FEDERAL RESERVE Factors Affecting Bank Reserves and Condition Statement of F.R. Banks H.4.1 For immediate release November 4, 1971 The average of daily figures for total reserves of member banks increased in the latest statement week to $550 million. Required reserves and excess reserves increased while member bank borrowings at the Federal Reserve Banks declined. An increase in currency in circulation was the major factor absorbing reserves in the latest statement week. Float, which normally declines at this time of month, rose contraseasonally by $203 million. Also providing a significant amount of reserves was a decline in Treasury deposits with Federal Reserve Banks. System Open Market operations supplied $57 million of reserves net, on a weekly average basis, primarily through repurchase agreements at the end of the week. Member bank borrowings were $198 million less than excess reserves. In the previous week they exceeded excess reserves by $370 million.
