Government securities are invested over a longer period than term deposits with other financial institutions which typically mature within one year. The Credit Union also invests in FVOCI equity instruments which gives it an opportunity to monitor the performance of these companies over time and make economic decisions where warranted. The Credit Union has documented investment policies in place, which guide the management of credit risk on investments.
