FEDERAL

RESERVE

Factors Affecting Bank Reserves and
Condition Statement of F.R. Banks
H.4.1*’”

For immediate release
August 16, 1962

The average of daily figures of total member bank reserves held during
the week ended August 15 decreased a net of $18 million to $19,800 million.
Estimated currency and coin of member banks increased $158 million and their
reserve balances at the Federal Reserve Banks decreased $178 million. Estimated
required reserves decreased $91 million; and estimated excess reserves increased
$73 million to $566 million. Excess reserves exceeded member bank borrowings
at the Federal Reserve Banks by $436 million, compared with the revised figure
of $337 million the week before.
The principal changes reducing average reserve balances with Federal
Reserve Banks were decreases of $34 million in U. S. Government securities
bought outright and $26 million in member bank borrowings, and increases of
$121 million in currency in circulation, $110 million in Treasury deposits with
Federal Reserve Banks, and $44 million in "other" deposits with Federal Reserve
Banks. The principal offsetting change was an increase of $129 million in
Federal Reserve float. Total Reserve Bank credit increased $83 million.
As of Wednesday, August 15, holdings of U.S. Government securities
bought outright were $30 million lower than a week earlier, U. S. Government
securities held under repurchase agreement were $121 million higher, and member
bank borrowings were $318 million lower. Outright holdings of bills and notes
decreased $30 million and $3,717 million, respectively; certificates increased
$3>717 million. Changes in holdings of certificates and notes reflected the
exchange of $3,717 million notes maturing August 15 for a like amount of
3-l/2 per cent certificates maturing August 15, 1983*
