Final approval under OMB delegated authority of the extension for

General description of report: This information collection is
voluntary (12 U.S.C. sections 225a and 353 et seq.) and the data
collected will no longer be treated as confidential.
Abstract: This report collects information on the monthly volume of
medium-term notes issued by corporations. The Board staff obtains the
data from the universe of issuers. Individual respondents are surveyed
monthly, quarterly, or semiannually, depending on the level and
frequency of the respondent's issuance activity. In addition, once a
year, all respondents report the amount of medium-term notes
outstanding. The information collected on this report is used to
estimate the volume of new securities issuance by U.S. corporations
that is published in the Federal Reserve Bulletin and to construct
estimates of corporate securities outstanding that are used in the flow
of funds accounts.
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, April 9, 1997.
William W. Wiles,
Secretary of the Board.
