FEDERAL RESERVE
Factors Affecting Bank Reserves and
Condition Statement of F.R. Banks

H.4.1

For immediate release
October 19, 1972

The average of daily figures for total reserves of member banks increased $352 million in the latest week to $34,096 million. Required reserves
increased while excess reserves and member bank borrowings at Federal Reserve
Banks declined.
A more than seasonal increase in float and a decline in Treasury deposits with Federal Reserve Banks were the major factors supplying reserves in
the latest statement week. Reserves were absorbed by a seasonal rise in currency in circulation. In addition. System Open Market operations absorbed $428
million reserves net, on a weekly average basis through outright sales of Treasury bills and matched sales-purchase transactions. Member bank borrowings averaged $433 million and exceeded excess reserves by $324 million compared to $162
million for the previous week.
