RECENT DEVELOPMENTS IN BLACK BANKING: 1970-1971
by
Andrew F. Brimmer*
During 1971, banks owned and controlled by blacks continued
to expand their deposits at a faster pace than did commercial banks
in the country as a whole. While the bulk of the gain in deposits
originated with the private sector, the largest relative gains occurred
in deposits attracted from the Federal Government. The black banks
also continued to increase their earning assets at a faster pace than
that achieved by all insured commercial banks. However, reflecting the
limited outlets for funds in the black community, the black banks
channeled a significant share of their new deposits into loans and
investments outside the area that is the principal focus of their
activities.
In particular, they greatly expanded their holdings of U.S.
Government securities. In fact, the black banks seem to be in an
anomalous position: they exert considerable effort to attract Federal
Government deposits to enhance their ability to lend in the black community;
at the same time, they invest a disproportionate share of their total
resources in Federal Government securities. So while trying to serve as
a magnet to attract U.S. Government funds to the black community, the
^Member, Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.
Miss Jacqueline McDaniel of the Board's staff did the computer
programming to obtain the statistics on which this report is based.

black banks (because of difficulties inherent in lending in the urban
ghetto) perhaps inadvertently may be diverting resources from the black
community into the financing of the national debt.
These are some of the main conclusions which emerge from a
review of trends and developments among black banks during 1971.
The review was based on statistics from the "Consolidated Report of
11
Condition ("Call Report") collected by Federal bank supervisory
agencies each quarter for all insured commercial banks.—^ Part of the
information in the Call Report must be published by each bank in a
newspaper in its hometown, and it is this information that is being used
here. Last October, in response to inquiries about data relating to black
banks, a special statistical tabulation was prepared, and it was indicated
that additional reports would be made following receipt of data from the
June and December Call Reports. Because of the time required to process
and analyze the statistics, the reports may not be ready until four or
five months following the receipt of the Call Reports. The present
report is based on statistics from the Call Report as of December 31, 1971.
The data are presented in four attached tables. Tables I A-D show data as
of December 31, 1970; Tables II A-D show data as of June 30, 1971, and
Tables III A-D show data as of December 31, 1971. In each case, Table A
is a summary of assets and liabilities for all black banks combined.
Table B shows principal assets of individual black banks, and Tables C
1/ The reports by national banks are received by the Comptroller
of the Currency; reports by Federal Reserve member banks are received
by the Federal Reserve Board; and reports by insured nonmember banks
are received by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

and D show for each bank principal liabilities, reserves and capital
accounts. Table IV shows deposit growth and changes in selected types
of assets of black banks during 1971.
All of the statistics in the tables are from that part of the
Call Report which each bank must publish locally. The individual bank
reports are presented here as a matter of convenience.
Trend in Assets of Black Banks
On December 31, 1971, there were 29 banks owned and operated by
blacks in the United States. Three of these institutions had been started
within that calendar year. Eleven of the banks were members of the Federal
Reserve System, and 18 were insured nonmembers. Ten of the banks had
national charters (and thus they were required by law to be members of
the Federal Reserve). And 18 had State charters. Among the latter, only
one had elected to join the Federal Reserve System.
At the end of last December, the 29 black banks had total assets
of $460 million. Two-fifths of this total ($189 million) was held by
member banks. During 1971, total assets of black banks rose by $138 million,
or by 43 per cent. The assets of member banks expanded by $65 million—a
rate of growth not quite as rapid as that recorded by nonmembers. The three
newly-chartered banks accounted for about $12 million of the increase in
1
assets. Over three-quarters of the 1971 rise in the black banks total
assets ($105 million) occurred in the last six months of the year. As
one would expect, the highest growth rates were generally recorded by
the newest banks. But several of the older banks also expanded their
assets at rates well above the group average.

Black banks expanded their assets in 1971 about four times
as fast as did all insured commercial banks (43 per cent vs. 11 per cent).
Consequently, their combined assets rose to 0.072 per cent of the total
for all insured banks at the end of last year—compared with 0.056 per
cent at the end of 1970, and 0.049 per cent at the close of 1969.
Nevertheless, the average black bank remains about one-third the size
of the average bank in the country. For instance, as of December 31, 1971,
the average insured U.S. bank had assets of $46.8 million; the average
black bank had assets of $15.8 million.
Sources of Funds: Growth of Deposits
At the end of last December, total deposits of black banks
amounted to $419 million. This was a rise of $131 million (or 46 per
cent) during the year. Nearly three-fifths of the increase centered in
1
time and savings deposits. At the end of 1970, the black banks total
deposits were divided roughly 50-50 between checking accounts and time
and savings balances. The general structure of deposits at black banks
seems to be roughly the same as that at other banks. As of last Decem-
ber 31, total deposits of both groups of banks were distributed as
follows: 49 per cent demand and 51 per cent time. During 1971, the
black banks raised slightly their share of total deposits in the banking
system. At the end of last year, they held 0.078 per cent of the total--
compared with 0.060 per cent a year earlier and 0.053 per cent at the
end of 1969.
However, the extent to which black banks have attracted deposits
from broad segments of the economy varies considerably. As mentioned

