Fcdcrsl Reserve 3snk
of St. Louis

Hie multiplier relating the money stock (M]) to the
monetary base is currently lower than that prevailing a year
ago. A partial explanation lies in increases of the currency
and time deposit ratios, two of the determinants of the money
multiplier.* Over the past twelve months, the rate of growth
in the narrowly defined money stock has exceeded the rate of
growth of its private demand deposit component. This implies
a faster growth in the currency component of Mp as compared to
the demand deposit component and thus an increase in the
public's preference for currency relative to demand deposits.
Over the same interval the rate of growth of
plus time
deposits, inclusive of large CDs, surpassed the growth of
alone. Such a discrepancy in these rates of growth imply an
increase in the public's preference for time deposits relative
to demand deposits.
The composition of total time deposits has changed
substantially in favor of large CDs over the past six months.
This change reflects a rapid rise in the interest rates on
large CDs, which are not constrained by Regulation Q ceiling
rates. Since late December 1973, the outstanding volume of
large CDs has increased by about $15 billion to a level of $79
billion.
The volume of business loans at commercial banks has
continued to rise. This rise, accompanied by a rapid rise in
bank loan rates, reflects an accelerated increase in the
demand for bank loans by business borrowers. The concomitant
increase in the broad spectrum of short- and long-term
interest rates mirror an underlying robust demand for credit.
An exception to the general rise in interest rates since
early-May has been the rate on the 3-month Treasury bill.

For a discussion of the proximate determinants of the money
multiplier, see the October 1969 Review of this Bank.
