For purposes of identifying risk of investing public <br />funds, the balances and related restrictions are summarized as follows. <br />A. Deposits <br />Custodial Credit Risk — Deposits: This is the risk that in the event of a bank failure, the City's deposits <br />may not be returned to it. The City (including Elk River Municipal Utilities) has an investment policy in <br />place to address custodial credit risk for deposits, stating all deposits and investments must be in <br />compliance with Minnesota Statutes 118A, with collateralization levels of 110% of the market value of <br />the principal and accrued interest. As of December 31, 2021, the City's bank balance of $32,369,479 <br />was not exposed to custodial credit risk because it was insured and fully collateralized by federal <br />depository insurance.

State law <br />limits investments in state and local securities and commercial paper to those with specified rating by <br />nationally recognized rating agencies. U.S. treasury obligations are not considered to have credit risk. <br />The City's investment policy does not further limit the ratings of their investments. <br />67 <br />
