1. INTRODUCTION
A. PURPOSE
The Department of the Treasury, with the assistance of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and
the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (FRBNY), is conducting a mandatory annual survey of holdings of U.S.
securities, including selected money markets instruments, by foreign residents as of June 30, 2020. The data will be
collected by the FRBNY, acting as fiscal agent for the Department of the Treasury. The data collected will be used
by the U.S. Government in the computation of the U.S. balance of payments accounts, the U.S. international
investment position, and in the formulation of international economic and financial policies. These data also will be
used to provide aggregate information to the public on these foreign portfolio investments and to meet international
reporting commitments.
In order to reduce reporting burden and costs to the government, there will be a substantial reduction in the number
of reporters in four out of every five years. A benchmark survey Report of Foreign Holdings of U.S. Securities,
Including Selected Money Market Instruments (Form SHL) of all significant U.S.-resident custodians and issuers
will continue to be held approximately every five years. In non-benchmark years, the Annual Report of Foreign
Holdings of U.S. Securities, Including Selected Money Market Instruments (Form SHLA) will require reports from
only the largest U.S.-resident custodians and issuers. The data reported under these annual surveys (Form SHLA)
will be used in conjunction with the results of the previous benchmark survey to compute estimates for the nonbenchmark years. The next full Benchmark survey will be as of June 28, 2024.
The determination of who must report on the annual reports (Form SHLA) will be based upon the data submitted
during the previous Benchmark survey and Aggregate Holdings of Long-Term Securities by U.S. and Foreign
Residents (TIC SLT) report as of December of the preceding year. Designated U.S.-resident custodians and issuers
will be required to file detailed security data on Schedule 2, in the same manner as they did on the June 30, 2019
benchmark survey.
B. AUTHORITY
This mandatory survey is conducted under the authority of the International Investment and Trade in Services Survey
Act (22 U.S.C. 3101 et seq., [the Act]) and Executive Order 11961 of January 19, 1977. The Act specifies that the
President has the authority to conduct a regular data collection program, including such studies and reports as may
be necessary and feasible, to secure current information on international investment, including (but not limited to)
such information as may be necessary for computing and analyzing the balance of payments accounts and the
international investment position of the United States (22 U.S.C. 3103). In Executive Order 11961 §2, the President
designated the Secretary of the Treasury to be responsible for collecting data on portfolio investment required by
the Act.

4

C. CONFIDENTIALITY OF DATA REPORTED
The information collected by this survey may be used only for analytical and statistical purposes and to enforce the
Act. Access to the information is available only to officials and employees (including consultants and contractors
and their employees) designated to perform functions under the Act. Persons having access to individual company
information submitted pursuant to the Act are subject to penalties for unauthorized disclosure (22 U.S.C. §3104 and
18 U.S.C. §1905). The results of this survey will be made available to the general public at an aggregated level so
that neither the U.S. persons or organizations providing information nor individual or organizational ownership of
U.S. securities can be identified.
D. PENALTIES FOR FAILURE TO REPORT
Reporting as directed in this package is mandatory for any U.S.-resident person or entity subject to the reporting
requirements set forth in the report instructions. Failure by an entity to provide timely and accurate data can result
in a civil penalty of not less than $2,500 and not more than $25,000, or injunctive relief ordering such person to
comply, or both (22 U.S.C. §3105 (a) and (b)).
Willfully failing to submit any required information under the Act can result in a fine of not more than $10,000;
and, if an individual, may result in imprisonment for not more than a year, or both. Any officer, director, employee
or agent who knowingly participates in such violation, upon conviction, may be punished by a like fine,
imprisonment, or both (22 U.S.C. §3105 (c)).

E. PAPERWORK REDUCTION ACT NOTICE
This report titled “Foreign Holdings of U.S. Securities, Including Selected Money Market Instruments” in the
Federal Register Notice and has been reviewed and approved by the Office of Management and Budget in
accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 and assigned OMB Control Number 1505-0123. The purpose
is to collect accurate and complete data that will enable the Treasury Department to fulfill its responsibility under
the Act. While the burden will vary widely from respondent to respondent, the estimated average burden associated
with this collection of information is 486 hours per report for each U.S.-resident custodian reporting detailed
information on Schedule 2, and 110 hours per report for each U.S.-resident issuer of U.S. securities providing
detailed information on Schedule 2. The amount of time required to complete the report will vary depending on the
amount of data to report. Comments concerning the accuracy of these burden estimates and suggestions for reducing
the reporting burden should be directed to:
Administrator, International Portfolio Investment Data Systems
U.S. Department of the Treasury
1500 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, Room 5422MT
Washington, DC 20220, or
5

The Office of Management and Budget
Paperwork Reduction Project (1505-0123)
Washington, DC 20503

No person is required to respond to any U.S. Government collection of information unless it displays a currently
valid OMB control number.

II. GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

A.

WHO MUST REPORT

All U.S.-resident entities that have been contacted by the Federal Reserve Bank of New
York must report, regardless of the size of their consolidated holdings. All other entities are exempt
from reporting.

Types of reporting entities include U.S.-resident custodians (including U.S.-resident central securities
depositories) and U.S.-resident issuers. Entities that provide multiple services (i.e., provide custodial
services and issue securities) should report securities that meet the reporting criteria for each role and
ensure that securities are not double counted.
•

U.S.-resident custodians, including brokers and dealers, must report all U.S. securities they
hold in custody (or manage the safekeeping of) for the account of foreign residents (including
their own foreign branches, subsidiaries, and affiliates). These securities must be reported by the
U.S.-resident custodian even if the securities are in turn held at DTC, Euroclear, or another central
securities depository, since the central securities depository knows only that it is holding securities
on behalf of the U.S.-resident custodian, whereas the U.S.-resident custodian knows that it is
holding these securities on behalf of a foreign resident. However, if a U.S.-resident custodian uses
a U.S.-resident sub-custodian, the custodian should report if (and only if), it does not maintain
separate accounts at and disclose the clients to the sub-custodian. (If the custodian does maintain
separate accounts at and disclose the clients to the sub-custodian, it should not report, to prevent
double counting.)

•

U.S.-resident central securities depositories, must report all U.S. securities they hold in custody
(or manage the safekeeping of) directly on behalf of foreign residents with which they have
established direct relationships, including foreign-resident brokers, dealers, exchanges, and
central securities depositories.

•

U.S.-resident issuers, must report all securities issued by U.S.-resident units , which are:
1. Owned by foreign residents for which neither a U.S.-resident custodian nor a U.S.resident central securities depository is used. Transfer or paying agents should be able to
provide the U.S.-resident issuer with this information;
2. In book entry form that are held at a foreign-resident central securities depository; or
3. Bearer securities.

Please refer to Section III, What Securities Must Be Reported, to identify reportable U.S. securities.

7

B. CONSOLIDATION RULES

U.S.-resident organizations, including bank holding companies (BHC), financial holding companies (FHC),
and intermediate holding companies (IHC) should include all reportable securities for all U.S.-resident parts
of their organization, including all U.S.-resident branches and subsidiaries. U.S. residents include entities
located in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico and the U.S. territories. Please see Appendix F for the
complete definition of United States. It is the responsibility of the U.S. parent entity in each organization to
ensure that its report includes all applicable entities within its organization.

Securities issued by U.S.-resident trusts and special purpose entities (SPEs) for which the reporter is the
trustee or primary beneficiary should be included. Shares of U.S.-resident funds that are managed by the
reporting entity should be included unless a U.S.-resident custodian other than the reporting entity is used.

U.S. branches and agencies of a foreign bank located in the same state and within the same Federal Reserve
District should submit a consolidated report for these offices. U.S. branches and agencies of a foreign bank
that are located in either different states or different Federal Reserve Districts, should submit separate reports.

C. REPORTING DATES
Report data as of the last business day of June. All data should be submitted to the Federal Reserve Bank of
New York no later than the last business day of August.

D. SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS AND CONTACT INFORMATION

III. WHAT SECURITIES MUST BE REPORTED
This report collects information on securities issued by U.S.-residents that are owned by foreign residents, including
U.S. equities (including shares in funds), U.S. short-term debt securities (including selected money market
instruments), U.S. long-term debt securities, and U.S. asset-backed debt securities.

Reportable securities may be traded or issued in the United States or in foreign countries, and may be denominated
in any currency. Neither the country in which the securities are traded or issued, nor the currency in which the
securities are denominated, is relevant in determining whether the securities are reportable. Securities held as part of
a direct investment relationship should not be reported. (See Section III.I.)

A. FOREIGN-RESIDENT OWNERSHIP
Securities are considered to be foreign owned if, according to the reporter's records; the holder of record is not a
resident of the United States. In addition, all outstanding bearer bonds should be assumed to be owned by foreign
residents and reported by the U.S.-resident issuer. Bearer bonds should also be reported by U.S.-resident custodians,
but only if the reporter’s records indicate a foreign-resident owner (or foreign-resident custodian).

