Form G-405 Schedule I

UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY
Washington, D.C. 20220
FORM G-405 SCHEDULE I
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE TO RESPONDENTS: Schedule I of Form G-405 is a calendar year unconsolidated report to be filed by all
registered government securities brokers and dealers as a supplement to the regular fourth quarter Part II or Part IIA of
Form G-405 within seventeen (17) business days after the end of the quarter.
Schedule I requires the reporting of general information designed to measure certain economic and financial
characteristics of the registrant.
SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS
Item 4: "U.S. government agency securities" for the purpose of this instruction excludes U.S. Treasury securities and
mortgage-backed securities, as well as all equity securities. It includes non-equity securities of corporations related to
the United States whose securities are not backed by the full faith and credit of the United States, such as the Federal
National Mortgage Corporation.
Items 6 (a) & (b): These items are to be completed by only carrying firms required to file Part II of Form G-405. Report
total number of public customer accounts regardless of the method by which those accounts are cleared.
The term "public customer" means any person from whom or on whose behalf a registered government securities broker
or dealer has received or acquired or holds funds or securities for the account of such person, but does not include a
government securities broker or dealer, a registered broker or dealer, or a general, special or limited partner or director
or officer of the registered government securities broker or dealer filing the report, or any person to the extent that such
person has a claim for property or funds which by contract, agreement or understanding, or by operation of law, is part
of the capital of the registered government securities broker or dealer or is subordinated to the claims of creditors of the
registered government securities broker or dealer. Omnibus accounts carried for other government securities brokers or
dealers shall not be included in the count of public customer accounts (Item 6(a)) but shall be included under Item 6(b).
Only active public customer accounts will be included in the public account total. For an account to be considered
"active" it must have a non-zero cash or securities balance at the end of the reporting period or have had some action
(purchase or sale of securities, dividend credit, etc.) during the reporting period. Omnibus accounts carried for other
brokers at the end of the reporting period are to be included in the omnibus account total.
Item 8: Indicate with "1" the methods by which respondent clears its public customer accounts. If respondent has no
customers, as defined in Item 6 above, respondent is to place a "1" in the "not applicable" box. If respondent principally
clears its public customer transactions through other than a registered government securities broker or dealer or a
registered broker-dealer, place a "1" in the "other" box.
Item 9: List all clearing banks and brokers through which respondent cleared transactions in book-entry government
securities during any portion of the reporting period.
Item 10: Exchange membership is to include associate and limited memberships as well as regular memberships. The
term "national securities exchange" means any exchange registered under section 6 of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934. The term "commodities exchange" means a "contract market" designated by the Commodity Futures Trading
Commission.
Item 11(a) & (b): Report only full time (full time is defined as anyone who works 40 hours or more per week for
respondent, except that salespersons are considered full time if they work 30 or more hours per week) personnel
employed by respondent as of the last business day of the year. A full time salesperson is any person who spends a
minimum of 50 percent of his or her time engaged in effecting transactions with public customers on behalf of the
respondent. The number of employees and salespersons is "as of" the last business day of the year.
Form G-405 Schedule I

Items 13 (a), (b), (c) & (d): These items are to be completed only by carrying or clearing firms required to file Part II of
Form G-405. Report the total number of public customer transactions. If the basis of the count is an actual count, place
a "1" in the "actual" box. If a statistical method is used, place a "1" in the "estimate" box.
A transaction is defined as an executed trade that results in a customer trade confirmation. Therefore, the count of
transactions should be taken from the customer side and should not include confirmation corrections. For count
purposes, several executions at the same price which result in one confirmation should be counted as one transaction.
In the case where a firm uses a statement-type confirmation, each item of "line" should be considered as a confirmation
for purposes of counting transactions. For those transactions in which the respondent acts as a principal, both street
and customer sides are counted as separate transactions. For non-inventory principal transactions, both the purchase
for inventory and the sale to the customer shall be counted as separate transactions.
Corrections shall be excluded from the transaction count. However, an error transaction, that is a transaction where the
wrong security was purchased and the correct security must later be purchased, is not considered a correction. For
error transactions, the original transaction and the buy and sell from the error account are to be counted as separate
transactions.
Firms carrying public customer accounts for other government securities brokers or dealers on a fully disclosed basis
are to include transactions from those accounts in their number count. Firms introducing accounts on a fully disclosed
basis will report "zero" for these items.
Although an actual count of transactions is preferred, an estimated count may be generated using the following
methodology:
1. Select the specific days for which transactions will be counted by:
a. Randomly selecting one of the first 15 working days of the year as the starting date,
b. Selecting each 8th working date thereafter throughout the entire year,
c. Listing these dates in chronological order. This should result in a list of exactly 30 dates. (If more than this
number have been selected, randomly discard dates throughout the year until only 30 remain.)
2. Count the actual number of transactions on the selected dates.
3. Multiply the total number of actual transactions for the 30 selected dates by 8.33.
Items 15 (a), (b) & (c): Report whether respondent directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by, or is under common
control with a U.S. bank. If the answer is "yes", provide the name of the affiliated bank and/or bank holding company,
and describe the type of institution. The term "bank" is defined in section 3(a)(6) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934.
