Farm Credit Administration. ACTION: Final rule; correcting amendment. SUMMARY: The Farm Credit Administration
(FCA)published a final rule in the **Federal Register** on November 1, 2013 to strengthen liquidity risk management at the Federal Agricultural Mortgage Corporation, improve the quality of assets in its liquidity reserves, and bolster its ability to fund its obligations and continue operations during times of economic, financial, or market adversity. This document corrects and clarifies the section amended by final rule. DATES: Effective April 30, 2014. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Joseph T. Connor, Associate Director for Policy and Analysis, Office of Secondary Market Oversight, Farm Credit Administration, McLean, VA 22102-5090,
(703)883-4280, TTY
(703)883-4056; or Richard A. Katz, Senior Counsel, Office of General Counsel, Farm Credit Administration, McLean, VA 22102-5090,
(703)883-4020, TTY
(703)883-4056. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FCA published a final rule in the **Federal Register** on November 1, 2013, (78 FR 65541) amending part 652. This final rule was corrected on May 20, 2014 (79 FR 28810) to accurately reflect the addition of new definitions. The final rule became effective on April 30, 2014. *See* 79 FR 29074, May 21, 2014. Due to a technical error in the language used in both the correction document and effective date notice, a portion of 12 CFR 652.5 was inadvertently removed. This correcting amendment reinstates the section as was intended by both the November 1, 2013, rule and its May 20, 2014, correction. List of Subjects in 12 CFR Part 652 Agriculture, Banks, Banking, Capital, Investments, Rural areas. For reasons stated in the preamble, the FCA amends 12 CFR part 652 with the following correcting amendment: PART 652—FEDERAL AGRICULTURAL MORTGAGE CORPORATION FUNDING AND FISCAL AFFAIRS 1.

L. 102-552, 106 Stat. 4102; sec. 118 of Pub. L. 104-105, 110 Stat. 168; sec. 939A of Pub. L. 11-203, 124 Stat. 1326, 1887 (15 U.S.C. 78o-7 note) (July 21, 2010). 2. Revise § 652.5 to read as follows: § 652.5 Definitions. For purposes of this subpart, the following definitions will apply: *Affiliate* means any entity established under authority granted to the Corporation under section 8.3(c)(14) of the Farm Credit Act of 1971, as amended. *Asset-backed securities (ABS)* mean investment securities that provide for ownership of a fractional undivided interest or collateral interests in specific assets of a trust that are sold and traded in the capital markets. For the purposes of this subpart, ABS exclude mortgage securities that are defined below. *Cash* means cash balances held at Federal Reserve Banks, proceeds from traded-but-not-yet-settled debt, and deposit accounts at Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation-insured banks. *Contingency Funding Plan (CFP)* is described in § 652.35(d)(2). *Eurodollar time deposit* means a non-negotiable deposit denominated in United States dollars and issued by an overseas branch of a United States bank or by a foreign bank outside the United States. *Farmer Mac, Corporation, you, and your* means the Federal Agricultural Mortgage Corporation and its affiliates. *FCA, our, us, or we* means the Farm Credit Administration. *Final maturity* means the last date on which the remaining principal amount of a security is due and payable (matures) to the registered owner. It does not mean the call date, the expected average life, the duration, or the weighted average maturity. *General obligations* of a state or political subdivision means:
(1)The full faith and credit obligations of a state, the District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, a territory or possession of the United States, or a political subdivision thereof that possesses general powers of taxation, including property taxation; or
(2)An obligation that is unconditionally guaranteed by an obligor possessing general powers of taxation, including property taxation. *Government agency* means the United States or an agency, instrumentality, or corporation of the United States Government whose obligations are fully and explicitly insured or guaranteed as to the timely repayment of principal and interest by the full faith and credit of the United States Government. *Government-sponsored agency* means an agency, instrumentality, or corporation chartered or established to serve public purposes specified by the United States Congress but whose obligations are not fully and explicitly insured or guaranteed by the full faith and credit of the United States Government, including but not limited to any Government-sponsored enterprise. *Liability Maturity Management Plan (LMMP)* is described in § 652.35(d)(2)(iv). *Liquid investments* are assets that can be promptly converted into cash without significant loss to the investor. A security is liquid if the spread between its bid price and ask price is narrow and a reasonable amount can be sold at those prices promptly. *Liquidity reserve* is described in § 652.40. *Long-Term Standby Purchase Commitment (LTSPC)* is a commitment by Farmer Mac to purchase specified eligible loans on one or more undetermined future dates. In consideration for Farmer Mac's assumption of the credit risk on the specified loans underlying an LTSPC, Farmer Mac receives an annual commitment fee on the outstanding balance of those loans in monthly installments based on the outstanding balance of those loans. *Market risk* means the risk to your financial condition because the value of your holdings may decline if interest rates or market prices change. Exposure to market risk is measured by assessing the effect of changing rates and prices on either the earnings or economic value of an individual instrument, a portfolio, or the entire Corporation. *Maturing obligations* means maturing debt and other obligations that may be expected, such as buyouts of long-term standby purchase commitments or repurchases of agricultural mortgage securities. *Mortgage securities* means securities that are either:
(1)Pass-through securities or participation certificates that represent ownership of a fractional undivided interest in a specified pool of residential (excluding home equity loans), multifamily or commercial mortgages, or
(2)A multiclass security (including collateralized mortgage obligations and real estate mortgage investment conduits) that is backed by a pool of residential, multifamily or commercial real estate mortgages, pass-through mortgage securities, or other multiclass mortgage securities.
(3)This definition does not include agricultural mortgage-backed securities guaranteed by Farmer Mac itself. *Nationally recognized statistical rating organization (NRSRO)* means a rating organization that the Securities and Exchange Commission recognizes as an NRSRO. *Non-program investments* means investments other than those in:
(1)“Qualified loans” as defined in section 8.0(9) of the Farm Credit Act of 1971, as amended; or
(2)Securities collateralized by “qualified loans.” *OSMO* means FCA's Office of Secondary Market Oversight. *Program assets* means on-balance sheet “qualified loans” as defined in section 8.0(9) of the Farm Credit Act of 1971, as amended. *Program obligations* means off-balance sheet “qualified loans” as defined in section 8.0(9) of the Farm Credit Act of 1971, as amended. *Regulatory capital* means your core capital plus an allowance for losses and guarantee claims, as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. *Revenue bond* means an obligation of a municipal government that finances a specific project or enterprise, but it is not a full faith and credit obligation. The obligor pays a portion of the revenue generated by the project or enterprise to the bondholders. *Weighted average life (WAL)* means the average time until the investor receives the principal on a security, weighted by the size of each principal payment and calculated under specified prepayment assumptions. Dated: September 3, 2014. Dale L. Aultman, Secretary, Farm Credit Administration Board. [FR Doc. 2014-21319 Filed 9-5-14; 8:45 am]
