of more slowing in the broader economy, the
Federal Reserve began easing monetary policy in August
2007, and has since cut the rate to a range of 0 percent to
0.25 percent set at the December 2008 Federal Open Market
Committee (FOMC) meeting, which brought the target to its
lowest level in history. The target range was maintained at
the FOMC’s most recent meeting in late April, when the
Committee observed some slowing in the pace of economic
contraction but also downside risks to inflation. The Federal
Reserve has greatly expanded its tools to increase liquidity
in credit markets and ease lending terms to sectors that need
a temporary injection. These include a variety of facilities
and funds directed at specific financial markets, including
commercial paper and money market funds. Although these
facilities were set to expire this spring, the Federal Reserve
extended the programs through October 30, 2009. The
expiration date of the Term Asset-Backed Securities Loan
Facility (TALF) remains December 31, 2009, and other
liquidity facilities, such as the Term Auction Facility (TAF)
do not have a fixed expiration date. At the April meeting, the
FOMC clarified that it will increase purchases of agency
mortgage-backed securities by up to $1.25 trillion by the end
of 2009, and will purchase $300 billion in longer-term
Treasury securities by autumn.
Equity market indexes fell very sharply last year, and
volatility rose to record levels. The Standard & Poor’s
(S&P) 500 index declined 38.5 percent last year, compared
with a 3.5 percent gain in 2007. The loss was the largest
since 1931, when an earlier version of the index (containing
only 90 stocks) dropped 47 percent. In early May, however,
the S&P was about flat on the year, and since a 12-year low
on March 9, the index has gained 34.5 percent. The S&P
stock market volatility index (VIX), often used as a measure
of financial market uncertainty, surged to an all-time high of
80 percent in late October, after hovering in a range of 20 to
30 percent for most of 2008. The VIX has since retreated to
about 35 percent as of early May.
Long-term Treasury interest rates have been buffeted by
a variety of factors, including flight-to-quality flows in
response to financial market pressures, as well as, concerns
about the increase in supply that will be necessary to fund
the Treasury’s emergency support programs. After trading
between 3.5 percent and 4.5 percent for most of 2008, the
yield dropped off sharply starting in mid-November,
reaching 2.1 percent in late December. Since then, the 10year note yield has trended higher, reaching 3.2 percent as of
early May. The 3-month Treasury bill yield, by contrast,
generally trended lower throughout 2008 under the relatively
steady influence of safe-haven demand for short-term liquid
assets. The yield reached an all-time low of slightly above
zero by the end of December, but has risen since then to

about 0.2 percent as of early May. The 2-year to 10-year
Treasury yield spread, one measure of the steepness of the
yield curve, has widened noticeably since mid-2007. A
steepening yield curve may suggest rising uncertainty about
long-term prospects.
Key interest rates on private securities have risen sharply
relative to Treasury rates, reflecting an increase in financial
risk and concerns by financial market participants about
short-term liquidity difficulties facing a number of
institutions. The spread between the 3-month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) and the 3-month Treasury bill
rate (the TED spread, a measure of inter-bank liquidity and
credit risk) had averaged less than 50 basis points before the
crisis began to worsen in August 2007 rose to an all-time
high of nearly 460 basis points in early October 2008.
Improvements in short-term credit have narrowed the spread
to about 85 basis points in early May. The spread between

the Baa corporate bond yield and the 10-year Treasury yield

financial market turmoil emerged. It peaked at nearly 620
basis points last December and has narrowed since then to
about 500 basis points in early May–still very high by
historical standards.
Rates for conforming mortgages have trended lower in
recent months, but jumbo mortgage rates have continued to
rise. The interest rate for a 30-year conforming fixed-rate
mortgage has been trending lower since October of last year,
and had fallen to about 4.8 percent as of late April. The
jumbo-conforming spread had widened to 160 basis points
by the end of last year, well up from the more typical 20 to
25 basis point spread seen prior to the onset of the housing
and credit market problems. This spread has widened again
to about 150 basis points as of early May.

Foreign Trade and Exchange Rates
Although the U.S. trade balance (which measures trade
in goods and services) and current account (which also
includes investment income flows and unilateral transfers)
remain in deficit, both deficits have narrowed appreciably in
recent years, largely due to an improvement in the trade
balance. The merchandise trade deficit reached $838 billion
in 2006, but declined to $819 billion in 2007, and was $821
billion in 2008. Last year’s leveling off mainly reflected the
lower value–and to a small extent, lower volume–of oil
imports in the latter half of the year. The current account
balance has been in deficit almost continuously since the
early 1980s, and in 2006, reached a record $788 billion,
equivalent to 6.0 percent of GDP. In 2007, the deficit
narrowed to $731 billion, or 5.3 percent of GDP, and in
2008, the current account narrowed further to $673 billion,
equivalent to 4.7 percent of GDP.

