Factors Affecting Bank Reserves and
Condition Statement of F.R. Banks
For immediate release
February 3, 1972

H.4.1

The average of daily figures for total reserves of member banks
declined $193 million in the latest statement week to $32,450 million.
Required reserves also declined while excess reserves and member bank borrowings
from Federal Reserve Banks increased slightly.
A seasonal decline in currency in circulation was the major factor
providing reserves in the latest week. Offsetting this reserve increase was a
less than seasonal decline in float. In addition, System Open Market operations
absorbed reserves through the outright sale of Treasury securities. Excess
reserves were only slightly above the week earlier level and exceeded borrowings
by $246 million compared to $226 million for the previous week.