above, these institutions held 0.078 per cent of total deposits as of
last December 31. On the same date, they held 0.071 per cent of private
deposits (i.e., deposits of individuals, partnerships, and corporations).
Their share of deposits of State and local governments was 0.102 per cent.
In the case of the Federal Government, the proportion was 0.492 per cent.
Thus, in relation to their size in the banking system as a whole, the
black banks had performed best in attracting deposits of the Federal
1
Government, and State and local units were next in line. The black banks
holdings of Federal Government deposits are examined further below.
Uses of Funds: Scarcity of Loan Demand
Black banks have demonstrated clearly their ability to attract
deposits. Yet, they continued to face difficulties in finding reasonably
secure outlets for their funds in the black community. At the end of
1971, they recorded $172 million in loans to businesses and individuals.
This amount represented 41.1 per cent of their total deposits. For all
insured banks, loans represented 64.5 per cent of deposits at the end of
last year. Over the last few years, the ratio of loans to deposits has
been shrinking for all banks. Black banks have exhibited the same trend,
but the relative decline in the ratio has been somewhat greater for them.
In the case of all insured banks, the proportion declined from 67.9 per cent
at the end of 1969 to 64.5 per cent last year—a drop of 3.4 percentage
points. For black banks, the decline was 6.0 percentage points—from 56.8
per cent to 50.8 per cent. To some extent, the lag in the growth of
loans reflects the economic sluggishness associated with the 1969-70

recession. The black banks may have been affected by the same factors,
but more fundamental circumstances may also have been at work.
The fact that black banks face a much higher degree of risk
in extending loans than do banks in the nation as a whole is widely
recognized: the lower income of the typical individual borrower, the
smaller size of the average black business, and the higher incidence
of crime in urban areas—all combine to compound the exposure of black
banks to loan losses. The results can be traced in the evidence on
relative loan losses and profitability.
Reflecting this experience, the black banks have been cautious
in channeling their new deposits into loans. For example, in the two
years ending last December, the black banks lifted their share of total
loans outstanding at all insured commercial banks from 0.044 per cent to
0.062 per cent. However, this relative increase was less than the rise
in their share of total deposits—which rose from 0.053 per cent to
0.078 per cent. Thus, there was a widening of the gap between the ability
of the black banks to attract funds and their ability to lend the funds
in the black community.
Because of these limited outlets for loans in their local
communities, the black banks have relied heavily on the acquisition of
investments as earning assets. They have concentrated particularly on
U.S. Government issues, but obligations of States and political subdi-
visions have also been acquired in substantial amounts. At the end of
last December, total investments in marketable securities by the black
banks amounted to $177.8 million. These holdings consisted of $138.9

million in U.S. Government and agency issues, $30.0 million in State
and local obligations, and $8.9 million of other securities (including
corporate stocks). In the aggregate, these investments represented
1
42.4 per cent of the black banks total deposits. On the same date,
at all insured commercial banks, investments amounted to $169.6 billion—
or 31.5 per cent of their total deposits.
Over the last few years, the black banks have come to rely
even more heavily on sales of Federal funds as deposit outlets. These
1
funds represent short-term lending of member banks excess reserves at
Federal Reserve Banks. Usually smaller institutions supply such funds to
the largest banks on an over-night basis. This allows them to employ
their money at little cost and at a fairly good rate of interest—depending
on money market conditions. For example, the Federal funds rate averaged
about 4.91 per cent in June; interest rates on 3-month U.S. Treasury bills
averaged 4.74 per cent; yields on residential mortgages were about 7,38
per cent, and interest rates charged on small business loans probably
were even higher.
At the end of last December, black banks as a group had sold
about $41.4 million in Federal funds. This represented about 9.9 per
cent of their total deposits. Both the level and ratio of Federal funds
to deposits have been rising over the last few years. At the end of
1969, the percentage was 6.2, and it rose to 7.8 by December 31, 1970.
Moreover, if Federal funds sold are classified as loans, the increased
reliance on such outlets is still noticeable. As a proportion of total
loans, fund sales rose from 10.9 per cent in 1969 to 14.3 per cent in 1970
to 19.4 per cent at the end of last year.

