*A banking entity insured, or controlled by an banking entity insured, by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. | |||
*A foreign bank having branch or agency in the United States. | |||
*Any non-bank financial company designated by the Financial Stability Oversight Council for supervision by the Federal Reserve Board. | |||

*Foreign public funds | |||
*Loan securitizations | |||
*Public welfare investments | |||
