FEDERAL RESERVE Factors Affecting Bank Reserves and Condition Statement of F.R. Banks H. 4. 1 For immediate release September 13, 1973 The average of daily figures for total reserves of member banks declined $725 million in the latest statement week to $33,419 million. Required reserves, excess reserves and member bank borrowings at Federal Reserve Banks all declined. An increase in float and declines in both Treasury deposits with Federal Reserve Banks and other liabilities and capital were the major factors supplying reserves in the latest statement week. Reserves were drained by a seasonal rise in currency in circulation. During the week, in order to meet temporary seasonal cash n^eds, the Treasury borrowed $131 million from the System, on weekly average, through the issuance of special certificates. System Open Market operations absorbed $2,683 million of reserves net, on a weekly average basis.
