  • System Help in Treasury Refinancings FROM: Messrs
    Authorized for public release by the FOMC Secretariat on 2/25/2020 BOARD OF GOVERNORS OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM WASHINGTON March 18, 1960 CONFIDENTIAL (FR) TO: Federal Open Market Committee FROM: Mr. Young There is enclosed a copy of a memorandum dated March 18,, 1960 from Messrs. Rouse, Thomas, and Young with respect to System help in Treasury refinancings. Ralph A. Young, Secretary, Federal Open Market Commi ee. Enclosure Authorized for public release by the FOMC Secretariat on 2/25/2020 March 18 1960 CONFIDENTIAL (FR) TO: Federal Open Market Committee SUBJECT: System help in Treasury refinancings FROM: Messrs. Rouse*, Thomas, and Young Suggestion has been advanced that the System Open Market Account function to help the Treasury minimize its refinancing difficulties when such transactions do not interfere with Federal Reserve credit and monetary policy objectives. Specifically, the suggestion is that the Federal Open Market Committee cooperate in smoothing the refinancing of one-year Treasury bills and November 1961 bonds by acquiring blocks of these issues prior to maturity and then rolling them over at the time of refinancing. The one-year bill proposal has been advanced on two levels, one focuses on the immediate problem of acquiring maturing one-year bills for rollover in the April auction, the other would provide continuing assist- ance in succeeding auctions until the new one-year bill instrument can be accorded a full test of market receptivity. The proposal for buying November 1961 bonds envisages a straight rollover of such acquisitions at refunding similar to the exchange of System holdings in refundings of other maturing Treasury securities.
