FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM
12 CFR Part 220
[Regulation T]
Credit by Brokers and Dealers; List of Foreign Margin Stocks
AGENCY: Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.
ACTION: Final rule; determination of applicability of regulations.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The List of Foreign Margin Stocks (Foreign List) is composed
of certain foreign equity securities that qualify as margin securities
under Regulation T. The Foreign List is published twice a year by the
Board.
EFFECTIVE DATE: March 1, 1999.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Peggy Wolffrum, Securities Regulation
Analyst, Division of Banking Supervision and Regulation, (202) 452-
2837, Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, Washington,
D.C. 20551. For the hearing impaired only, contact Diane Jenkins,
Telecommunications Device for the Deaf (TDD) at (202) 452-3544.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Listed below is a complete edition of the
Board's Foreign List, which was last published on October 27, 1998 (63
FR 57237), and became effective November 9, 1998.
The Foreign List is composed of foreign equity securities that
qualify as foreign margin stock under Regulation T by meeting the
requirements of Sec. 220.11 (c) and (d). Additional foreign securities
qualify as margin securities if they are deemed by the Securities and
Exchange Commission (SEC) to have a ``ready market'' under SEC Rule
15c3-1 (17 CFR 240.15c3-1) or a ``no-action'' position issued
thereunder. This includes all foreign stocks on the Financial Times/
Standard & Poor's Actuaries World Indices.
Public Comment and Deferred Effective Date
The requirements of 5 U.S.C. 553 with respect to notice and public
participation were not followed in connection with the issuance of this
amendment due to the objective character of the criteria for inclusion
and continued inclusion on the Foreign List specified in 220.11 (c) and
(d). No additional useful information would be gained by public
participation. The full requirements of 5 U.S.C. 553 with respect to
deferred effective date have not been followed in connection with the
issuance of this amendment because the Board finds that it is in the
public interest to facilitate investment and credit decisions based in
whole or in part upon the composition of the Foreign List as soon as
possible. The Board has responded to a request by the public and
allowed approximately a one-week delay before the Foreign List is
effective.
