TREASURY ANNOUNCES FEBRUARY QUARTERLY FINANCING
To All Banking Institutions, and Others Concerned, in the Second Federal Resen’e District:
The following statem ent was issued by the Treasury Departm ent regarding its February quarterly financing:
The Treasury will raise about $1,700 million of new cash and refund $5,031 million of securities maturing February 15, 1978, by issuing $2,500 million of 3-1/4-year notes, $3,000 million of 7-year notes, and $1,250 million of 27-1/4-year bonds. The bonds represent an addition to bonds which are currently outstanding.
The $5,031 million of maturing securities to be refunded in the general offering are those held by the public. Government accounts and Federal Reserve Banks, for their own accounts, hold $3,358 million of maturing securities that may be refunded by issuing additional amounts of new' securities. Additional amounts of the notes and the bonds may also be issued, for new- cash only, to Federal Reserve Banks as agents for foreign and international monetary authorities.
Printed on the reverse side is a table summ arizing the highlights of the offering. Copies of the official offering circulars will be furnished upon request directed to our Government Bond Division (Tel. No. 212-791-6356).
Bidders subm itting noncompetitive tenders should realize that it is possible that the average price may be above par, in which case they would have to pay more than the face value for the securities.
If payment is made by check, the check should be a certified personal check or an official bank check, payable on its face to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York; checks endorsed to this Bank will not be accepted.
The tender forms for this offering will be mailed to you as soon as possible. If there is any doubt that tenders sent by mail will reach this Bank or its Branch on time, bidders should use other means of transm itting their tenders.
A recorded message (at the Head Office — Tel. No. 212-791-5823; at the Buffalo Branch — Tel. No. 716-849-5046) provides information about this and other Treasury offerings; additional inquiries regarding this offering may be made by calling, at the Head Office, Tel.
