contained in California Government Code Section
53646.The report includes all investments

Market Themes
Economic Data & Conditions
•Inflation stubbornly continues to lag the Fed’s 2% target
•Average monthly job growth has slowed throughout 2019
•Recent trade conflicts continue to weigh on the
manufacturing sector
•Consumer confidence remains historically high
•S&P 500 ended the third quarter up 18.7% year-to-date
•Investment grade corporate issuance broke records in
September
Market indicators are mixed,
but a recession does not
appear imminent
The Fed elected to cut rates
twice for the first time in over a
decade

expectations have declined

Market Considerations
•A deteriorating U.S. economic
outlook—made worse by
ongoing trade tensions—
prompted the Fed to cut rates
by 50 basis points (0.50%)
throughout the quarter,
lowering their target rate to a
range of 1.75-2.00%.
•While Fed Chair Jay
Powell characterized
the move as a “mid-
cycle policy
adjustment,” the
market expects at least
one more rate cut in
2019.

What we are watching…
•The OCED projected the world
growth outlook at 3.2% four months
ago, and they recently revised this
figure down to 2.9% for 2019.
•“The global economy has
become increasingly
fragile and uncertain, with
growth slowing and
downside risks continuing
to mount” –OECD, 9/19/19
•Rising uncertainties, weaker growth
prospects and low inflation are
keeping investors on edge. While a
U.S. recession is not the immediate
forecast, risks are rising including
escalating U.S.-China trade tensions
and slowing growth abroad.

Current Cash & Investment Summary
The following is a summary of the City’s cash and
investments based on market value, as of
September 30, 2019, compared with the prior
quarter.

Current Cash & Investment Summary
There are several factors which
result in changes in cash and
investment balances from month-
to-month and quarter-to-quarter,
dependent on the receipt of
revenues or a large disbursement.
•Some major City revenues are received on a periodic rather than a
monthly basis. Property Tax is received in December, January,
April, and May of each year. Transient Occupancy Tax is received
monthly but varies considerably due to seasonality.
•Payments for bonded indebtedness or large capital projects can
reduce the portfolio substantially in the quarter in which they
occur.
•The City pays its CalPERS obligation in a lump sum at the
beginning of the fiscal year to achieve interest savings.
Factors

Securities
Securities in the City’s
portfolio are priced by IDC,
an independent pricing
service at the end of every
month. In some cases, the
City may have investments
with a current market value
that is greater or less than
the recorded value. These
changes in market value are
due to fluctuations in the
marketplace having no
effect on yield, as the City
does not intend to sell
securities prior to maturity.
Nevertheless, these market
changes can impact the
total value of the portfolio.

Investment Portfolio Benefits All Funds
The City’s cash and investment portfolio represents
money from all City funds, including the General Fund,
enterprise funds (Water, Sewer, Parking, Transit),
special revenue funds (Tourism, Downtown
Assessments) capital projects funds, and other funds
which are restricted to specific purposes.
In general, monies held by the City are either allocated
by the City Council for spending or are purposefully
retained in reserve. For example, the money in the
Capital Outlay Fund has been identified to provide
particular capital projects for the community, and
there is a plan for spending down the cash balance as
the projects progress. Balances held in reserve per the
City’s financial policies equate to 20% of operating
budget. For fiscal year 2019-20, they are as follows in
the chart to the left.
Fund FY 2019–20
General $ 10,230,000
Water $ 4,572,000
Sewer $ 2,844,000
Parking $539,000
Transit $820,000
Tourism $100,000

Investment Objectives
The investment objectives of the City of San Luis Obispo are first, to provide
safety of principal to ensure the preservation of capital in the overall portfolio;
second, to provide sufficient liquidity to meet all operating requirements; and
third, to earn a commensurate rate of return consistent with the constraints
imposed by the safety and liquidity objectives. The City follows the practice of
pooling cash and investments for all funds under its direct control. Funds held
by outside fiscal agents under provisions of bond indentures are maintained
separately. Interest earned on pooled cash and investments is allocated
quarterly to the various Quarterly Investment Report funds based on the
respective fund’s average quarterly cash balance. Interest earned from cash
and investments with fiscal agents is credited directly to the related accounts.
It is common for governments to pool the cash and investments of various
funds to improve investment performance. By pooling funds, the city can
benefit from economies of scale, diversification, liquidity, and ease of
administration. The City uses the services of an investment advisor, PFM Asset
Management, to manage a portion of the City’s portfolio. The City’s strategy is
to retain approximately 25% of the portfolio to manage its day-to-day cash
flow needs, while PFM’s focus is on longer-term investment management. In
addition, the City has retained direct control of several investments that had
been acquired before the City began to use investment advisors. All
investments are held by the City in a safe keeping account with Bank of New
York Mellon, except for investments held by trustees related to bond
financings, which are held by either US Bank or Bank of New York Mellon.
