Investments of the enterprise funds are stated at cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of
discounts. The investment policies for all enterprise funds, with the exception of the Community Development
Administration, are the same as those of the State Treasurer. The Community Development Administration, an
agency of the Department of Housing and Community Development, is authorized to invest in obligations of the
U.S. Treasury, U.S. Government agencies and corporations, political subdivisions of the U.S., banker's
acceptances, repurchase agreements, corporate debt securities and certificates of deposit with foreign or
domestic banks. The U.S. Treasury and agency obligations and collateral for the repurchase agreements are held
by the fund's agent in the fund's name.
The Pension Trust Fund, in accordance with Article 73 B, Section 160 of the Annotated Code of Maryland, is
permitted to make investments subject to the terms, conditions, limitations, and restrictions imposed by the
Board of Trustees of the Maryland State Retirement and Pension Systems. The law further provides that not
more than 15% of the assets that are invested in common stocks may be invested in non-dividend paying common
stocks. The pension trust fund's investments are commingled in three combined investment funds. Two
investment funds consist principally of bonds and other fixed income investments while the other investment fund
consists principally of common stocks. Certain amounts totalling $583,677,000 (market value of $583,677,000) are
not invested in the investment funds, but are held as cash and cash equivalents. Investments of the pension trust
fund are stated at cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts.
