FEDERAL

RESERVE

Factors Affecting Bank Reserves and
Condition Statement of F.R. Banks
For immediate release
February 20, 1969

H.4.1

The average of daily figures of total reserves of member banks increased
$721 million (net) to $23,066 million. Required reserves rose reflecting the increase in member bank deposits in early February. Excess reserves also increased
to a level of $322 million, somewhat above the average level of recent weeks. It
is expected that a sizable portion of this week's excess reserves will be eligible
to be carried forward into the next reserve period.
In the latest statement week, currency in circulation increased seasonally,
absorbing reserves; Treasury deposits with Federal Reserve Banks declined, providing
$162 million of reserves; and float was about unchanged from the relatively high
level of recent weeks. System Open Market operations provided about $400 million of
reserves, on weekly average, primarily through repurchase transactions. In addition,
some U. S. Government securities were bought outright.
Member bank borrowings rose sharply to a level of $1,043 million, and
borrowings exceeded excess reserves by $721 million, compared to the revised figure
of $621 million for the previous week.
