O f COW. ' . FEDERAL RESERVE Factors Affecting Bank Reserves and Condition Statement of F.R. Banks H.4.1 For immediate release December 21, 1972 The average of daily figures for total reserves of member banks increased $322 million in the latest statement week to $31,393 million. Required reserves and member bank borrowings at Federal Reserve Banks increased while excess reserves declined. A seasonal increase in currency in circulation was the major factor absorbing reserves in the latest statement week. Partially offsetting this reserve drain was an increase in float. In addition, System Open Market operations provided $507 million reserves net, on a weekly average basis. Member bank borrowings were above the average of recent weeks and exceeded excess reserves by $1,070 million compared to $564 million for the previous week.
