INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM
TO: Finance Committee
FROM: Peggy McCarthy, Finance Director
CC: Mayor Ekberg
DATE: February 6, 2019
SUBJECT: 2018 Cash & Investment Report
ISSUE
The cash and investment report provides portfolio information as of December 31, 2018 and for the
year then ended.
BACKGROUND
City funds are invested to earn a reasonable return while preserving principal and allowing sufficient
liquidity to meet the City's operating needs. To achieve these objectives investments are diversified
by type, by financial institution, and by maturities in compliance with the City Investment Policy.
DISCUSSION
Portfolio Components, Activity, and Year -Over -Year Comparison
As of December 31, 2018, the portfolio totaled $83 million comprised of $58 million in cash and cash
equivalents and $25 million in longer term investments. The U.S. Bank depository account held $20
million in anticipation of a $13 million payment due early in January 2019 for the acquisition of Public
Works shops property under the Public Safety Plan. The intent is to keep the balance of this account
to a minimum and transfer any excess funds to the Local Government Investment Pool (LGIP)
account. The bank account doesn't earn interest but does earn a 1% credit (the rate prior to October
2018 was .45%) as an offset to banking costs. Since the LGIP daily yield has exceeded 2% since
August 2018 and has progressively moved higher (it was 2.49% on February 4, 2019), the bank
account is managed to maintain only the minimum amount needed. The following chart illustrates
the portfolio components at 12/31/18.

Policy Compliance and Liquidity Analysis
The portfolio profile is well within the range of all the investment policy parameters. There is currently
a good mix of investments with a range of maturity dates. Current investments allow for adequate
cash flow requirements. The yield benchmark of the 2-year treasury however was not met due to
the rise in the two-year rate over the past year and a half, and timing of the longer -term investment
purchases. With a slowing of interest rate hikes (see the Investment Environment discussion below)
and the maturing of $16 million of longer -term investments in 2019, opportunities to increase the
portfolio yield may be presented in 2019.
Investment Environment
The Federal Reserve raised interest rates in December 2018 for the fourth time in 2018 putting it at
its highest level since the spring of 2008. This contributed to an inverted yield curve in December
whereby the 5-year treasury rate was higher than the 2-year treasury rate. The chart below illustrates
this convergence of rates in November and December and the steep rise in rates beginning in
September 2017.

Time Period
The Federal Reserve recently indicated that it may raise interest rates twice in 2019 rather than
three times slowing the interest rate climb. The Fed reported that economic growth remained
solid and is expected to continue. However, the case for raising rates has weakened somewhat
because of sluggish inflation, slowing growth in Europe and China and the possibility of another
federal government shutdown. It has been reported that the Fed would be "patient" in evaluating
the health of the economy and that the Fed stood ready either to raise or to cut rates, depending
on economic conditions. The portfolio will continue to be managed to take advantage of
investment opportunities as they arise.