June 2009

The value of the U.S. dollar compared with the
currencies of seven major trading partners (the euro area
countries, Japan, Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia,
Sweden, and Switzerland) has depreciated significantly from
its peak in February 2002, but most recently, has begun to
stabilize. Between February 2002 and January 2009, the
exchange value of the dollar compared to an index of these
currencies fell by about 15 percent. Between April 2007 and
April 2009, however, the dollar appreciated by 4.0 percent
against these currencies. Over the longer timeframe, the
dollar depreciated by 26 percent against the yen, and by 34
percent against the euro, but over the past 2 years, the dollar
has depreciated by about 17 percent against the yen and has
appreciated by roughly 2.5 percent against the euro. The
dollar has also appreciated against an index of currencies of
19 other important trading partners (including China, India,
and Mexico). Between February 2002 and January 2009, the
dollar appreciated by about 0.5 percent against this basket of
currencies, and over the past 2 years, firmed by nearly 5.5
percent.

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 off-budget 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 an 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 that 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 offbudget 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 off-budget 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 United States Code 900922)] included off-budget 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.

FEDERAL FISCAL OPERATIONS

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 FRBs. 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 “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 on- and off-budget
receipts by source and outlays by function as reported to
each major fund group classification for the current fiscal
year to date and prior fiscal year to date.
• Table FFO-5 summarizes internal revenue receipts
by states and by type of tax. Amounts reported are
collections made in a fiscal year. They span several tax
liability years because they consist of prepayments
(estimated tax payments and taxes withheld by employers
for individual income and Social Security taxes), payments
made with tax returns and subsequent payments made after
tax returns are due or are filed (that is, payments with
delinquent returns or on delinquent accounts).
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
district where such a corporation reported its taxes from a
principal office rather than other districts where income was
earned or where individual income and Social Security taxes
were withheld. In addition, an individual may reside in one
district and work in another.
• Table FFO-6 includes customs collection of duties,
taxes, and fees by districts and ports.

Second-Quarter Receipts
The following capsule analysis of budget
receipts, by source, for the second quarter of fiscal
year 2009 supplements fiscal data reported in the
March 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, net of refunds, were $174.4 billion for the second
quarter of fiscal year 2009. This is a decrease of $55.5
billion over the comparable prior year quarter. Withheld
receipts decreased by $30.6 billion and non-withheld
receipts decreased by $12.6 billion during this period.
Refunds increased by $12.3 billion over the comparable
fiscal year 2008 quarter. There was a decrease of $1.4 billion
in accounting adjustments between individual income tax
receipts and the Social Security and Medicare trust funds
over the comparable quarter in fiscal year 2008.
Corporate income taxes—Net corporate income tax
receipts were $5.9 billion for the second quarter of fiscal
year 2009. This is a decrease of $31.1 billion compared to

June 2009

the prior year second quarter. The $31.1 billion change is
comprised of a decrease of $16.8 billion in estimated and
final payments, and an increase of $14.2 billion in corporate
refunds.
Employment taxes and contributions—Employment
taxes and contributions receipts for the second quarter of
fiscal year 2009 were $224.2 billion, an increase of $0.1
billion over the comparable prior year quarter. Receipts to
the Federal Old-Age and Survivors Insurance, Federal
Disability Insurance, and Federal Hospital Insurance trust
funds changed by $0.9 billion, $0.2 billion, and -$1.0 billion
respectively. There was a $2.0 billion accounting adjustment
for prior years’ employment tax liabilities made in the
second quarter of fiscal year 2009, while there was a $0.6
billion adjustment in the second quarter of fiscal year 2008.
Unemployment insurance—Unemployment insurance
receipts, net of refunds, for the second quarter of fiscal year
2009 were $4.8 billion, a decrease of $0.6 billion over the
comparable quarter of fiscal year 2008. Net State taxes
deposited in the U.S. Treasury decreased by $0.5 billion to
$3.6 billion. Net Federal Unemployment Tax Act taxes
decreased by $0.1 billion to $1.2 billion.

Contributions for other insurance and retirement—
Contributions for other retirement were $1.0 billion for the
second quarter of fiscal year 2009. This was a negligible
change from the comparable quarter of fiscal year 2008.
Excise taxes—Net excise tax receipts for the second
quarter of fiscal year 2009 were $14.3 billion, a decrease of
$1.2 billion over the comparable prior year quarter. Total
excise tax refunds for the quarter were $0.8 billion, an
increase of $0.1 billion over the comparable prior year
quarter.
Estate and gift taxes—Net estate and gift tax receipts
were $5.5 billion for the second quarter of fiscal year 2009.

