12 | of 1986, as now or hereafter amended or succeeded, no public | ||||||
13 | agency may
purchase or invest in instruments which constitute | ||||||
14 | repurchase agreements,
and no financial institution may enter | ||||||
15 | into such an agreement with or on
behalf of any public agency | ||||||
16 | unless the instrument and the transaction meet
the following | ||||||
17 | requirements:
| ||||||
18 | (1) The securities, unless registered or inscribed in | ||||||
19 | the name of the
public agency, are purchased through banks | ||||||
20 | or trust companies authorized to
do business in the State | ||||||
21 | of Illinois.
| ||||||
22 | (2) An authorized public officer after ascertaining | ||||||
23 | which firm will give
the most favorable rate of interest, | ||||||
24 | directs the custodial bank to
"purchase" specified | ||||||
25 | securities from a designated institution.
The "custodial | ||||||
26 | bank" is the bank or trust company, or agency of
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | government, which acts for the public agency in connection | ||||||
2 | with repurchase
agreements involving the investment of | ||||||
3 | funds by the public agency. The
State Treasurer may act as | ||||||
4 | custodial bank for public agencies executing
repurchase | ||||||
5 | agreements. To the extent the Treasurer acts in this | ||||||
6 | capacity,
he is hereby authorized to pass through to such | ||||||
7 | public agencies any charges
assessed by the Federal Reserve | ||||||
8 | Bank.
| ||||||
9 | (3) A custodial bank must be a member bank of the | ||||||
10 | Federal Reserve System
or maintain accounts with member | ||||||
11 | banks. All transfers of book-entry
securities must be | ||||||
12 | accomplished on a Reserve Bank's computer records
through a | ||||||
13 | member bank of the Federal Reserve System. These securities | ||||||
14 | must
be credited to the public agency on the records of the | ||||||
15 | custodial bank and
the transaction must be confirmed in | ||||||
16 | writing to the public agency by
the custodial bank.
| ||||||
17 | (4) Trading partners shall be limited to banks or trust | ||||||
18 | companies
authorized to do business in the State of | ||||||
19 | Illinois or to registered primary
reporting dealers.
| ||||||
20 | (5) The security interest must be perfected.
| ||||||
21 | (6) The public agency enters into a written master | ||||||
22 | repurchase agreement
which outlines the basic | ||||||
23 | responsibilities and liabilities of both buyer and
seller.
| ||||||
24 | (7) Agreements shall be for periods of 330 days or | ||||||
25 | less.
| ||||||
26 | (8) The authorized public officer of the public agency |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | informs the
custodial bank in writing of the maturity | ||||||
2 | details of the repurchase agreement.
| ||||||
3 | (9) The custodial bank must take delivery of and | ||||||
4 | maintain the
securities in its custody for the account of | ||||||
5 | the public agency and confirm
the transaction in writing to | ||||||
6 | the public agency. The Custodial Undertaking
shall provide | ||||||
7 | that the custodian takes possession of the securities
| ||||||
8 | exclusively for the public agency; that the securities are | ||||||
9 | free of any
claims against the trading partner; and any | ||||||
10 | claims by the custodian are
subordinate to the public | ||||||
11 | agency's claims to rights to those securities.
| ||||||
12 | (10) The obligations purchased by a public agency may | ||||||
13 | only be sold or
presented for redemption or payment by the | ||||||
14 | fiscal agent bank or trust
company holding the obligations | ||||||
15 | upon the written instruction of the
public agency or | ||||||
16 | officer authorized to make such investments.
| ||||||
17 | (11) The custodial bank shall be liable to the public | ||||||
18 | agency for any
monetary loss suffered by the public agency | ||||||
19 | due to the failure of the
custodial bank to take and | ||||||
20 | maintain possession of such securities.
| ||||||
21 | (i) Notwithstanding the foregoing restrictions on | ||||||
22 | investment in
instruments constituting repurchase agreements | ||||||
23 | the Illinois Housing
Development Authority may invest in, and | ||||||
24 | any financial institution with
capital of at least $250,000,000 | ||||||
25 | may act as custodian for, instruments
that constitute | ||||||
26 | repurchase agreements, provided that the Illinois Housing
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | Development Authority, in making each such investment, | ||||||
2 | complies with the
safety and soundness guidelines for engaging | ||||||
3 | in repurchase transactions
applicable to federally insured | ||||||
4 | banks, savings banks, savings and loan
associations or other | ||||||
5 | depository institutions as set forth in the Federal
Financial | ||||||
6 | Institutions Examination Council Policy Statement Regarding
| ||||||
7 | Repurchase Agreements and any regulations issued, or which may | ||||||
8 | be issued by the
supervisory federal authority pertaining | ||||||
9 | thereto and any amendments thereto;
provided further that the | ||||||
10 | securities shall be either (i) direct general
obligations of, | ||||||
11 | or obligations the payment of the principal of and/or interest
| ||||||
12 | on which are unconditionally guaranteed by, the United States | ||||||
13 | of America or
(ii) any obligations of any agency, corporation | ||||||
14 | or subsidiary thereof
controlled or supervised by and acting as | ||||||
15 | an instrumentality of the United
States Government pursuant to | ||||||
16 | authority granted by the Congress of the United
States and | ||||||
17 | provided further that the security interest must be perfected | ||||||
18 | by
either the Illinois Housing Development Authority, its | ||||||
19 | custodian or its agent
receiving possession of the securities | ||||||
20 | either physically or transferred through
a nationally | ||||||
21 | recognized book entry system.
| ||||||
22 | (j) In addition to all other investments authorized
under | ||||||
23 | this Section, a community college district may
invest public | ||||||
24 | funds in any mutual funds that
invest primarily in corporate | ||||||
25 | investment grade or global government short term
bonds.
| ||||||

| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | government short

2 | assets of at least $100 million and
that are rated at the time | ||||||
3 | of purchase as one of the 10 highest classifications
| ||||||
4 | established by a recognized rating service. The investments | ||||||
5 | shall be subject
to approval by the local community college | ||||||
6 | board of trustees. Each community
college board of trustees | ||||||
7 | shall develop a policy regarding the percentage of
the | ||||||
8 | college's investment portfolio that can be invested in such | ||||||
9 | funds.
| ||||||
10 | Nothing in this Section shall be construed to authorize an
| ||||||
11 | intergovernmental risk management entity to accept the deposit | ||||||
12 | of public funds
except for risk management purposes.
