H.4.1 Factors Affecting Reserve Balances of Depository Institutions
FEDERAL RESERVE Factors Afftcting Baik Rtstrvts aid ***f**LRt**; Condition Stottmrnt of F.l. Banks H.4.1 For immediate release January 29, 1970 The average of daily figures of total reserves of member banks decreased $862 million (net) in the latest week to $28,557 million. Required reserves declined sharply reflecting a seasonal decline in member bank deposits early in January. Excess reserves declined somewhat while member bank borrowings from the Federal Reserve System increased. A seasonal decline in currency and a modest increase in other FR assets were the major factors supplying reserves in the latest statement week. However, these reserve increases were about offset by a somewhat greater than seasonal decline in float. In addition, System Open Market operations absorbed over $700 million of reserves, on a weekly average basis, both through outright sales of U. S. Government securities and matched sale-purchase transactions. Member bank borrowings were higher than the previous weekly averages in the month of January and exceeded excess reserves by $870 million, compared to the revised figures of $760 million for the preceding week.
