<br />Generally, credit risk is the risk that an issuer of an investment will not fulfill its obligation to the holder of
<br />the investment. The City's policy to minimize credit risk includes limiting investing funds to those
<br />allowable under Minnesota Statute 118A, annually appointing all financial institutions where investments
<br />are held, and diversifying the investment portfolio. This is measured by the assignment of a rating by a
<br />nationally recognized statistical rating organization. The following chart summarizes year-end ratings for
<br />the City's investments as rated by Moody's Investors Service:

<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. 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.
