The DIF has experienced a 7% growth in the market value of its investment portfolio from second quarter of 2020 through the third quarter of 2021. The DIF's investment portfolio balance has seen modest growth quarter over quarter, mostly attributable to assessment income. Total interest income continues to decline, as securities with higher yields purchased pre-pandemic mature. Newly purchased securities have seen some yield pickup over historic lows; however, the overnight rate continues to hover near zero.
