PROBLEM/ISSUE STATEMENT

Deposit-type securities (i.e., certificates of deposit) shall be collateralized according to Montana Code Annotated Section 7-6-207.

On December 31, 2010,  the City had certificates of deposit at First Interstate Bank for $2,562,976; $44,375,504 in the US Bank Repurchase Account; and $11,500,000 in two certificates of deposit at US Bank, Billings.

Because First Interstate Bank and US Bank’s net worth ratios to total assets ratio are over 6%, the City is required to have a minimum of 50% of the deposits covered by pledged securities. First Interstate Bank has collateralized the City’s deposits with 97.5% in pledged securities. US Bank has collateralized two certificates of deposit with 120% in pledged securities. The Repurchase Account is collateralized with 102% in pledged securities.
