NOTE 2 — DEPOSITS AND INVESTMENTS (CONTINUED) <br />Minnesota Statutes require that all deposits be protected by federal deposit insurance, corporate surety bond, <br />or collateral. The market value of collateral pledged must equal 110% of the deposits not covered by federal <br />deposit insurance or corporate surety bonds. Authorized collateral includes treasury bills, notes, and bonds; <br />issues of U.S. government agencies; general obligations rated "A" or better; revenue obligations rated "AA" <br />or better; irrevocable standard letters of credit issued by the Federal Home Loan Bank; and certificates of <br />deposit. Minnesota Statutes require that securities pledged as collateral be held in safekeeping in a <br />restricted account at the Federal Reserve Bank or in an account at a trust department of a commercial bank <br />or other financial institution that is not owned or controlled by the financial institution furnishing the <br />collateral. The City has no additional deposit policies addressing custodial credit risk. <br />At year end, the carrying amount of the City's deposits was $5,118,394 while the balance on the bank <br />records was $6,053,430. At December 31, 2015, all deposits were fully covered by federal depository <br />insurance, surety bonds, or by collateral held by the City's agent in the City's name. <br />C.

The City does <br />not have a formal investment policy addressing this risk, but typically limits its exposure by purchasing <br />insured or registered investments, or by the control of who holds the securities. <br />Credit risk — This is the risk that an issuer or other counterparty to an investment will not fulfill its <br />obligations. Minnesota Statutes limit the City's investments to direct obligations or obligations <br />guaranteed by the United States or its agencies; general obligations rated "A" or better; revenue <br />obligations rated "AA" or better; general obligations of the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency rated <br />"A" or better; commercial paper issued by the United States corporations or their Canadian subsidiaries, <br />rated of the highest quality category by at least two nationally recognized rating agencies, and maturing <br />in 270 days or less; time deposits that are fully insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation <br />or bankers acceptances of the United States banks and Guaranteed Investment Contracts guaranteed by <br />a United States commercial bank or domestic branch of a foreign bank, or a United States insurance <br />company, or their Canadian subsidiary, and with a credit quality in one of the top two highest categories <br />by a nationally recognized rating agency. The City's investment policies do not further address credit <br />risk. <br />71 <br />
