SECTION 16560-16565
16560. The Treasurer shall enter into such contracts with such depositaries as in his judgment will be to the public advantage so to do. The contracts shall fix the duration of deposits and the rates of interest to be received, if any, the interest payment dates, and provide conditions for their withdrawal, repayment, and security. 16561. In order to obtain as high rates of interest as possible, the contracts may contain any conditions necessary to conform with Section 19 of the Federal Reserve Act, as amended, and with regulations established pursuant thereto by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, and demand deposits shall be subject to withdrawal at any time upon demand of the Treasurer. 16562. The contracts covering demand state deposits shall provide that each depositary shall render daily to the Treasurer a statement of the account showing the date of deposits, payments or withdrawals therefrom made during the day and the balance or amount of money of the state held by it at the close of the day. In the event that such demand deposits are interest bearing, the contract also shall provide that on the interest payment dates the depositary shall also furnish a statement showing the amount of interest due thereon together with the payment of the interest due. The contracts covering time or interest-bearing term deposits shall provide that the interest to be paid by the depositary bank shall be paid upon the expiration of the certificate or certificates of deposit issued as a part of the contract. The contract may also provide for periodic interest payments during the term of the deposit. The contract governing time deposits shall also provide that the amounts of interest shall be reported by the depositary bank at the time of payment of the interest, by statement showing the balances or amounts of money of the state held by it during the period and the amount of accrued interest thereon. 16563. The contracts shall be executed by the depositaries in triplicate. The Treasurer shall file one copy of each contract with the Controller. 16564. At the time of depositing State money in any bank, designated as a depositary, the Treasurer shall take and preserve a receipt, certificate of deposit, or such other evidence of the deposit as the Treasurer may require, stating the amount deposited and referring to the contract made between the depositary bank and the Treasurer. 16565. On the order of the Treasurer, depositary banks shall handle, collect and pay all checks, drafts and other exchange in the same manner and under the same conditions as checks, drafts, and other exchange of other depositors are handled, collected and paid.
