FEDERAL RESERVE
Factors Affecting Bank Reserves and
Condition Statement of F.R. Banks
H.4.1

For immediate release
January 11, 1973

The average of daily figures for total reserves of member banks declined
$104 million in the latest statement week to $32,439 million. Required reserves
increased while excess reserves and member bank borrowings at Federal Reserve Banks
declined.
Major factors supplying reserves in the latest statement week were a seasonal
decline in currency in circulation and a contraseasonal increase in float. System
Open Market operations absorbed $150 million reserves net, on a weekly average basis
through the maturing of repurchase agreements made in the previous week and matched
sale-purchase transactions made in the current week. Member bank borrowings averaged
$691 million and exceeded excess reserves by $631 million compared to $1,265 million
in the previous week.
