FEDERAL

RESERVE

Factors Affecting Bonk Reserves and
Condition Statement of F.R. Banks
H.4.1

For immediate release
December 26, 1969

The average of daily figures of total reserves of member banks
declined $169 million in the latest statement week to $27,813 million. Required
reserves declined while excess reserves and member bank borrowings from Federal
Reserve Banks increased moderately.
Increases in currency in circulation and Tre asury deposits with Federal
Reserve Banks were the major factors absorbing reserve s in the latest period,
Offsetting these reserve drains was an increase in fl oat about seasonal in
proportion. System Open Market operations absorbed re serves, on a weekly average
basis, although some repurchase agreement transactions were made near the end of
the week which provided reserves. Member bank borrowi rigs from Federal Reserve
Banks averaged $1.1 billion, near the average level of recent weeks. Borrowings
exceeded excess reserves by $896 million, compared to the revised figure of
$987 million for the previous week.
