Factors Affecting Bank Reserves and
Condition Statement of F.R. Banks

H.4.1

For immediate release
January 16, 1969
The average of daily figures of total reserves of member banks increased

$517 million (net) to $28,480 million.

Required reserves increased $573 million and

excess reserves declined moderately from the level of the previous week.
The major factors affecting reserves in the latest week were float and
currency in circulation.

A decline of about seasonal proportions in float, absorb-

ing reserves, was more than offset by a $449 million reduction in currency in circulation which provided a like amount of reserves. System Open Market operations
absorbed about $400 million of reserves, on a weekly average basis.
Member bank borrowings rose to a level of $688 million, and borrowings
exceeded excess reserves by $542 million, compared with the revised figure of $297
million for the previous week.
