Resolution Approving Investment Agreement with the San Diego County
Treasurer -Tax Collector for Investment in the San Diego County
Treasurer's Pooled Investment Fund, consistent with National City
Investment Policy #203. Term of Agreement terminates when City of
National City has withdrawn all funds from the Pool.
Staff Report:
On November 1, 2011, the City Council approved the Investment Management
Services Committee's recommendation to participate in the San Diego County
Treasurer's Pooled Investment Fund, consistent with National City Investment
Policy #203.
The amount to be invested with the County Pool will be dependent on a cash
flow analysis that will be conducted following City Council approval of the
agreement.
County of San Diego Investment Pool
The San Diego County Investment Pool is a local government money fund which
ranges in size from $3.7 to $6.3 billion in assets on an annual basis. In October
2011, County Treasurer/Tax Collector Dan McAllister reported that the Pool's
cash has increased to a record $7.2 billion, and is managed to provide a
maximum return while safeguarding principal and maintaining liquidity.
The Pool was originally created in 1853 by the County Board of Supervisors to
invest the assets of the County and other public agencies located within the
County.
The three primary objectives of the County Pool, which mirror National City's
objectives, are:
1. To safeguard principal;
2. To meet liquidity needs of Pool participants; and
3. To achieve an investment return on the funds within the guidelines of
prudent risk management.
Investment Pool Participants: The County Pool is comprised of 42 school and
community college districts, the local Airport Authority and 48 other special
districts and is comprised of monies deposited by mandatory and voluntary
participants. Mandatory participants include the County of San Diego K-12
school districts, community college districts and fire districts.
Voluntary participants are those agencies that are not required to invest their
monies in the County Pool and do so only as an investment option. Voluntary
participants include cities and various special districts, including:
• City of Del Mar
• City of Chula Vista
• City of Lemon Grove
• San Diego County Regional Airport Authority
• SANDAG
• San Diego Housing Authority
Pool Investments / Securities: The Pool monies are safeguarded through a
minimum investment of 67% in AAA rated paper. The AAA rating indicates
extremely strong protection against losses from credit defaults for those
securities. The County does not invest in any securities that receive lower than
an A -rating.
The County of San Diego Pool Investments:
• U.S. Treasuries
• Federal Agency Securities
• Negotiable CDs
• Collateralized CDs
• Repurchase Agreements
• Commercial Paper
• Medium Term Notes
• Money Market Funds
Pool Oversight: In accordance with State law, the authority to manage the
County Pool assets is delegated to the County Treasurer's Office. The Pool's
investment team, which has over 75 years of investment experience, reports
directly to the County Treasurer. A ten -member Oversight Committee,
comprised of County officials, school district officials, a special district official and
up to five public members, meets regularly to review the Pool's investment
strategy.
Additionally, the County Investment Policy is reviewed and approved annually by
the Oversight Committee and then approved by the County Board of
Supervisors. The Policy focuses on risk management by setting limits on
principal exposure and liquidity.
Pool Strength and Stability: The County Pool has been rated AAA by Standard &
Poor's (S&P) for the past 11 years. This is the absolute highest rating issued by
S&P and indicates extremely strong protection against credit losses associated
with the Pool's investments. S&P also assigned the Pool an S1 rating which
indicates that the Pool possesses low sensitivity to changing market conditions
due to its low risk profile and conservative investment policies.
A disciplined approach has resulted in successful Pool management during the
recent financial crisis. Diversification of security types, issuers, and Pool
participants reduces the Pool's risk exposures and Pool balance and voluntary
participation have increased, resulting in a new record high balance of $7.2
billion in April 2011.
Pool Risk Factors: As mandated by State law, the County Pool is invested in a
conservative manner and limits the investments to fixed -income securities. As
such, the Pool is prohibited from investing in equities (stocks), index funds and
any of the following derivative notes; inverse floaters, range notes, interest only
strips derived from a pool of mortgages, and any security that could result in a
zero interest accrual.
Although many risks are mitigated by strict adherence to State law and the
County's Investment Policy, some risks still remain. The three main risk factors
facing many investment pools are:
• Credit risk: The Pool's exposure to credit risk is lessened by diligent
compliance to established credit guidelines and by limiting the allocation to
certain types of securities.
