ALTERNATIVES:

investment deposits;
2. ; or
3. Provide other direction to staff.
ADVANTAGES:
Safety of principal is the foremost objective of the City. Investments are undertaken in a
manner that seeks to ensure the preservation of capital in the overall portfolio.
DISADVANTAGES:
Some level of risk is present in any investment transaction. Losses could be incurred due
to market price changes, technical cash flow complications such as the need to withdraw
a non-negotiable Time Certificate of Deposit early, or even the default of an issuer. To
minimize such risks, diversifications of the investment portfolio by institution and by
investment instruments are being used as much as is practical and prudent.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
The Statement of Investment Deposits is not a project subject to the California
or reasonably foreseeable indirect, physical change in the environment. (State CEQA
Guidelines, §§ 15060, subd. (c)(2)-(3), 15378.)
