FEDERAL

RESERVE

Factors Affecting Bank Reserves and
Condition Statement of F.R. Banks
For immediate release
January 28, 1971
The average of daily figures of total reserves of member banks decreased
$801 million to $30,202 million in the latest week. Excess reserves increased
while both required reserves and member bank borrowings at Federal Reserve Banks
declined.
A decrease in currency in circulation of $514 million was the major
factor supplying reserves in this latest statement week. Offsetting this
source of reserves was a significantly greater than seasonal decline in float
and an increase in Treasury deposits with Federal Reserve Banks. In addition,
System Open Market operations absorbed $86 million in reserves net, on a weekly
average basis. Member bank borrowings averaged $354 million and exceeded
excess reserves by $59 million compared with the revised figure of $383 million
for the previous week.
