Federal Open Market Committee; 

Domestic Policy Directive of December 

13, 2011 

In accordance with Section 271.7(d) 

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 December 13, 2011.1

‘‘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 

continue the maturity extension 

program it began in September to 

purchase, by the end of June 2012, 

Treasury securities with remaining 

maturities of approximately 6 years to 

30 years with a total face value of $400 

billion, and to sell Treasury securities 

with remaining maturities of 3 years or 

less with a total face value of $400 

billion. The Committee also directs the 

Desk to maintain its existing policies of 

rolling over maturing Treasury 

securities into new issues and of 

reinvesting principal payments on all 

agency debt and agency mortgagebacked securities in the System Open 

Market Account in agency mortgagebacked securities in order to maintain 

the total face value of domestic 

securities at approximately $2.6 trillion. 

The Committee directs the Desk to 

engage in dollar roll transactions as 

necessary to facilitate settlement of the 

Federal Reserve’s agency MBS 

transactions. 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, January 11, 2012. 

William B. English, 

Secretary, Federal Open Market Committee.
