RESERVE

Factors Affecting Bank Reserves and
Condition Statement of F.R. Banks
For immediate release
January 9, 1969

The average of daily figures of total reserves of member banks declined
$367 million to $27,928 million. Required reserves increased $361 million, and excess
reserves declined sharply from the unusually high level of the previous week. About
300 million of surplus reserves were eligible to be carried forward into the latest
statement week.
Float was the only factor absorbing a sizable amount of reserves in the
latest period. The decline in float-was about seasonal, while the level of float
still remains somewhat higher than is usual for this time of year.
Currency in circulation declined $473 million, about seasonal, supplying
a like amount of reserves. System open market operations provided reserves, on a
weekly average basis, although some matched sale-purchase transactions were made near
the end of the period. Member bank borrowings declined to a level of $499 million,
and exceeded excess reserves by $365 million, compared with the revised figure of
$456 million the previous week.
