FEDERAL f^URE**. RESERVE Factors Affecting Bank Reserves and Condition Statement of F.R. Banks H.4.1 For immediate release May 7, 1970. The average of daily figures of total reserves of member banks increased $580 million in the latest statement week to $28,582 million. Required and excess reserves increased while member bank borrowings declined. The major factors absorbing reserve s in the latest statement week were currency in circulation, Treasury d eposits with Federal Reserve Banks, and other Federal Reserve liabilities and capital. Together these factors absorbed over $550 million of reserve s. System Open Market operations supplied nearly $1.2 billion of reserves, on a weekly average basis, both through outright purchases of U.S. Government securities and through repurchase agreements. Member bank borrowings were well below the average of recent weeks and exceeded excess reserves by $445 million, compared to the revised figure of $917 million for the pr evious week.
