Overview

The Treasurer’s Office is in charge of investing state and local taxpayer dollars. Through the Community Development Link Deposit and Access to Capital Programs, the Treasurer’s Office deposits funds via time deposits (amounts over the FDIC limit will require collateral) in Approved Program Depositories (banks, credit unions, and savings and loan institutions statewide).


In addition, note that a safety and soundness review of your institutions will be conducted by our office.
