INSTRUCTIONS FOR PREPARATION OF

Government Securities Dealers Reports
FR 2004

I. GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
A. ORGANIZATION OF THE INSTRUCTION
BOOK
This instruction book covers the FR 2004 Primary Government Securities Dealers Reports. It is divided into the
following sections:
Section I (General Instructions) - The general instructions describe the overall reporting requirements.
Section II (What to Report) - This section describes the
types of reportable securities.
Section III (Report Specific Instructions) - This section
describes the specific reporting requirements for each
FR 2004 report and line. These instructions and definitions supplement the information in the general instructions.
The forms and instructions are available on the Board’s
website at: http://www.federalreserve.gov/reportforms/
Additional information, including the SI and WI Guide
Sheets, is also available on the Federal Reserve Bank of
New York’s (FRBNY) website: http://www.newyorkfed.
org/markets/primarydealers.html
B. PURPOSE OF THE FR 2004 REPORTS
The FR 2004 reports collect weekly and daily position,
transaction, financing, and fails data of the primary
government securities dealers (primary dealers) in U.S.
government securities and other selected fixed-income
securities. These data provide critical support to the
Federal Reserve in fulfilling important responsibilities,
including monitoring technical developments in U.S.
government securities markets, conducting open market
operations, and acting as fiscal agent for the U.S. Department of the Treasury (U.S. Treasury).

C. ADMINISTRATIVE ISSUES
Authority
The FR 2004 reports are authorized by law (12 U.S.C. §§
248(a)(2), 353-359, and 461(c)). These reports are
required to obtain the benefit of primary dealer status.
Confidentiality
Individual primary dealer data are regarded as confidential under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), 5
U.S.C. § 552, and are treated as such by the Federal
Reserve System. Individual reporting entity data reported
on the FR 2004 reports will not be published or otherwise
publicly disclosed. Aggregate data derived from these
reports that are published or otherwise publicly disclosed
will not reveal the identity of any individual reporting
entity. If it should be determined subsequently that any
information collected on these reports must be released,
primary dealers will be notified.
Data from the FR2004 series may be made available to
the Inter-agency Working Group for Treasury market
surveillance, which includes the Department of the Treasury, the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, and the Federal
Reserve Bank of New York.
Paperwork Reduction Act
The FR 2004 reports have been reviewed and approved
by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) in
accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
and assigned OMB control number 7100-0003. The
estimated average burden associated with this collection
of information, per response, is 3 hours for the FR 2004A,

averages include the time to gather and maintain data in
the required form, to review instructions, and to complete
the information collection. The amount of time required
to complete these reports will vary depending on the
amount of data to report. Comments concerning the
accuracy of this burden estimate and suggestions for
reducing burden should be directed to:
Secretary, Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System
20th Street and Constitution Avenue, N.W.
Washington, DC 20551
No person is required to respond to any collection of
information from the Federal Reserve System unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control number.
Requests for Revised Data
FRBNY staff review data submitted on the FR 2004
reports. As a result of their review and analytical procedures, FRBNY staff may ask reporters to explain data
conditions or submit revisions. Since these data are
extremely time-sensitive, reporters should respond as
quickly as possible to these requests. Revisions must be
submitted via the Reporting Central system.
When cancels and corrections to prior period FR 2004B
data occur, they may be corrected by reducing or increasing the next period’s transactions by the amount of the
error. The revisions cannot be applied to the next period’s
transactions if the cancellation or correction from the
prior period results in a negative amount in the next
period’s transactions. In that case, revised prior period
data should be submitted.
Data Retention
In accordance with Federal Reserve Banks Operating
Circular No. 5, the reporting Institution must maintain a
hard copy duplicate of all required statistical or other
bank regulatory data (such as FR 2004) that it submits
electronically, unless, consistent with generally applicable revisions to the requirements for submitting the
particular report, the Institution is no longer required to
retain the hard copy. The hard copy must contain an
official signature certifying that the data contained therein
is correct, must be retained by the Institution for at least
five years, and is subject to inspection by the Reserve
Bank.

