FEDERAL RESERVE Factors Affecting Bank Reserves and Condition Statement of F.R. Banks H.4.1 For immediate release August 1, 1974 The average of daily figures for total reserves of member banks declined $300 million in the latest statement week to a level of $37,203 million. Required reserves and excess reserves declined while member bank borrowing at Federal Reserve Banks increased. A decline in currency in circulation was the major factor providing reserves in the latest statement week. More than offsetting this addition to reserves was an increase in Treasury deposits with Federal Reserve Banks and other Federal Reserve liabilities and capital, and a decline in float. In addition, System Open Market Operations absorbed $202 million reserves net, on a weekly average basis, through matched sale-purchase transactions although reserves were provided early in the week through repurchase agreements and outright purchases of Treasury bills.