• Liquidity risk: As of August 31, 2011 the Pool has 75.5% in securities
maturing one year or less in response to market and political uncertainties.
The Pool seeks to reduce the amount of liquidity risk and to provide the
necessary liquidity to Pool participants by limiting both the maturing length
of securities and the allocation to moderately liquid and illiquid securities.
A minimum of 50% of the Pool is invested in securities that mature in one
year or less and at least half of those securities mature within 90 days.
• Interest rate risk. The effects of interest rate risk are managed in the Pool
by limiting the Pool's maximum duration and implementing a "buy -and -
hold" investment strategy. By employing this strategy, the Pool is able to
avoid realized losses resulting from a rise in interest rates.
Credit Quality: The investment portfolio is heavily invested in the highest quality
securities. Managers limit the potential loses due to credit risk and market risk by
investing in highly rated paper rated at least A or better by Standard & Poor's.
The AAA rating signifies that the pool possesses low sensitivity to changing
market conditions given its low risk profile and conservative investment policies.
S&P regularly monitors the pool's portfolio holdings to maintain the accuracy of
its credit quality and volatility profile.
Portfolio Assets: The Pool's primary objectives are to safeguard investment
principal, to maintain adequate liquidity to meet daily and longer-tem projected
cash flows and to achieve an investment return on the funds within the
parameters of prudent risk management. The pool continues to invest in top -tier
commercial paper, U.S. Agencies, medium term notes, 'AAAm' rated money
market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other high credit quality short-
term money market securities.
The pool, which averaged $5.5 billion in assets during the past year, invests a
minimum of 25% in securities maturing overnight to 91 with a total of 50%
maturing (one year or less) and the remainder of the portfolio in securities
maturing in five years of less.
Fees: The Investment Pool allocates net earnings to its participants on a
quarterly basis, with investment and administrative fees deducted from total
earnings prior to distribution. Historical fees have remained competitive,
averaging between 13 and 15 basis points as a percentage of participants'
average daily Investment Pool balance. Banking expenses, software expenses,
and Treasury personnel comprise the majority of the quarterly fees. A more
detailed schedule of historical investment and administrative costs may be found
in the Investment Pool CAFR on the San Diego County Treasurer's website at
www.sdtreastax.com.
Regional Education Resources: The County of San Diego offers a series of
annual financial training seminars that are open to all pool participants, including
• Cash Handling Certification Workshop
• Debt Seminar
• Investment Symposium
• Pool Participant Annual Meeting
• Fraud Prevention Seminar
This is a valuable resource given the City's reduction in training and travel
opportunities available to staff.
Reference Checks: City staff talked to several of the cities who participate in the
County's Investment Pool. All of the cities provided positive feedback on their
participation in the County Pool and the ease in working with the County's
investment staff. Additionally, several Committee members visited the County
offices to experience firsthand how the trading desks work. The Committee
feedback was that the facility is professionally staffed and security of the
operation is assured by back up procedures as well as oversight of the
operation. Investment staff appears very knowledgeable of their roles in the
management of public funds.
Resource Impacts
• Available Funding — The Investment Pool allocates net earnings to its
participants on a quarterly basis, with investment and administrative fees
deducted from total earnings prior to distribution.
• Staffing, Workload Impact — The City Manager's Office, the City
Treasurer, Finance and Accounting staff will monitor the County Pool's
performance.
• Future Budget Implications — There will be no expenditure budget
implications. Additional investment income may be realized.
Next Steps:
If the Agreement with the County Pool is approved by Council on November
the next steps in the process would be:
Conduct Cash Flow Analysis (Chandler/Staff)
Investment Policy Update (Council Action)
Review Cash Flow Projections (Staff)
Wire Portal Training w/County (Staff)

N/A
7TACHMENTS:
1. Staff Report
2. Exhibit A (Summary of Investment Portfolio)
3. County of San Diego Presentation to Committee (Dated 9/12/11)
Staff Report:
The purpose of this report is to recommend the City Council approve the City of
National City's participation in the County of San Diego Investment Pool for the
reasons set forth herein. If the City Council approves the City's participation in
the County's Investment Pool, the Agreement will follow at the next regularly
scheduled meeting on November 15, 2011. The amount to be invested would be
dependent on a cash flow analysis that would be conducted in November /
December 2011.