The following are considered to be foreign residents:
•

Residents of foreign countries, including foreign-resident custodians and foreign-resident central securities
depositories. (These include residents of Canada, Mexico, and offshore centers.)

•

International organizations with extra-territorial status (even if located in the United States), such as the
International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (World Bank), the International Monetary Fund
(IMF) and the Inter-American Development Bank.

1

(See Appendix C for a complete list of these

organizations. Most are in the regional group codes: 72907, 73903, 74918, 74942, 75906, 76902, and 77909.)
•

Foreign subsidiaries of U.S. entities and foreign-resident branches of U.S. banks.

•

Offshore and other non-U.S. funds.

•

Entities or individuals that file an IRS Form W-8, indicating that they are foreign residents. Please note that
there may be exceptions (such as Puerto Rico). However, if an IRS Form is not available, the mailing address
can be used to determine residency.

1

Pension plans of international and regional organizations, if located in the United States, are U.S.-resident entities; therefore, any securities owned by these

pension plans should be excluded from this report.

8

B. REPORTABLE U.S. SECURITIES
U.S. securities are securities issued by U.S.-resident entities, with the exception of Depositary Receipts (DRs) that
are backed by foreign securities and securities issued by international organizations that have extra-territorial status,
such as the World Bank and the Inter-American Development Bank. U.S. securities can be issued in any country,
denominated in any currency, and traded on any exchange.

U.S.-resident entities include U.S.-resident branches of foreign banks and U.S.-resident subsidiaries of foreign
companies. Securities issued by foreign branches or subsidiaries of U.S. entities are not U.S. securities unless, due
to merger, reorganization, or default, a U.S.-resident entity assumes direct responsibility for the payment of a
previously issued foreign security.

Reportable securities include:

Equity Securities
•

Common stock

•

Preferred stock (participating and nonparticipating preference shares)

•

Restricted stock

•

U.S.-resident fund shares (open-end and closed-end), REITS, money market mutual funds, index- linked
equity securities including unit investment trusts (including SPDRs, DIAMONDs, etc.)

•

All other equity, including shares or units of ownership in unincorporated business enterprises, such as
limited partnerships

Debt Securities
•

Debt, registered and bearer, including bonds and notes (unstripped and stripped) and bonds with multiple
call options

•

Convertible debt and debt with attached warrants

9

FRN, step up recovery FR (SURF), and range/corridor/accrual notes
•

Asset-backed securities (see Section III.D)

•

All other long-term and short-term debt securities

(Note: U.S. debt securities that are still outstanding as of June 30 should be reported even if the maturity date has
passed.)

C. DO NOT REPORT

Do not report any:
•

Derivative contracts (including futures, forwards, swaps, options and warrants) meeting the definition of a
derivative under ASC 815 (formerly FAS 133). Embedded derivatives that are not bifurcated under ASC
815 should be included in the value of the host contract. However, if an embedded derivative is bifurcated
the derivative should be excluded from the report.

•

Securities which have been temporarily received as collateral under resale agreements or similar financing
agreements (see Section III.F)

•

Loans and loan participation certificates

•

Letters of credit

•

Non-negotiable certificates of deposit

•

Bank deposits, including time (except for negotiable CDs) and demand deposits

•

Annuities, including variable rate annuities

•

Foreign securities, including:
1. Depositary receipts (DRs) backed by foreign securities, including ADRs (American Depositary
Receipts), ADSs (American Depositary Shares), GDRs (Global Depositary Receipts), and IDRs
(International Depositary Receipts).
2. Securities issued by international and regional organizations with extra-territorial status, such as the
International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD or World Bank) or the InterAmerican Development Bank (IDB). (See Appendix C for a list of these organizations.)
3. Securities issued in the United States by foreign-resident entities (e.g., Canadian or Mexican
entities), even if they are denominated in U.S. dollars and traded on U.S. securities exchanges.
4. Securities issued by foreign subsidiaries of U.S. entities (e.g., GMAC Canada) or foreign branches
of U.S. banks, even if they are guaranteed by the U.S. parent company, or issued in the United States.
5. Securities issued by foreign-resident entities under Section 144A of the SEC Act.
6. Securities issued by corporations that were incorporated outside of the United States by the report

10

as of date, including companies incorporated offshore in countries such as the Cayman Islands and
Bermuda.

