I. 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 quinquennial survey of the
ownership of foreign securities, including selected money market instruments, by U.S. residents as of December
31, 2011. 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 and the U.S. international investment position, and in the formulation of international economic and
financial policies. This report also is part of the Coordinated Portfolio Investment Survey (CPIS), an
internationally coordinated effort under the auspices of the IMF, to improve the statistics on the holdings of
foreign securities by major investing countries.
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 (Form SHC) of all significant U.S.resident custodians and end-investors will continue to be held approximately every five years. In nonbenchmark years, the annual survey (Form SHCA) will require reports from only the very largest U.S.-resident
custodians and end-investors. The data reported under these annual surveys (Form SHCA) will be used in
conjunction with the results of the previous benchmark survey to compute economy-wide estimates for the
non-benchmark years.
The determination of who must report on the annual reports (Form SHCA) will be based upon the data
submitted during the previous benchmark survey. Certain U.S.-resident custodians and end-investors (including
fund managers) will be designated to file detailed foreign security data on Schedule 2 and data on foreign
securities entrusted to U.S.-resident custodians on Schedule 3, i.e., they will be required to file in the same
manner as they did on the December 31, 2011 benchmark survey.
B. AUTHORITY
This 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 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.
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 foreign securities can be identified.

1

D. PENALTIES FOR FAILURE TO REPORT
Reporting as directed in this package is mandatory for any U.S. person or organization subject to the reporting
requirements set forth in the report instructions. Failure by an organization 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)).
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 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 1505-0146. The purpose is to collect
accurate and complete data that will enable the Treasury Department to fulfill its responsibility under the Act.
The estimated annual average preparation time per respondent (over five years) is about 84 hours, but this will
vary widely from respondent to respondent. (a) In the year of a benchmark survey (using Form SHC), it is
estimated that exempt SHC reporters will require an average of 16 hours; custodians of securities providing
security-by-security information will require an average of 360 hours, but this figure will vary widely for
individual custodians; end-investors providing security-by-security information will require an average of 120
hours; and end-investors and custodians employing U.S. custodians will require an average of 40 hours. (b) In a
non-benchmark year (using Form SHCA), custodians of securities providing security-by-security information will
require an average of 700 hours (because only the largest U.S.-resident custodians will report), end-investors
providing security-by-security information will require an average of 145 hours; and SHCA reporters entrusting
their foreign securities to U.S. custodians will require an average of 48 hours. Comments concerning the
accuracy of this burden estimate and suggestions for reducing the burden should be directed to:
Administrator, International Portfolio Investment Data Systems
U.S. Department of the Treasury
1500 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, Room 4410-1440NYA
Washington, DC 20220, or
The Office of Management and Budget
Paperwork Reduction Project (1505-0146)
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 custodians and end-investors with holdings of foreign portfolio securities above the reporting
thresholds must report. (See Section II.C, Exemptions.) In addition, all U.S.-resident custodians and endinvestors that are notified by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York that they are required to file must report.
1) Custodians are all organizations that hold securities in safekeeping for other organizations. Most U.S.resident custodians also invest in foreign securities for their own account, i.e., are also U.S.-resident endinvestors for purposes of this report. U.S.-resident custodians should report both the foreign portfolio securities
held in safekeeping for other U.S. residents and their own foreign portfolio securities.
2) End-Investors are U.S.-resident organizations that invest in foreign securities for their own portfolios or invest
on behalf of others, such as investment managers/fund sponsors. This includes securities that are held-fortrading, available-for-sale, or held-to-maturity. Collectively, such investors are referred to as “end-investors”
throughout these instructions. U.S.-resident end-investors include, but are not limited to:
Financial and non-financial organizations
Managers of private and public pension funds
Managers/sponsors of mutual funds (including money market mutual funds), country funds, unitinvestment funds, exchange-traded funds, collective-investment trusts, hedge funds or any
other similarly pooled, commingled funds. Also managers/sponsors of private equity
companies, venture capital companies, hedge funds and other private investment vehicles
Insurance companies
Foundations
Institutions of higher learning (e.g., university endowments)
Trusts and estates
Funds and similar entities that own shares or units of, or other portfolio equity interests in, a foreign
related or non-related entity.
Reports should include all reportable securities held or managed by all U.S.-resident parts of the organization,
including all U.S.-resident branches, offices, and subsidiaries. U.S. residents include organizations organized
under the laws of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico or of U.S. territories and possessions. Please see Appendix
H – Glossary for the complete definition of United States. It is the responsibility of the top U.S.-resident parent
entity in each organization to ensure that its report covers all applicable entities within the organization.
If any of the following conditions apply, please contact the FRBNY staff:
•
•

Your organization is not the top U.S.-resident parent entity in your organization and has been notified
of its obligation to report by, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.
Your organization cannot submit a single report for the entire organization.

