jurisdiction of the United States.
    Who Must Report: This mandatory survey is conducted under the 
authority of the International Investment and Trade in Services Survey 
Act (22 U.S.C. 3101 et seq.) The panel for this survey is based

of U.S. securities, and on the Aggregate Holdings of Long-Term 
Securities by U.S. and Foreign Residents (TIC SLT) report as of

Entities required to report will be contacted individually by the 
Federal Reserve Bank of New York. Entities not contacted by the Federal 
Reserve Bank of New York have no reporting responsibilities.
    What to Report: This report will collect information on foreign 
resident holdings of U.S. securities, including equities, short-term 
debt securities (including selected money market instruments), and 
long-term debt securities.

with the Paperwork Reduction Act and assigned control number 1505-0123. 
An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to 
respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a valid 
control number assigned by OMB. The estimated average annual burden 
associated with this collection of information is 486 hours per report 
for the largest custodians of securities, and 110 hours per report for 
the largest issuers of securities that have data to report and are not 
custodians. Comments concerning the accuracy of this burden estimate 
and suggestions for reducing this burden should be directed to the 
Department of the Treasury, Office of International Affairs, Attention 
Administrator, International Portfolio Investment Data Reporting 
Systems, Room 1050, Washington, DC 20220, and to OMB, Attention Desk 
Officer for the Department of the Treasury, Office of Information and 
Regulatory Affairs, Washington, DC 20503.
