RESERVE

Factors Affecting Bask Reserves and
Condition Statement of F.R. Banks
For immediate release

H.4.1

June 4, ,1970

The average of daily figures for total reserves of member banks
increased $305 million in the latest statement week to $27,613 million.
Required reserves, excess reserves, and member bank borrowings from Federal
Reserve Banks all increased.
A seasonal increase in currency in circulation and a decline in
other Federal Reserve assets were the major factors absorbing reserves in the
latest week. System Open Market operations provided $348 million in reserves,
on a weekly average basis, primarily through the outright purchase of U. S.
Government securities. Late in the week some repurchase transactions were
also made. Member bank borrowings were above the average level of recent
weeks and exceeded excess reserves by $1,050 million compared to the revised
figure of $899 million for the previous week.
