FEDERAL

RESERVE

Factors Affecting lank Rtstrves and
Condition Statonitnt of F.R. Banks

H.4.1

For immediate release
November 27, 1970

The average of daily figures of total reserves of member bank decreased
$409 million to $28,403 million in the latest week. Required reserves and excess
reserves both declined while member bank borrowings at Federal Reserve Banks
increased.
A seasonal rise in float and a decrease in Treasury deposits with Federal
Reserve Banks were the major factors supplying reserves in this latest statement
week. These reserve'gains were offset by a sizeable decline in other F.R. assets.
In addition, System Open Market operations absorbed $247 million in reserves net, on
a weekly average basis. Member bank borrowings averaged $435 million about equal
to the average of previous recent weeks, and exceeded excess reserves by $327
million compared with the unrevised figure of $127 million for the previous week.
