The investment income derived from the pooled investment shall be allocated to the contributing funds, net of all banking and investing expenses, based upon the proportion of the respective average balances relative to the total pooled balance. Investment income shall be distributed to the individual funds not less than annually. 2. Funds Included in the Policy The provisions of this Policy shall apply to all financial assets of the City as accounted for in the City's Comprehensive Annual Financial Report, a) General Fund b) Special Revenue Funds c) Capital Project Funds d) Enterprise Funds e) Internal Service Funds f) Trust and Agency Funds g) Permanent Endowment Funds h) Any new fund created unless specifically exempted If the City invests funds on behalf of another agency and, if that agency does not have its own investment policy, this Policy shall govern the agency's investments. 3. Funds Excluded from this Policy Bond Proceeds - Investment of bond proceeds will be made in accordance with applicable bond indentures. B. INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES The City's funds shall be invested in accordance with all applicable City policies and codes, State statutes, and Federal regulations, and in a manner designed to accomplish the following objectives, which are listed in priority order: 1. Safety Preservation of principal is the foremost objective of the investment program. Investments of the City shall be undertaken in a manner that seeks to ensure the preservation of capital in the overall portfolio. The objective shall be to mitigate credit risk and interest rate risk. To attain this objective, the City shall diversify its investments by investing funds PJ F -1 among several financial institutions and a variety of securities offering independent returns. a) Credit Risk The City shall minimize credit risk, the risk of loss due to the failure of the security issuer or backer, by: • Limiting investments in securities that have higher credit risks, pre - qualifying the financial institutions, broker /dealers, intermediaries, and advisors with which the City will do business • Diversifying the investment portfolio so as to minimize the impact any one industry/ investment class can have on the portfolio b) Interest Rate Risk To minimize the negative impact of material changes in the market value of securities in the portfolio, the City shall: • Structure the investment portfolio so that securities mature concurrent with cash needs to meet anticipated demands, thereby avoiding the need to sell securities on the open market prior to maturity • Invest in securities of varying maturities 2. Liquidity The City's investment portfolio shall remain sufficiently liquid to enable the City to meet all operating requirements which might be reasonably anticipated without requiring a sale of securities. Since all possible cash demands cannot be anticipated, the portfolio should consist largely of securities with active secondary or resale markets. A portion of the portfolio also may be placed in money market mutual funds or LAIF which offer same -day liquidity for short -term funds. 3. Yield The City's investment portfolio shall be designed with the objective of attaining a benchmark rate of return throughout budgetary and economic cycles, commensurate with the City's investment risk constraints and the liquidity characteristics of the portfolio. Return on investment is of secondary importance compared to the safety and liquidity objectives described above. The core of investments is limited to relatively low risk securities in anticipation of earning a fair return relative to the risk being assumed. C. STANDARDS OF CARE 1. Prudence 3 F -1 The standard of prudence to be used for managing the City's investment program is California Government Code Section 53600.3, the prudent investor standard, which states that "when investing, reinvesting, purchasing, acquiring, exchanging, selling, or managing public funds, a trustee shall act with care, skill, prudence, and diligence under the circumstances then prevailing, including, but not limited to, the general economic conditions and the anticipated needs of the agency, that a prudent person acting in a like capacity and familiarity with those matters would use in the conduct of funds of a like character and with like aims, to safeguard the principal and maintain the liquidity needs of the agency." The City's overall investment program shall be designed and managed with a degree of professionalism that is worthy of the public trust. The City recognizes that no investment is totally without risk and that the investment activities of the City are a matter of public record. Accordingly, the City recognizes that occasional measured losses may occur in a diversified portfolio and shall be considered within the context of the overall portfolio's return, provided that adequate diversification has been implemented and that the sale of a security is in the best long -term interest of the City. The Finance Director and authorized investment personnel acting in accordance with established procedures and exercising due diligence shall be relieved of personal responsibility for an individual security's credit risk or market price changes, provided that deviations from expectations are reported in a timely fashion to the City Council and appropriate action is taken to control adverse developments. 