Formations of, Acquisitions by, and
Mergers of Bank Holding Companies
In accordance with Section 271.25 of
its rules regarding availability of
information (12 CFR part 271), there is
set forth below the domestic policy
directive issued by the Federal Open
Market Committee at its meeting held
on November 2 and 3, 2010.1
The Federal Open Market Committee
seeks monetary and financial conditions
that will foster price stability and
promote sustainable growth in output.
To further its long-run objectives, the
Committee seeks conditions in reserve
markets consistent with federal funds
trading in a range from 0 to 1⁄4 percent.
The Committee directs the Desk to
execute purchases of longer-term
Treasury securities by the end of June
2011 in order to increase the total face
value of domestic securities held in the
System Open Market Account to
approximately $2.6 trillion. The
Committee also directs the Desk to
reinvest principal payments from
agency debt and agency mortgagebacked securities in longer-term
Treasury securities. The System Open
Market Account Manager and the
Secretary will keep the Committee
informed of ongoing developments
regarding the System’s balance sheet
that could affect the attainment over
time of the Committee’s objectives of
maximum employment and price
stability.
By order of the Federal Open Market
Committee.
Dated: November 24, 2010.

Secretary, Federal Open Market Committee.
