H.4.1

The average of daily figures of total member bank reserves held during the
week ended August 16, decreased a net of $240 million to $23,740 million. Estimated
currency and coin of member banks increased $215 million and their reserve balances
at the Federal Reserve Banks decreased $455 million. Estimated required reserves
decreased $24l million; and estimated excess reserves increased $1 million to $387
million. Excess reserves exceeded member bank borrowings at the Federal Reserve
Banks by $258 million, compared with the revised figure of $295 million the week
before.
The principal changes reducing average reserve balances with Federal Reserve
Banks were decreases of $200 million in U. S. Government securities bought outright,
$49 million in acceptances held under repurchase agreements, and increases of $150
million in currency in circulation, and $87 million in Treasury deposits with
Federal Reserve Banks. Total Reserve Bank credit decreased $244 million.
As of Wednesday, August 16, 1967, holdings of U. S. Government securities
bought outright were $200 million lower than a week earlier, and member bank
borrowings were $6 million lower. Outright holdings of bills and certificates
decreased $200 million, and $4,353 million, respectively. Notes increased $4,353
million as a result of the Treasury refinancing.