These receipts represent a decrease of $1.0 billion over the
same quarter in fiscal year 2008.
Customs duties—Customs duties net of refunds were
$5.3 billion for the second quarter of fiscal year 2009. This
is a decrease of $1.2 billion over the comparable prior year
quarter.
Miscellaneous receipts—Net miscellaneous receipts
for the second quarter of fiscal year 2009 were $7.0 billion, a
decrease of $6.8 billion over the comparable prior year
quarter. This change is due in part to deposits of earnings by
Federal Reserve banks decreasing by $7.8 billion.

INTRODUCTION: Source and Availability of the
Balance in the Account of the U.S. Treasury
The Department of the Treasury’s (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 FRBs, Treasury Regional Financial Centers,
Internal Revenue Service Centers, Bureau of the Public
Debt, and various electronic 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.
Under authority of Public Law 95-147 (codified at 31
United States Code 323), 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 (TT&L)
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 can
participate. The program permits Treasury to collect funds
through financial institutions and to leave the funds in TT&L
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 TT&L financial institution reserves
and on the economy. Likewise, those institutions wishing to
remit the funds to the Treasury account at FRBs do so as
collector depositaries.
Deposits to tax and loan accounts occur as customers of
financial institutions deposit tax payments that 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.

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.”
Treasury’s Financial Management Service (FMS)
compiles data in the “Treasury Bulletin” tables FD-2 and
FD-6 from the “Monthly Statement of the Public Debt of the
United States.”
• 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 also are 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, that is, marketable
and nonmarketable, the total public debt securities
outstanding that are held by the public.
• 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 marketbased 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.
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 long-term 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 of 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 FRBs.
• 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.
• 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.

INTRODUCTION: Public Debt Operations
Chapter 31 of Title 31 of the United States Code allows
the Secretary of 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 outstanding 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.
• Table PDO-1 presents the results of weekly auctions
of 4-, 13-, and 26-week bills. Treasury bills mature each
Thursday. Issues of 4- and 13-week bills are reopenings of
26-week bills. High 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 bases.
To encourage the participation of individuals and smaller
institutions, Treasury accepts noncompetitive tenders of up to
$5 million for bills and $5 million for notes and bonds in each
auction of securities.
• Table PDO-2 lists the results of auctions of
marketable securities, other than weekly bills, in

chronological order over the past 2 years. Issues of cash
management bills also are presented.
Note: Additional information, including maturity
schedules of interest-bearing marketable public debt securities
other than regular weekly and 52-week Treasury bills
outstanding, can now be found on the Bureau of Public Debt’s
website at http://www.treasurydirect.gov/govt/ reports/pd/pd_
pdotables_downloadable_files.htm.
Note: On April 30, 2008, Treasury announced the
reintroduction of the 52-week bill. The first auction of this
security took place on June 3, 2008.
Note: Cash managements bills that are identified below
are issued as part of the Supplementary Financing Program
(SFP). For more details about the SFP, visit www.treasury.gov/
press/releases/hp1144.htm or call 202-622-2960.
Note: On February 4, 2009, Treasury announced the

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.]
Effective January 1, 2001, Treasury’s Bureau of the
Public Debt revised formats, titles, and column headings in
the “Monthly Statement of the Public Debt of the United
States,” Table I: Summary of Treasury Securities
Outstanding and Table II: Statutory Debt Limit. These
changes should reduce confusion and bring the publication
more in line with the public’s use of terms.
Treasury’s Financial Management Service (FMS)
compiles data in the “Treasury Bulletin” table OFS-1 from
the “Monthly Statement of the Public Debt of the United
States.” Effective June 2001, FMS revised procedures and
categories in this table to agree with the Bureau of the Public
Debt’s publication changes.

• Table OFS-1 presents Treasury marketable and
nonmarketable securities and debt issued by other Federal
agencies held by Government accounts, the FRBs, and
private investors. Social Security and Federal retirement
trust fund investments comprise much of the Government
account holdings.
The FRBs acquire Treasury securities in the market as a
means of executing monetary policy.
• Table OFS-2 presents the estimated ownership of
U.S. Treasury securities. Information is primarily obtained
from the Federal Reserve Board of Governors Flow of Funds
data, Table L209. 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.)