Additional copies of the reporting forms and instructions may be printed from the Internet at:

III. WHAT SECURITIES MUST BE REPORTED
This report collects information on U.S. resident holdings of foreign portfolio securities, including foreign
equities, short-term debt securities (including selected money market instruments), and long-term debt
securities. Asset-backed securities are to be reported separately from other debt securities. Foreign securities
are all securities issued by entities that are established under the laws of a foreign country (i.e., any entity that is
legally incorporated, otherwise legally organized or licensed (such as branches) , in a foreign country) and all
securities issued by international or regional organizations, such as the International Bank for Reconstruction
and Development (IBRD or World Bank), and the Inter-American Development Bank (IADB), even if these
organizations are physically located in the United States.
Reportable securities may be traded or issued in the United States and in foreign countries, and may be
denominated in any currency, including euros and U.S. dollars. 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.
As an exception, foreign securities held by a U.S. depository to back depositary receipts/shares should not be
reported. Instead, the U.S.-resident holders of the depositary receipts/shares should report the receipts/shares.
This exception is necessary to identify the portion of depositary receipts/shares actually held by U.S. residents,
because many depositary receipts/shares are held by foreign residents.
A. REPORTABLE FOREIGN SECURITIES
Reportable securities include:
•
•
•
•
•
•

Securities issued by international and regional organizations, such as the International Bank for
Reconstruction and Development (IBRD or World Bank) or the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB),
whether physically located in the United States or abroad.
Securities issued in the United States by foreign-resident organizations (e.g., Canadian or Mexican firms),
even if they are denominated in U.S. dollars and trade on U.S. securities exchanges.
Securities issued by foreign-resident subsidiaries of U.S.-resident organizations (e.g., GMAC Canada) and
foreign-resident offices of U.S. banks or U.S. broker/dealers, even if they are guaranteed by the U.S. parent
company, or issued in the United States.
Depositary receipts/shares, including American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), American Depositary Shares
(ADS), Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs), and International Depositary Receipts (IDRs), if the underlying
securities are issued by foreign residents - (See Section III.E.).
Securities issued by foreign-resident entities under Section 144A of the SEC Act.
Money market instruments, including negotiable certificates of deposit (CDs) issued by foreign-resident
entities.

Equity Interests represent an ownership interest in foreign-resident organizations.
Include as equities:
• Common stock (ordinary shares);
• Preferred stock (participating and nonparticipating preference shares);
• Restricted stock;
• Depositary receipts/shares (e.g., ADRs, ADSs, GDRs, IDRs) provided the underlying securities used to
collateralize the receipts/shares are foreign securities (See Section III.E.);
• Shares/units/other equity interests in foreign-resident funds (including mutual funds and money market
funds), index-linked funds, exchange-traded funds, private equity companies, venture capital companies,

7

•
•

investment trusts, common trust funds, commingled investment accounts, hedge funds and other
investment vehicles – (See Section III.C.);
U.S.-resident limited partner interests in foreign-resident limited partnerships and equity interests in other
companies that do not issue shares (General partner ownership interests are excluded.) (See Section III. J.);
and
Other equity securities, including privately placed equity interests.

Short-Term Debt Securities include bills, commercial paper, and other money market instruments specified
below with an original maturity of one year or less that give the holder the unconditional right to financial
assets. Asset-backed short-term debt securities should be reported as asset-backed securities. (See below.)
Include as short-term debt securities:
• Short-term foreign government securities;
• Short-term bankers’ acceptances and trade acceptances;
• Short-term commercial and financial paper, including asset-backed commercial paper;
• Short-term negotiable certificates of deposit, bank notes, and deposit notes;
• Short-term notes issued under note issuance facilities and revolving underwriting facilities, even though the
underlying facility may be for more than one year;
• Short-term medium-term notes;
• Short-term promissory notes;
• Stripped securities with an original maturity of one year or less; and
• Other short-term debt securities.
Long-Term Debt Securities (excluding asset-backed securities) include bonds and notes, with an original
maturity of over one year, that usually give the holder the unconditional right to financial assets.
Include as long-term debt securities:
• Bonds such as foreign treasury, zero coupon, stripped, deep-discounted, currency-linked (e.g., dualcurrency), floating rate, equity-related (e.g., convertible bonds) bonds and Eurobonds;
• Long-term index-linked debt securities;
• Long-term floating rate notes (FRN), such as perpetual notes (PRN), variable rate notes (VRN), structured
FRN, reverse FRN, collared FRN, step up recovery FR (SURF), and range/corridor/accrual notes;
• Long-term medium-term notes;
• Bonds with multiple call options, the last of which is more than one year after issue;
• Long-term debentures;
• Long-term negotiable certificates of deposit, bank notes, and deposit notes;
• Long-term bearer depositary receipts denoting ownership of debt securities issued by nonresidents;
• Brady bonds;
• Covered bonds (e.g., Pfandbriefe);
• Long-term securities backed by a sinking fund; and
• Other long-term debt securities.
Asset-Backed Securities are securitized interests in a pool of assets, which give the purchaser a claim against the
cash flows generated by the underlying assets. In many cases, the security’s outstanding principal is reduced
over time as principal repayments are received and passed on to the holders of the security. Securities backed
by revolving credits, such as pools of credit card receivables, do not meet this criterion, but are still classified as
ABS if the return to the holder is based upon these credits (i.e., the credits do not merely serve as collateral).
The ABS is reported if the issuer securitizing the assets is a foreign resident. The underlying asset should not be
used to determine if the securities are reportable. Asset-backed commercial paper should be reported as

