            Effect of Loss of Required Rating

            An investment that requires a minimum rating does not qualify as an authorized investment during the period
            the investment does not have a minimum rating. The Investment Of cer shall take all prudent measures that
            are consistent with the City’s investment policy to liquidate the investment(s) that does not have the minimum
            rating (2256.021). In accordance with Section (2256.005(b)), the Investment Of cer shall monitor rating changes
            in  current  investments  by  keeping  a  monthly  record  of  ratings  issued  by  three  nationally  recognized  rating
            agencies.




            Investment Strategy

            The investment strategy by type of fund is as follows:

                . Operating Funds

            The  investment  strategy  for  operating  fund(s)  is  to  assure  that  anticipated  cash   ows  are  matched  with
            adequate investment liquidity. A secondary objective is to create a portfolio, which will experience minimum
            volatility during economic cycles. These funds shall not have an investment with a stated maturity greater than
            two years and the weighted average maturity shall not exceed eighteen months.

                . Debt Service Funds

            The  investment  strategy  for  debt  service  fund(s)  is  the  assurance  of  investment  liquidity  to  cover  the  debt
            service obligations on the required payment date. Investments purchased shall not have a stated  nal maturity
            date which exceeds the corresponding debt service payment date. The weighted average maturity shall not
            exceed one year.
                . Reserve Funds

            The investment strategy for reserve fund(s) is the assurance of investment liquidity adequate to cover the debt
            service  obligations  not  funded  by  debt  service  funds  on  the  required  payment  date.  Investment  of  reserve
            funds are controlled by their ordinance, resolution or indenture, and Federal and State law. Bond documents
            must be examined for each issue, for potential differences with this policy concerning investment instruments,
            maximum maturity or average life restrictions, call dates or sinking fund redemptions, and applicable arbitrage
            yields and rebate liability. Provisions contained in the bond documents will supersede provisions of this policy.
            Weighted average maturity shall be incompliance with bond requirements, as stated.

            Reserve  funds  will  be  invested  using  a  more  conservative  approach  than  the  current  standard  investment
            strategy  when  arbitrage  rebate  rules  require  refunding  excess  earnings.  All  excess  earnings  received  will  be
            segregated to allow a proper determination of interest income to be used in the arbitrage calculation.
