| Central
Banking in Other Industrialized Countries The Federal Reserve System is studying the various ways it might manage its portfolio of assets should greater surpluses in the federal government’s unified budget substantially reduce the supply of marketable U.S. Treasury debt. The following articles, written in November 2001, review the practices of central banks in some other industrialized countries, describing how they manage their assets when they hold securities other than their government’s debt. Their experience suggests two broad findings. First, other central banks are relying increasingly on market operations to manage their balance sheets, and when necessary they are cultivating the development of their credit markets in order to support their operations. Second, repurchase agreements (or auctions of other forms of collateralized loans) generally account for an increasing share of central banks’ market operations and assets. |
