Book-Entry Regulation of Federal National Mortgage Association
T o A ll Banking Institutions, and Others Concerned,
in the Second Federal R eserve D istrict:

In our Circular No. 7303, dated December 21, 1973, we reported on the progress
being made in the application of the expanded book-entry program to Treasury and
eligible Government securities and in the development of the telegraphic securitiestransfer procedure. Treasury securities and securities issued by the Farmers Home
Administration (Certificates of Beneficial Ownership), Banks for Cooperatives, Federal
Home Loan Banks, Federal Intermediate Credit Banks, Federal Land Banks, and the
United States Postal Service are eligible to be held by Federal Reserve Banks for member
banks in book-entry form.
In addition to the Agencies enumerated above, a book-entry regulation for the Fed­
eral National Mortgage Association was published in the Federal Register on March 26,
1974, effective April 25, 1974. In accordance with that regulation, eligible securities issued
by the Federal National Mortgage Association deposited with this Bank for safekeeping
on or after May 3, 1974 will be converted into book-entry form.
For your information, the Federal National Mortgage Association was partitioned,
effective September 1, 1968, into two separate and distinct corporations — the Federal
National Mortgage Association and the Government National Mortgage Association.
Certain obligations of the Federal National Mortgage Association, including mortgagebacked bonds guaranteed by the Government National Mortgage Association, but exclud­
ing Federal National Mortgage Association short-term discount notes and obligations
convertible into common stock, are eligible for the book-entry program.
Prior to September 1, 1968, the participation certificates of the Government Mort­
gage Liquidation Trust, the Federal Assets Liquidation Trust, and the Federal Assets
Financing Trust were obligations of the Federal National Mortgage Association. Such
participation certificates, although engraved with the name of the Federal National
Mortgage Association, became the direct obligations of the Government National Mort­
gage Association on September 1, 1968 and are not yet eligible for the book-entry program.
To reflect the application of the book-entry procedure to Federal National Mortgage
Association securities, we are enclosing copies of the following documents:
(a ) A ppendix B, “ Federal Agencies with B ook-E ntry R egulations,” Revised A p ril 25, 1974,
to Operating Circular No. 21.
(b ) A ppen dix C, “ Correlation Table of Treasury and A gen cy B ook-E ntry Regulations,”
Revised A p ril 25, 1974, to Operating Circular No. 21.

The above securities are also eligible for telegraphic transfer to other Federal
Reserve Districts. Delivery of Federal Agency securities by wire in other Districts
can be made only to book-entry accounts maintained in the names of member banks.

President.