8

commercial paper with other short-term debt.
Include as asset-backed securities all collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs), collateralized bond obligations
(CBOs), collateralized loan obligations (CLOs), collateralized debt obligations (CDOs), and other securities which
give the purchaser a claim against the cash flows generated by pools of:
• Mortgages;
• Credit card receivables;
• Automobile loans;
• Consumer and personal loans;
• Commercial and industrial loans and other whole loans; and
• Other assets.
B. DO NOT REPORT
Do not report any:
• Derivative contracts (including futures, forwards, swaps, options, and warrants) meeting the definition of a
derivative under ACS 815 (formerly FAS 133). If the embedded derivative has not been bifurcated from the
host contract under FAS 133, then the security should be reported without separating the embedded
derivative from the host contract. However, if the embedded derivative is bifurcated from the host
contract, then the derivative should be excluded from the report and the host security should be included
on the report.
• Loans and loan participation certificates;
• Letters of credit;
• Non-negotiable certificates of deposit ;
• Bank deposits, including time deposits (except for negotiable CDs) and demand deposits;
• Foreign securities temporarily acquired under reverse repurchase, borrowing, or lending arrangements (See
Section III.D.);
• The underlying security of a depositary receipt, even if a foreign security (See Section III.E.);
• Direct investments (See Section III.G.), including investments in real estate and general partner ownership
interests (However, limited partner ownership interests are reportable investments.);and
• All U.S. securities, including:
1. Securities issued by U.S.-resident organizations, even if they are denominated in foreign currencies or
traded on foreign securities exchanges;
2. Securities issued by U.S.-resident subsidiaries of foreign-resident organizations and U.S.-resident offices
of foreign banks or foreign broker/dealers, even if they are guaranteed by the foreign parent company,
or issued outside of the United States;
3. Securities issued by U.S.-resident entities under Section 144A of the SEC Act;
4. Ownership of shares of U.S.-resident funds, even if the fund invests in foreign securities (See Section
III.C.); and
5. Stripped securities issued by a U.S.-resident financial institution, even if the underlying security is a
foreign security (See Section III.F.).
C. FUNDS AND RELATED EQUITY HOLDINGS
1. Report U.S. residents’ ownership of shares/units of, or other equity interests in, funds legally established

9

outside of the United States (foreign-resident funds) as equity securities. All U.S. residents’ holdings of foreignresident funds 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 the money of one or more investors
and that invest the pooled money in one or more of a variety of assets. Funds include, but are not limited to:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•

Mutual funds (including both closed-end and open-end mutual funds);
Money market funds;
Investment trusts;
Index-linked funds;
Exchange traded funds (ETFs);
Investment vehicles that use the money of a single investor to buy securities that the investment vehicle
owns (single investor funds);
Commingled accounts;
Investment trusts;
Common trust funds;
Hedge funds;
Private equity funds.

The determination of whether ownership interests in a fund are foreign securities is based on the country in
which the fund is legally established, not on the type of securities the fund purchases. For example, an interest
in a fund organized in Bermuda that purchases U.S. Treasury securities is a reportable foreign equity security.
Likewise, an interest in a fund established in the United States is a U.S. security and should be excluded from the
report, even if the U.S.-resident fund invests in foreign securities.
Many funds established outside 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 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 report staff at (212) 720-6300 or
(646) 720-6300.
2. Report U.S.-resident funds’ ownership of foreign securities.
Although ownership of equity interests in U.S.-resident funds is excluded from this report, the foreign securities
owned by U.S.-resident funds are reportable. These are distinct holdings and, therefore, are not duplicate
reporting. Foreign securities owned by U.S.-resident funds should be classified as equity, debt, or asset-backed
securities, as indicated in Section III. A.
3. How to report hedge funds and other alternative investment vehicles
a) Investment advisors, managers or similar types of legal entities and fund sponsors that create masterfeeder fund structures both outside and inside the U.S. should report any portfolio investments
between the U.S. and foreign-resident affiliate funds that the investment manager sets up.

