Abstract: The FR 2004 collects data from primary dealers in the U.S. government securities market. Filing of the data is required to obtain the benefit of primary dealer status. The Federal Reserve uses these data to monitor the condition of the U.S. government securities market in its surveillance and analysis of the market and to assist the U.S. Department of the Treasury (Treasury). In addition, these data are helpful in the analysis of broad financial conditions and a range of financial stability issues.
