aSSSSfc-. FEDERAL RESERVE Factors Affecting Bank Reserves and Condition Statement of F.R. Banks For immediate release H.4.1 December 17, 1970 The averages of daily figures of total reserves of member banks increased $305 million to $29,015 million in the latest week. Excess reserves declined while required reserves and member bank borrowings at Federal Reserve Banks both increased. The major factors absorbing reserves in this latest statement week were a greater than seasonal rise in currency in circulation and an increase in Treasury deposits with Federal Reserve Banks. Several factors added to reserves in small amounts. In addition, System Open Market operations supplied $588 million in reserves net, on a weekly average basis. Member bank borrowings averaged $399 million and exceeded excess reserves by $300 million compared with $153 million for the previous week.