10

Example 1
A U.S.-resident investment manager/fund sponsor (IM/FS) creates a Cayman master fund, a Cayman
feeder fund and a U.S. feeder fund. The investments by the U.S. IM/FS in the Cayman funds are
direct investments since the IM/FS controls the affiliated firms and should be reported to the
Department of Commerce, Bureau of Economic Analysis as direct investments. However, the
investment that the U.S. feeder fund has in the Cayman Master Fund is portfolio investment and
should be reported on the SHC by the IM/FS as the representative of the U.S. feeder fund as the
owner (end-investor). However, if a U.S. custodian holds the equity interests of the U.S feeder fund
in the foreign master fund, then the U.S. custodian would have the responsibility of reporting those
interests on the SHC.
Example 2
A foreign-resident IM/FS sets up a Cayman master fund, a Cayman feeder fund, and a U.S. feeder
fund. The investments between the foreign IM/FS and the U.S. feeder fund are direct investment
since the foreign IM/FS controls the feeder fund. However, the equity investment that the U.S.
feeder fund has in the foreign master fund is portfolio investment and should be reported by the
U.S. feeder fund as ownership of foreign equity on the SHC. If a U.S. custodian holds the equity
interest of the U.S. feeder in the foreign master fund, then the U.S. custodian would have the
responsibility of reporting on the SHC.
b) Exclude any investment between the investment manager or other entity that formed the funds (as a
general partner) and all the entities it creates. These are direct investments and should be reported to
the Bureau of Economic Analysis.
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 investment is not
direct investment, then it will fall into the category of portfolio investment and needs to be
reported as part of the TIC system.
4. Fund ownership by Pension and Retirement Plans (including those of State and Local governments,
including municipalities)

11

A state pension plan holds foreign investments through (a) onshore funds (including funds of hedge
funds) and (b) offshore funds (including funds of hedge funds). For the purposes of TIC, the requirement
to report is based on the country in which the fund is legally established.
(a) The investments in onshore U.S funds (including funds of hedge funds) are investments in U.S.resident entities and are therefore not reportable on the SHC.
(b) The investments in offshore funds (including funds of hedge funds) are investments in foreignresident entities, and are therefore reportable on the SHC. Only the shares of the funds themselves are
reportable (not their underlying investments), and only if the pension investments are portfolio
investment.
If those investments are direct investments, such as general partnership interests, then the investments
are reportable to the Bureau of Economic Analysis of the Department of Commerce. If a U.S. custodian
holds the foreign portfolio interests in the offshore funds on behalf of the pension plans, the U.S.
custodian would have the reporting responsibility to report on the SHC and the TIC Form SLT report.
D. SECURITIES INVOLVED IN REPURCHASE AND SECURITIES LENDING ARRANGEMENTS
A repurchase agreement (repo) is an arrangement involving the sale of securities at a specified price for cash
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 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. All of these arrangements, as well as buy/sell agreements, should be treated as follows:
•

Securities sold under repurchase agreements or lent under securities lending arrangements, or collateral
provided, should be reported by the original owner of the securities (or their U.S.-resident custodian) as if
the securities were continuously held; that is, as if the repurchase or security lending agreement did not
exist. Thus, if a U.S. resident transferred a foreign security under a repurchase or securities lending
arrangement, the U.S. resident (or their U.S.-resident custodian) transferring the security should include it in
its Schedule 2 or Schedule 3 records. The country reported should be the country of the issuer of the
security and not the country of the counterparty to the repo or other agreement.

•

Securities, including collateral, temporarily acquired by U.S. residents under reverse repurchase or
borrowing or lending arrangements should not be reported.

•

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

12

E. DEPOSITARY RECEIPTS/SHARES
Depositary receipts/shares, including American depositary receipts (ADRs) or bearer depositary receipts, should
be attributed to the country of residence of the issuer of the security underlying the depositary receipt/share.
Issuers of depositary receipts/shares should not report their holdings of the actual foreign securities. Only U.S.
residents’ holdings of depositary receipts/shares should be reported.
In addition, the security type reported should be determined based on the security underlying the depositary
receipt/share. For example, if the underlying security is foreign common stock then the security type reported
in Item 7 of the Schedule 2 should be 1 (common stock).
F. STRIPPED SECURITIES
Stripped securities 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 country of residence of a stripped security is the country of residence of the entity that issued the stripped
security, not the country of residence of the entity that issued the underlying security. Stripped securities issued
by foreign residents, (the interest-only (IO) component, the principal-only (PO) component and tranches of
stripped asset-backed securities), and held by U.S. residents are reportable. If a U.S.-resident financial
institution issued the stripped securities, the issuer of the stripped securities should report its ownership of the
underlying foreign securities. Exclude U.S. residents’ holdings of stripped securities issued by a U.S.-resident
financial institution.
G. DIRECT INVESTMENT
All holdings known to be direct investment should be excluded from the survey.
A direct investment relationship exists when a U.S. resident owns, directly or indirectly, 10% or more of the
voting equity securities of an incorporated foreign business (or an equivalent interest in an unincorporated
foreign business or branch. (See Section III.K.) If a direct investment relationship exists, then, in general, all
securities held by the parent entity that were issued by the affiliate of the parent are considered to be direct
investment.
However, if one of the entities is a depository institution, a securities firm, a bank holding company or
financial holding company, then inter-company holdings are not considered to be direct investment and are
reportable on the SHC. See the Glossary for a complete definition of direct investment.
H. SECURITIES HELD BY CENTRAL SECURITIES DEPOSITORIES
Foreign securities entrusted to U.S.-resident custodians that are in turn held at a U.S.-resident central securities
depository (such as the Depository Trust Company or the Federal Reserve Bank of New York), or a foreignresident central securities depository (such as Euroclear or Clearstream), must be reported by the U.S.-resident
custodian, not by the U.S. or foreign-resident central securities depository. Likewise, foreign securities held by a
U.S.-resident end-investor directly with a U.S.-resident or foreign-resident central securities depository must be
reported by the U.S.-resident end-investor, not by the central securities depository.
Foreign securities provided to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (FRBNY) for discount window loan
collateral must be reported by the “lender” of the securities, not by the FRBNY.

