SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On
October 1, 1985, the Department of the
Treasury established a fee structure for
the transfer of Treasury book-entry
securities maintained on NBES.
Based on the latest review of bookentry costs and volumes Treasury will
increase its basic fee from the current
levels in effect. Effective January 2,
2007, the basic fee will increase from
$.22 to $.26 for each Treasury securities
transfer and reversal sent and received,
changed from fees in effect since CY
2006. The surcharge for an off-line
Treasury book-entry transfer will be
$33.00, unchanged from CY 2006.
The basic transfer fee assessed to both
sends and receives is reflective of costs
associated with the processing of a
security transfer. The off-line surcharge
reflects the additional processing costs
associated with the manual processing
of off-line securities transfers.
The Treasury does not charge a fee for
account maintenance, the stripping and
reconstitution of Treasury securities, or
the wires associated with original
issues, or interest and redemption
payments. The Treasury currently
absorbs these costs and will continue to
do so.
The fees described in this notice
apply only to the transfer of Treasury
book-entry securities held on NBES.
Information concerning book-entry
transfers of government Agency
securities, which are priced by the
Federal Reserve System, is set out in a
separate Federal Register notice
published by the Board of Governors of
the Federal Reserve System on
November 22, 2006, Docket No. OP–
1269.
The following is the Treasury fee
schedule that will take effect on January
2, 2007, for the book-entry transfers on
NBES:
