of market value. To attain this objective, diversification
is required in order that potential losses on individual securities do not exceed the income generated from the
remainder of the portfolio.
2. Liquidity of Funds
The portfolios shall be managed in such a manner that funds are available to meet reasonably anticipated cash flow
requirements in an orderly manner. Periodic cash flow analyses will be completed in order to ensure that the portfolios
are positioned to provide sufficient liquidity for budgeted operating and capital needs. Details regarding the City' s
budget and spending plan will be updated annually.
Investment Income
The portfolios shall be designed with the objective of attaining a market rate of remm throughout budgetary
and economic cycles, taking into account the investment risk constraints and liquidity needs. Return on
investment is of least importance compared to the safety of principal and liquidity objectives described above.
However, remm is attempted through active management where the Portfolio Manager utilizes a total remm
strategy ( which includes both realized and unrealized gains and losses in the portfolio). This total return
strategy seeks to increase the value of the portfolio through reinvestment of income and capital gains. The
core of investments is limited to relatively low risk securities in anticipation of coming a fair remm relative to
the risk being assumed. Despite this, a Portfolio Manager may trade to recognize a loss from time to time to
achieve a perceived relative value based on its potential to enhance the total remm of the portfolio.
Investments should be made subject to the cash flow needs and such cash [ lows are subject to revisions as
market conditions and the City' s needs change. However, when the invested funds are needed in whole or in
part for the purpose originally intended or for more optimal investments, the Finance Director or Investment
Advisor(s) may sell the investment at the then- prevailing market price and place the proceeds into the proper
account at the City' s custodian.
IV. AUTHORIZED INVESTMENTS, MATURITY & LIQUIDITY REQUIREMENTS, AND m
PORTFOLIO COMPOSITION c
It is the City' s desire for all accounts to be fully invested; however, any funds in the custodial account not m
otherwise invested will be " swept" each night into a fully collateralized repurchase agreement or institutional Tim
money market fund. r
The following matrix identifies the portfolio investment requirements and allocation limits on security types,
issuers, and maturities as established by the City. The Maximum Allocation Limit and Maximum Issuer Limit
apply to the City' s comprehensive portfolio ( i.e. all ofthe City' s investments covered under this policy); they do
not apply separately to each of the portfolio types. The average duration of the funds managed by any one E
external portfolio manager on beha f
/ of the City as part of the por(folims) shall not exceed 1. 2 times the m
selected benchmark. "
Q
The Finance Director or Investment Advisor( s) shall have the option to further restrict investment percentages
from time to time based on market conditions, risk, and diversification investment strategies. The percentage
allocations requirements for investment types and issuers are calculated based on the market value of each
investment. The allocation limits and security types do not apply to the investment of debt proceeds, which are
governed by the debt covenant included in the debt instmment.
Investments not listed in this Policy are prohibited.
