FEDERAL RESERVE Factors Affecting Bank Reserves and Condition Statement of F.R. Banks H.4.1 For immediate release January 31, 1974 The average of daily figures for total reserves of member banks declined $430 million in the latest statement week to $36,151 million. Required reserves declined while excess reserves and member bank borrowings at Federal Reserve Banks increased. A decline in float and an increase in Treasury deposits with Federal Reserve Banks were the major factors absorbing reserves in the latest statement week. A decline in currency in circulation was the only factor providing a significant amount of reserves. In addition, System Open Market Operations provided $803 million reserves net, on a weekly average basis, through outright purchases of Treasury bills and repurchase agreements.
