(1) Seek to ensure the preservation of capital by adhering to all restrictions on the investment of funds established by law and by this part;
(2) Maintain liquidity by seeking to match the maturity structure of the portfolio to reasonably anticipated cash requirements, as well as maintaining an adequate portion of the portfolio in readily marketable securities; and
(3) Optimize the return on investments by structuring the portfolio in such a way that a market rate of return is earned through budgetary and economic cycles within the existing constraints of safety and liquidity.
