H.4.1

For immediate release
December 4, 1969

The average of daily figures of total reserves of member banks increased
$108 million in the latest statement week to $27,655 million. Required reserves
increased seasonally, while excess reserves and member bank borrowings from Federal
Reserve Banks were about unchanged from the previous week.
A seasonal increase in currency in circulation and a seasonal decline in
float were the major factors absorbing reserves in the latest week. System Open
Market operations offset these reserve drains by providing about $600 million of
reserves, on a weekly average basis. Most of these reserves were supplied through
the outright purchase of U.S. Government securities; however, near the end of the
period some reserves were also supplied through repurchase agreements. Member bank
borrowings exceeded excess reserves by $1,096 million, compared to the revised figure
of $1,124 million for the previous week.