D. ASSET-BACKED SECURITIES
Asset-backed securities (ABS) are securitized interests in a pool of assets, which give the purchaser a claim against
the cash flows generated by the underlying assets. Securities backed by revolving credits, such as pools of credit card
receivables, are reported as ABS if the return to the owner is based upon these credits, (i.e., the credits do not merely
serve as collateral). Foreign-owned ABS should be reported if the issuer securitizing the assets is a U.S. resident.
The underlying asset should not be used to determine if the ABS are reportable.

Include as ABS all collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs), collateralized bond obligations (CBOs),
collateralized loan obligations (CLOs), collateralized debt obligations (CDOs), and other securities backed by pools
of:
•

mortgages;

•

credit card receivables;

•

automobile loans;

•

consumer and personal loans;

•

commercial and industrial loans and other whole loans; and

•

other assets.

E. FUNDS AND RELATED EQUITY OWNERSHIP

Report foreign-residents’ ownership of shares/units of funds and investment trusts legally established in the
United States (U.S.-resident funds) as equity securities. All foreign-residents’ ownership of U.S.-resident fund
shares should be assigned security type = 3 (fund shares), and not categorized as a debt security, regardless of the
types of securities held by the fund.

For purposes of this report, funds include all investment vehicles that pool investors’ money and invest the pooled
money in one or more of a variety of assets. Funds include, but are not limited to:
•

mutual funds (including both open-end and closed-end mutual funds);

•

money market funds;

•

investment trusts;

•

index-linked funds;

•

exchange-traded funds (ETFs);
11

•

hedge funds; and

•

common trust funds.

•

private funds

The determination of whether a fund’s shares are a U.S. security is based on the country in which the fund is legally
established, not based on the residence of the issuers of the securities the fund purchases. For example, if a foreign
resident owns shares in a fund organized in New York, these shares are reportable U.S. securities, whether or not the
fund purchases foreign securities. Conversely, foreign-resident ownership of shares of “offshore” or other foreignresident funds that purchase U.S. securities should not be reported.

Many funds established outside of the United States have names that are similar to U.S.-resident fund names. This
often occurs when the fund is managed by a group that also manages many U.S.-resident funds and therefore may
be thought of as managing only U.S.-resident funds. If there is doubt as to whether the investment should be classified
as a fund or whether a fund is U.S. or foreign, please contact FRBNY staff at 212-720-6300 or 646-720- 6300.

Report the ownership of U.S. securities by foreign-resident funds. Although ownership of shares of foreignresident funds are excluded from this report, any U.S. securities owned by foreign-resident funds for their portfolio
are reportable. These are distinct investments and, therefore, are not duplicate reporting. U.S. securities owned by
foreign-resident funds should be classified as either equity, debt, or asset-backed securities, as indicated in Section
III.B.

Reporting guidelines for Hedge Funds and other alternative investments
Investment advisors, managers, administrators or similar types of legal entities that create master and feeder
funds both outside and inside the U.S. should report as follows:
•

Investments between the U.S. and foreigner entities (affiliates) of a hedge fund that the investment manager
establishes and the investments the manager makes in these entities, are portfolio investment and should be
reported on this report as long as they meet the criteria for the direct investment exception for private funds
described below.

Example 1
A U.S. investment manager creates a hedge fund comprised of a U.S. Master Fund, a Cayman Feeder Fund, and
a U.S Feeder Fund. The investment that the foreign feeder fund has in the master fund is portfolio investment
and should be reported in the TIC system. Purchase and sales of the master fund shares by the

12

foreign feeder fund should be reported on the TIC S by the U.S. based master fund and the master fund should
report the ownership of their “shares” by the foreign feeder funds as issuer of the “domestic security” on the
SHL(A) report. If a U.S. custodian is involved in the holding the “domestic security” then the reporting
responsibility would be on the U.S. custodian to report on the SHL(A).

Example 2
A foreign hedge fund creates a U.S. based Master Fund, a Cayman Feeder Fund, and a U.S. Feeder Fund.
The investment that the foreign feeder fund has in the master fund is portfolio investment and should be
reported in the TIC system. Purchase and sales of the master fund shares by the foreign feeder fund should
be reported on the TIC S by the U.S. based master fund and the master fund should also report the ownership
of their “shares” by the foreign feeder funds as issuer of the “domestic security” on the SHL(A) report. If a
U.S. custodian is involved in the holding of the “domestic security” then the reporting responsibility would
be on the U.S. custodian to report on the SHL(A).

