Government Securities Market Regulation
Are you a lawyer, or a financial advisor, advising a client who owns Treasury securities, or a law student researching a paper? Or do you just want to read the laws and regulations on which our programs are based? Here's what you will find:
We use the Government Printing Office (GPO) website to link to the statutes.
Sale of Treasury Securities (31 U.S.C. Subtitle B, Chapter II, Sub-chapter B, Bureau of the Fiscal Service) authorizes the Treasury to borrow money through the sale of Treasury securities. (The Bureau of the Fiscal Service formerly was the Bureau of the Public Debt.)
Government Securities Act (15 U.S.C. Chapter 2B Section 780-5) governs securities brokers and dealers.
The links to the statutes and regulations on this page will take you away from this site. The Government Printing Office (GPO) publishes the official texts.
Treasury regulations, or circulars, which carry out the statutes, are found in 31 CFR. We use Government Printing Office's GPO Access to connect to the regulations. You can also download many of the circulars related to Treasury regulations.