Officer Declaration and Signature
Each FR 2004 report (A, B, C, SI, SD, WI, FA, FB, FC,
and FM) must be signed by a senior officer of the primary
dealer that has managerial responsibilities for the internal
controls for financial statements or the trading operations. This includes the CEO, CFO, or equivalent officer
with these responsibilities. The signing officer is expected
to notify the FRBNY if the officer becomes aware of any
material inaccuracies in reported data.
Either the signature page of the FRBNY-supplied sample
set of report forms, a photocopy of this signature page, or
a copy of the signature page from the primary dealer’s
report preparation software should be used to fulfill the
signature and declaration requirement. This page should
be attached to the printout placed in the primary dealer’s
official files for a period of time that is consistent with the
retention of the FR 2004 reports. In addition, a copy of
the attestations must be submitted annually for the last
as-of date of each year to the FRBNY.

D. WHO MUST REPORT
Reporting Dealers
Respondents to the reports are primary dealers. The FR
2004 reports are required to obtain the benefit of primary
dealer status. The Federal Reserve Bank of New York
trades U.S. government and select other securities with
designated primary dealers, which include banks and
securities broker-dealers. A list of primary dealers can be
found at
https://www.newyorkfed.org/markets/primarydealers.html
Consolidation Rules
For purposes of these reports, data should be reported for
the entire legal entity that functions as the primary dealer,
including any subsidiaries that it consolidates in its
regulatory reports (e.g., FOCUS or FOG). A primary
dealer that is a branch or agency of a foreign banking
organization should reflect the activity of the foreign
bank, not just the branch or agency that is specifically
designated a primary dealer, unless otherwise agreed
to by FRBNY.
Unless specified in these instructions, all activity and
balances between consolidated entities included in the
consolidation described above should be eliminated.
Positions, transactions, financing, and settlement fails that occur
between the branch or agency that is specifically designated as a
primary dealer and the head office of the foreign bank or other
banking branches or agencies of the foreign banking
organization ( both domestic and foreign) should be eliminated

General Instructions
in the consolidation. Activities and balances with
counterparties not included in the consolidation
described above are external and should be
GEN-2

reported accordingly.
Positions, transactions, financing, and fails that occur
with unconsolidated affiliates and subsidiaries are reported
as third-party transactions. Do not report internal trades,
including trades between desks or departments.

Maturity Classifications
Report U.S. Treasury, Corporate, and State and Municipal securities in the appropriate maturity classification
row on the FR 2004A based on remaining maturity. As
the remaining maturity decreases, the security is shifted
from one maturity classification to another. If the shift
occurs on a Wednesday, categorize the security in the
new maturity classification row on that Wednesday’s
report.
When-issued securities should be categorized based on
the time remaining to maturity calculated from the issue
date (e.g., a when-issued, 2-year U.S. Treasury note
should be reported in line 1b, U.S. Treasury Securities:
Coupons due in less than or equal to 2 years).
STRIPS and other stripped securities should be categorized based on the time remaining to the payment date for
each IO component, and to the redemption date for the
PO component. For example, report a stripped 30-year
U.S. Treasury bond with 60 coupon payments (two
interest payments per year; 60 IO components) as follows:

FR 2004B

Accounting Rules

Counterparty Categories

Report outright transactions of fixed principal securities
at principal value, excluding accrued interest. Principal
value is the face value purchased or sold times the price.
For outright TIPS securities, principal value is the original issuance par amount (unadjusted for inflation) times
the price times the index ratio.

Column 1 With Inter-Dealer Brokers

Transactions on the FR 2004B are reported using trade
date accounting.
Report on a cumulative basis for the entire report week.
Do not net purchases and sales.

A listing of inter-dealer brokers are listed in the Fixed
Income Clearing Corporation’s (FICC) government securities division and mortgage-backed securities division
member directories. The directory can be obtained from:
http://www.dtcc.com/customer/directories/ficc/
ficc_gov.php
http://www.dtcc.com/customer/directories/ficc/
ficc_mbs.php

• Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS).

• Brokers with an asterisk next to their name are interdealer brokers. These listings are included for use as a
guide and should not be considered an exhaustive list
of all inter-dealer brokers. Dealers should look through
the organizational structure of counterpartys when
dealing with inter-dealer brokers not specified on the
FICC membership directories to identify affiliate firms
designated as inter-dealer brokers that provide clearing
services for the counterparty as well as inter-dealer
brokers that are not FICC members. Include trades
with these institutions in column 1 on the FR 2004B.