Direct investment exception for private funds (see Direct Investment in the glossary)
While investments in U.S. entities of 10 percent or more of their voting interest by a foreign entity are typically
excluded from TIC reports, investments in private funds, or between the entities of a private fund, are included in
TIC surveys regardless of ownership share if they meet BOTH of the following criteria:
•

The private fund does not own, directly or indirectly through another business enterprise, an
“operating company” – i.e., a business enterprise that is not a private fund or a holding company— in
which the foreign parent owns at least 10 percent of the voting interest,
AND

•

If the private fund is owned indirectly (through one or more other U.S. business enterprises), there
are no “operating companies” between the foreign parent and the indirectly-owned private fund.

Note: The descriptions of the various examples are based on common master/feeder fund structures. It is possible
for there to be different types of structures when creating these funds and they may be called different names by
some entities. Ultimately, if the entity 1) has less than 10% voting interest, 2) non-voting interest in the U.S. private
fund, or 3) meets the criteria above regarding “operating companies”, it is not a direct investment and will fall into the
category of portfolio investment and needs to be reported as part of the TIC system.

F. SECURITIES INVOLVED IN REPURCHASE AND SECURITIES LENDING ARRANGEMENTS
A repurchase agreement (repo) is an arrangement involving the sale of securities at a specified price with a commitment
to repurchase the same or similar securities at a specified price on a future date. A reverse repo is an agreement whereby
13

a security is purchased at a specified price with a commitment to resell the same or similar securities at a specified price
on a specified future date. Securities lending/borrowing arrangements are agreements whereby the ownership of a security
is transferred in return for collateral, usually another security or cash, under condition that the security or similar security
will revert to its original owner at a future date.

Securities "sold" by foreign residents under repurchase agreements or buy/sell back agreements, lent under securities
lending arrangements, or delivered out as collateral as part of a reverse repurchase agreement or security borrowing
agreement should be reported as if the securities were continuously held by the foreign resident. That is, the security
lender’s U.S. custodian should report the U.S. security as if no repurchase agreement or buy/sell back agreement
occurred.

Securities temporarily acquired by foreign residents as collateral under reverse repurchase agreements, securities
lending or borrowing arrangements, or buy/sell back agreements should NOT be reported. That is, the security
borrower’s U.S. custodian should exclude the U.S. security as if no resale agreement or buy/sell back agreement
occurred.

However, if cash was temporarily received as collateral and was used to purchase securities, those securities should
be reported.

G. STRIPPED SECURITIES
Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal Securities (STRIPS) and other similar instruments are securities
that have been transformed from a principal amount with periodic interest coupons into a series of zero- coupon
securities, with the range of maturities matching the coupon payment dates and the redemption date of the principal
amount.
The residency of the STRIPS and similar instruments is the residence of the entity that issued the stripped security.
However, the type of issuer of STRIPS and similar instruments is based upon the type of issuer of the underlying
security. For example, U.S. Treasury STRIPS should be classified as U.S. Treasury securities even though the
Treasury does not issue or sell STRIPS directly to investors. In addition, all ‘teddy bears’ (TBRs), ‘tigers’ (TIGRs),
‘cats’ (CATS) and ‘cougars’ (COUGRs) should also be classified as U.S. Treasury securities. Holdings of TIPS and
Floating Rate Notes should be reported at fair market value and should not include inflation accretion.
Foreign holdings of stripped securities where the underlying security is not an ABS, both the interest-only (IO) component
and the principal-only (PO) component, should be reported as security type = 10 (bond or note, stripped).
Foreign holdings of stripped securities where the underlying security is an ABS, tranches of stripped ABS, any IO
component, and any PO component, should be reported as security type = 12 (asset-backed security).

14

H. U.S. GOVERNMENT AGENCIES OR FEDERALLY SPONSORED ENTERPRISES
Securities that are issued by U.S. government agencies or federally sponsored enterprises and owned by foreign
residents are reportable. In addition, foreign owned securities that are issued by a U.S.-resident entity and guaranteed
by U.S. government agencies or federally sponsored enterprises are reportable. For purposes of Schedule 2, item 11
(type of issuer), all these securities should be coded as type 2 (agencies). For example, securities that are guaranteed
by the Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA) or the Small Business Administration (SBA) should
be reported as U.S. government agency securities.

I. DIRECT INVESTMENT
Please review the definition of Direct Investment in the TIC glossary and the list of excluded investments in these
instructions (see sections III.C, III.E (direct investment exception), and III.K (Limited Partnerships)) to determine
which investments are direct investments reportable to the Bureau of Economic Analysis of the Department of
Commerce, and not reportable on the TIC SHL(A) and the TIC SLT reports. All holdings known to be direct
investment should be excluded from TIC reports.

