Acceptance of Bonds Secured by Government Obligations in Lieu of Bonds With Sureties

Resumo

The Financial Management Service (FMS) is issuing this final rule which governs the acceptance of bonds secured by Government obligations in lieu of bonds with sureties. This revision adds references to the new rule of the Bureau of the Public Debt (BPD), codified at 31 CFR part 380, governing collateral acceptability and valuation. The revision is necessary because the responsibility for determining the acceptability and valuation of collateral was recently transferred from FMS to BPD.