• Purchases of securities by a reporting entity from a
customer to complete the buyback process. However,
exclude buyback offers accepted by the U.S. Treasury,
whether for the dealer’s own behalf or on behalf of
their customers.

• Trades made through inter-dealer brokers where the
counterparty is revealed after the conclusion of the
trade (give-up trades) should continue to be reported as
transactions with inter-dealer brokers and not as transactions with others.

Reportable Transactions
• Outright transactions and forward transactions of fixed
principal securities.
• Outright transactions and forward transactions in Treasury Floating Rate Notes (FRNs).

• When-issued securities.
• Dollar rolls involving To Be Announced (TBA) securities, for which the underlying security does not yet
exist (e.g., forward MBS).
• Transactions executed through electronic trading platforms for the reporting dealer’s own accounts. However, do not report transactions executed to settle trades
for electronic trading platforms, where the reporter
does not take a position.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE PREPARATION OF THE

Weekly Report of Dealer Financing
and Fails
FR 2004C

Accounting Rules
Securities Financings - Report repurchase and reverse
repurchase agreement financing (including General Collateral Financing (GCF) settled using FICC) as well as
other collateralized financing that is outstanding as-of the
FR 2004C report date using settlement date accounting.
A repurchase agreement is a contract involving the
‘‘sale’’ of financial assets by one party to another, subject
to an agreement by the ‘‘seller’’ to repurchase the assets
at a specified date or in specified circumstances. A
reverse repurchase agreement (also known as a resale
agreement) is a contract involving the ‘‘purchase’’ of
financial assets by one party from another, subject to an
agreement by the ‘‘purchaser’’ to resell the assets at a
specified date or in specified circumstances. Include all
financing arrangements where the underlying collateral
are:
• U.S. Treasury Securities including TIPS, STRIPS, and
Floating Rate Notes (FRNs).
• Federal Agency and GSE Securities (excluding MBS)
• Federal Agency and GSE Residential and Commercial
MBS
• Corporate Debt including commercial paper

Report on a gross basis; do not net borrowings against
loans. (FIN 41 does not apply to this report.)
Settlement Fails - Report settlement fails from cash and
financing transactions, including aged fails, at principal
value, excluding accrued interest. Report financing transactions that fail at the amount that was to be paid or
received on the day the failed trade was to be settled.
Report on a cumulative basis (including weekends and
holidays) for the reporting period only. Failed transactions that are outstanding two days or more should be
summed each day they are outstanding during the reporting period. Also include in line 6d (Federal Agency and
GSE mortgage-backed securities fails) TBA MBS when
the settlement date is delayed beyond the contractual
settlement date.
Do not add fails that were outstanding in a prior reporting
period to the cumulative total calculated for the current
reporting period. For example, report a fail of $1 million
that began on Tuesday in reporting period 1 and is
delivered on Friday of reporting period 2 as:
• $2 million for reporting period 1; and
• $1 million (Thursday only) for reporting period 2.

• Asset-backed Securities
• Equities

Types of Financing

• All Other dollar denominated, debt instruments used as
collateral including non-Agency or GSE-issued MBS,
CMOs, REMICS, and State and Municipal securities.
Do not include financing arrangements where the
underlying collateral consists of international securities, whole loans, or money market instruments such as
negotiable CDs and bankers acceptances.

Line-by-Line Instructions
For each item, report repurchase and reverse repurchase
agreements in columns 1-21 classified by the
clearing/settlement arrangement for each transaction.
For bilateral repurchase and reverse repurchase
agreements, dealers are instructed to report specific and
general transactions separately. Specific transactions are
transactions where collateral is identified before the rate
is agreed to by the counterparties, as in a bid for or
offer of a particular CUSIP. General transactions are
transactions where the parties agree to borrow/lend any
member of a class of securities (such as ‘‘a Treasury

issue’’ or ‘‘a Treasury issue no longer than 10 years
to maturity’’), where the specific collateral in the
transaction to be delivered pursuant to the agreement
is identified after the class and rate are negotiated.
Columns 1-6 Uncleared bilateral. An uncleared
bilateral financing arrangement is conducted outside
any central clearing firm or platform.
The
counterparties to the transaction are responsible for
the exchange of securities and funds. Report specific,
uncleared bilateral repurchase and reverse repurchase
agreements in columns 1, 2, and 3 and general,
uncleared bilateral repurchase and reverse repurchase
agreements in column 4, 5, and 6.
Columns 7-15 Cleared bilateral. A cleared bilateral
financing arrangement is negotiated between two
counterparties and then subsequently submitted to a
central clearing bank or platform for settlement (e.g.,
FICC DVP). Report specific, cleared bilateral
repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements in
columns 7-9 and general, cleared bilateral repurchase
and reverse repurchase agreements in column 10-12.

