Background:
A "Mark to Market" adjustment is required at each quarter end to recognize any change in value of the portfolio in the event that securities would need to be liquidated. Fair values are determined by our custodial bank.
At September 30, 2018, the market adjustment was a unrealized loss of $1,661,498.45. This loss is a paper loss only, resulting from shifts in interest rates. Since the City typically holds securities until maturity, loss of principal does not occur.
Impact/Analysis:
As of September 30, 2018 the average yield on the portfolio was 1.6348%
