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

For immediate release
January 18, 1973

The average of daily figures for total reserves of member banks increased
$1,526 million in the latest statement week to $33,991 million. Required reserves,
excess reserves and member bank borrowings at Federal Reserve Banks all increased.
A more than seasonal decline in float was the major factor absorbing
reserves in the latest statement week. Partially offsetting this reserve drain
was a decline in currency in circulation. In addition, System Open Market
operations provided $341 million reserves net, on a weekly average basis through
repurchase agreements. Member bank borrowings averaged $1,301 million and exceeded
excess reserves by $1,009 million compared to the revised figure of $605 million for
the previous week.