Accounting Rules

Row Definitions

Report position and transaction data on the FR 2004SI at
the original issuance par amount. Positions on the FR
2004SI are reported using settlement date accounting.
Long and short positions in the same issue should be
reported net by CUSIP, therefore, a negative value can be
reported in column 4 (net settled position).

Submit the securities on the FR 2004 SI in the same order
each week. Fixed principal securities should be listed
first in ascending maturity order followed by the TIPS
securities, also in ascending order. Based on the U.S.
Treasury’s current offering schedule, the reported securities are:

However, transactions reported on the FR 2004SI are
reported using trade date accounting. Report on a cumulative basis. Do not net purchases and sales.

• Line # 1 - 2-year U.S. Treasury note

Report financing data, including security vs. security
exchanges, at the original issuance par amount of the
collateral. Report financing that is outstanding as-of the
report date using trade date accounting. Report on a gross
basis FIN 41 does not apply to this report).

• Line # 2 - 3-year U.S. Treasury note
• Line # 3 - 5-year U.S. Treasury note
• Line # 4 - 7-year U.S. Treasury note
• Line # 5 - 10-year U.S. Treasury note
• Line # 6 - 20-year U.S. Treasury bond
• Line # 7 - 30-year U.S. Treasury bond

Reportable Securities

• Line # 8 - 5-year TIPS note

Report position, transaction, financing, and fails data for
the most recently issued (i.e., on-the-run) U.S. Treasury
securities, including Floating Rate Notes (FRNs) and
TIPS, for each maturity classification on the FR 2004SI.
Once a when-issued security has been issued, it replaces
the security with the same maturity classification on the
FR 2004SI and the security stops being reported on the
FR 2004 WI. For example, a 2-year U.S. Treasury note
that has been issued is no longer reported on the FR
2004WI and begins to be reported on the FR 2004SI as of
close of business the first Wednesday after its issuance.
This 2-year U.S. Treasury note will continue to be
reported on the FR 2004SI until a 2-year U.S. Treasury
note is newly issued or re-opened by the U.S. Treasury.

• Line # 9 - 10-year TIPS note

The current list of securities reported on the FR 2004SI is
maintained on the FR 2004SI Guide Sheet, which is
available on the FRBNY website at: http://
www.newyorkfed.org/markets/primarydealers.html

Weekly Report of Specific Issues
FR 2004SI January 2022

• Line # 10 - 30-year TIPS bond
• Line # 11 - Treasury Floating Rate Notes
(any maturity)
Column 1 Security and Rate
Report the most recently issued on-the-run security for
each maturity classification of U.S. Treasury fixed income,
floating rate, and TIPS notes and bonds. Identify securities by coupon and maturity date in yyyymmdd format.
Columns 2 through 3 Outright Cumulative
Transactions
Report data using trade date accounting at the original
issuance par amount. Report gross outright purchases and
sales on a cumulative basis for each reportable security
for the business days since the previous report (Thursday
SI-1

through Wednesday). Do not net purchases and sales.
Exclude forward transactions.
When a new issue is added to the report, include the
cumulative transactions in that issue since the closing
date of the previous FR 2004SI, even though some of
these transactions may have been reported on the FR
2004WI. Except for holiday weeks, you should report five
days of transactions for each issue on the FR 2004SI.
For example, if a new 5-year U.S. Treasury note is issued
on Tuesday, report the transactions in that issue for the
full Thursday through Wednesday reporting period, even
though the transactions on Thursday through Monday
were already reported on the FR 2004WI.
When a re-opened security is added to the report, include
the cumulative transactions in that security since its issue
date plus the cumulative transactions in the originally
issued security since the closing date of the previous
FR 2004SI. Therefore, transactions reported on the FR
2004WI for the re-opened security will not be reported
on the FR 2004SI.
For example, if a re-opened 10-year U.S. Treasury note is
issued on Monday, report the transactions in that issue on
Monday through Wednesday and add to it the transactions in the originally issued 10-year U.S. Treasury note
on Thursday and Friday.

