FEDERAL

RESERVE

Factors Affecting Bank Reserves and
Condition Statement of F.R. Banks
For immediate release
January 7, 1971
The average of daily figures of total reserves of member banks increased
$838 million to $30,579 million in the latest week. Required reserves, excess
reserves and member bank borrowings at Federal Reserve Banks also increased.

Several factors drained reserves by significant amounts in the latest
statement week. These include a rise in other deposits with Federal Reserve
Banks, a decline in the gold stock, reflecting a quota payment to the IMF, and
a decrease in float. Offsetting these reserve declines were a seasonal fall
in currency in circulation and decreases in both Treasury deposits with Federal
Reserve Banks and other F.R. liabilities and capital. In addition,
System Open Market operations provided $801 million in reserves net, on a
weekly average basis. Member bank borrowings were $174 million less than
excess reserves compared to the previous week when excess reserves exceeded
borrowings by $68 million.
