Excerpt from Farm-Mortgage Lending Experience of Twenty-Three Life Insurance Companies, the Federal Land Banks, and the Farmers Home Administration
Quarterly data for various series relating to mortgage lending are available for 16 life insurance companies from 1954 to date. Indexes were developed for (1) farm mortgages acquired during the quarter, (2) the increase in principal of farm mortgages already owned by the companies during the quarter, (3) farm mortgages paid in full during the quarter, (4) payments on principal of other farm mortgages during the quarter, (5) farm mortgages on which interest was overdue more than 3 months as of the end of the quarter excluding loans in process of foreclosure, and (6) total farm-mortgage loan commitments (including refinancing of existing mortgages held by the companies) during the quarter. Indexes were not computed for two series farm-mortgage loans owned and farm mortgages in process of foreclosure. Seasonal variations in the value of farm-mortgage loans owned are small and hidden by the large value of the series. The 16 companies used in the analysis have reported data continuously since the first quarter of 1954, the inception date of the regular survey. Because the 16 companies owned about 92 percent of the farm-mortgage loans outstanding for all life insurance companies as of January 1, 1959, the inclusion of the 8 that started reporting after 1954 would change the indexes very little. Furthermore, there is no reason to believe that the mortgage lending experience of 16 companies would differ materially from that of 24 companies. The series for which indexes were computed apparently contained no trend or cyclical movements for the short period analyzed. The indexes.