INTRODUCTION: Market Yields
The table in this section presents yields on Treasury
marketable securities for maturities ranging from 1 month to
30 years.
Table MY-1 lists Treasury market bid yields at constant
maturities for bills, notes, and bonds. These Constant
Maturity Treasury rates (CMTs) are interpolated from the
Treasury yield curve and published daily at Treasury’s
Domestic Finance web site, www.ustreas.gov/offices/domesticfinance/debt-management/interest-rate/yield.shtml. The
yield curve is fitted daily using a hermite cubic spline. For
inputs, Treasury primarily uses the bid yields of the on-therun securities (most recently auctioned Treasury securities in
all maturity tranches that Treasury currently auctions) as

quoted in the secondary bond market as of approximately
3:30 p.m. each trading day. CMT yields are based on
semiannual interest payments and are read at constant
maturity points to develop a consistent data series.
The quotations used by Treasury to calculate the bid
yields and fit the yield curve are obtained by the Federal
Reserve Bank of New York. The Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System also publishes the Treasury constant
maturity data series in its weekly Statistical Release H.15.
Treasury discontinued the 30-year constant maturity
yield during the time period February 18, 2002, through
February 8, 2006. Thus, 30-year yields for that time frame
are not available.

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. It 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, U.S.
Mint offices, the Federal Reserve banks (FRBs), 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 United
States Code 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. Excludes
outstanding reciprocal currency swaps with the foreign central banks. At end-April
2009 swaps outstanding were $249.302 billion: $130.1 billion with the European
Central Bank, $11.651 billion with the Swiss National Bank, $13.488 billion with the
Bank of England, $39.810 billion with the Bank of Japan, $3.605 billion with the
Federal Reserve Bank of Australia, $23 billion with the Bank of Sweden, $5.425 billion
with the National Bank of Denmark, $5.0 billion with the Bank of Norway, $3.221
billion with the Bank of Mexico and $14 billion with the Bank of Korea.
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.

INTRODUCTION: Capital Movements
Background

Basic definitions

Data relating to U.S. international transactions in
financial instruments and to other portfolio capital
movements between the United States and foreign countries
have been collected in some form since 1935. This
information is necessary for compiling the U.S. balance of
payments accounts, for calculating the U.S. international
investment position, and for use in formulating U.S.
international financial and monetary policies.
From the beginning, reporting under the Treasury data
collection program has been mandatory. Under the current
Treasury International Capital (TIC) reporting system, an
assortment of monthly and quarterly reports are filed with
district Federal Reserve banks by commercial banks,
securities dealers, other financial institutions, and
nonbanking enterprises in the United States. These data are
centrally processed and maintained at the Federal Reserve
Bank of New York, which, along with the district banks, acts
as fiscal agent for Treasury. Beginning in late 1998, the
Federal Reserve Board also undertakes services on behalf of
Treasury in support of the TIC data collection system. The
TIC reports of individual respondents are treated as
confidential, and access to the respondent level data is
strictly limited to specific staff of Treasury and the Federal
Reserve System.
Data derived from Treasury reports are published in the
Capital Movements section of this quarterly Treasury Bulletin
and are posted monthly on the TIC website,
http://www.ustreas.gov/tic. (See NOTE at the end of the
INTRODUCTION
text
for
additional
website
information.)TIC data aggregates are also published in the
Federal Reserve Bulletin and are used in the U.S. international
transactions and investment position compilations published
by the Department of Commerce in the Survey of Current
Business.
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.
Requests for public comments on proposed changes are
published in the Federal Register, and any further
modifications are based on the comments received. The most
recent revisions to selected reporting forms and instructions
were effective June 30, 2006. The reporting forms and
instructions may be downloaded from the TIC website.
Copies of the reporting forms and instructions also may be
obtained from the Global Economics Group, Office of the
Assistant Secretary for International Affairs, Treasury,
Washington, D.C. 20220; the International Finance Division,
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System,
Washington, D.C. 20551; or district Federal Reserve banks.

The term “foreigner” as used in TIC reporting covers all
institutions and individuals resident outside the United
States, including: U.S. citizens domiciled abroad; the foreign
branches, subsidiaries and offices of U.S. banks and business
concerns; the central governments, central banks, and other
official institutions of foreign countries, wherever located;
and international and regional organizations, wherever
located. The term “foreigner” also includes persons in the
United States to the extent that they are known by reporting
institutions to be acting on behalf of foreigners.
In general, information is reported opposite the country or
geographical area where the foreigner is located, as shown on
records of reporting institutions. This information may not
always reflect the ultimate ownership of assets. Reporting
institutions are not required to go beyond addresses shown on
their records and 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 single country, but are accounted for in regional
groupings of such organizations. Effective beginning with
data for June 2006, information pertaining to the Bank for
International Settlements is now included with data
forinternational organizations, and information for the
European Central Bank is distributed across the individual
euro-area countries. For prior dates, information for these
organizations is included in “Other Europe”.
“Short-term” refers to obligations payable on demand or
having an original maturity of one year or less. “Long-term”
refers to obligations having an original maturity of more
than one year and includes securities having no maturity.

