o* G ow'-. FEDERAL RESERVE Factors Affecting Bank Reserves and Condition Statement of F.R. Banks H.4.1 For immediate release December 9, 1971 The average of daily figures for total reserves of member banks declined $507 million in the latest statement week to $30,732 million. Required reserves, excess reserves and member bank borrowings at the Federal Reserve Banks all declined. A decline in Treasury deposits with the Federal Reserve Banks was the major factor supplying reserves in the latest statement week. This reserve gain was about offset by a seasonal rise in currency in circulation. In addition, System Open Market operations absorbed $71 million reserves net, on a weekly average basis. Most of this absorption was through the maturing of repurchase agreements made previously. Some reserves were supplied during the statement week, however, through outright: purchases of coupon issues and repurchase agreements. Member bank borrowings were below the average of recent weeks and were $54 million less than excess reserves. In the previous week they exceeded excess reserves by $143 million.
