FEDERAL RESERVE
Factors Affecting Bank Reserves and
Condition Statement of F.R. Banks
For immediate release
September 28, 1972

H.4.1

The average of daily figures for total reserves of member banks declined
$38 million in the latest statement week to $33,021 million. Required reserves
increased while excess reserves and member bank borrowings at Federal Reserve
Banks declined.
An increase in Treasury deposits with Federal Reserve Banks and a decline
in float were the major factors absorbing reserves in the latest statement week.
Partially offsetting this reserve drain was a seasonal decline in currency in
circulation. In addition, System Open Market operations supplied $635 million
reserves net, on a weekly average basis, but some reserves were absorbed late in
the statement week through matched sales-purchase transactions. Member bank
borrowings averaged $551 million and exceeded excess reserves by $544 million
compared to $473 million for the previous week.
