Securities Held on the Fedwire Securities Service

AGENCY: Bureau of the Fiscal Service, Fiscal Service, Treasury.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Department of the Treasury (Treasury) is announcing a new 
process to establish a fee schedule applicable to transfers of U.S. 
Treasury book-entry securities maintained on the Fedwire Securities 
Service (Fedwire) that will start on or after January 1, 2023.

DATES: Applicable January 1, 2023.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Janeene Matias, Bureau of the Fiscal 
Service, 304-480-6321.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Effective January 1, 2023, the Federal 
Reserve will be responsible for establishing the fee structure for the 
transfer of Treasury book-entry securities maintained on Fedwire, 
consistent with section 11A of the Federal Reserve Act and with Federal 
Reserve polices. This change, which applies to both the basic fee and 
off-line surcharge, will result in a consistent fee structure for 
transfers of Treasury and all other securities issued over Fedwire. 
Specific fee amounts will be set out in a separate Federal Register 
notice published by the Federal Reserve and will also be available on 
the Federal Reserve's FRBservices.org website.\1\

    Treasury does not charge a fee for account maintenance, the 
stripping and reconstitution of Treasury securities, the wires 
associated with original issues, or interest and redemption payments. 
Treasury currently absorbs these costs and will continue to do so 
unless otherwise announced.
    Authority: 31 CFR 357.45.

Commissioner, Bureau of the Fiscal Service.