June 2009

Reporting coverage
TIC reports are required from banks and other depository
institutions, bank/financial holding companies (BHCs/FHCs),
securities brokers and dealers, and nonbanking concerns in
the United States, including the branches, agencies,
subsidiaries, and other affiliates in the United States of
foreign banking and nonbanking firms. Institutions with total
reportable liabilities, claims, or securities transactions below
specified reporting thresholds are exempt from reporting.
Beginning in February 2003, substantial revisions to the
coverage and formats of the TIC B-series and C-series forms
were introduced. The reasons for the changes were to
comply with new and expanded international standards for
reporting data on portfolio investment; to reduce reporting
burden; to clarify reporting concepts and instructions; and to
improve the quality of the series by closing known gaps in
the data.

CAPITAL MOVEMENTS

Banks, other depository institutions, and securities brokers
and dealers file monthly B-series reports covering their dollar
liabilities to and dollar claims on foreigners in a number of
countries. Quarterly reports are filed for liabilities and claims
denominated in foreign currencies and for claims on
foreigners held for respondents’ domestic customers. All
positions are exclusive of long-term securities. Beginning
January 2001, the exemption level applicable to the banking
reports was raised from $15 million to $50 million. This
exemption level is also subject to the provision that reportable
amounts for any one country do not exceed $25 million.
Banks and other depository institutions, securities
brokers and dealers, and other entities report their
transactions with foreigners by country in long-term
securities on monthly Form S. Respondents must report
securities transactions with foreigners if their aggregate
purchases or their aggregate sales amount to at least $50
million during the covered month.
TIC Form D is filed quarterly by all U.S. resident banks,
securities dealers, and other firms with worldwide holding of
derivatives in their own and in their customers’ accounts
exceeding $100 billion in notional value. Data from this
information collection was first released on May 15, 2007,
with data on holdings beginning from end-December 2005,
and data on net settlements beginning from the first quarter
of 2006.
Quarterly reports are also filed by exporters, importers,
industrial and commercial concerns, financial institutions
(other than banks, other depository institutions, and
securities firms), and other nonbanking enterprises on their
liabilities and claims positions with unaffiliated foreigners.
Separate reports are filed for financial balances and for
commercial balances. Effective for reports filed as of March
31, 2003, the threshold applicable to Form CQ-1 for
reporting financial liabilities to, and claims on, foreigners is
$50 million, up from $10 million. At the same time, the
reporting threshold for Form CQ-2, which covers
commercial liabilities and claims positions with foreigners,
was raised from $10 million to $25 million.
Effective with the reports filed for June 2006, the country
coverage of the monthly TIC forms was expanded
significantly and the semiannual reports, which covered the
smaller market economies, were discontinued. Country
coverage was also expanded for the quarterly banking forms,
the Form S, the Form D, and the Forms CQ-1 and CQ-2,
effective with reports filed for June 2006.
The data in these tables do not cover all types of reported
capital movements between the United States and other
countries. Except as noted in Section IV in “Description of
statistics” below, 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

51

capital transactions are published by the Department of
Commerce in its regular reports on the U.S. balance of
payments.

Description of statistics
Data collected on the TIC forms are published in the
“Capital Movements” tables in four sections. Each section
contains all the data relevant to the same statistical series,
with tables showing time series by type and country, and
detailed breakdowns of the latest available data. The
expansion of the country coverage on the standard report
forms allows for publication of additional country detail for
data beginning as of June 2006. As a result, the former
Capital Movements Section III, which listed bank-reported
claims and liabilities of selected countries from the
semiannual reports, has been discontinued.
• Section I covers liabilities to foreigners reported by
banks, other depository institutions, and securities brokers
and dealers in the United States. BHCs/FHCs also report for
all domestic nonbank, non-securities firm affiliates, other
than their insurance affiliates, which report separately on the
C-series forms. Dollar-denominated liabilities are reported
monthly on Forms BL-1 and BL-2. Liabilities denominated
in foreign currencies are reported quarterly on Form BQ-2.
Respondents report certain of their own liabilities and a wide
range of their custody liabilities to foreigners. Effective with
reports filed as of February 28, 2003, coverage was
broadened to cover the positions of U.S. broker-dealer
respondents with their affiliated foreign offices. (Depository
institutions and BHCs/FHCs already reported such
positions.) The scope of the reports was also extended to
include cross-border brokerage balances as well as offshore
sweep accounts and loans to U.S. residents in “managed”
foreign offices of U.S. reporting institutions. Additionally, in
a new Part 2, Form BQ-2 was expanded to include the
foreign currency-denominated liabilities held by respondents
for their domestic customers. Further, banks’ own positions
have been defined to be consistent with regulatory reports
such as the FR 2950/2951 to include all amounts in the
respondent’s “due to/due from” accounts, unless in an
instrument that is specifically excluded. Finally, the columns
for demand deposits and non-transactions accounts are now
combined, as are short-term U.S. agency securities and other
negotiable and readily transferable instruments.
• Section II presents claims on foreigners reported
by banks, other depository institutions, and securities
brokers and dealers in the United States. BHCs/FHCs also
report for their domestic nonbank and non-securities firm
affiliates, other than their insurance affiliates, which report
separately on the C-series forms. Data on respondents’ own
dollar claims are collected monthly on Form BC.
Information on claims held for domestic customers as well
as on claims denominated in foreign currencies is collected
on a quarterly basis only on Forms BQ-1 and BQ-2,
respectively. Effective with reports filed as of February 28,

