FEDERAL ••f^URE*** RESERVE Factors Affecting Bank Reserves and Condition Statement of F.R. Banks H.4.1 For immediate release October 24, 1968 The average of daily figures of total reserves held by banks during the week ending October 23, declined $516 million to $26,444 million. Required reserves declined moderately reflecting a reduction in deposits in early October. Excess reserves held by banks declined sharply to a small negative level, as sizable reserve surpluses from the previous statement week were eligible to be carried forward to meet this weekfs requirements. Reserves were provided through a seasonal increase in float and a decline in currency in circulation. In addition, other F. R. accounts (net) declined, reflecting the monthly interest payment on F. R. notes, and provided some additional reserves. The System absorbed $254 million (net) of reserves through open market operations primarily through outright purchases of U. S. Government securities. Member bank borrowings at Federal Reserve Banks declined $183 million, and borrowings exceeded excess reserves by $368 million, compared with the revised figure of $166 million the week before.
