FEDERAL RESERVE Factors Affecting Bank Reserves and Condition Statement of F.R. Banks K.4. 1 For immediate release November 8, 1973 The average of daily figures for total reserves of member banks declined $394 million in the latest statement week to $34,572 million. Required reserves and member bank borrowings at Federal Reserve Banks declined while excess reserves increased. Both Treasury deposits with Federal Reserve Banks and other Federal Reserve liabilities and capital declined and were the major factors supplying reserves in the latest week. Reserves were drained by a reduction in float and an increase in currency in circulation. In addition, System Open Market Operations absorbed $325 million reserves net, on a weekly average basis, through redemptions of Treasury Bills and matched sale-purchase transactions.