Background:
The City of National City and the National City Community Development
Commission (CDC) (collectively referred to as "City") have historically managed
its own funds using investment pools and short to medium term securities. Over
the years,'th6 City's investnfient balance has grown to a point where the City can
now invest in more long term instruments and improve the current performance
of its investments.
Today's dire economy has forced us to consider different ways of how we
invest City funds. For example, in 2007, total investment earnings at 5.25%
for all funds yielded $2,346,415 compared to 2011 investment earnings at
0.4% yielding $438,636 to date.
Although the generation of revenues through interest earnings on investment is
an appropriate City goal, the primary consideration in the investment of City
funds is safety of funds by preserving capital in the overall portfolio. As such, the
City's yield objective is to achieve a reasonable rate of return on City investments
rather than the maximum generation of income, which could expose the City to
unacceptable levels of risk.
National City's Current Investment Portfolio:
The combined value of the City's portfolio is approximately $50 million of various
fund types which is currently placed between the California Treasurer's Local
Agency Investment Fund (LAIF), at 75.39%, and other low risk securities.
(Exhibit A) This amount fluctuates depending on expenditures, such as payroll
and other day-to-day operations.
LAIF is a liquid investment pool which allows participants to earn market rate
returns of large investments, while retaining access to funds within 24 hours of a
withdrawal request. The deposit limit for regular accounts is at $50 million. Over
the last couple of years, due to staffing resource limitations and competing
priorities, as portfolio investments matured, the proceeds were placed in LAIF
rather than reinvested in other instruments. While LAIF is a secure investment
that is posting market earnings that meet the City's investment goal, a
concentration of the City's portfolio placed predominately in LAIF lacks diversity.
Additionally, the rate of return continues to decline; going from .538 in January
2011 to .378 in September 2011. The State Treasurer's office predicts that rates
are anticipated to decline even further in the coming months. For comparison
purposes, for the month ended June 30, 2011, LAIF's monthly average effective
yield was 0.45%, compared to the County's average effective yield of 0.86%.
On July 19, 2011, the City Council approved a Request for Proposal (RFP) for
Investment Management Services for the City of National City and approved the
creation of a committee tasked with evaluating proposals and bringing forward a
recommendation of up to two qualified firms for its investment portfolio. Utilizing
the services of a professional investment advisor to manage a portion of the
City's portfolio may enable to the City to achieve some "added value" and allow
City staff to assume other critical finance related responsibilities. The RFP
process has been completed and a separate item is docketed on the November
1, 2011 Council agenda recommending the selection of Chandler Asset
Management.
The RFP assumed the investment of both the City and CDC funds; however, due
to AB x 27 and the pending Supreme Court stay, the City Attorney advises that
the CDC funds must remain invested with LAIF until a final determination has
been made by the State Supreme Court.
During the RFP process, City staff became aware of several local agencies and
cities in the County that participate in the San Diego County Investment Pool.
The Committee requested the County make a presentation on the Investment
Pool (Exhibit B).
The County offers two options to its participants:
1. Invest in the County Pool which provides more flexibility for day-to-day
cash flow needs;
2. A dedicated Portfolio which provides long term investment needs such as
matching long term liabilities.
Committee Recommendation:
The Committee recommends that the City Council approve the City's
participation in the County Pool for National City's short-term cash flow needs.
The Committee considered several factors in its recommendation:
• Provides safety, returns, liquidity, and functionality comparable to that of
LAIF in which National City is already invested;
• Increased accountability. The City has no accountability with LAIF. The
proposed relationship with the County would create a level of
accountability that does not currently exist.
• Diversification of investment portfolio;
• Provides more flexibility for day-to-day cash flow needs;
• Accommodates National City's liquidity needs upon reasonable notice due
to the size of the Pool;
• High liquidity with short term bond yield;
• Local access to investment and accounting staff.
County of San Diego Investment Pool:
The San Diego County Investment Pool is a local government money fund which.
ranges in size from $3.7 to $6.3 billion in assets on an annual basis. In October
2011, County Treasurer/Tax Collector Dan McAllister reported that the Pool's,
cash has increased to a record $7.2 billion, and is managed to provide a
maximum return while safeguarding principal and maintaining liquidity.
The Pool was originally created in 1853 by the County Board of Supervisors to
invest the assets of the County and other public agencies located within the
County.
