Treasury asset management collaboration
The goal of TAMC is to offer a collaborative approach to professional portfolio management for local governments. Two investment firms work on this initiative: SJS Investment Consulting and Redtree Investments. Participants will be able to analyze the services of both firms to determine which investment approach is most appropriate for their entity’s investment needs. Each entity will have the option to set up separate investment accounts with the firms listed below. Below are descriptions of the services provided by each firm and their contact information.
NOTE: To participate in the Treasury Asset Management Collaborative, your government must be a Center for Local Government member.
