ACTION: Final rule; determination of applicability of regulations. AGENCY: The List of Marginable OTC Stocks (OTC List) is comprised of stocks traded over-the-counter (OTC) in the United States that have been determined by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System to be subject to the margin requirements under certain Federal Reserve regulations. The List of Foreign Margin Stocks (Foreign List) represents foreign equity securities that have met the Board’s eligibility criteria under Regulation T. The OTC List and the Foreign List are published four times a year by the Board. This document sets forth additions to or deletions from the previous OTC List. There are no additions to or deletions from the previous Foreign List. Both Lists were last published on April 27,1992 and effective on May 11,1992. EFFECTIVE DATE: August 10, 1992. SUMMARY: FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Peggy Wolffrum, Securities Regulation Analyst, Division of Banking Supervision and Regulation, (202) 452 2781, Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, W ashington, DC 20551. For the hearing impaired only, contact Dorothea Thompson, Telecommunications Device for the Deaf (TDD) at (202) 452-3544. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Listed below are additions to or deletions from the OTC List. This supersedes the last OTC List which w as effective May 11, 33102 Federal Register / Vol. 57, No. 144 / Monday, July 27, 1992 / Rules and Regulations 1992. Additions and deletions to the OTC List were last published on April 27,1992 (57 FR 15220), A copy of the complete OTC List is available from the Federal Reserve Banks. The OTC List includes those stocks that meet the criteria in Regulations G. T and U (12 CFR parts 207, 220 and 221, respectively). This determination also affects the applicability of Regulation X (12 CFR part 224). These stocks have the degree of national investor interest, the depth and breadth of market, and the availability of information respecting the stock and its issuer to w arrant regulation in the same fashion as exchange-traded securities. The OTC List also includes any OTC stock designated under a Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) rule as qualified for trading in the national market system (NMS security). Additional OTC stocks may be designated as NMS securities in the interim between the Board's quarterly publications. They will become automatically marginable upon the effective date of their NMS designation. The names of these stocks are available at the Board and the SEC and will be incorporated into the Board's next quarterly publication of the OTC List. There are no new additions, deletions or changes to the Board’s Foreign List, which was last published April 27,1992 (57 FR 15220) and effective May 11,1992, This notice serves as repubUcation of that List with a new effective date of August 10,1992. The Foreign List includes those securities that meet the criteria in Regulation T and are eligible for margin treatment at broker-dealers on the same basis as domestic margin securities. A copy of the complete Foreign List is available from the Federal Reserve Banks. 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 Lists specified in 12 CFR 207.6 (a) and (b), 220.17 (a), (b), (c) and (d), and 221.7 (a) and (b). 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 am endment 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 these Lists as soon as possible. The Board has responded to a request by the public and allowed a two-week delay before the Lists are effective.
