A bank always prefers to lend out all the deposits made by their clients to other customers in order to be able to earn interest on such loans. They are required, by regulators, to maintain a certain amount of reserve ratio in case clients choose to withdraw money. Excess reserves are the reserves they are required to hold, over and above this mandated reserve ratio, to act as a buffer in case of situations such as a bank run. However, having to hold these excess reserves reduces their capacity to earn interest as it reduces the amount of funds they can loan out to customers.