13

I. COUNTRY ATTRIBUTION
Except for securities issued by international and regional organizations and depositary receipts, securities should
be reported based upon the country of residence of the issuer of the securities. The country of residence of
any entity is where it is legally incorporated or otherwise legally organized, with the exception of bank branches,
whose country of residence is the country where they are licensed. In cases where a foreign subsidiary of a U.S.resident organization issues a reportable security, report these securities in the country where the foreign
subsidiary is resident if the security is the direct legal obligation of the foreign subsidiary.
Depositary receipts should be attributed to the country of residence of the issuer of the security underlying the
depositary receipt.
Securities issued by international and regional organizations are not allocated to the country in which the
international or regional organization is located. The country attribution for most international and regional
organizations is group code 79995. Refer to Appendix E for a list of international and regional organizations.
A few international and regional organizations have their own geographic classification (country) codes in the
Appendix and those codes should be used in reporting on the SHC.
Attribution of country of residence of the issuer should not be affected by the currency of issue or by the
country of a guarantor.
J.

LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS

U.S.-resident limited partner interests in foreign-resident limited partnerships should be reported as Other
Equity (Schedule 2, Item 7 = 4). Limited partners’ ownership does not carry voting rights; therefore, such
ownership, even if greater than 10%, is reportable. The Number of Shares Held field on the Schedule 2 (Item 16)
should be defaulted to the value reported in the US$ Fair Value field (Item 14a) because limited partnerships do
not issue shares.
U.S.-resident general partner interests in foreign-resident limited partnerships are always considered to be
direct investment and are excluded from this report.
K. 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 December 31, 2011. The fair value follows the definition of ASC 820
(formerly FAS 157). Fair value is the amount at which an asset could be bought or sold in a current transaction
between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. If a quoted market price is available for an
instrument, the fair value is the product of the number of trading units times that market price. For securities
that do not regularly trade, the estimate of fair value should be based on the best information available in the
circumstances. The estimate of fair value should consider prices for similar assets and the results of valuation
techniques to the extent available in the circumstances. Examples of valuation techniques include discounted

14

cash flow, matrix pricing, option-adjusted spread models and fundamental analysis.
For asset-backed securities, the fair value of the unpaid principal amount outstanding on December 31 should
be reported; if principal has been repaid, this fair value will not be the same as the original face value revalued
at end-period market prices.
U.S.-resident custodians should, at a minimum, report the fair value to the extent that it is available as part of
their normal services provided to customers, even if the price available is prior to December 31. 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.
Foreign Currency Denominated Securities – Calculation of U.S. Dollar Values
If the security is not denominated in U.S. dollars (US$) and a US$ fair value is not available in your system,
convert the foreign currency denominated fair value into US$ using the spot exchange rate as of December 31.
If you need assistance locating an exchange rate, please contact FRBNY staff at (212) 720-6300 or (646) 7206300.
If the exchange rate is normally quoted in units of foreign currency per US$, such as ¥105.75/US$, divide foreign
currency values by the foreign exchange rate to obtain the US$ values. For example, if the value of a security
issued in Japan is ¥ 200,000, 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$1.75/UK£, then
multiply foreign currency values by the US$ exchange rate value of the foreign currency to obtain US$ values.
For example, if the value of a security issued in the United Kingdom is UK £1,000, multiply UK £1,000 by 1.75 to
obtain US$ 1,750.
L. DATA RETENTION PERIOD
The reporter must retain all data used to create this report for a period of 36 months from the date of the
report's submission.
M. REVIEW OF DATA AND REQUESTS 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 foreign securities have been reported; (2) information to ensure that all reported
foreign securities are held by U.S. residents; or (3) other information that helps to explain or corroborate the
submitted data.
Entities filing data on electronic media that are not formatted per the specifications in Appendix I will be
required to re-submit the data in the proper format.

preferred stock, restricted preferred stock, and depositary receipts where the underlying security is preferred
stock should be reported as security type 2.
Funds include all investment vehicles that pool investors’ money and invest the pooled money in one or more of
a variety of assets. Also, funds include investments vehicles owned by a single investor when the vehicle, not the
investor in the fund, is the owner of the securities. All ownership interests in funds should be reported as
security type 3, regardless of the types of securities held by the fund. (See Section III.C.)
All other equity includes U.S.-resident limited partner ownership of foreign-resident limited partnerships and

notes are commonly referred to as “straight debt.”
Asset-backed securities, security type 10, includes securities that represent securitized interests in a pool of
assets and that give the investor a claim against the cash flows generated by the underlying assets, except for
asset-backed commercial paper, which should be reported as security type 5. All tranches of stripped assetbacked securities, as well as unstripped asset-backed securities, should be reported as security type 10. Debt

codes 2 through 4). When your organization is the custodian and cannot identify the entity type of the
beneficial owner, the ownership code should be reported as ownership code 6.
Ownership code 6 should be used if your organization is the custodian and the entity type of the owner is
unknown.

