Prefatory Note
The attached document represents the most complete and accurate version available based on original copies culled from the files of the FOMC Secretariat at the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. This electronic document was created through a comprehensive digitization process which included identifying the bestpreserved paper copies, scanning those copies, 1 and then making the scanned versions text-searchable. 2 Though a stringent quality assurance process was employed, some imperfections may remain. Please note that some material may have been redacted from this document if that material was received on a confidential basis. Redacted material is indicated by occasional gaps in the text or by gray boxes around non-text content. All redacted passages are exempt from disclosure under applicable provisions of the Freedom of Information Act.
1
In some cases, original copies needed to be photocopied before being scanned into electronic format. All scanned images were deskewed (to remove the effects of printer- and scanner-introduced tilting) and lightly cleaned (to remove dark spots caused by staple holes, hole punches, and other blemishes caused after initial printing).
2
A two-step process was used. An advanced optical character recognition computer program (OCR) first created electronic text from the document image. Where the OCR results were inconclusive, staff checked and corrected the text as necessary. Please note that the numbers and text in charts and tables were not reliably recognized by the OCR process and were not checked or corrected by staff.

APPENDIX A:
QUARTERLY SURVEY OF CHANGES IN BANK LENDING PRACTICES November 1973
The large majority of the 125 banks reporting in the November 15, 1973, Quarterly Survey of Changes in Bank Lending Practices were following essentially unchanged policies from three months earlier, when most banks reported that their policies had firmed. (See Table 1.) However, a significant minority of banks reported that their policies had firmed moderately in the most recent period, but a few banks did report some easing. In the preceding survey, virtually no easing was reported. Loan demand at the vast majority of banks had remained unchanged or weakened, and these trends generally were expected to continue. Detailed examination of the responses to the survey, though, revealed that the moves toward tightening seemed to represent lagged responses of banks to stronger loan demands in previous periods as well as increased demands for credit in the current period. There were modest moves toward greater firmness in nonprice terms of lending such as compensating balances and standards of credit worthiness. Banks also had a somewhat more stringent attitude toward new and nonlocal customers and scrutinized more closely the value of loan applicants as depositors or as a source of collateral business. There were no significant divergences between the policies of smaller and larger banks with respect to price and nonprice terms of lending (Table 2). Regionally, the pattern was fairly consistent as bankers generally were guided by policies adopted earlier this year (Table 3).

B-1 SUPPLEMENTAL APPENDIX B* MONTHLY SURVEY OF BANK LOAN COMMITMENTS As reported by 134 banks in the Monthly Survey of Bank Loan Commitments, unused commitments during October grew at a fairly rapid pace comThe growth may in part be reflective of the pared to oher recent months. very slow rate of takedowns in October when the spreads between the commercial paper rates and the prime rate made the commercial paper market attrac-ive to borrowers. Bank customers apparently let their commitments go unused, as outstanding loans under commitments declined slightly over the month. In addition, new commitments advanced briskly compared to the previous month, but the volatility of the series makes interpretation of one-month movements risky. The October data in greater detail, in Table 1, columns 1 and 2, show that unused commitments of commercial and industrial firms grew rather rapidly, which was largely accounted for by a jump in confirmed lines of credit. The unused commitments of nonbank financial institutions also showed rapid growth, even though these institutions drew substantially on their Unused commitments for real estate mortgages, commitments (columns 4 and 5). following the trend of recent months, declined even though new commitments for real estate mortgages increased well above September's level--possibly in anticipation of the large expenditures on plant widely predicted for next year. The reported increase in outstanding mortgages under commitments was modest, but the actual increase was somewhat larger due to loan sales. Table 2 permits a comparison of the most recent figures on unused commitments with such data since the inception of the survey. 1/ Data on unused commitments for July through October 1973, from the 131 banks that reported in all of those months, are presented. Survey information on new commitments and loans under commitments, however, are not shown due to reporting problems in the early months of the survey with those series. Over the entire July-October period, unused C & I commitments increased very little (column 1) while unused commitments for real estate In contrast, nonbank financial institutions, mortgages declined (column 8). reacting to disintermediation earlier perhaps due to thrift institutions this year, built up their commitments from commercial banks appreciably (column 7). 1/ Although the first month of the survey was June, those data were excluded because many banks were unable to provide complete information.
- B-2 Interpretation of the commitments data may be aided by analysis of
the utilization ratio, defined as the ratio of outstanding loans made under commitments to unused commitments plus outstanding loans under commitments. The ratio is often used by bankers to interpret their position regarding commitments. With growth in unused commitments strong over the month of October, the utilization ratio for all commitments declined, led by the drop in the C & I ratio, as shown in Table 3. Only the utilization ratio for real estate mortgages rose in October in response to the decline of unused mortgage commitments.

It no New commitments is a different concept from that used in the Quarterly Survey of Bank Loan Commitments. longer includes renewals and cannot account for the total change in unused commitments. 2/ Loans under commitments are those loans made under commitments currently or previously in force, less repayments principal. The change in loans under commitments is thus the net increase in outstanding loans made under commitments over the period September 30, 1973, to October 31, 1973. It is a proxy for takedowns minus repayments. The stock of loans under commitments and its increment over the period are distorted by takedowns of loan commitments by overseas branches of U.S. banks and loan sales. e-- Partially estimated.

DEMAND DEPOSIT OWNERSHIP SURVEY* October, 1973
Demand deposit ownership data for weekly reporting banks indicate a slightly larger increase in gross IPC deposits (not seasonally adjusted) at these institutions in October than in the same The October strength (See Table 1.) month of previous survey years. in IPC demand deposits followed relatively weak growth in September, which is consistent with the pattern of M1 expansion over the SeptemberOctober period. The largest proportion of the increase in total IPC balances at large banks in October occurred in deposits of nonfinancial businesses; but when compared to previous years, this growth appeard to be mostly seasonal. However, the $500 million increase in deposits held by financial businesses was considerably larger than the average October rise in the 3 previous survey years. The unusual pickup in financial institution deposits in October may have reflected in part an increa in balances of thrift institutions which during this period still faced considerable uncertainty about the future direction of thrift deposit flows. Consumer and foreign held IPC deposits at weekly reporting banks--which in previous October surveys have not grown at all-increased by very small amounts in the most recent survey month.
