FEDERAL RESERVE
Factors Affecting Bank Reserves and
Condition Statement of F.R. Banks
H.4.1

For immediate release
October 4, 1973

The average of daily figures for total reserves of member
banks increased $489 million in the latest statement week to $34,625
million. Required reserves and excess reserves increased while member
bank borrowing at Federal Reserve Banks declined.
An increase in Treasury deposits with Federal Reserve Banks
was the major factor absorbing reserves in the latest statement week.
Partially offsetting this reserve drain was a decline in foreign
deposits with Federal Reserve Banks. In addition, System Open Market
Operations provided $1,491 million reserves net, on a weekly average
basis, through outright purchases of Treasury bills and repurchase
agreements.
