Colorado Revised Statutes Title 22. Education § 22-41-104. Lawful investments

(1) The state treasurer, as directed by the public school fund investment board, may invest and reinvest moneys accrued or accruing to the public school fund in the types of deposits and investments authorized in sections 24-36-109, 24-36-112, and 24-36-113, C.R.S., and bonds issued by school districts. The moneys may also be invested in stocks and other financial assets as specified in the public school fund investment board investment policy established as required in section 22-41-102.5(4)(b); except that investment includes only mutual funds, index funds, and any other instrument that is not a direct investment in a corporation.

(2) The state treasurer has authority, to be exercised at the state treasurer's discretion, to effect exchanges or sales whenever such exchanges or sales will not result in an aggregate loss of principal to the public school fund. An aggregate loss of principal to the public school fund occurs only when an exchange or sale that resulted in an initial loss of principal is not offset by a gain on an exchange or sale in the fund within eighteen months. The calculation of an aggregate loss must also include any gains that were realized in the twelve months prior to the loss of principal.

(3) Deleted by Laws 1997, S.B.97-150, § 6, eff. Aug. 6, 1997.