J. SECURITIES HELD BY U.S. CENTRAL SECURITIES DEPOSITORIES
U.S.-resident central securities depositories must report all U.S. securities they are holding in custody (or managing
the safekeeping of) directly on behalf of foreign residents, such as foreign-resident brokers and dealers who may be
members of the depository, or foreign-resident securities exchanges or depositories that have established direct
relationships with the U.S.-resident central securities depository.
U.S.-resident custodians should report all U.S. securities that are shown on their records as being owned by foreign
residents (or held in custody by its foreign-resident custodian) even if the safekeeping or settlement of the security
is done at a U.S.-resident central securities depository.

K. LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS

Foreign-resident limited partner ownership interests in U.S.-resident limited partnerships should be reported as
security type = 4 (All other equity). Limited partners’ ownership interests do not carry voting rights; therefore, all
ownership interests, even those greater than 10%, are reportable. The Number of Shares field on Schedule 2 (item
18) should be defaulted to the value reported in the US$ Fair Value field (item 16) because limited partnerships do
not issue shares.
15

General partner ownership interests may be considered to be direct investment, in which case such interests should
be excluded from this report (see Section III.I for a more complete definition of direct investment.)

L. ACCOUNTING RULES, VALUATION OF SECURITIES, AND CALCULATION OF U.S. DOLLAR
VALUES

Accounting Rules
All securities should be reported using settlement date accounting. Gross long positions should be reported. Do not
net any short positions from long positions. Do not enter decimals or negative values in any cells.

Valuation of Securities
Report the fair value of securities as of close of business on the last business day of June. The fair value follows the
definition under ASC 820 (formerly FAS 157). For coupon bonds, valuations should be based on “clean” prices, that
is, excluding accrued interest.

U.S.-resident custodians should, at a minimum, report the fair value to the extent that it is available as part of the
services provided to their customers, even if the price available is for a date prior to the last business day of June. If
there is doubt as to whether to report the available fair value or to report a fair value of zero, please contact FRBNY
report staff at 212-720-6300 or 646-720-6300.

For asset-backed securities (ABS), the value of the unpaid principal amount outstanding at close of business on the
last business day of June should be reported; if principal has been repaid, this value will not be the same as the
original face value, revalued at end-period market prices.

Foreign Currency Denominated Securities – CALCULATION OF U.S. DOLLAR VALUES

If the security is not denominated in U.S. dollars (US$) and a U.S. dollar fair value is not available in your system,
convert the foreign currency denominated fair value into US$ using the spot exchange rate as of the close of business
on the last business day of June. If you need assistance locating an exchange rate, please contact FRBNY staff at
212-720-6300 or 646-720-6300.

If the exchange rate is normally quoted in units of foreign currency per US$, such as ¥105.75/US$, divide foreign
16

currency values by the foreign exchange rate to obtain the US$ values. For example, if the value of a U.S. security
issued in Japan is ¥ 200,000, and the exchange rate is ¥105.75/US$, divide ¥ 200,000 by 105.75 to obtain US$ 1,891.

If the exchange rate is normally quoted in US$ per units of the foreign currency, such as US$1.75/UK£, multiply
foreign currency values by the US$ exchange rate value of the foreign currency to obtain the US$ values. For
example, if the value of a U.S. security issued in the United Kingdom is UK £1,000 and the exchange rate is
US$1.75/UK£, multiply UK £1,000 by 1.75 to obtain US$ 1,750.

M. DATA RETENTION PERIOD

All data used to create this report must be retained by the reporter for a period of 36 months from the date of the
report's submission.

N. REVIEW OF DATA AND REQUEST FOR REVISED DATA

Data submitted on the reporting schedules are reviewed by FRBNY staff. As a result of this review, the reporter may
be asked by FRBNY staff to provide supplemental information, including reasons for significant data changes
between reporting periods, or corrected data. In addition, FRBNY staff may request: (1) information to ensure that
all reportable U.S. securities have been reported; (2) information to ensure that all reported U.S. securities are owned
by foreign residents (or held by foreign-resident custodians or foreign-resident central securities depositories); or (3)
other information that helps to explain or corroborate the submitted data.

Reporters filing data on electronic media that are not formatted per the specifications in Appendix G will be required
to resubmit the data in the proper format.

