Treasury Ups Bond Holding Period

by Mary Beth Guard, BOL Guru

Customers will need a little more patience now that the minimum holding period for U.S. Savings Bonds is being extended from six to 12 months, effective with bond issues dated on or after Feb. 1, 2003. Both Series EE and I bonds are affected.

The original version appeared in the March 2003 edition of the Oklahoma Bankers Association Compliance Informer.
