FEDERAL RESERVE Factors Affecting Bank Reserves and Condition Statement of F.R. Banks H.4.1 For immediate release December 14, 1972 The average of daily figures for total reserves of member banks increased $79 million in the latest statement week to $31,071 million. Required reserves and member bank borrowings at Federal Reserve Banks increased while excess reserves declined. An increase in float and a decline in other Federal Reserve liabilities and capital were the major factors supplying reserves in the latest statement week. More than offsetting these reserve gains were increases in currency in circulation and Treasury deposits with Federal Reserve Banks. In addition, System Open Market operations absorbed $428 million reserves net, on a weekly average basis. Member bank borrowings averaged $807 million and exceeded excess reserves by $564 million compared to the revised figure of $277 million for the previous week.