June 2009

52

CAPITAL MOVEMENTS

2003, reporting coverage was expanded as outlined in
Section I. Additionally, columns were added for separate
reporting of issued by foreigners. Further, the foreigner
category, negotiable CDs and other short-term negotiable
instruments issued by foreigners. Further, the foreigner
category, “foreign official institutions,” replaced the former,
broader category, “foreign public borrowers,” for
consistency with the liabilities reporting on this sector.
• Section III (formerly reported as 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 securities brokers and dealers), and other
nonbanking enterprises in the United States. Data exclude
claims on foreigners held by banks in the United States.
Historically, the TIC reports CQ-1 and CQ-2 exclude
accounts of nonbanking enterprises in the United States with
their own branches and subsidiaries abroad or with their
foreign parent companies. Such accounts with foreign
affiliates are reported by business enterprises to Commerce
on its direct investment forms. There was an exception when
reporting of foreign affiliate positions of insurance
underwriting subsidiaries and financial intermediaries was
included in Section B of Form CQ-1 for reports between
end-March 2003 and end-March 2006. That reporting
requirement was discontinued with the reports beginning as
of June 2006.
• Section IV (formerly Section V) contains
information on transactions with foreigners in long-term
domestic and foreign securities as reported by banks,
securities brokers and dealers, 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 allocation of the transactions data
indicates the country of location of the foreign buyers and
sellers who deal directly with reporting institutions in the
United States. The data do not necessarily indicate the
country of beneficial owner or issuer, or the currency of
denomination of securities. For instance, a U.S. purchaser’s
order for Japanese securities may be placed directly with an
intermediary in London. In this instance, the transaction for
Form S reporting purposes would be recorded opposite the
United Kingdom and not opposite Japan. Similarly,
purchases and sales of U.S. securities for the account of an
Italian resident may be placed, for example, in the Swiss

June 2009

market. In that case, the trades would be reported opposite
Switzerland and not opposite Italy.

• Section V presents quarterly data on holdings and
net cash settlements of cross-border derivatives contracts
reported by banks, securities brokers, dealers, and
nonfinancial companies in the U.S. with sizable holdings of
derivatives contracts. Total holdings are divided between
those contracts with positive fair values and those contracts
with negative fair values from the perspective of the
reporter. The fair (market) value is generally defined as the
amount for which a derivative contract could be exchanged
in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in
a forced or liquidation sale.
The data on U.S. net settlements with foreign residents
include all cash receipts and payments made during the
quarter for the acquisition, sale, or final closeout of
derivatives, including all settlement payments under the
terms of derivatives contracts such as the periodic settlement
under a swap agreement and the daily settlement of an
exchange-traded contract. In calculating net settlements,
U.S. receipts of cash from foreign persons are positive
amounts (+), and U.S. payments of cash to foreign persons
are negative amounts (-). Items excluded from net
settlements are: (a) collateral including initial and
maintenance margins, whether or not in the form of cash;
and (b) purchases of underlying commodities, securities, or
other noncash assets. (e.g., the purchase/sale by foreigners of
a long-term security is reported on TIC Form S).
The gross fair (market) values and net settlement
payments on derivatives are reported by type of derivative
and by country based on the residence of the direct foreign
counterparty. Positions of foreign customers on U.S.
exchanges are reported opposite the country in which the
foreign counterparty resides. In the case of U.S. residents’
futures contracts on foreign exchanges, the country of the
exchange is reported as the country of the foreign
counterparty.
NOTE: Current and historical data on United States
transactions with foreigners in long-term securities on the
gross foreign liabilities and claims reported by banks and
nonbanks in the United States and on derivatives contracts
with foreigners are available on the TIC website:
http://www.ustreas.gov/tic. These data may be downloaded
as separate time series for each country or geographical area
regularly shown in the capital movements tables. Also
available on this website are other series, including a table
on “Major Foreign Holders of Treasury Securities,” showing
estimated total holdings of U.S. Treasury bills, bonds and
notes for current and recent periods. All data series on the
TIC website are updated monthly.

Includes Bahamas, Bermuda, Cayman Islands, Netherlands Antilles, and Panama. For data beginning June 2006, also
includes the British Virgin Islands.

