Federal Reserve System April 17, 2008 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The Board and the Commission jointly are adopting technical amendments to Regulation R, which the Agencies jointly adopted in September 2007. Regulation R implements certain of the exceptions for banks from the definition of the term ``broker'' in section 3(a)(4) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (``Exchange Act''), as amended by the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (``GLBA''). The technical amendments correct cross-references and other typographical errors in the regulation.
