FEDERAL RESERVE Factors Affecting Bank Reserves and Condition Statement of F.R. Banks H.4.1 For immediate release February 1, 1973 The average of daily figures for total reserves of member banks in the latest statement week of $32,548 million showed little change from the previous week. Required reserves declined while excess reserves and member bank borrowings at Federal Reserve Banks increased. A more than seasonal decline in float and increases in both Treasury deposits with Federal Reserve Banks and other Federal Reserve liabilities and capital were the major factors absorbing reserves in the latest statement week. A decline in currency in circulation was the only factor supplying a significant amount of reserves. In addition, System Open Market operations provided $884 million of reserves net, on a weekly average basis through outright purchase of Treasury bills and through repurchase agreements. Member bank borrowings a^erag.d $1,311 million and exceeded excess reserves by $877 million compared to $1,080 million for the previous week.
