in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

Federal Reserve banks can buy, sell, and trade bills receivable and bills of exchange. This includes foreign and domestic bills, plus certain acceptances. The Federal Reserve Board can set rules limiting how banks do this.

Federal Reserve banks are allowed to discount, rediscount, buy, and sell bills receivable, along with domestic and foreign bills of exchange, and acceptances that this law authorizes. But the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System can impose restrictions, limits, and regulations on how Reserve banks do any of this.
