SET Record

The Securities and Exchange
Commission today announced
that an all-time record Of III
registration statements pro-
posing public securities Offer
ings aggregating $2.2 billion
we're filed with the commission
In March under the Securities
Act Of 1888.
The March totals compared
with 10l filings and SIS billion
of securities In March last year,
80 filings and SIT billion
in the same 1857 month, and
124 and SIS billion in March,
1856. Rejecting the big in
crease in the SECS work, these
figures contrasted with 129 and
81 billion in March. 1916, and
124 and $500 million in the
same 1896 month.
A record volume of 1888 filings
covering $40 billion Of secur-
tiles was recorded in the first
three months Of this year. It
contrasted with 233 filings for
$3.5 billion a year earlier and
266 filings for SAB billion in
the same 1857 period.
For the first nine months of
the fiscal year, which ended
March 81, $40 filings for q
total Of $12.6 billion Of secur-
tiles compared with 653 filings
for $1l billion for the same
period Of the preceding fiscal
year. For IL months Of the
entire fiscal year ended June
80 last year, there were 913
filings for a total Of $3.50 bill
lion, a record high to that date.
The larger volume of Secur-
tiles Act filings which normally
comes in March results from
the fact that companies may
include year-end. December 81,
