FEDERAL RESERVE
(Factors Affecting Bank Reserves and
Condition Statement of F.R. Banks
For immediate release
November 30, 1972

H.4.1

The average of daily figures for total reserves of member banks increased
$251 million in the latest statement week to $30,745 million. Required reserves,
excess reserves and member bank borrowings at Federal Reserve Banks all increased.
An increase in float was the major factor supplying reserves in the latest
statement week. This reserve gain was more than offset by an increase in currency in
circulation. In addition, System Open Market operations absorbed $219 million reserves
net, on a weekly average basis. Member bank borrowings averaged $572 million and
exceeded excess reserves by $218 million compared to $279 million for the previous week.
