AGENDA BILL Agenda Item No. 5(0) Date: December 3, 2013 To: El Cerrito City Council From: Geoff Thomas, Finance Manger Lisa Malek-Zadeh, Finance Director/City Treasurer Subject: Quarterly Investment Report For Period Ending September 30, 2013 ACTION REQUESTED Receive and file the City's Quarterly Investment Report for the period ending September 30, 2013. QUARTERLY INVESTMENT REPORT REVIEW The Quarterly Investment Report for July 2013through September 2013 shows that the City's investments had a par value of $1,783,495 as of September 30, 2013. A decrease of $570,239 from last quarter is due to use of $535,616 of the Solar Capital Lease proceeds to continue the project and the use of $38,823 in excess reserves towards the Swim Center's debt service payment in September, offset by interest earnings. The City continues to have minimal investments that are not required for debt service reserves and to have limited, if any, interest earnings on restricted funds. Of the total amount invested, $2,698 is invested in the pooled funds with the State Treasurer's Local Agency Investment Funds (LAIF); $440,797 is held in money market funds; and $1,340,000 is invested in agency debt investments. FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS The purpose of the City's Investment Policy is to provide guidelines for prudent investment of the City's idle funds and maximum efficiency of the City's cash management system. The ultimate goal is to enhance the City's economic condition while protecting the funds at all times. The City's investments comply with the "Authorized Investments" section of the Investment Policy. Reviewed by: ren Pinkos, Assistant City Manager Attachment: 1.
