Federal Open Market Committee; 

Domestic Policy Directive of January 

27–28, 2015 

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 January 27–28, 2015.1

Consistent with its statutory mandate, 

the Federal Open Market Committee 

seeks monetary and financial conditions 

that will foster maximum employment 

and price stability. In particular, 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 

undertake open market operations as 

necessary to maintain such conditions. 

The Committee directs the Desk to 

maintain its policy of rolling over 

maturing Treasury securities into new 

issues and its policy of reinvesting 

principal payments on all agency debt 

and agency mortgage-backed securities 

in agency mortgage-backed securities. 

The Committee also directs the Desk to 

engage in dollar roll and coupon swap 

transactions as necessary to facilitate 

settlement of the Federal Reserve’s 

agency mortgage-backed securities 

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, March 3, 2015. 

Thomas Laubach, 

Secretary, Federal Open Market Committee.
