If a not-for-profit entity (NFP) is holding an investment as an agent and has little or no discretion in determining how the investment income, unrealized gains and losses, and realized gains and losses resulting from that investment will be used, the investment's acquisition shall be reported as an agency transaction. That is, the NFP agent recognizes the acquisition as an asset and a liability rather than as a change in net assets.
