31 C.F.R. § 363.209 How can I direct that my marketable Treasury security be sold on the open market (Sell Direct® )?
Title 31 - Money and Finance: Treasury
(a) Sell Direct. We offer a service, referred to as Sell Direct, in which we will sell your marketable Treasury security for you on the open market at your request. We will transfer your security to an account in the commercial book-entry system maintained by our agent, and will sell the security on your behalf. By authorizing the transfer and sale of the security, you agree to accept the price received by our agent. If our agent is unable to obtain at least one price quote for the security, the security will be returned to your TreasuryDirect® account. (b) Fee. We charge a fee for each security sold on your behalf. By authorizing the sale of the security, you authorize our agent to deduct the fee from the proceeds of the sale. If our agent is unable to complete the sale, no fee will be charged. The amount of the fee is published in the (c) Definitions. The following definitions will help you understand this section and the confirmation that you will receive after the sale is completed. (1) The trade date is the date that your security is sold. (2) A security, for the purpose of this section, is any amount represented by a separate CUSIP number (see definition of CUSIP in 31 CFR part 356). (3) The settlement date is the date that the proceeds of the sale are released to the financial institution that you designated to receive the proceeds. (4) The yield to maturity, or yield, is the annualized rate of return to maturity on a fixed principal security expressed as a percentage. For an inflation-indexed security, yield means real yield, as defined in 31 CFR part 356. (d) On the settlement date, our agent will release the settlement proceeds, less the fee, to the account at the financial institution that you designated. (e) When the transaction is complete, our agent will send you a confirmation. The confirmation will include the price, trade date, settlement date, settlement amount or net amount, transaction fee, and yield to maturity. (f) We are not liable for changes in market conditions affecting the price received for the security, or for any loss that you may incur as a result of the sale or the inability of our agent to complete the sale. (g) We reserve the right to terminate the Sell Direct® service at any time.
