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

For immediate release
January 24, 1974

The average of daily figures for total reserves of member
banks declined $1,061 million in the latest statement week to
$36,581 million. Required reserves and excess reserves declined while
member bank borrowings at Federal Reserve Banks increased.
A decline in currency in circulation was the only factor supplying a significant amount of reserves in the latest statement week. This
reserve gain was more than offset by a decline in float and increases in
Treasury deposits with Federal Reserve Banks and other Federal Reserve
liabilities and capital. In addition, System Open Market Operations
absorbed $458 million reserves net, on a weekly average basis, primarily
through redemptions of Treasury bills and matched sale-purchase transactions.
Reserves were provided late in the week through repurchase agreements.
