Introduction and Overview
Global Economic Growth – slow recovery continues
3
The IMF projects World Output to grow at 3.7% for 2014, up from 3.0% in 2013.
“The basic reason behind the stronger recovery is that the brakes to the recovery are progressively being loosened,” said Olivier Blanchard, the IMF’s chief economist and director of its Research Department. “The drag from fiscal consolidation is diminishing. The financial system is slowly healing”.

All 4 of the worlds major central banks have implemented some form of quantitative easing in an attempt to increase their domestic growth rate.
Globally, interest rates have increased year over year. With growth projected at 3.7% and inflation rates near or below growth rates, how much higher can they go?

U.S. Economy – can we reach our projected 3.0% GDP growth
5
The Federal Reserve projects U.S. GDP growth of 3.0% for 2014. Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia President Charles Plosser, who votes on policy this year, said he
expects the economy to expand 3 percent in 2014 as the jobless rate falls to 6.2 percent by year-end, warranting a quicker tapering to bond purchases by the central bank.
Policy makers made the first two cuts to asset purchases in December and January, slowing to $65 billion a month from $85 billion.
“My preference is to scale back our purchase program at a faster pace to reflect the strengthening economy,” he said in a speech in Rochester, New York. “We must begin to back away from increasing the degree of policy accommodation in a manner commensurate with an improving economy,”

Quantitative Easing and Federal Funds Rate Discussion
The Federal Reserve has held the U.S. overnight rate near zero for the last 4.5 years. In their most recent meetings they started to “taper” Government Bond purchases by $10 Billion dollars. Most economists expect the Fed to continue with tapering and end their bond purchasing program (Q.E.) by the end of 2014.
The Federal Reserve has also said that they will hold the target interest rate for Federal Funds Rate at 0 to 0.25 at least as long as unemployment remains above 6.5% and inflation remains below their accepted level of 2.0 – 2.50%.
The Unemployment rate fell to 6.6%, but, the participation rate within that survey fell to 63%, near the lowest level since 1978. Inflation data for the U.S. in March showed the Fed’s favorite gauge, PCE core YOY, was at 1.10%.
The market has started to adjusted to “tapering”, economic data, and the Federal Reserves forward guidance on rates by extending the dates at which it anticipates the overnight rate to increase.

Bond Strategies; Portfolio Ladders and Barbells
Ladder Strategy / Asset-Liability MatchStaggers maturities of bonds in a portfolio and sets a schedule for reinvestment of proceeds
Tota

tfol
io
Benefits:• Periodic maturities allow you to control liquidity based
upon anticipated needs• Interest rate volatility is reduced as portfolio is spread
across different maturities and coupons• Proceeds from the maturing investment can be used
for the scheduled draw, or reinvested in another investment if it is not needed.
Barbell StrategyUtilizes only short-term investments and longer term bonds
Tota
l Por
tfol
ioBenefits:• Longer-term bonds provide higher interest rates, while shorter-
term bonds provide liquidity• Can help to mitigate risk of owning longer-term bonds in a rising
(or anticipated to rise) interest rate environment by allocating just a portion of investments to longer-dated securities
• Maturities of shorter-term bonds can be reinvested in different types of bonds or other securities should market conditions change

Pension Adjustment Steps
• Allocates cost-sharing plan liabilities
• Discounts accrued liabilities using a market discount rate
• Determines the value of plan assets
• Calculates adjusted net pension liability
• Amortizes adjusted net pension liability
• Applies to calculation versus full value and to revenue

