FEDERAL RESERVE Factors Affecting Bank Reserves and Condition Statement of F.R. Banks H.4.1 For immediate release December 13, 1973 The average of daily figures for total reserves of member banks declined $617 million in the latest statement week to $34,234 million. Required reserves showed little change while excess reserves and member bank borrowings at Federal Reserve Banks declined more sharply. Major factors providing reserves in the latest statement week were declines in Treasury and foreign deposits with Federal Reserve Banks and other Federal Reserve liabilities and capital. Offsetting these reserve gains was an increase in currency in circulation. In addition, System Open Market operations absorbed $825 million reserves net, on a weekly average basis, through matched sale-purchase transactions and maturing repurchase agreements made in the previous week. Some reserves were provided during the week through repurchase agreements.