The three primary objectives of the County Pool, which mirror National City's
objectives, are:
1. To safeguard principal;
2. To meet liquidity needs of Pool participants; and
3. To achieve an investment return on the funds within the guidelines of
prudent risk management.
Investment Pool Participants: The County Pool is comprised of 42 school and
community college districts, the local Airport Authority and 48 other special
districts and is comprised of monies deposited by mandatory and voluntary
participants. Mandatory participants include the County of San Diego K-12
school districts, community college districts and fire districts.
Voluntary participants are those agencies that are not required to invest their
monies in the County Pool and do so only as an investment option. Voluntary
participants include cities and various special districts, including:
• City of Del Mar
• City of Chula Vista
• City of Lemon Grove
• San Diego County Regional Airport Authority
• SANDAG
• San Diego Housing Authority
Pool Investments / Securities: The Pool monies are safeguarded through a
minimum investment of 67% in AAA rated paper. The AAA rating indicates
extremely strong protection against losses from credit defaults for those
securities. The County does not invest in any securities that receive lower than
an A -rating.
The County of San Diego Pool Investments:
• U.S. Treasuries
• Federal Agency Securities
• Negotiable CDs
• Collateralized CDs
• Repurchase Agreements
• Commercial Paper
• Medium Term Notes
• Money Market Funds
Pool Oversight: In accordance with State law, the authority to manage the
County Pool assets is delegated to the County Treasurer's Office. The Pool's
investment team, which has over 75 years of investment experience, reports
directly to the County Treasurer. A ten -member Oversight Committee,
comprised of County officials, school district officials, a special district official and
up to five public members, meets regularly to review the Pool's investment
strategy.
Additionally, the County Investment Policy is reviewed and approved annually by
the Oversight Committee and then approved by the County Board of
Supervisors. The Policy focuses on risk management by setting limits on
principal exposure and liquidity.
Pool Strength and Stability: The County Pool has been rated AAA by Standard &
Poor's (S&P) for the past 11 years. This is the absolute highest rating issued by
S&P and indicates extremely strong. protection against credit lossesassociated
with the Pool's investments. S&P also assigned the Pool an S1 rating which
indicates that the Pool possesses low sensitivity to changing market conditions
due to its low risk profile and conservative investment policies.
A disciplined approach has resulted in successful Pool management during the
recent financial crisis. Diversification of security types, issuers, and Pool
participants reduces the Pool's risk exposures and Pool balance and voluntary
participation have increased, resulting in a new record highbalanceof $7.2
billion in April 2011.
Pool Risk Factors: As mandated by State law, the County Pool is invested in a
conservative manner and limits the investments to fixed -income securities. As
such, the Pool is prohibited from investing in equities (stocks), index funds and
V
any of the following derivative notes; inverse floaters, range notes, interest only
strips derived from a pool of mortgages, and any security that could result in a
zero interest accrual.
Although many risks are mitigated by strict adherence to State law and the
County's Investment Policy, some risks still remain. The three main risk factors
facing many investment pools are:
• Credit risk: The Pool's exposure to credit risk is lessened by diligent
compliance to established credit guidelines and by limiting the allocation to
certain types of securities.
• Liquidity risk: As of August 31, 2011 the Pool has 75.5% in securities
maturing one year or less in response to market and political uncertainties.
The Pool seeks to reduce the amount of liquidity risk and to provide the
necessary liquidity to Pool participants by limiting both the maturing length
of securities and the allocation to moderately liquid and illiquid securities.
A minimum of 50% of the Pool is invested in securities that mature in one
year or less and at least half of those securities mature within 90 days.
• Interest rate risk. The effects of interest rate risk are managed in the Pool
by limiting the Pool's maximum duration and implementing a "buy -and -
hold" investment strategy. By employing this strategy, the Pool is able to
avoid realized losses resulting from a rise in interest rates.
Credit Quality: The investment portfolio is heavily invested in the highest quality
securities. Managers limit the potential loses due to credit risk and market risk by
investing in highly rated paper rated at least A or better by Standard & Poor's.
The AAA rating signifies that the pool possesses low sensitivity to changing
market conditions given its low risk profile and conservative investment policies.
S&P regularly monitors the pool's portfolio holdings to maintain the accuracy of
its credit quality and volatility profile.
