Factors Affecting Bonk Reserves and
Condition Statement of F.R. Banks
For immediate release
January 22, 1970

H.4.1

The average of daily figures of total reserves of member banks increased
$471 million (net) in the latest statement week to $29,399 million. Required
reserves, excess reserves and member bank borrowings from Federal Reserve Banks
all increased in the latest period.
A seasonal decline in currency in circulation and a decrease in Treasury
deposits with Federal Reserve Banks were the major factors providing reserves in
the latest week. Partially offsetting these reserve increases was a contra-seasonal
decline in float. System Open Market operations absorbed a modest amount of reserves
(net) on a weekly average basis. Most of this absorbtion was through the outright
sales of U. S. Government securities. Member bank borrowings averaged somewhat
higher than in early January and exceeded excess reserves by $780 million, compared
to the revised figure of $853 million for the previous week.
