The Local and the Agency Funds are considered current operating funds, and cash in excess of current demand deposits is considered current working capital. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation covers the temporary investments in each fund, and balances in excess of the federally insured amounts are collateralized in accordance with the requirements of the Illinois Legislative Code Section 105/6a-6. Investments are in accordance with policies adopted by the IMSA Board of Trustees pursuant to the Public Funds Investment Act of the State of Illinois.
