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

H.,4.1

For immediate release
September 27, 1973

The average of daily figures for total reserves of member
banks increased $257 million in the latest statement week to $34,136
million. Required reserves and member bank borrowings at Federal
Reserve Banks increased while excess reserves declined.
A decline in float and increases in both Treasury deposits
with Federal Reserve Banks and other Federal Reserve liabilities and
capital were the major factors absorbing reserves in the latest
statement week. Partially offsetting these reserve drains were declines
in currency in circulation and other deposits with Federal Reserve Banks.
In addition, System Open Market operations provided $1,438 million reserves
net, on a weekly average basis, through outright purchases of Treasury bills
and repurchase agreements.
