FEDERAL

RESERVE

Factors Affecting Bank Reserves and
Condition Statement of F.R. Banks
For immediate release
July 21, 1966
Figures on factors affecting bank reserves during the week ended July 20
continued to be affected by effects of the airline strike in slowing inter-city and
inter-district check clearances. The average of daily figures of total member bank
reserves held decreased a net of $326 million to $22,919 million. Estimated currency and coin of member banks increased $106 million and their reserve balances at
the Federal Reserve Banks decreased $^32 million. Estimated required reserves increased $2V7 million; and estimated excess reserves decreased $573 million to
$152 million. Member bank borrowings at the Federal Reserve Banks exceeded excess
reserves by $1+79 million, compared with the revised net borrowed figure of
$93 million the week before.
The principal changes reducing average reserve balances with Federal
Reserve Banks were decreases of $969 million in U. S. Government securities bought
outright, $187 million in member bank borrowings, and $100 million in acceptances
held under repurchase agreements, and an increase of $13^ million in Treasury deposits with Federal Reserve Banks. The principal offsetting changes were an increase of $795 million in Federal Reserve float, and decreases of $105 million in
"other" F. R. accounts (net) and $98 million in currency in circulation. Total
Reserve Bank credit decreased $^70 million.
As of Wednesday, July 20, holdings of U. S. Government securities bought
outright were $W+2 million lower than a week earlier, with some of the decline
attributable to the sale of bills, with matching forward purchase contracts, to help
offset the rise in Federal Reserve float resulting from the airline strike. Member
bank borrowings were $135 million lower.
