The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System has issued a
revised Consumer Handbook on Adjustable Rate Mortgages (CHARM). Regulation Z, which
implements the Truth in Lending Act, requires that the handbook be provided to consumers
when they apply for an adjustable rate mortgage loan.
Creditors may continue using the earlier version of the handbook until existing
supplies are exhausted. Copies of the revised CHARM may be obtained from the Federal
Reserve at:

Publication Services, Mail Stop 127

Washington, DC 20551 |
The first 100 copies of the handbook are free. The handbook may also be
accessed from the Federal Reserve’s public Web site at http://www.federalreserve.gov/consumers.htm.
