Reserve balances held by depository institutions at Federal Reserve Banks in the United States inched up to $2.954 trillion, according to the latest data updated on 25 June 2026. This compares with a previous reading of $2.936 trillion, marking a modest increase in the level of reserves parked at the Fed.
The uptick indicates that banking system liquidity remains ample, with financial institutions maintaining slightly higher balances on deposit. While the move is not dramatic in scale, changes in reserve balances are closely monitored by market participants as one gauge of underlying funding conditions and the behavior of banks in managing their cash positions at the central bank.
