Sec. 5.7. (a) The fiscal body of a political subdivision may adopt an investment policy authorizing the investment of public funds of the political subdivision for more than two (2) years and not more than five (5) years. The policy must:

(1) be in writing;

(2) be adopted at a public meeting;

(3) provide for the investment of public funds with the approval of the investing officer;

(4) provide that the investments must be made in accordance with this article;

(5) limit the total investments outstanding under this section to not more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the total portfolio of public funds invested by the political subdivision, including balances in transaction accounts; and

(6) state a date on which the policy expires, which may not be more than four (4) years after the date on which the policy takes effect.

     (b) A policy adopted by a fiscal body under subsection (a) remains in effect only through the date of expiration established in the policy, which may not be more than four (4) years after the date on which the policy takes effect.

     (c) A fiscal body that has adopted a written investment policy under subsection (a) may adopt an ordinance authorizing its investing officer to make investments having a stated final maturity that is:

(1) more than two (2) years; but

(2) not more than five (5) years;

after the date of purchase or entry into a repurchase agreement.

     (d) An ordinance adopted by a fiscal body under subsection (c) and the power to make an investment described in subsection (c) expire on the date on which the policy expires, which may not be more than four (4) years after the date on which the policy takes effect.

     (e) After an investment of public funds of a political subdivision is made by the investing officer under this section, the total investments of the political subdivision outstanding under this section may not exceed twenty-five percent (25%) of the total portfolio of public funds invested by the political subdivision, including balances in transaction accounts. However, an investment that complies with this section when the investment is made remains legal even if:

(1) the investment policy has expired; or

(2) a subsequent decrease in the total portfolio of public funds invested by the political subdivision, including balances in transaction accounts, causes the percentage of investments outstanding under this section to exceed twenty-five percent (25%) of the total portfolio of public funds invested by the political subdivision.

     (f) An investing officer may contract with a federally regulated investment advisor or other institutional money manager to make investments under this section.