Each quarter, FRBNY staff obtains a list of debt securities issued abroad by U.S. companies. Experience has shown
that most such issues are largely or completely foreign held. FRBNY staff will compare this information with the
reports submitted by U.S.-resident issuers of foreign placed debt securities to ensure that foreign-issued securities
are being properly reported. FRBNY will ask the issuers of such securities for additional information in cases of
apparent under- or over-reporting.

(Please enter your ten-digit Reporter Identification Number (RSSD) at the top of each page of Schedule 2.)
1. Reporter Identification Number (RSSD) - Enter the ten-digit Reporter Identification Number that is printed
on the mailing label on the report booklet. If you do not know the Reporter Identification Number for your
entity, please contact FRBNY staff at 212-720-6300 or 646-720-6300.

2. Sequence Number - Enter the sequence number of this record, right justified. The first record should be
assigned sequence number 1 and each subsequent Schedule 2 record should be sequentially numbered.

3. Reporting Unit Code - If data being submitted are collected from multiple databases or reporting systems,
please report an internal code that will enable you to identify the database or system from which the
information on this Schedule 2 came. This information will greatly reduce the costs of identifying and fixing
any reporting errors that may occur.

4. Name of Reporting Unit - Enter a description or name of the reporting unit or area that corresponds to the
code reported in item 3.

5. Reporting as - Enter "1" for issuer if your entity issued this security (even if you are also acting as the
custodian). Enter "2" if your entity did not issue this security.

6. Security ID - Enter the security ID code used to identify the security reported on this Schedule 2. CUSIP
codes are strongly preferred. If the CUSIP is not available, please try to provide the ISIN, CINS, Common
code or SEDOL. Do not use internally generated codes unless this security has not been assigned a code
by any recognized numbering agency (e.g., limited partnerships). Records for securities for which a portion
is restricted and a portion is not restricted should be reported with the numbering agency code assigned to the
unrestricted portion. If excessive internal codes are used, we may have to contact your institution to help
identify characteristics of certain individual securities. Please include the security ID’s check digit
and exclude any internal coding characters added to the CUSIP or other numbering agency code.

7. Security ID System - Select the appropriate number from the list shown on the form. For example, if the
security ID number entered in Item 6 is a CUSIP number, enter “1”; if it is a CINS, enter “3.” If the security
ID system used is not listed, enter a code of "7" (Other) and provide the name of the organization generating
the code in item 8.

22

8. Comment Line - If you entered a code of "7" (Other) in item 7 you must provide the name of the
organization generating the security ID code.

Ideally, this would include the type of security, the maturity date if debt or ABS, and: (a) for preferred stock
the annual dividend; (b) for debt securities, the interest rate; (c) for floating rate notes, how the interest rate is
calculated (e.g., Libor plus 1.5); and (d) for stripped securities the type of security/tranche. This information is
particularly important for securities with an internally generated or other security ID not generated by a
recognized numbering agency, (i.e., security ID system codes = 6 or 7).

10. Name of Issuer - Enter the name of the entity that issued the security. Please try to provide the full legal
name of the issuer. For branches of banks, please provide the location of the branch.

11. Type of Issuer –
•

Enter “1” if the security was issued by the United States government or Federal Financing Bank.

•

Enter “2” if the security was issued or guaranteed by a federal agency (e.g., Government National
Mortgage Association (GNMA)) or issued by or guaranteed by a federally sponsored enterprise (e.g.,
Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA)). See Appendix H for a list of these entities.

•

Enter "3" if the security was issued by a state or local government (e.g., New York State bonds).

•

Enter "4" if the security was issued by a depository institution.

Type 1 should be used to report all common stock, including restricted common shares.
Type 2 should be used to report all preferred stock, including participating preference shares,
nonparticipating preference shares, convertible preferred stock, and restricted preferred shares.
Type 3 should be used to report all shares of funds, including funds that invest primarily or exclusively in

23

mutual funds, and unit investment trusts. (See Section III.E)
Type 4 should be used to report all other types of equity, including foreign-resident limited partner

