Background/Summary: 

It is essential for the City to ensure the prudent management of public funds, the availability of operating and capital funds when needed and an investment return competitive with comparable funds and financial market indices. The purpose of the Investment Policy is to set forth the investment objective and parameters for the management of public funds and of the City. The current Policy was adopted in October 2013. The City's Investment Manager is recommending changes to the Policy.

Public Trust Advisors has recommended changes to the Investment Poicy to include:

- A Triple A rated (AAA) Asset Backed Security as an additional sector within the corporate sector as an opportunity to further diversify the investment portfolio.

- A slight increase within the existing permitted investment to allow more flexibility for investment options.

These changes will allow a more dynamic managed investment strategy to expand the asset allocation from a single class and implement a laddered maturity structure for higher income opportunity.
