FEDERAL

RESERVE

Foctors Affecting Bank Reserves and
Condition Statement of F.R. Banks
H.4.1

For immediate r e l e a s e
A p r i l 2 3 , 1970

The average of daily figures of total reserves of member banks increased $128 million in the latest statement week to $28,359 million. Both
required reserves and excess reserves increased while member bank borrowings
declined.
A greater than seasonal rise in float was the major factor supplying
reserves in this latest week. A decline in other Federal Reserve liabilities
and capital also supplied a significant amount of reserves. In part offsetting
these sources of reserves was an increase in Treasury deposits with Federal
Reserve Banks. In addition, System Open Market operations absorbed $175 million
in reserves (net) on a weekly average basis. Member bank borrowings exceeded
excess reserves by $833 million compared to the revised figure of $953 million
for the previous week.
