FEDERAL RESERVE Factors Affecting Bank Reserves and Condition Statement of F.R. Banks H.4.1 For immediate release February 21, 1974 The average of daily figures for total reserves of member banks declined slightly in the latest statement week to $35,356 million. Required reserves and member bank borrowings at Federal Reserve Banks increased while excess reserves declined. Major factors absorbing reserves in the latest statement week were increases in currency in circulation and other Federal Reserve liabilities and capital and a decrease in other Federal Reserve assets. Partially offsetting these reserve drains was a decline in Treasury deposits with Federal Reserve Banks. In addition, System Open Market Operations provided $887 million reserves net, on a weekly average basis, through Treasury bills, Federal Agency obligations and repurchase agreements.