Refunding Opportunities
Refunding
What is a Refunding?
• Issuance of new debt at lower interest rates to replace debt which is currently outstanding at higher rates
• A refunding of debt can also entail the issuance of new debt at either lower or higher interest rates to restructure the payments on existing debt.
• Budget relief• Creates debt service capacity for new money
• Factors that make a refunding work:• Lower Interest Rates• Time
• Savings Target: 3% in minimum present value savings
32
Refunding - Continued
• Current – refunding completed within 90 days of the call date on the bonds being refunded
Bond holders are notified and bonds are paid off
• Advance – refunding completed more than 90 days before the call date on the bonds being refunded
• Long Escrow period – escrow reinvestment rate is critical• Only one advance refunding of a new money bond issue is permitted by the
IRS• Proceeds are “Escrowed” until call date then bond holders are paid off
33
Refunding - Continued
• Typically, 10 Years after the original borrowing, a 20 year bond interest rate can be replaced with a 10 year bond interest rate
• Today’s market allows issuers to capture:
1) Rolling down the Yield Curve
2) Historically Low Rates
3) Steep Yield Curve

Savings Summary
Taxable Refunding
37
• Advance refunding rules only apply to tax-exempt debt
• Issuers are permitted to refund an issue more than 90 days prior to the call date even if the issue has been advance refunded once if it uses taxable debt
• For the first half of 2013 spreads between taxable and tax-exempt rates were very narrow making it a very good tool to use
• Spreads have widened out and with the expectation that rates will remain low through 2014 it may make sense to wait to be able to use tax-exempt rates if an issue is callable 11/1/14 and becomes an current refunding as of 8/1/14
Build America Bonds
Build America Bond’s
• Build America Bonds are a taxable municipal bond program enacted by congress in 2009 and extended through December 31, 2010.
• The taxable bonds receive an interest subsidy(originally 35%) and at the time a comparable if not a lower cost option to tax-exempt bonds.
• On March 1, 2013, approximately $85 billion of federal budget cuts went into effect, meaning all subsidy payments for direct-pay municipal bonds, including BABs, to be paid between that date and Sept. 30 would be reduced by 8.7% through 9/30/13 and 7.2% from 10/1/13 to 9/30/14.
• With the subsidy cut, issuers started to look to redeem Build America Bonds at par plus accrued interest because they believe the cuts in their federal subsidy payments under sequestration has triggered the extraordinary redemption provisions in their bond documents.
• The bond documents said an “extraordinary event” would occur and trigger a call if there was a change to the federal tax code, pursuant to which the federal subsidy payment is reduced or eliminated.”

Bank Qualified Issues
Bank Qualified
• Banks are large buyers of municipal bonds.
• However, Banks may not deduct the carrying cost (the interest expense incurred to purchase or carry an inventory of securities) of tax-exempt municipal bonds. For banks, this provision has the effect of eliminating the tax-exempt benefit of municipal bonds. An exception is included in the Code that allows banks to deduct 80% of the carrying cost of a "qualified tax-exempt obligation." In order for bonds to be qualified tax-exempt obligations the bonds must be (i) issued by a "qualified small issuer," (ii) issued for public purposes, and (iii) designated as qualified tax-exempt obligations. A "qualified small issuer" is (with respect to bonds issued during any calendar year) an issuer that issues no more than $10 million of tax-exempt bonds during the calendar year. Qualified tax-exempt obligations are commonly referred to as "bank qualified bonds."
• Effectively two types of municipal bonds were created under the Act; bank qualified (sometimes referred to as "BQ") and non-bank qualified. Although banks may purchase non-bank qualified bonds they seldom do so. The rate they would require in order for the investment to be profitable would approach the rate of taxable bonds. As a result, issuers obtain lower rates by selling bonds to investors that realize the tax-exempt benefit. In contrast, banks have a strong appetite for bank qualified bonds that are in limited supply. As a result, bank qualified bonds carry a lower rate than non-bank qualified bonds

Bank Qualified - Continued
Any issuer that is planning to issue less than $10 million of tax-exempt securities in a calendar year should consider designating the issue as bank qualified in order to obtain the associated interest cost savings. Issuers requiring more than $10,000,000 may be able to take advantage of bank qualification by issuing two series of bonds. For example, for a $20,000,000 financing, a $10,000,000 issue could be sold this year and one could be sold next year to obtain 2 bank qualified issues. Similarly, for a $25,000,000 financing, $10,000,000 could be sold as bank qualified bonds this year and a non-bank qualified $15,000,000 issue could be sold next year.
