The Florida Treasury is responsible for multiple state financial processes which impact Floridians like you. Please select a topic below to learn more about how the Florida Treasury can help you or your organization meet your financial objectives.
The Florida State Treasury operates a special investment program for public entities. This program is authorized in Section 17.61(1), Florida Statutes and is called the Special Purpose Investment Account (SPIA). Component Units of the State, Universities, or Colleges that are created by the Florida Constitution or Florida Statutes are eligible to invest in SPIA.
SPIA funds are combined with State funds and are invested as part of the Treasury Investment Pool. The Treasury Investment Pool invests in a combination of short-term liquid instruments and intermediate term fixed income securities.
Participants have the ability to invest and obtain funds same day with an 11:00 a.m. deadline. Earnings are posted monthly based on a pro-rata share of total Treasury earnings. Each SPIA participant is assessed a monthly administrative fee of 0.12% of their average daily balance.
An investment in SPIA is not a deposit in a bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although SPIA seeks to preserve principal it is not a guaranteed investment.
