This concept is relevant to [[U.S. persons]] who are purchasing {{tag|debt securities}} in offerings which are not SEC registered. Generally {{tag|US persons}} cannot buy from public offers of  securities that are not registered with the SEC (known as {{tag|Regulation S}} issues - it includes most {{tag|Eurobond}}s issued in the London market.
 
There is an exemption - the Rule 144A exemption, which applies to private offers of securities to [[QIB]]s. QIBs are basicvally "big boys" who do not require SEC protection to make these investments. They must hold the securities for a certain period before selling them.