June 2009

U.S. liabilities to foreigners
reported by U.S. banks were
recorded at $4.5 trillion in
March 2009, a decrease of
$101 billion from yearend
2008. U.S. banking liabilities
include foreign holdings of
U.S. short-term securities but
exclude foreign holdings of
U.S. long-term securities.
U.S. banking liabilities
decreased about $91 billion in
2008, but increased about
$696 billion in 2007 and
about $824 billion in 2006.
However, much of the
increase in liabilities to
foreigners in 2006 reflects
changes in coverage in the
bank-reported data in the first
and second quarters of 2006.
Between June and December
of 2006, when data were
reported on a consistent basis,
banking liabilities increased
about $250 billion.
U.S. banking liabilities are
concentrated in international
financial centers. The data on
this page show that almost 60
percent of U.S. banking
liabilities is currently
recorded against the United
Kingdom and banking centers
in the Caribbean. These
financial centers have
recorded most of the growth
in banking liabilities in recent
years up through 2007. Since
2007, however, U.S. banking
liabilities recorded against the
United Kingdom have
declined sharply.
Meanwhile, banking
liabilities to Asia have
continued to grow at a rapid
pace.

CHART CM-B.—U.S. Claims on Foreigners
Reported by U.S. Banks, Brokers, and Dealers with Respect to Selected Countries
1400
(In billions of dollars)

In December 2008, U.S. claims
on foreigners reported by U.S.
banks amounted to about $3.4
trillion, a decrease of $398
billion from that recorded at
yearend 2007. U.S. banking
claims include holdings of
foreign short-term securities but
exclude holdings of foreign
long-term securities. U.S.
banking claims increased $652
billion in 2007 and $640 billion
in 2006, but part of the latter
increase reflects changes in
coverage in the bank-reported
data in the first and second
quarters of 2006. Between June
and December of 2006, when
data were reported on a
consistent basis, banking claims
increased about $209 billion.
Banking claims increased $312
billion in 2005.

June 2009

As with U.S. banking liabilities,
U.S. banking claims on
foreigners are concentrated in
international financial centers.
About 60 percent of these
claims are reported opposite the
United Kingdom and banking
centers in the Caribbean. Since
2007, however, claims reported
against the Caribbean banking
centers have continued to
increase while claims reported
against the United Kingdom
have declined.

June 2009

The data on this page represent foreign
investors’ purchases and sales of longterm U.S. securities (that is, U.S.
Treasury and Government agency
bonds and notes, and U.S. corporate
bonds and stocks) as reported to the
TIC reporting system. Foreign
investors have also acquired U.S.
equities through mergers and
reincorporations that involve stock
swaps. Net foreign acquisitions of
U.S. equities through stock swaps
amounted to $6 billion in 2005, $4
billion in 2006, $11 billion in 2007,
and less than $1 billion in 2008. There
were no reported acquisitions through
stock swaps in the first quarter of
2009. (Stock swaps data for the most
recent quarter are Federal Reserve
Board/Treasury estimates and are
subject to substantial revisions.)
These stock swaps are not reported
under the TIC reporting system, but
are available on the TIC Website. The
TIC Website also provides estimates
from the Federal Reserve Bank of
New York on principal repayment
flows of foreign holdings of U.S.
government agency and corporate
asset-backed securities (ABS). These
repayments are estimated to have
reduced foreign net purchases of U.S.
securities by $144 billion in 2005,
$160 billion in 2006, $234 billion in
2007, $191 billion in 2008, and $51
billion in the first quarter of 2009.
In 2005, net foreign acquisitions of
U.S. securities (including stock swaps
and accounting for ABS repayment
flows) totaled $873 billion. Net
purchases reached a record of $987
billion in 2006, but then slowed to
$782 billion in 2007. Net acquisitions
slowed further to $221 billion in 2008,
as foreign investors continued to
acquire U.S. securities in the first half
of the year, but on net sold U.S.
securities in the second half of the
year. In the first quarter of 2009,
foreign net purchases (after accounting
for ABS repayments) were $15 billion.

The data on this page represent U.S.
investors’ purchases and sales of longterm foreign securities as reported to
the TIC reporting system. U.S.
investors also have acquired foreign
stocks through mergers that involve
stock swaps. In addition, when foreign
firms reincorporate in the United
States, the associated stock swap
reduces U.S. holdings of foreign
equity. Net acquisitions through stock
swaps amounted to $12 billion in 2004,
$4 billion in 2005, $19 billion in 2006,
$11 billion in 2007, $4 billion in 2008,

Including the stock swaps, U.S. net
purchases of long-term foreign
securities amounted to $141 billion in
2004. U.S. acquisitions picked up to
$176 billion in 2005 and $270 billion
in 2006, but then eased somewhat to
$241 billion in 2007. U.S. investors
switched to net sales of $98 billion in
foreign securities in 2008. In the first
quarter of 2009, U.S. investors
acquired $26 billion in foreign
securities (after accounting for
acquisitions through stock swaps).

