FEDERAL 'f^URES^*' RESERVE Factors Affecting Bonk Reserves and Condition Statement of F.R. Banks For immediate release February 27, 1969 H.4.1 The average of daily figures of total reserves of member banks declined $518 million to $27,064 million. Required reserves declined reflecting the change in member bank deposits in mid-February. Excess reserves also declined from the relatively high level of a week ago and were slightly below the average level of recent weeks. A decline of about seasonal proportion in currency in circulation and a reduction in Treasury deposits with Federal Reserve Banks provided reserves in the latest week. An increase in other F. R. accounts (net) absorbed about $200 million of reserves. Float was about unchanged on weekly average. System Open Market operations absorbed about $350 million of reserves (net), on a weekly average basis. Member bank borrowings declined $285 million from the relatively high level of a week earlier, to a level of $758 million. Borrowings exceeded excess reserves by $592 million, compared to the revised figure of $694 million for the previous week.