2. Ethics and Conflicts of Interest Elected officials and employees involved in the investment process shall refrain from personal business activity that could conflict with proper execution of the City's investment program, or could impair or create the appearance of an impairment of their ability to make impartial investment decisions. Employees and investment officials shall subordinate their personal investment transactions to those of the City. In addition, City Council members, the City Manager, and the Finance Director shall file a Statement of Economic Interests each year as required by California Government Code Section 87203 and regulations of the Fair Political Practices Commission. 3. Delegation of Authority Authority to manage the City's investment program is derived from the Charter of the City of Newport Beach section 605 (j). The Finance Director CI F -1 shall assume the title of and act as City Treasurer and with the approval of the City Manager appoint deputies annually as necessary to act under the provisions of any law requiring or permitting action by the City Treasurer. The Finance Director may then delegate the authority to conduct investment transactions and to manage the operation of the investment portfolio to other specifically authorized staff members. No person may engage in an investment transaction except as expressly provided under the terms of this Policy. The City may engage the support services of outside investment advisors with respect to its investment program, so long as it can be demonstrated that these services produce a net financial advantage or necessary financial protection of the City's financial resources. Such companies must be registered under the Investment Advisors Act of 1940, be weIl- established and exceptionally reputable. Members of the staff of such companies who will have primary responsibility for managing the City's investments must have a working familiarity with the special requirements and constraints of investing municipal funds in general and this City's funds in particular. These firms must insure that the portion of the portfolio under their management complies with various concentration and other constraints specified herein, and contractually agree to conform to all provisions of governing law and the collateralization and other requirements of this Policy. Selection and retention of broker /dealers by investment advisors shall be at their sole discretion and dependent upon selection and retention criteria as stated in the Uniform Application for Investment Advisor Registration and related Amendments (SEC Form ADV 2A), 4. Internal Controls The Finance Director is responsible for establishing and maintaining a system of internal controls. The internal controls shall be designed to prevent losses of public funds arising from fraud, employee error, and misrepresentation by third parties, unanticipated changes in financial markets, or imprudent action by City employees and officers. The internal structure shall be designed to provide reasonable assurance that these objectives are met. The concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that (1) the cost of a control should not exceed the benefits likely to be derived, and (2) the valuation of costs and benefits requires estimates and judgments by management. D. BANKING SERVICES Banking services for the City shall be provided by FDIC insured banks approved to provide depository and other banking services. To be eligible, a bank shall 5 lei qualify as a depository of public funds in the State of California as defined in California Government Code Section 53630.5 and shall secure deposits in excess of FDIC insurance coverage in accordance with California Government Code Section 53652.

Report voluntarily to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, or 3. Qualify under Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Rule 15c3 -1 (Uniform Net Capital Rule). F. SAFEKEEPING AND CUSTODY OF ASSETS The Finance Director shall select one or more banks to provide safekeeping and custodial services for the City. A Safekeeping Agreement approved by the City shall be executed with each custodian bank prior to utilizing that bank's safekeeping services. Custodian banks will be selected on the basis of their ability to provide services for the City's account and the competitive pricing of their safekeeping related services. The purchase and sale of securities and repurchase agreement transactions shall be settled on a delivery versus payment basis. All securities shall be perfected in the name of the City. Sufficient evidence to title shall be consistent with modern investment, banking and commercial practices. All investment securities, except non - negotiable Certificates of Deposit, Money Market Funds and local government investment pools, purchased by the City will be delivered by book entry and will be held in third -party safekeeping by a City approved custodian bank, its correspondent bank or its Depository Trust Company (DTC) participant account. 0 F -1 All Fed wireable book entry securities owned by the City shall be held in the Federal Reserve system in a customer account for the custodian bank which will name the City as "customer."
