This is measured by the assignment of a rating by a <br />nationally recognized statistical rating organization.

Its investments are valued at amortized cost, which <br />approximates market value in accordance with Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940. The <br />amortized cost method of valuation values a security at its cost on the date of purchase and thereafter <br />assumes a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium, regardless of the impact of <br />fluctuating interest rates on the fair value of instruments. <br />The Minnesota Municipal Money Market Trust Fund does not have its own credit rating. MBIA, Inc., who <br />administers the Minnesota Municipal Money Market Fund Trust holds an organization credit rating of Aa2. <br />For an investment, custodial credit risk is the risk that, in the event of failure of the counterparty, the City <br />will not be able to recover the value of its investment or collateral securities that are in the possession of an <br />outside party. The City's investment policy doesn't specifically address custodial credit risk. <br />45 <br />Credit <br />Type <br />Quality Rating <br />Amount <br />Minnesota Municipal Money Market Trust Fund <br />Aa2 <br />$ 252,220 <br />Federal Home Loan Bank <br />Aaa/AA+ <br />1,375,394 <br />Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corp. <br />Aaa/AA+ <br />300,167 <br />Federal National Mortgage Assn. <br />Aaa/AA+ <br />1,995,937 <br />Negotiable CDs <br />Not Rated <br />16,947,235 <br />Municipal Bonds <br />A-Aaa <br />9,123,402 <br />Mutual Fund <br />Not Rated <br />1,528,538 <br />Total <br />$ 31,522,893 <br />The Minnesota Municipal Money Market Fund Trust is a common law trust organized in accordance with <br />the Minnesota Joint Powers Act, which invests only in investment instruments allowable under Minnesota <br />statutes as described on the previous page.