Portfolio Assets: The Pool's primary objectives are to safeguard investment
principal, to maintain adequate liquidity to meet daily and longer -tern projected
cash flows and to achieve an investment return on the funds within the
parameters of prudent risk management. The pool continues to invest in top -tier
commercial paper, U.S. Agencies, medium term notes, 'AAAm' rated money
market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other high credit quality short-
term money market securities.
The pool, which averaged $5.5 billion in assets during the past year, invests a
minimum of 25% in securities maturing overnight to 91 with a total of 50%
maturing (one year or less) and the remainder of the portfolio in securities
maturing in five years of less.
Fees: The Investment Pool allocates net earnings to its participants on a
quarterly basis, with investment and administrative fees deducted from total
5
earnings prior to distribution. Historical fees have remained competitive,
averaging between 13 and 15 basis points as a percentage of participants'
average daily Investment Pool balance. Banking expenses, software expenses,
and Treasury personnel comprise the majority of the quarterly fees. A more
detailed schedule of historical investment and administrative costs may be found
in the Investment Pool CAFR on the San Diego County Treasurer's website at
www.sdtreastax.com.
Regional Education Resources: The County of San Diego offers a series of
annual financial training seminars that are open to all pool participants, including
• Cash Handling Certification Workshop
• Debt Seminar
• Investment Symposium
• Pool Participant -Annual Meeting
• Fraud Prevention Seminar
This is a valuable resource given the City's reduction in training and travel
opportunities available to staff.
Reference Checks: City staff talked to several of the cities who participate in the
County's Investment Pool. All of the cities provided positive feedback on their
participation in the County Pool and the ease in working with the County's
investment staff. Additionally, several. Committee members visited the County
offices to experience firsthand how the trading desks work. The Committee
feedback was that the facility is professionally staffed and security of the
operation is assured by back up procedures as well as oversight of the
operation. Investment staff appears very knowledgeable of their roles in the
management of public funds.
County of San Diego's Relationship with Chandler Asset Management An
accompanying agenda item recommends the selection of Chandler Asset
Management as the City's Investment Management firm. Because Chandler
serves in an advisory capacity to the County of San Diego, the Committee
wanted to ensure there would not be a conflict of interest.
Neither the County nor Chandler believes a conflict of interest would exist.
Chandler provides advice to the County; they do not handle their investment
portfolio. Chandler will provide advice separately to the City of National City and
the. County of San Diego; the advice provided to one would not influence the
advice provided to the other. Furthermore, Chandler would only be compensated
on assets National City places under their direct management; not for assets
managed by the County.
Resource Impacts
• Available Funding — The Investment Pool allocates net earnings to its
participants on a quarterly basis, with investment and administrative fees
deducted from total earnings prior to distribution.
• Staffing, Workload Impact — The City Manager's Office, the City
Treasurer, Finance and. Accounting staff will monitor the County Pool's
performance.
• Future Budget Implications — There will be no expenditure budget
implications. Additional investment income may be realized.
Next Steps:
If the City Council approves the Committee's recommendation to participate in
the County Investment Pool, the next steps in the process would be:
Execute Agreement (Council Action)
Conduct Cash Flow Analysis (Chandler/Staff)
Investment Policy Update (Council Action)
Review Cash Flow Projections (Staff)
Wire Portal Training w/County (Staff)
Transfer of Cash / Investment (Staff)

STATEMENT OF GUIDELINES & POLICIES
Investment Framework:
Objective: Invest in high quality securities while maximizing yield in a portfolio with
limited needs. In order of importance: Safety, Return and Liquidity.
Constraints:
Risk Tolerance: Client understands unrealized losses may occur
Credit Quality: . Short term: A-1, Long term: AAA
Liquidity: Updated cash flow model to be provided to Investment Staff on a quarterly
basis.
Time Horizon: Portfolio life of 5+ years. Investment maturities not exceed 5 years.
Taxes: Not applicable
Other: Not applicable
Profile:
Portfolio Structure:
Portfolio will invest primarily in the County Investment Pool, Commercial Paper, Negotiable CD,
Medium Term Notes, US Agencies and Treasuries. The average duration of this portfolio will
vary from 1 to 3 years based on interest rate expectations.
Permissible Investment:
Funds to be invested in the County Investment Pool ("Pool.") or any investment authorized
pursuant to Sections 53601 and 53635 of the Government Code pursuant to Constraints listed
above.
