Demand Deposits The carrying amounts of the City’s deposits were $3,176,692 at June 30, 2024. Bank balances at that date were $4,165,534, the total amount of which was collateralized or insured with accounts held by the pledging financial institutions in the City’s name as discussed below. The California Government Code requires California banks and savings and loan associations to secure the City’s cash deposits by pledging securities as collateral. This Code states that collateral pledged in this manner shall have the effect of perfecting a security interest in such collateral superior to those of a general creditor. Thus, collateral for cash deposits is considered to be held in the City’s name. The market value of pledged securities must equal at least 110% of the City’s cash deposits. California law also allows institutions to secure City deposits by pledging first trust deed mortgage notes having a value of 150% of the City’s total cash deposits. The City may waive collateral requirements for cash deposits, which are fully insured up to $250,000 by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The City, however, has not waived the collateralization requirements. The City follows the practice of pooling cash and investments of all funds, except for funds deposited in escrow which were required by construction projects. Interest income earned on pooled cash and investments is allocated on an accounting period basis to the various funds based on the period-end cash and investment balances. (50)