APPENDIX H: GLOSSARY
AMERICAN DEPOSITARY RECEIPT (ADR) – Negotiable certificates, typically issued by a U.S.-resident company, for
shares of stock issued by a foreign corporation. The securities are held in a custodial account, either at the issuing
bank or by an agent. The ADR should be reported, not the foreign securities held by the depository. Report the ADR
as common stock (security type-=1) if the underlying foreign security is common stock or as preferred stock (security
type =2) if the underlying foreign security is preferred stock. (See Section III.E for more information on the correct
reporting of these securities.)
AMERICAN DEPOSITARY SHARE (ADS) – Negotiable securities certificate issued in the United States by transfer
agents acting on behalf of foreign issuers, where the foreign issuers absorb part or all of the handling costs involved.
The ADS should be reported, not the foreign securities held in custody. Report the ADS as common stock (security
type =1) if the underlying foreign security is common stock or as preferred stock (security type =-2) if the underlying
foreign security is preferred stock. (See Section III.E for more information on the correct reporting of these securities.)
ASSET-BACKED SECURITIES – Securitized interests in a pool of assets, which give the purchaser a claim against
the cash flows generated by the underlying assets. These pools may be derived from mortgage loans, auto loans, credit
card receivables, vehicle and equipment leases, consumer loans, commercial loans or other assets. Include as assetbacked securities (ABS): CMOs, CLOs, CBOs and CDOs. ABS give the holder an undivided interest in the securitized
assets and payments made from the cash flows received by the issuer from the payments of principal and interest from
the borrowers. (ABS do not include securities, such as covered bonds or pfandbriefes, where the security is
collateralized, but the holder of the security does not have a claim of the cash flows generated by the collateral.)
ABS, including stripped ABS, are reported as security type 10 (asset-backed security), except for asset-backed
commercial paper, which is reported as security type 5 (commercial paper).
BEARER BOND – Securities that are not registered in the name of their owner. The owner collects interest and
dividends upon presentation of detachable coupons to a bank or fiduciary agent. These securities are reported as
security type 9 (unstripped bond or note and all other long-term debt).
BRADY BONDS – Collateralized dollar-denominated bonds issued by a foreign government or central bank in exchange
for loans under the Brady Plan. These securities are reported as all other long-term debt (security type = 9).
COMMERCIAL PAPER – A promissory note, either unsecured or backed by assets such as loans or mortgages. They are
usually sold at a discount and customarily have a fixed maturity of 270 days or less. All commercial paper should be
reported as security type = 5 (commercial paper).
COMMINGLED ACCOUNT – An account in which the investment funds of individual clients are pooled, with each
client owning portions of the pooled account. Foreign securities held in U.S.-resident commingled accounts should be
reported. U.S. residents’ ownership of foreign-resident commingled should also be reported.
CONVERTIBLE BOND – A bond that can be exchanged at a set price for equity securities by the holder under
certain conditions. These securities are reported as convertible debt (security type = 7).
COVERED BOND – Also known as Mortgage Bond or Pfandbriefe. A bond that is backed by loans, typically
mortgages, but does not give the purchaser a claim against the cash flows generated by the

46

underlying assets. These securities are reported as security type 9 (unstripped bond or note and all other longterm debt.
CUSTODIAN – A bank or other organization that manages or administers the custody or safekeeping of
stock certificates, debt securities, or other assets for institutional and private investors.
DEPOSITARY RECEIPTS – See American Depositary Receipts (ADR). Related types of depositary receipts, such
as Global Depositary Receipts, are reported in the same manner as ADRs.
DEPOSITORY – An entity that holds securities, either in certificated or uncertificated (dematerialized) form, to
enable the transfer of ownership of securities. Depositories are not necessarily custodians, since they may be
responsible only for registering and settling security transactions.
DERIVATIVE CONTRACT – Financial instrument or other contract with all three of the following
characteristics:
1.
2.

3.

(a) One or more underlyings; (b) one or more notional amounts; and (c) payment provisions. These
terms determine the amount of the settlement or settlements, and, in some cases, whether or not a
settlement is required.
Requires no initial investment, or an initial net investment that is much smaller than would be required
for other types of contracts that would be expected to have a similar response to changes in market
factors.
The terms require or permit net settlement, it can readily be settled net by a means outside the
contract, or it provides for delivery of an asset that puts the recipient in a position not substantially
different from net settlement.

