1 Quarter 2012 Treasury Report — Summary and Narrative
June 5, 2012
The City's Investment Portfolio
The City's investment activities are governed by State regulations and the City of Yakima's
Investment Policy, as revised 9/06/11.
Snapshot of the Portfolio
The City's Investment Portfolio can be divided into two general categories:
1) A Liquidity Portfolio of overnight investments. This category generally consists only of
funds invested in the Local Government Investment Pool (LGIP) managed by the State
Treasurer.
2) A Security Portfolio of investments in various securities with maturities normally not to
exceed five years except when conditions warrant, and then up to eight years.
The effective yield on the City's entire Investment Portfolio for the quarter ending 3/31/12 was
1.31%, which is up ever so slightly from 2011 yields that ranged from 1.14% to 1.28 %. The
LGIP continues to be quite dull at 0.13 %, earning us a mere $600 to $700 per month on just
over $6 million. The security portfolio earned 1.51% as compared to 1.48% from the 4 quarter
of 2011 and was entirely responsible for the minor bump in yield. It should be noted that this
increase is arbitrary due to the call feature being executed on some of the lower yielding
securities in the portfolio. Currently, every one of our investment securities is yielding higher
than the current marketplace. This means that our yield will continue to fall as securities are
called and reinvestment can only be done at lower yields.
The City has used a strategy of purchasing longer term (up to 5 year) callable maturities to
enjoy a slightly higher yield with the expectation that the call feature will be exercised. This
strategy is fairly effective as long as rates are falling or steady. However, an aggressive use of
this strategy can backfire when rates rise, leaving the investor with a portfolio full of longer term
maturities that are below market rates. A dramatic spike in rates is considered a remote
possibility in our current economic environment. However, due to this risk, the City is quite
cautious in the use of Agency Callable securities. Fewer and fewer "deals" with higher coupons
are becoming available as mid -term rates (up to 5 years) have become fairly stagnant as well.
The Liquidity Portfolio is invested predominately with the State of Washington Investment Pool
and was 14% of the total portfolio as of quarter end. The yield continues to be very low at
approximately 13.6 basis points (0.136 %) in March. As funds have been needed for operations,
draws from the pool have not been replaced due to the cost of transferring funds relative to the
low interest rates. Higher cash balances are being maintained in the City's general accounts to
offset banking fees since the credit given for such balances is at a higher rate than the State
Pool is paying. Such cash balances are presented on page 4 of the financial report section of
this report. These cash balances are not considered to be part of the Liquidity Portfolio, but do
generate interest earnings for the City after offsetting bank service fees.
The Security Portfolio currently comprises 86% of the total, and includes mostly Federal Agency
Callable Bonds with an average yield of 1.51%. Agency yields continue downward due to the
call feature which enables the agency to refinance at lower rates as time passes. This trend
became noticeable in the City's investment portfolio in late 2009 and has continued steadily
through the current day. The trend is expected to continue as rates remain soft into the next
several quarters. Within the Security Portfolio is a new category termed "Other Investments."
There are currently two investments in this category: 1) a $500,000 - 5% coupon Bond issued
by Grays Harbor County purchased at a premium to generate an effective yield of 1.631%
through July 2015, and 2) a $250,000 certificate of deposit (PDPC insured) yielding 2.10%
through February 2015.
Income from investments and cash balances has been decreasing for several years due to
market and economic conditions. Cash and cash equivalent balances (investable cash) have
remained fairly constant while earnings rates have dropped significantly. Reduced earnings
continue to have a negative impact on the budget. Total interest earned over the past several
years is as follows: 2009 - $2,020,813; 2010 - $969,996; 2011 - $609,273; 2012 budgeted -
$537,410.
Investment Composition Strategy
The City looks to maintain an Investment Portfolio with a Liquidity Portfolio sufficient to cover
cash flow needs and provide a cushion for unusual and emergency expenditures.
The Security Portfolio contains predominately callable US government agency securities.
Callable agency securities serve three purposes:
(1) The City earns a higher coupon (yield) than it would have earned from a non - callable
security with the same maturity date and same issuer;
(2) The actual experienced maturity of a callable security is usually shorter than its stated
maturity due to its inherent call features. Calls on existing securities allow for a certain amount
of investment flexibility which can lead to higher current interest income much sooner than if the
securities were non - callable;
(3) By buying US Agency callable securities, the City's security investments have the direct or
implied backing of the US Government and as such, any of the City's securities could be sold
immediately at current market prices for cash if the need arose.
The City owns securities issued by US government- backed entities such as the Federal Home
Loan Bank ( "FHLB "), Freddie Mac ( "FHLMC "), Fannie Mae ( "FNMA "), and Federal Farm Credit
( "FFCB "). While the public stock of FHLMC and FNMA are currently suffering, they do have
lines of credit with, investment by, and the support of the US Treasury. The City's risk of Toss
due to credit exposure from any of these agencies is thought to be miniscule.
The City does not invest in any Structured Investment Vehicles (SIV's), Collaterized Mortgage
Obligations (CMO's), or Collateralized Debt Obligations (CDO's). These types of investments,
along with certain asset - backed Commercial Paper have much higher price and demand
volatility. The City has not purchased these types of instruments.
Bonded Debt
The City is in the process of refunding the 2003 Series B Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds.
Much for the same reason that our investments are being called, the City can benefit on the
debt side of the current interest rate environment. In refinancing our 2003 B bonds we will be
exercising the call feature on those who are holding them as investments and using the
refinancing proceeds to pay them off. We will achieve interest savings and real cash savings
over the remaining life of the bonds. Savings from refinancing are estimated to be about $1.2
million over the life of the bonds since the true interest cost decreased from 4.67% to 2.15 %.

A Local Improvement District is an instrument utilized by citizens to fund specific local
community improvements. This report identifies outstanding obligations relative to Local
Improvement Districts' bonds and notes payable. Once a Local Improvement District
bond or note is issued, there is a required minimum reserve which the City must maintain
so long as the bond or note is outstanding. This report also compares the current Local
Improvement Districts outstanding debt to the required reserve balance.