Sales of Federal funds by all insured commercial banks have
also been rising relative to total deposits, but the pace has been
somewhat slower than at black banks. For example, at the end of 1969,
the Federal funds/deposit proportion for all insured banks was 2.2 per
cent; this rose to 3.3 per cent at the end of 1970 and to 3.7 per cent
at the end of last year. Again if sales of Federal funds are classed
as loans, the percentage rose from 3.2 in 1969 to 4.8 in 1970 to 5.4 at
the end of last year.
Furthermore, participation in the Federal funds market by
black banks has risen substantially in the last few years. At the end
of 1969, 13 of the 22 black banks (59 per cent) had sold such funds. One
year later, 22 of the 26 institutions (85 per cent) had done so; and at
the end of last year, 23 out of 29 (80 per cent) were carrying fund
sales on their books.
As one would expect, the dependence on sales of Federal funds
varied appreciably from one bank to another. While for all banks fund
sales represented 19.4 per cent of total loans at the end of 1971, the
proportion was 50 per cent or more at two banks. It was between one-
quarter and one-half at six other banks. To some extent, the heavy
reliance on sales of Federal funds reflects the fact that several of
the banks were recently opened for business. As is generally known,
it takes time to develop loan outlets for deposits, so the banks put
their liquid funds to work in the short-term money market. Yet, a
number of the older banks seem to do so because of a scarcity of sound
loan prospects.

Black Banks and the Federal Government
In the last year or so, black banks have made a special effort
to attract deposits of the Federal Government. They have argued that
such funds would help them strengthen their lending in the black commu-
nity. Partly in response to those arguments, a special $100 million-
deposit program was announced on October 2, 1970, to be achieved within
one year. The Federal Government's share of this total was set at
$35 million, and the rest was to come from State and local governments
and the private sector.
The goals apparently were achieved by the target date—
October 2, 1971. A few months later—December 31—the black banks held
$50.3 million in U.S. Government deposits. This was an increase of $20 million
(or two-thirds) over the $30.3 million outstanding at the end of 1970.
As mentioned above, the black banks' total deposits rose by 46 per cent
during 1971. By the end of last year, U.S. Government deposits amounted
to 12.0 per cent of total deposits at black banks—compared with 6.5 per
cent at the end of 1969 and 10.4 per cent at the close of 1970. The
corresponding figures for all insured banks were 1.1 per cent in 1969,
1.6 per cent in 1970, and 1.9 per cent at the end of last year.
Thus, the black banks have clearly demonstrated their ability
to attract deposits from the Federal Government. What is less clear is
the extent to which they have been able to use the funds to expand lending
in the black community. Instead, it appears that black banks may be in
the anomalous position of campaigning for U.S. Government funds which they
then use to finance a disproportionate share of the Federal debt.

As indicated above, black banks have channeled a much larger
proportion of their total deposits into U.S. Government issues than have
banks generally. As of December 31, 1971, black banks held $88.2 million
of U.S. Treasury securities and $50.6 million of Federal agency issues—
for a total of $138.9 million of Federal Government obligations. During
the course of 1971, this total rose by $56.4 million—or by 68 per cent.
In comparison, the black banks' total assets rose by only 43 per cent in
the same period. So at the end of last year, Federal Government securities
1
represented 30 per cent of the black banks total assets. In contrast,
as of December 31, 1971, all insured commercial banks held $82.5 billion
of Federal Government securities—consisting of $64.7 billion of Treasury
issues and $17.8 billion of obligations of United States agencies.
During 1971, this total rose by $7.9 billion—or by 11 per cent. These
batnks' total assets expanded by 11 per cent. Thus, Federal Government
securities accounted for 13 per cent of the total assets of all insured
commercial banks at the end of 1971.
To some extent, of course, the greater proportion of Federal
Government issues in the portfolios of black banks reflects the relatively
small size of these institutions. In general, smaller banks tend to hold
a higher proportion of their assets in U.S. Government securities than do
larger banks. But even after allowing for this fact, the black banks
are still much more dependent on U.S. Government securities as outlets
for their deposits. While these investments obviously provide black
banks with earnings—and thus make a positive constribution to their
progress—they also represent a use of funds alternative to the expansion
of loans in the black community.