Derivative contracts are excluded from the report. Embedded derivatives that are not bifurcated under ASC
815 (formerly FAS 133) should be reported without separating the embedded derivative from the host contract.
However, if the embedded derivative is bifurcated from the host contract, then the derivative should be
excluded from the report and the host security should be included on the report.
DEVELOPMENT BANKS – Entities owned by national governments and established to promote economic
development of sectors of the economy, such as trade, housing, agriculture, finance and industry. Securities issued
by foreign development banks should be reported.
DIRECT INVESTMENT – Investment in which a resident of one country obtains a degree of influence over the
management of a business enterprise in another country. The criterion used to define direct investment is
ownership of at least 10 percent of the voting securities of an incorporated business enterprise or the equivalent
interest in an unincorporated business enterprise. U.S. direct investment abroad represents the ownership or
control, directly or indirectly, by one U.S. resident (U.S. parent) of at least 10 percent of a foreign business
enterprise, which is called a foreign affiliate. Foreign direct investment in the United States represents the
ownership or control, directly or indirectly, by one foreign resident (foreign parent) of at least 10 percent of a U.S.
business enterprise, which is called a U.S. affiliate. For guidance on how to apply the direct investment criterion in
the case of a limited partnership, see “Limited partnerships and direct investment” below.
Direct investment transactions and positions include the equity that gives rise to control or influence and
intercompany lending, i.e., debt between affiliated enterprises. However, debt between selected affiliated financial
intermediaries is not classified as direct investment because it is not considered to be so strongly connected to the

47

direct investment relationship. The financial intermediaries covered by this case are: (a) deposit-taking
corporations; (b) securities brokers and dealers; and (c) financial and bank holding companies. Insurance companies,
investment funds and other financial intermediaries are not covered by this case.
All direct investment transactions and positions are excluded from the TIC system. These transactions and positions
should instead be reported to the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA). U.S. residents in direct investment
relationships are required to file reports with BEA unless exempt. (See forms and reporting requirements at:
http://www.bea.gov/international /index.htm#surveys.) For U.S. direct investment abroad, call 202-606-5566; for
foreign direct investment into the United States, call 202-606-5577.
Limited partnerships and direct investment - The determination of whether a partner and a limited partnership are
in a direct investment relationship is based on who controls the partnership; it is NOT based on the percentage of
ownership in the partnership’s equity.
In most cases, the general partner is presumed to control a limited partnership and therefore, to be in a direct
investment relationship with the limited partnership. If there is more than one general partner, the partnership is
presumed to be controlled equally by each of the general partners, unless a clause to the contrary is contained in the
partnership agreement.
Limited partners do not normally exercise any control over a limited partnership. Therefore unless a clause to the
contrary is contained in the partnership agreement, limited partners are presumed not to be in a direct investment
relationship with the limited partnership.
Some partnership agreements grant voting rights to limited partners. In such a case, the limited partner could be in
a direct investment relationship with the limited partnership if it met the 10 percent voting rights criterion for direct
investment.
END-INVESTOR – An entity that invests in foreign securities for its own account (for trading, investment, or
any other purpose) or invests on behalf of others, including asset pools, such as managers of mutual funds,
managers of insurance company policyholder assets, and pension fund managers. (See Section II.A for examples
of end-investors.)
FOREIGN RESIDENT (FOREIGN, FOREIGNER) - Any individual, corporation, or other entity legally established
outside of the United States, regardless of the actual center of economic activity of the entity. Thus, a
corporation incorporated outside the United States is a foreign resident even if it has no physical presence
outside the United States. Foreigners/foreign residents include:
1.

Individuals, including citizens of the United States, residing outside the United States. (This includes
individuals that have filed an IRS Form W-8, indicating that the individual is a non-resident alien.
However, if an IRS form is not available, the mailing address can be used to determine residency.)

2.

Entities that have filed an IRS Form W-8, indicating that the individual or entity is a nonresident alien or
foreign entity not subject to certain United States information return reporting or to backup
withholding rules.

3.

Any corporation or other organization legally established outside of the United States, including
branches, subsidiaries and other affiliates of U. S. entities located abroad.

4.

Foreign governments and any subdivision, agency or instrumentality thereof, including all foreign
official nonbanking institutions, even if located in the United States (e.g., an embassy, consulate, or
other diplomatic establishment of a foreign country). (However, all U.S.-resident subsidiaries of foreign

48

corporations, including government-owned foreign corporations, are U.S. residents.)
5.

International or regional organizations or subordinate or affiliated agencies thereof, created by treaty or
convention between sovereign states, even if located in the United States, including the
Internation al Ban k for Recon stru ction an d Develop ment (IBRD or World Bank), the
International Monetary Fund (IMF), and the United N ations (UN ). (See App endix E for a list of
intern ation al an d regiona l organizations.)

