FEDERAL RESERVE
Factors Affecting Bank Reserves and
Condition Statement of F.R. Banks

H.4.1

For immediate release
March 14, 1974

The average of daily figure for total reserves of member
banks increased $150 million in the lastest statement week to
$34,752 million. Required reserves, excess reserves and member
bank borrowings at Federal Reserve Banks all increased.
Declines in Treasury deposits with Federal Reserve Banks
and other Federal Reserve liabilities and capital were the major
factors providing reserves in the latest statement week. Offsetting
these reserve gains was an increase in currency in circulation.
System Open Market Operations absorbed $21 million reserves net,
on a weekly average basis through repurchase agreements.
