Treasury is revising the last sentence of paragraph I.C. ‘‘Rule Applicable to Independent Non-Profit and For-Profit Entities that Invest SSBCI Funds for Follow-On and Crossover Investments’’ in order to clarify when an investment of SSBCI funds is allowed. This is not a policy change, but a clarification to make the policy easily understood. The change inserts the word ‘‘prior’’ to the last sentence of the paragraph, to specify that the funds in question must have been from a prior investment. The line would now read ‘‘an investment of SSBCI funds in a company or venture capital fund in which the entity holds any type of financial interest resulting from a prior investment made with nonSSBCI funds’’ as the bolded, underlined words are added. The revisions to the National Standards are available on Treasury’s Web site at www.treasury.gov/ssbci. Dated: June 19, 2014. Clifton G. Kellogg, Director, State Small Business Credit Initiative.