Types of Financing
• Columns 5 through 8 Securities In
Report contractual arrangements or the pledge of securities to be received from counterparties. Report the following on the FR 2004SI:
• Reverse repurchase agreements including those with
the FRBNY. Include tri-party reverse repurchase agreements, GCF, bilateral, and HIC agreements.
Include dollar reverse repurchase agreements, matched
sale-purchase agreements, or any form of synthetic
equivalents.
• Securities borrowed, which are contractual agreements
in which securities are borrowed from counterparties,
including a Federal Reserve Bank. Report the funds
that have been lent. If only securities are exchanged,
report the fair (market) value of the securities.
• Securities received as pledge, which are securities that
were received by the reporting entity as a pledge
against a loan of securities. Report the fair (market)
value of the securities.
• Collateral received from counterparties as a result of a
margin payment, margin call or other type of similar
collateral deposit, or collateral held for another financial contract (e.g., derivatives).

Column 4 Net Settled Positions

• Columns 9 through 12 Securities Out

Report data using settlement date accounting valued at
the original issuance par amount. Long and short positions in the same issue should be reported net by CUSIP;
therefore, a negative value can be reported in this column. Report a trade arranged for settlement on or before
the closing date of the report as settled, even if a fail
occurs. If such a trade fails to clear, report it as a fail and
report it as part of the net settled position. Exclude
positions in forward contracts.

Report contractual arrangements or the pledge of securities to be delivered to counterparties. Report the following on the FR 2004SI.

Columns 5 through 12 Gross Financing

• Securities lent, which are contractual agreements in
which securities are lent to counterparties, including a
Federal Reserve Bank. Report the funds that have been
borrowed. If only securities are exchanged, report the
fair (market) value of the securities.

Report data, including when only securities are exchanged,
using trade date accounting at the original issuance par
amount of the collateral. Report on a gross basis; do not
net borrowings against loans even if the counterparty,
term, and security are identical (FIN 41 does not apply to
this report).

• Repurchase agreements including those with the
FRBNY. Include tri-party repurchase agreements, GCF,
bilateral, and HIC agreements.
Include dollar repurchase agreements, matched salepurchase agreements, or any form of synthetic equivalents.

of securities. Report the fair (market) value of the
securities.
• Collateralized loans, which are the reporting entity’s
cash borrowings that have been secured by securities.
Report the cash received from a loan.
• Collateral delivered to counterparties (e.g., a clearing
corporation) as a result of a margin payment, margin
call or other type of similar collateral deposit, or
collateral sent for another financial contract (e.g.,
derivatives).
Columns 5, 6, 9, and 10 Specific Transactions
Report as ‘‘specific transactions,’’ transactions where
collateral is identified before the rate is agreed to by the
counterparties, as in a bid for or offer of a particular
CUSIP.

Columns 13 and 14 Fails
Report data at the original issuance par amount of the
collateral. Do not report on a cumulative basis. Report
failed transactions and failed financing transactions that
occurred on the as-of date only.
Column 15 FRBNY Security ID
The FRBNY security ID is the number of years of the
original term to maturity for fixed principal securities. To
distinguish reporting of TIPS securities, which have the
same original maturity number of years as the fixed
principal securities, 50 should be added to the number of
years of the original term to maturity. Re-opened securities retain the same FRBNY security ID as the new issue.
Based on the U.S. Treasury’s current offering schedule,
the reported FRBNY security ID will be:
• Line #1 - 2

Columns 7, 8, 11 and 12 General Transactions
Report as ‘‘general transactions,’’ transactions where the
parties agree to borrow/lend any member of a class of
securities (such as ‘‘a Treasury issue’’ or ‘‘a Treasury
issue no longer than 10 years to maturity’’), where the
specific collateral in the transaction to be delivered
pursuant to the agreement is identified after the class and
rate are negotiated. Tri-party and GCF repos are ‘‘general
transactions’’ as is a deliver versus payment repo where
the collateral is identified after the rate, term, and class
are agreed upon. In ‘‘general transactions’’ the lender of
collateral has some latitude in its choice of collateral
delivered.

