13.0DIVERSIFICATION <br />The purpose of diversification is to reduce overall portfolio risk while attaining market rates <br />of return and to enable the City to meet all anticipated cash requirements. The investment <br />portfolio shall consist of various types of securities approved by state statute and this <br />Statement of Investments Policy. Investments shall vary in issuers, asset classes, <br />industries and maturities to meet City’s financial obligations. Diversifying the investment <br />portfolio will help mitigate the loss of funds as a result of failure of any one issuer. <br />Investments shall further be diversified between structures and imbedded options within <br />the security. <br />The investments shall be diversified by: <br />Limiting investments to avoid over-concentration in securities of a specific <br />issuer (excluding treasury bills). <br />Limiting investment in securities that have higher credit risks. <br />Limiting certificates of deposit to the maximum federally insured amount. <br />Investing in securities with varying maturities. <br />Investing a minimum percentage of the total portfolio as established by the <br />FMSA Investment Advisory Committee in highly marketable short-term <br />treasuries, checking accounts with interest, government pooled account, or <br />a combination of all three (See Section 4.1 (A)(iv)). <br />14.0MAXIMUM MATURITIES <br />14.1Maximum Maturities <br />To the extent possible, the City of Santa Ana will attempt to match its investments with <br />anticipated cash flow requirementsand thus maturities shall coincide as nearly as <br />possible with the anticipated need.
