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 />Type <br />Minnesota Municipal Money Market Trust Fund <br />Federal Farm Credit Banks <br />Federal Home Loan Bank <br />Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corp. <br />Federal National Mortgage Assn. <br />Negotiable CDs <br />Municipal Bonds <br />Mutual Fund <br />Total <br />Credit <br />Quality Rating <br />Aa2 <br />Aaa/AA+ <br />Aaa/AA+ <br />Aaa/AA+ <br />Aaa/AA+ <br />Not Rated <br />A -Aaa <br />Not Rated <br />Amount <br />$ 66,659 <br />300,878 <br />1,302,457 <br />1,382,033 <br />3,002,642 <br />12,077,180 <br />4,986,283 <br />271,338 <br />$ 23,389,470 <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. <br />
