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

For immediate release
September 9, 1971

The average of daily figures for total reserves of member banks
increased $338 million in the latest statement week to $30,869 million.
Required reserves and member bank borrowings at Federal Reserve Banks increased
while excess reserves declined.
An increase in Treasury deposits with Federal Reserve Banks and a
seasonal rise in currency in circulation were the major factors absorbing
reserves in the latest statement week. A seasonal increase in float partially
offset these reserve drains. In addition System Open Market operations provided $411 million of reserves net, on a weekly average basis, through repurchase agreements and outright purchases of coupon issues. Member bank borrowings increased to an average level of $765 million and exceeded excess reserves by $541 million compared tp $363 million for the previous week.