Re-Opened Security
Report net outright positions, net forward financing
commitments, and cumulative outright transactions on
both the previously issued security and the when-issued
security as of close of business the prior day. If there is an
existing position for the previously issued security in
inventory, this position should be included in the net
outright position column on day 1.

Daily Report of Dealer Activity in Treasury Financing
FR 2004WI January 2022

Column 2 Net Outright Positions
Report net outright positions in the when-issued security
and the outstanding security if the U.S. Treasury has
re-opened an issue. Include positions for when-issued
delivery, delivery dates after issuance, or in the case of
the outstanding security, any delivery date. Long and
short positions should be reported net by security; therefore, a negative value can be reported in column 2 (net
outright positions) of the FR 2004WI.
Include reporting entity allotments (securities received
through auction as a result of reporting entities bidding
for their own accounts) from the U.S. Treasury as a gross
long position on the auction date only. Exclude customer
awards of securities from net outright positions.

Column 3 Net Forward Financing
Commitments
A forward commitment is a financing transaction (as
defined for the FR 2004C) that is scheduled to begin on a
date after the report date. For example, an agreement to
finance at issuance. Report any forward financing commitments involving a re-opened or new when-issued
security even if no outright position is held. When the
U.S. Treasury re-opens an issue, report the net forward
financing commitments for both the security being traded
as a when-issue security and for the security being traded
on-the-run. Long and short positions should be reported

ties received from bids placed on behalf of a customer by
a reporting entity).

A repurchase agreement or commitment to lend the
security should be considered a short position. A reverse
repurchase agreement or commitment to borrow securities should be considered a long position. Exclude reporting entity allotments and customer awards (securities
received from bids placed on behalf of a customer by a
reporting entity).

Column 4 and 5 Cumulative Outright
Transactions
Report gross purchases and sales in the appropriate

if the U.S. Treasury has re-opened a security. Report only
the transactions executed on the reporting date. Do not
report cumulative transactions across reporting dates. Do
not net purchases and sales.

Appendix A
Comparisons Between and Within Reports
There are general comparisons among the FR 2004 reports. However, if your data does not correspond with the
comparisons, there may be acceptable explanations for the differences.
FR 2004A vs. FR 2004B
Changes in positions (between two weeks) reported on the FR 2004A and should be less than the level of transactions
reported on the current week FR 2004B.
FR 2004A vs. FR 2004SI and FR 2004WI
Positions reported on the FR 2004A should be greater than or equal to the sum of net settled positions reported on the
FR 2004SI and FR 2004WI.
FR 2004B vs. FR 2004SI and FR 2004WI
Transactions reported on the FR 2004B should be greater than or equal to the sum of cumulative outright transactions
reported on the FR 2004SI and FR 2004WI.
FR 2004C vs. FR 2004SI
U.S. Treasury financing and fails data reported on the FR 2004C should be greater than or equal to U.S. Treasury
financing and fails data reported on the FR 2004SI.
FR 2004SI (comparisons of column 4, columns 5 through 12, and columns 13 and 14)
The net settled position reported in column 4 should be equal to the net financing and fails data reported in columns 5
through 14.
The difference between uses of financing (columns 5 through 8) and sources of financing (columns 9 through 12) should
be equal to the difference between the net settled position (column 4) and net fails data (columns 13 and 14).
FR 2004SD (comparisons of column 4, columns 5 through 12, and columns 13 and 14)
The net settled position reported in column 4 should be equal to the net financing and fails data reported in columns 5
through 14.
The difference between uses of financing (columns 5 through 8) and sources of financing (columns 9 through 12) should
be equal to the difference between the net settled position (column 4) and net fails data (columns 13 and 14).
FR 2004SD vs. FR 2004SI
When the same security is reported on the FR 2004SD and the FR 2004SI, the position, financing, and fails data
submitted as-of Wednesday for the FR 2004SD should match the position, financing, and fails data submitted for that
same Wednesday on the FR 2004SI for that specific security.
When the same security is reported on the FR 2004SD and the FR 2004SI, the transaction data submitted as-of
Wednesday for the FR 2004SD should be less than or equal to the transaction data submitted for that same Wednesday
on the FR 2004SI for that specific security.
FR 2004WI (comparison of column 2 and columns 4 and 5)
Net outright positions should reconcile between daily report dates. Current net outright positions should equal the prior
day’s net outright position plus the current day’s net outright transactions.
