225.24 of the Board's Regulation Y (12 CFR 225.24), to acquire or 
retain more than 20 percent of the voting shares of TP Group Limited, 
Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands, and thereby acquire shares of its 
subsidiary, Tradepoint Financial Networks plc, London, England 
(Tradepoint). Tradepoint operates the Tradepoint Stock Exchange, an 
electronic stock exchange for the trading of certain securities listed 
on the London Stock Exchange. The Tradepoint Stock Exchange allows 
members to electronically enter bids or offers on securities, 
automatically matches bids and offers for execution, and engages in 
other related activities. The Tradepoint Stock Exchange does not settle 
the trades executed on the exchange; trades generally are settled 
through the London Clearing House. The Tradepoint Stock Exchange is a 
recognized investment exchange under Section 37(3) of the United 
Kingdom Financial Services Act of 1986. Pursuant to an exemptive order 
issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Tradepoint Stock 
Exchange is not registered as an exchange under the Securities Exchange 
Act of 1934. The proposed activities would be conducted worldwide.
    In publishing the proposal for comment, the Board does not take a 
position on issues raised by the proposal. Notice of the proposal is 
published solely to seek the views of interested persons on the issues 
presented by the application, including whether the proposed activities 
are ``so closely related to banking or managing or controlling banks as 
to be a proper incident thereto'' for purposes of section 4(c)(8) of 
the BHC Act. Notificants assert that the proposed activities are 
permissible under section 225.28(b)(7) of the Board's Regulation Y. 
Additional information concerning the proposals is contained in the 
notices, which are available at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. 
The notice also will be available for inspection at the Board of 
Governors. Any comments or requests for hearing should be submitted in 
writing and received by Jennifer J. Johnson, Secretary, Board of 
Governors of the Federal Reserve System, Washington, DC 20551, not 
later than September 17, 1999.
