Introductory Material

This is archived information that pertains only to the 2004 Tax Year. If you

Introduction

This publication contains directories relating to real estate mortgage investment conduits (REMICs) and collateralized debt obligations (CDOs), including CDOs issued in the form of “regular interests” in Financial Asset Securitization Investment Trusts (FASITs). The directory for each calendar quarter is based on information submitted to the IRS during that quarter. This publication is only available on the Internet.

For each quarter, there is:

  • A directory of new REMICs and CDOs, and

  • A section containing amended listings.

You can use the directory to find the representative of the REMIC or the issuer of the CDO from whom you can request tax information. The amended listing section shows changes to previously listed REMICs and CDOs.

The directory for each calendar quarter will be added to this publication approximately six weeks after the end of the quarter.

Other information.   Publication 550, Investment Income and Expenses, discusses the tax treatment that applies to holders of these investment products. For other information about REMICs, see sections 860A through 860G of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) and any regulations issued under those sections. For information on FASITs, see sections 860H through 860L of the IRC.
