Credit RiskInvest in high quality securities and has a staff of credit analysts unequaled in the industry
Market RiskUse active portfolio management to limit its clients exposure to market risk.
Reinvestment Risk
Sophisticated option adjusted return analysis for security evaluation to limit a portfolio’s exposure to risk.
◊ Safety of Principal: Preserving Principal by selecting investments in accordance with the investment policy
◊ Liquidity of Assets: Ensuring ability to provide sufficient available funding for liquidity needs
◊ Return on Assets: Optimize returns within the established investment parameters
Long Term Investment Strategy
High Quality Investments
Custom Portfolios with an average AAA rating based on state statutes, investment policy requirements, and market conditions
Adequate Liquidity
Maturity distribution based on the cash flow analysis to enhance the performance
Historical Performance
Proven portfolio management, strong credit research and a track record of performance with less risk than
Safety first philosophy with a diversified strategy to lower return volatility over a long horizon

Investment Objectives
Investment Objectives for Public Funds
◘ Safety
◘ Liquidity
◘ Yield (Return on Assets)
◘ Compliance with Laws and Investment Policy
◘ Dynamic
◘ Limited Portfolio and Security Volatility
◘ Ease of Implementation and Understanding
5
Maturity and Liquidity
Maturity Requirements should be based on
◘ Type of portfolio (Liquidity Assets versus Core Assets)
◘ Security Type (U.S. Treasury, Federal Agency)
◘ Risk Tolerance (Volatility)
Liquidity Requirements should:
◘ Provide liquidity to meet anticipated day to day operational needs for a specific period of time
◘ Deposited in AAAm MMF or AAA rated open market securities
◘ A specific maturity limitation on Liquidity Assets
6
Reporting by Portfolio
Liquidity Portfolios typically reported on Yield on Cost (Passive Strategy)
◘ Historically Liquidity Portfolios in Florida have been reported on yield on cost and compared to short term investments such as the Florida SBA or the S&P Money Market Index
◘ Many investment officers are utilizing money market fund indexes as a benchmark for Liquidity Portfolios
Core Asset Portfolios typically reported on Total Return (Active Strategy)
◘ The CFA Institute (formerly AIMR) has established total return as the standard for calculating return on actively managed investment portfolios
◘ This method takes into account all realized and unrealized gains and losses and a time weighting of cash flows
7
Interest Rate (Price Fluctuation Risk)
Bond Prices and Interest Rates are Inversely Related
◘ Interest Rate Risk refers to price fluctuations as a result of changes in interest rates
◘ Bond prices tend to rise in value as interest rates fall, and prices fall when interest rates rise
◘ As a general rule, the longer the maturity, the greater the degree of price volatility
Duration is a measure of correlation of Time to Maturity and Price Volatility
◘ Duration a more accurate measure for time to maturity by factoring in cash flows ◘ A Bond’s duration is dependent on timing of cash flows, call and put option provisions and
final maturity

Risks Defined
Several factors can impact the liquidity of an investment
◘ Ability to sell at a competitive price due to supply and demand constraints
◘ Volatility in the market and time to maturity
◘ Restrictions that result in redemption penalties
◘ Call and Put Options, Security Sector, Issuer
Credit Risk - default or decline in security value due to Issuer financial conditions
◘ Arguably the biggest issue in the current environment
◘ Measures the additional return required from an investor to lend money to the institution
◘ Increases or decreases with changes in ratings
◘ Regulatory actions can also impact the risk of an issuer
Risk Interest and/or Principal will be reinvested at a lower rate of return than the current interest rate
◘ Short term securities have high reinvestment risk (MMF, Discount Notes)
◘ Securities with higher coupons have higher reinvestment risk than lower coupons
◘ Mortgage Backed Securities have higher reinvestment risk
◘ Callable Securities have high reinvestment risk
9
Making Investment Decisions
Several Key Decisions are Involved when Implementing an Investment Strategy
◘ Maintain an Updated Investment Policy
◘ Consider the results of the Cash Flow Analysis
◘ Determine Risk Tolerance
◘ Determine Appropriate Target Duration
◘ Evaluate Market Conditions and Economic Data
◘ Consider Historical Perspective and the Current Environment
◘ Understand Benefits (Enhanced Earnings, Dynamic Management Approach) and Risks involved with various Investment Strategies (Liquidity, Reinvestment, Credit)
◘ Assess the relative value of each maturity and sector
◘ Implement an Active and/or Passive Strategy for Core and Liquidity Funds based on Investment Management Goals and Objectives
10
Treasury Inflation Protected Securities (TIPS)
◘ Direct obligations of the U.S. Government (full faith and credit)
◘ Principal is protected from inflation
◘ Principal adjustment tied to CPI-U index
◘ Treasury guarantees payment of par at maturity
TIPS – How they work
◘ Issued with a fixed coupon
◘ Semiannual coupon payments
◘ Principal adjusted according to an index based on the Consumer Price Index
◘ Semiannual payments are adjusted based on the fixed coupon and adjusted par
◘ Less volatility in certain interest rate environments as result of adjusting interest payment
◘ Can be purchased through Auction or on secondary market
11
Authorized Investments
Identify Cash Flow Components◘ The best strategy is a fund by fund review
Determine the Degree of Certainty and Predictability◘ Have past events skewed historical fund balances◘ Are there known future events that may impact fund balances
Construct A Cash Flow Forecast◘ Utilize historical information to develop a cash flow analysis based on timing of
revenues and expenditures◘ Only include those funds appropriate for consideration of longer term investment
strategies
Conduct Periodic Reviews and Updates◘ Cash flow analysis should be conducted at least annually and contain at least 2 years
of information◘ Compare prior projections with actual results for ongoing certainty and predictability◘ Identify trends and determine the expectation of continuation of trends based on
internal (fee increases) and external (interest on investments) factors

Cash Flows and Portfolio Strategies
62
Developing a Cash Flow Analysis
Cash flows are typically cyclical, and also have a seasonality affect. One time events such as bond proceeds and grants should be excluded.
Historical and projected analysis establish trends and assist with the estimation of future cash flows based on internal and external events and impact on short term and core assets
◊ A cash flow analysis establishes the foundation for a successful, effective investment program
◊ One time events such as grants and bond proceeds should be excluded from the general analysis
◊ The analysis can be conducted on a fund-by-fund and/or pooled approach
◊ Historical balances can provide an indication of future trends
◊ Internal and external factors should be considered for projecting future asset balances
◊ The analysis should be updated annually to compare projected vs. actual results
◊ An appropriate approach is to analyze multiple scenarios to determine short term and core assets
