FEDERAL RESERVE Factors Affecting Bank Reserves and Condition Statement of F.R. Banks H.4.1 For immediate release April 25, 1974 The average of daily figures for total reserves of member banks declined $199 million in the latest statement week to a level of $36,109 million. Required reserves and member bank borrowings from Federal Reserve Banks increased while excess reserves declined. A decline in float and an increase in Treasury deposits with Federal Reserve Banks were the major factors absorbing reserves in the latest statement week. Partially offsetting these reserve drains were declines in currency in circulation and foreign deposits with Federal Reserve Banks. System Open Market Operations provided $158 million reserves net, on a weekly average basis, through outright purchases of Treasury bills and Federal Agency obligations and through repurchase agreements.
