Factors Affecting Bank Reserves and
Condition Statement of F.R. Banks
For immediate release
July 28, 1966

H.4.1

Figures on .factors affecting bank reserves continue to show effects of
delays in inter-city and inter-district check clearances resulting from the airline
strike. During the week ended July 27, the average of daily figures of total
member hank reserves held decreased a net of $21 million to $22,903 million.
Estimated currency and coin of member banks increased $l4 million and their reserve
balances at the Federal Reserve Banks decreased $35 million. Estimated required
reseives decreased $88 million; and estimated excess reserves increased $67 million
to $239 million. Member bank borrowings at the Federal Reserve Banks exceeded
excess reserves by $kkl million compared with the revised net borrowed figure of
$^4-59 million the week before.
The principal changes supplying average reserve balances with Federal
Reserve Banks were decreases of $450 million in Federal Reserve float, $28 million
in gold stock, and an increase of $60 million in Treasury deposits with Federal
Reserve Banks. The principal offsetting changes were increases of $189 million in
U. S. Government securities bought outright, and $49 million in member bank
borrowings, and decreases of $174 million in currency in circulation, $62 million
in "other" F. R. accounts (net), and $33 million in other deposits with Federal
Reserve Banks. Total Reserve Bank credit decreased $219 million.
As of Wednesday, July 27, holdings of U. S. Government securities bought
