RESERVE

Jactors Affecting Bank Reserves and
Condition Statement of F.R. Banks
For immediate release
October 16, 1969

H.4.1

The average of daily figures of total reserves of member banks increased
$195 million (net) in the latest statement week to $27,350 million. Required reserves,
excess reserves and member bank borrowings all increased from their average levels
of the previous week.
Increases in currency in circulation and Treasury deposits with Federal
Reserve Banks, which drained reserves, were the major factors affecting reserves in
the latest week. Float declined seasonally, adding to the reserve drain. System
Open Market operations provided over $500 million of reserves, on a weekly average
basis, through the outright purchase of U. S. Treasury bills and the replacement of
maturing repurchase agreements.
Member bank borrowings were somewhat higher than the average level of
recent weeks. In part, this may reflect the effects of the closing of several
Federal Reserve Banks in observance of the Columbus Day holiday. Borrowings exceeded
excess reserves by $1,190 million compared to the revised figure of $864 million JEor
the previous week.
