CITY OF LINO LAKES, MINNESOTA <br />NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS <br />December 31, 2022 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />C. INVESTMENT RISKS <br /> <br />Custodial Credit Risk – Investments – For investments in securities, custodial credit risk is the risk <br />that in the event of failure of the counterparty to a transaction, the City will not be able to recover <br />the value of its investment securities that are in the possession of an outside party. Investments in <br />investment pools and money markets are not evidenced by securities that exist in physical or book <br />entry form, and therefore are not subject to custodial credit risk disclosures. The City’s investment <br />policy requires its brokers be licensed with the appropriate federal and state agencies. A minimum <br />capital requirement of $5,000,000 and at least five years of operation is mandatory. Investments in <br />securities are held by the City’s broker-dealers. The securities at each broker-dealer are insured <br />$500,000 through SIPC. Each broker-dealer has provided additional protection by providing <br />additional insurance. This insurance is subject to aggregate limits applied to all of the broker- <br />dealer’s accounts. <br /> <br />Interest Rate Risk – Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in interest rates will adversely affect <br />the fair value of an investment. Generally, the longer the maturity of an investment, the greater the <br />sensitivity of its fair value to changes in market interest rates. The City’s policy to minimize <br />interest rate risk includes investing primarily in short-term securities and structuring the investment <br />portfolio so that securities mature to meet cash requirements for ongoing operations. <br /> <br />Credit Risk – Credit risk is the risk that an issuer of an investment will not fulfill its obligation to <br />the holder of the investment. The City’s policy to minimize credit risk includes limiting investing <br />funds to those allowable under Minnesota Statute 118A, annually appointing all financial <br />institutions where investments are held, and diversifying the investment portfolio. This is measured <br />by the assignment of a rating by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization. <br /> <br />Concentration of Credit Risk – Concentration of credit risk is the risk of loss that may be attributed <br />to the magnitude of a government’s investment in a single issuer. The City places no limit on the <br />amount it may invest in any one issuer. At December 31, 2022, no individual investments <br />exceeded 5% of the City’s total investment portfolio. <br /> <br /> <br />Note 3 RECEIVABLES <br /> <br />A.