FOREIGN-RESIDENT CUSTODIAN – A custodian organized under the laws of a country other than the United States,
including a foreign affiliate of a U.S. custodian. Reporters should determine the residence of a custodian according

of the custodian's parent firm, and not according to the location of the custodian's operations center.
FOREIGN SUBCUSTODIAN – A foreign institution that holds in safekeeping foreign securities for a U.S.-resident
custodian.

investors: private and public pension funds; mutual funds, country funds, exchange traded funds, unit investment
trusts, collective-investment trusts, and any other similarly pooled, commingled investment funds; insurance
companies; foundations; institutions of higher learning; government-sponsored enterprises and
other independently acting government agencies; financial and nonfinancial corporations; investment advisors;
trusts and estates; and private individuals. U.S. ownership of shares of foreign-resident funds are reported as funds
(security type= 3), regardless of the types of securities held by the fund. Foreign securities held in U.S.-resident
funds should also be reported. (See Section III.0 for the correct reporting of funds.)
INVESTMENT TRUST SHARE – A share of a company bound by a trust deed issued in registered form, formed to
invest in specific types of securities. Shares in an investment trust can usually be bought and sold only through the
stock exchange. Sometimes referred to as a 'closed-end' fund. Investment trust shares are reported as fund shares
(security type =3), regardless of the types of securities held by the trust. U.S. ownership of shares of foreign-resident
investment trust are reported as funds (security type= 3), regardless of the types of securities held by the trust.
Foreign securities held in U.S.-resident investment trusts or their foreign equivalents should also be reported. (See
Section III.0 for the correct reporting of funds.)
LONG-TERM – No contractual maturity or an original maturity of more than one year.
LONG-TERM DEBT SECURITY – Debt security with no contractual maturity or with an original maturity of
more than one year.
NATIONALIZED BANK – Institution owned by a foreign central government that is classified as a bank in its
own country. A nationalized bank is considered to be an official organization only if it also performs the
functions of a central bank.
NEGOTIABLE CERTIFICATES OF DEPOSIT – A negotiable (transferable) instrument or deposit in book entry
form evidenced by a receipt or similar acknowledgement issued by a bank, which provides on its face that the
amount of such deposit is payable to bearer or any specified person (e.g., deposit notes, bank notes). These
negotiable money market instruments should be reported as security type 6.
SECURITY – Any bill, note, bond, debenture, instrument representing ownership of equity in a company,
negotiable money market instrument, or similar instrument that is commonly referred to as a security,

49

whether or not is tradeable. Do not include loans, even if tradeable. See Section III.A for a list of reportable
foreign securities.
SETTLEMENT DATE – The date a security is delivered to the purchaser.
SETTLEMENT DATE ACCOUNTING – Under settlement date accounting, the purchase and sale of assets
are not recorded until the settlement date. Settlement date accounting should be used for purposes of this
report.
SHORT-TERM – Original maturity of one year or less.
SHORT-TERM DEBT SECURITY – Debt security, including negotiable money market instruments, with an
original maturity of one year or less.
STRUCTURED NOTE OR BOND – An over-the-counter financial instrument created specifically to meet the
needs of one or a small number of investors. Some of the more common structures include: step-up
bonds, index amortizing notes, dual index notes, deleveraged bonds, range bonds, and inverse floaters. These
securities are reportable debt securities.
SUBORDINATED DEBT – A security evidencing debt that the holder agrees to rank after senior creditors, but
before shareholders, in a bankruptcy.
SUBSIDIARY – A company in which another company (parent) owns 50 percent or more of the voting

Palmyra Atoll, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and Wake Island.
UNIT INVESTMENT TRUST – A fixed portfolio of securities that are assembled by an underwriter sponsor and
upon completion of the underwriting, are deposited with an independent trustee. Unit investment trusts have a
definite termination date, usually between 6 months and 10 years. U.S. ownership of shares of foreign-resident
unit investment trusts are reported as fund shares (security type = 3), regardless of the types of securities in
held by the trust. Foreign securities held in U.S.-resident unit investment trusts should also be reported. (See
Section III.0 for the correct reporting of unit investment trusts.)
U.S. RESIDENT – Any individual, corporation, or other entity incorporated or legally established in the United
States, including branches, subsidiaries and affiliates of foreign entities located in the United States.
Corporations incorporated in the United States are considered to be U.S. residents even if they have no

U.S.-RESIDENT CUSTODIAN – A custodian that is resident in the United States, including a
U.S.-resident affiliate of a foreign custodian.
U.S.-RESIDENT END-INVESTOR – An entity that is resident in the United States, including a U.S. affiliate of a
foreign end-investor, that either invests for its own account (for trading, investment and other purposes) or on

mutual fund, managers of assets held for insurance company policyholders, and managers of pension and
endowment funds.

51

ZERO-COUPON BOND – Bonds that do not provide interest payments. Zero coupon bonds usually have an
issue price well below 100% of the face value with repayment on maturity at face value or par. The investors'
return is the difference between the issue price and redemption value. These securities are reported as security
type 8 (zero coupon & stripped security).