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

INTRODUCTION: Foreign Currency Positions
The “Treasury Bulletin” reports foreign currency
holdings of large foreign exchange market participants.
These reports 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, Japanese yen, Swiss
franc, pound sterling, and euro) and the U.S. dollar.
Positions in the U.S. dollar, which have been collected since
January 1999, are intended to approximate “all other”
currency positions of reporting institutions. 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 United
States Code 5315; 31 Code of Federal Regulations 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.

A quarterly report must be filed throughout the calendar
year by each foreign exchange market participant that had
more than $5 billion equivalent in foreign exchange
contracts on the last business day of any quarter the previous
year (end March, June, September, or December).
This information is published in six sections
corresponding to each of the major currencies covered by the
reports. Tables I-1 through VI-1 present the currency data
reported weekly by major market participants. Tables I-2
through VI-2 present more detailed currency data of major
market participants, based on monthly Treasury reports.
Tables I-3 through VI-3 present quarterly consolidated
currency data reported by large market participants that 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 also was noted separately on
monthly and quarterly reports through December 1998,
when this practice was discontinued. 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 pursuant
to chapter 6, section 10 of the Gold Reserve Act of January
30, 1934 (codified at 31 United States Code 5302), which
authorized establishment of a Treasury 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
International Monetary Fund. 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
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.

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: Black Lung Disability Trust Fund
Paragraph added since December 2008
The Black Lung Disability Trust Fund was established
on the books of the Treasury in fiscal year 1978 according to
the Black Lung Benefits Revenue Act of 1977 (Public Law
95-227). The Black Lung Benefits Revenue Act of 1981
(Public Law 97-119) reestablished the fund in the Internal
Revenue Code (IRC), 26 United States Code 9501.
The Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of
1985 (Public Law 99-272), enacted April 7, 1986, provided
for an increase in the coal tax rates effective April 1, 1986,
through December 31, 1995, and a 5-year forgiveness of
interest retroactive to October 1, 1985. The 5-year
moratorium on interest payments ended on September 30,
1990. Payment of interest on advances resumed in fiscal
year 1991. The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1987
(Public Law 100-203, title X, section 10503), signed
December 22, 1987, extends the temporary increase in the
coal tax through December 31, 2013.
The Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008
(Public Law 110-343, title I, subtitle B, section 113), enacted
October 3, 2008, restructured the Trust Fund Debt by 1)
refinancing the outstanding principal of the repayable
advances and unpaid interest on such advances and 2)
providing a one time Appropriation to the Trust Fund in an
amount sufficient to pay to the general fund of the Treasury
the difference between the market value of the outstanding
repayable advances, plus accrued interest and the proceeds
from the obligations issued by the Trust Fund to the
Secretary of the Treasury. The Act also extends the
temporary increase in the coal tax through December 31,
2018, and allows the prepayment of the Trust Fund debt
prior to the maturity date.

The Code designates the following receipts to be
appropriated and transferred from the general fund of the
Treasury to the trust fund: excise taxes on coal sold; taxable
expenditures of self-dealing by, and excess contributions to,
private black lung benefit trusts; reimbursements by
responsible mine operators; and related fines, penalties and
interest charges.
Estimates made by the Secretary of the Treasury
determine monthly transfers of amounts for excise taxes to
the trust fund subject to adjustments in later transfers to
actual tax receipts.
After retirement of the current indebtedness, amounts
available in the fund exceeding current expenditure
requirements will be invested by the Secretary of the
Treasury in interest-bearing public debt securities. Any
interest earned will be credited to the fund. Also credited, if
necessary, will be repayable advances from the general fund
to meet outlay requirements exceeding available revenues.
To carry out the program, amounts are made available to
the Department of Labor (DOL). Also charged to the fund
are administrative expenses incurred by the Department of
Health and Human Services (HHS) and the Treasury,
repayments of advances from the general fund and interest
on advances.
The Code requires the Secretary of the Treasury to
submit an annual report to Congress after consultation with
the Secretary of Labor and the Secretary of HHS [26 United
States Code 9602(a)]. The report must present the financial
condition and results of operations of the fund during the
past fiscal year and the expected condition and operations of
the fund during the next 5 fiscal years.

Glossary
With References to Applicable Sections and Tables
Source: Financial Management Service
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.

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 March 2009, the debt
limit was $12,104,000 million; the limit may change from
year to year.

Average discount rate (PDO-1, -2)—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.

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).

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 also may 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-1)—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