Primary Risks:
Interest Rate Risk:
As interest rates rise, the value of fixed income securities held by the portfolio is likely to decrease.
Securities with longer dated maturities tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates,
usually making them more volatile and susceptible to unrealized losses than securities with shorter
dated maturities. This portfolio will most likely maintain longer dated maturities than both LAIF
and the County Pool, hence more susceptible to unrealized losses.
Issuer Non -Diversification Risk:
A focus of investments in a small number of issuers or industries increases risk. Funds that invest
in a relatively small number of issuers are more susceptible to risks associated with a single
economic, political or regulatory occurrence than a more diversified portfolio might be. This
portfolio will be less diversified than both LAIF and the County Pool, hence, more susceptible to
Non -Diversification Risk.
Expectations:
Five year quarterly cash flow projection with expected draw schedule to be updated on a periodic
basis or as needed. Any substantial cumulative deviation from the draw schedule may result in
realized losses as the Investment Staff might have to liquidate assets to meet updated liquidity
needs.

1,`,0 occc�-' January 1, 2011
The Investment Policy and practices of the County Treasurer are based on prudent money
management principles and California State Law, specifically Government Code Sections
27000.1 - 27000.5, 27130 - 27137, and 53600 - 53686. Section 53635 shall apply to a local
agency that is a county, or other local agency that pools money in deposits or investments with
other local agencies, including local agencies that have the same governing body. However,
Section 53601 shall apply to all local agencies that pool money in deposits or investments
exclusively with local agencies that have the same governing body. Section 53601.7 provides
permissive authority to adopt policy to manage funds much like a money market fund. This
Section will not be implemented for the Pooled Money Fund (the "Fund"). The practices of this
office will always comply with the legal authority and limitations placed on it by the governing
legislative bodies. The implementation of these laws, allowing for the dynamics of the money
markets, will be the focus of this policy statement. All matters contained in this policy are to be
read and applied pursuant to and consistent with state law. Where this Investment Policy
specifies a percentage limitation, compliance will be measured as of the date of purchase. When
investing, reinvesting, purchasing, acquiring, exchanging, selling and managing the Fund the
objectives of this office shall be:
1. The primary objective shall be to safeguard the principal of the funds under the
County Treasurer's control.
2. The secondary objective shall be to meet the liquidity needs of the participants.
3. The third objective shall be to achieve an investment return on the funds under
control of the County Treasurer within the parameters of prudent risk
management.
The Fund is an actively managed portfolio. By this it is meant that the County Treasurer and his
staff will observe, review, and react to changing conditions that affect the Fund; this shall be
viewed as a full time responsibility by the County Treasurer and his staff. The authority to
execute investment transactions that will affect the Fund will be limited to;
County Treasurer
Chief Deputy Treasurer
Chief Investment Officer
Investment Officers
The County Treasurer and the above staff will meet on a regular basis to discuss current market
conditions and future trends and how each of these affects the Fund.

2011 SAN DIEGO COUNTY TREASURER'S
POOLED MONEY FUND INVESTMENT POLICY
The purpose of the County Treasurer's Investment Policy is to implement the legislated
parameters of the investment authority of the Fund. As an elected official of the County
of San Diego, the County Treasurer must manage public monies in a way that is
consistent with investment oversight, and sound investment practices. To have a policy
which only concerns itself with maximizing return is a very dangerous course. The basic
concept of investment return is based on a risk/reward relationship. Therefore, the higher
the return, the higher the risk. Risk management must be an integral part of any
investment policy. Risk management must include adequate internal controls so that Fund
depositors and the public have confidencethat public monies are secure. The policy
stated below will concern itself with risk management.
1. SECURITY OF PRINCIPAL POLICY - The policy issues directed to
protecting the principal entrusted to this office are:
A. Limiting the Fund's exposure to each type of security.
B. Limiting the Fund's exposure to each issue and issuer of debt.
C. Determining the minimum credit requirement for each type of security.
2. LIQUIDITY POLICY - The policy issues directed to provide necessary liquidity
to the participants are:
A. Limiting the length of maturity for securities in the Fund.
B. Limiting the Fund's exposure to Moderately Liquid and Illiquid securities.
3. RETURN POLICY - The policy issues directed to achieving a return are:
A. Attaining a market rate of return taking into account the investment risk
constraints and liquidity needs.
