RE: November 2020 Investment Transactions
The investment transactions for November 2020 were:
Matured:
• $1,000,000 US Treasury November 30, 2020
Called
• None
Purchased:
• None – all proceeds transferred to the City’s Account on deposit with the State
Treasurer’s Local Government Investment Pool (LGIP)
Since Dec. 31, 2019, the laddered portfolio of treasuries, agencies and corporates has decreased
by $28,500,000 LGIP balance has increased by $37,000,000.
During the current market volatility, the range of investment options for 1- to 3- year maturities
during November fluctuated slightly, between 0.10% to 0.26%. CDs range from 0.05% to 0.15%.
The LGIP has an average weighted maturity of about 47 days, so its yield (0.15237% at 11/30) has
continued to fall to about that range, however there continues to be no advantage to purchasing
an investment with lower yield “locking in” low rates.
This monthly report of all investment transactions complies with RCW 35.39.032 (“The
responsible official or committee shall make a monthly report of all investment transactions to the
city legislative authority”).