options should be reported as either type 8 (if a zero-coupon bond or note) or type 9.
Type 8 should be used to report bonds and notes that do not provide interest payments, such as discount
notes. However: (1) zero-coupon convertible debt should be reported as type 7; (2) stripped nonasset-backed securities, both the interest-only (IO) and principal-only (PO) components, should be
reported as type 10; (3) U.S. Treasury bills should be reported as type 11; and (4) stripped assetbacked securities, the tranches, and the IO and PO components, should be reported as type 12.
Type 9 should be used to report bonds or notes that: (1) cannot be converted to equity securities, (2)
provide interest payments, (3) have not been stripped (i.e., not an IO or PO), and (4) do not give the
owner a claim against the cash flows generated by the underlying assets (i.e., ABS). These bonds
and notes are commonly referred to as “straight debt.”
Type 10 should be used to report all components of stripped securities, including the IO and PO
components. However, all tranches of stripped asset-backed securities should be reported as type
12.
Type 11 should include all debt other than asset-backed securities that is not covered in types 5-10,
including U.S. Treasury bills, TBRs, TIGRs, CATS, and COUGRs.
Type 12 should include only short-term and long-term securities that represent securitized interests in a
pool of assets and give the investor a claim against the cash flows generated by the underlying
assets. All tranches of stripped asset-backed securities, as well as unstripped asset-backed securities,
should be reported as type 12. Debt which is collateralized by assets (real or financial), but only
give the investor a claim against the underlying interest if the issuer defaults, should be reported as
types5-11, as appropriate.

13. Country of Residence of Foreign Holder - Enter the country code from Appendix C that corresponds to
the country of residence of the owner of the security. If the country of residence of the owner is not
known, report the country of residence of the foreign-resident custodian or foreign-resident central
securities depository. Positions of international and multinational regional organizations, whether located
in the United States or elsewhere, should be reported opposite the classification “International,” if
24

worldwide, or opposite the classifications “European,” “Latin American,” “Caribbean,” “Asian,”
“African,” or “Middle Eastern” regional organizations as indicated in Appendix D. If no country
information is available (as will often be the case with bearer bonds), enter code 88862. If an excessive
number of "country unknowns" is reported for securities other than bearer bonds, we will contact your
institution for further information.

14. Currency of Denomination - Enter the ISO code from Appendix E that corresponds to the currency in
which the security is denominated.

15. Type of Foreign Holder

name of a foreign custodian or other foreign nominee.

•

Enter “2” for all other owners, including personal trusts and other investment vehicles even if the
beneficial owner is an individual.

16. U.S. $ Fair Value- Enter the U.S. $ fair value of foreign-residents' ownership of this security, rounded to
the nearest U.S. dollar. (See Section III.L, Valuation of Securities, for more information on how to
calculate the fair value.)

17. Fair Value in Currency of Denomination - Enter the fair value of foreign-residents' ownership of this
security, rounded to the nearest currency unit. For ABS, the fair value should be calculated based on the
remaining principal outstanding (item 19) rather than the original face value. If the currency of issue is
US$, report the same value as in item 20. (See Section III.L, Valuation of Securities, for more information
on how to calculate the fair value.)

FOR EQUITY SECURITIES ONLY
18. Number of Shares - Enter the number of shares owned by foreigners, including fractional shares, rounded to
the nearest share. Wherever possible, combine partial shares with other ownership shares of the same security
to reduce reporting disparities introduced by rounding partial shares. Securities for which the amount foreign
owned is zero should not be reported.

FOR ALL DEBT SECURITIES (NON-ABS AND ABS)

19. Face Value or Remaining Principal in Currency of Denomination - Enter the face value held in the
currency of denomination, rounded to the nearest whole currency unit. If a security is traded in units, then
25

calculate the face value as: (face value of each unit) * (the number of units held) and report the result in this
field. Securities for which the amount held is zero should not be reported or Enter the remaining principal
outstanding as of June 30, in the currency of denomination, rounded to the nearest whole currency unit. This
will equal the original face value if no principal has been repaid. If a security is traded in units, then calculate
the remaining face value as: (remaining face value of each unit) * (the number of units held) and report the
result in this field. Securities for which the amount held is zero should not be reported.

FOR ASSET-BACKED SECURITIES ONLY
20. Original Face Value in Currency of Denomination - Enter the original face value owned by foreigners in the
currency of denomination, rounded to the nearest whole currency unit. This is the value that is (would have
been) outstanding if no principal has been (had been) repaid. If a security is traded in units, then calculate the
original face value as: (original face value of each unit) * (the number of units) and report the result in this field.

FOR ALL DEBT SECURITIES (NON-ASSET BACKED AND ASSET-BACKED SECURITIES)

21. Issue Date - Enter the issue date of this security in MMDDYYYY format. For example, if the security was
issued on October 4, 1985, enter 10041985. If there are multiple issue dates, enter the first such issue date.

22. Maturity Date - Enter the final maturity date (when all remaining principal and interest are due) of this
security in MMDDYYYY format. For example, if the security's final maturity date is January 5, 2010, enter
01052010.