B. A majority of the investments shall be limited to low risk securities in
anticipation of earning a fair return relative to the risk being taken.
MATURITY POLICY
A. Themaximum maturity allowed by the California Government Code is 5
years with shorter limitations specified for certain types of securities. The
mandatory minimum for the maturity structure of the Fund shall be to have
50% of the Fund in instruments with remaining maturities. ofone year or less.
Furthermore, at least 25% of the Fund must mature within 90 days. The
maximum effective duration for the Fund shall be 1.50 years. The following
bullet points summarize these parameters:
• At least 50% of the Fund maturing within 1 year
• At least 25% of the Fund maturing within 90 days
• Maximum effective duration of 1.50 years
B. The Fund will be considered in compliance with the maturity policy if it meets
the maturity targets above. In the event that the Fund distribution does not
comply with the table above, until such time as the Fund is within maturity
targets, all securities purchased shall be of a maturity or duration that will
lower the maturity and or duration of the Fund. In the event a compliance
violation has occurred, a variance report shall be made to the Oversight
Committee as part of the normal monthly reporting.
5. PROHIBITED SECURITIES
The California Government Code prohibits a local agency to invest in any of the
following derivative notes:
• Inverse Floater
• Range Notes
• Interest -only strips derived from a pool of mortgages
• Any security that could result in zero interest accrual
6. CREDIT RATING POLICY
A. This Investment Policy sets forth minimum credit ratings for each type of
security. These credit limits apply to the initial purchase of a security and
does not automatically force the sale of a security if the credit ratings of the
security fall below the policy limits.
B. The monitoring of credit ratings consists of the following procedures:
1. When a credit rating downgrade occurs, the Investment Group will
evaluate the downgrade on a case -by -case situation to determine
whether to hold or sell the security after further analysis of the credit
rating on an ongoing basis.
2. In the event a security in the Fund receives a credit rating downgrade,
the Investment Group will report the rating change to the Oversight
Committee in. the monthly report. In the.same manner, the Oversight
Committee will be informed on the Investment Group's decision to
hold or sell a downgraded security.
3. The Investment Group shall meet at least quarterly to review and
update the approved list of securities and establish credit criteria for
each category of security.
'is
C. To ensure that the Fund maintains an overall credit rating of AAAf / Si, the
highest rating given by Standard & Poors, the asset allocation with respect to
credit quality will be provided to S&P on a monthly basis.
Rated investments below Al (short term) or A (long term) rated, at the time of
purchase, are prohibited in this policy.
7. INTERNAL CONTROLS
A. The Chief Deputy Treasurer is responsible for establishing and maintaining an
internal control structure designed to ensure that the assets of the entity arc
protected from loss, theft or misuse. The internal control structure shall be
designed to provide reasonable assurance that these objectives are met. The
concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that:
1. The cost of a control should not exceed the benefitslikely to be derived;
and
2. The valuation of costs and benefits requires estimates and judgments by
management.
B. Accordingly, the Chief Deputy Treasurer shall establish and maintain internal
controls that shall address the following points:
1. Control of Collusion - Collusion is a situation where two or more
employees are working in conjunction to defraud their employer.
2. Separation of Transaction Authority from Accounting and Record
Keeping - By separating the person who authorizes the transaction from
the people who record or otherwise account for the transaction, a
separation of duties is achieved.
3. Custodial Safekeeping - Securities purchased from any bank or dealer
including appropriate collateral (as defined by California State Law), not
insured by FDIC, shall be placed with an independent third party for
custodial safekeeping.
4. Avoidance of Physical Delivered Bearer Securities - Book entry
securities are much easier to transfer and account for since actual
delivery of a document never takes place. Bearer securities must be
properly safeguarded against loss or destruction. The potential for fraud
and loss increases with such securities.
5. Clear Delegation of Authority to Subordinate Staff Members -
Subordinate staff members must have a clear understanding of their
authority and responsibilities to avoid improper actions. Clear
delegation of authority also preserves the internal control structure that
is contingent on the various staff positions and their respective
responsibilities.
6. Written Confirmation of Telephone Wire Transfers - Due to the
potential for error and improprieties arising from telephone transactions,
all telephone transactions should be supported by written or electronic
