According to the Federal Home Loan Bank Board, deposits at federally insured savings and loans showed a month-to-month increase of $4.33 billion in November, more than double the October increase of $1.74 billion. However, the bank board also pointed out that deposits have grown by only $45.5 billion in the first 11 months of 1985, compared to a $98.4-billion increase in the same period last year. The sharp slowdown is a result of new regulations limiting the pace at which S&Ls; attract new deposits.
