FEDERAL RESERVE Factors Affecting Bank Reserves and Condition Statement of F.R. Banks H.4.1 For immediate release December 6, 1973 The average of daily figures for total reserves of member banks increased $418 million in the latest statement week to $34,784 million. Required reserves, excess reserves and member bank borrowings at Federal Reserve Banks all increased. A decline in float was the major factor absorbing reserves in the latest statement week. Partially offsetting this reserve drain was a decline in foreign deposits with Federal Reserve Banks. In addition, System Open Market operations provided $710 million reserves net, on a weekly average basis, through repurchase agreements.
