;o? ^ow.; ••Swv FEDERAL RESERVE Factors Affecting Bank Reserves and Condition Statement of F.R. Banks For immediate release March 23, 1972 H.4.1 The average of daily figures of total reserves of member banks declined $516 million in the latest statement week to $31,602 million. Member bank borrowings from Federal Reserve Banks increased while required and excess reserves declined. On weekly average, excess reserves were slightly negative reflecting the large surplus reserve carryover of the previous week. The major factor providing reserves in the latest statement week was a seasonal increase in float. Partially offsetting this reserve gain was an increase in Treasury deposits with Federal Reserve Banks. In addition, System Open Market operations absorbed $45 million net, on a weekly average basis. The Trading Desk made some outright purchases of Treasury bills and coupon issues during the week, but this was more than offset by maturing repurchase agreements made in the previous week. Member bank borrowings averaged $115 million and exceeded excess reserves by $189 million. In the previous week excess reserves exceeded borrowings by $391 million. rtember bank reserves, Reserve Bank credit, and related items Reserve Bank credit: U.S. Government securitiesBought outright — System account Held under repurchase agreements Federal Agency obligationsBought outright Held under repurchase agreements AcceptancesBought outright Held under repurchase agreements Discounts and advancesMember bank borrowings Other Float Other F.R. assets Total Reserve Bank credit Gold stock Special Drawing Rights certif. acct.
