Report on investment inventory statistics at September 30, 2023
Body
Dear Sir:
Attached is a report of Investment Inventory Statistics at September 30, 2023, and a summary of Financial Market Statistics for the third quarter of 2023.
The average interest rate of the investment inventory at the end of September was 3.95%, an increase from 3.94% at June 30, 2023. The total par value of the inventory was $866,591,283.99 at month-end. The average level of investment for the quarter was 100% of available funds, exclusive of required compensating cash balances.
The District’s portfolio underperformed its benchmark, the 90-day Treasury Bill, whose twelve-month rolling average yield was 4.83% as of September 30th. The Federal Funds rate, a daily borrowing rate between banks, was 5.34% at month-end, reflecting the recent increases to interest rates.
Respectfully Submitted, Mary Ann Boyle, Treasurer, MAB
