 1        (30 ILCS 225/1) (from Ch. 102, par. 34)
 2        Sec.  1.  Deposits.  Any  treasurer or other custodian of
 3    public funds may deposit such funds in  a  savings  and  loan
 4    association,  savings bank, or State or national bank in this
 5    State.  When such deposits become collected funds and are not
 6    needed for immediate disbursement,  they  shall  be  invested
 7    within  2  working  days  at prevailing rates or better.  The
 8    treasurer or other custodian of public funds may require such
 9    bank, savings  bank,  or  savings  and  loan  association  to
10    deposit with him or her securities guaranteed by agencies and
11    instrumentalities  of  the federal government equal in market
12    value to the amount by which the funds deposited  exceed  the
13    federally insured amount. Any treasurer or other custodian of
14    public   funds  may  accept  as  security  for  public  funds
15    deposited in such bank, savings bank,  or  savings  and  loan
16    association  any  securities  or  other  eligible  collateral
17    authorized  by  Sections  11 and 11.1 of the Deposit of State
18    Moneys Act (15 ILCS 520/11 and 11.1)  or  Section  6  of  the
19    Public  Funds  Investment Act (30 ILCS 235/6). Such treasurer
20    or other custodian is authorized to enter into  an  agreement
21    with  any  such  bank,  savings  bank,  or  savings  and loan
22    association, with any federally insured financial institution
23    or trust company, or with any agency of the  U.S.  government
24    relating   to  the  deposit  of  such  securities.  Any  such
25    treasurer  or  other  custodian  shall  be  discharged   from
26    responsibility  for  any  funds  for  which securities are so
27    deposited with him or her, and the funds for which securities
28    are so deposited  shall  not  be  subject  to  any  otherwise
29    applicable limitation as to amount.
30        No  bank,  savings  bank, or savings and loan association
31    shall receive public funds  as  permitted  by  this  Section,
32    unless  it  has  complied  with  the requirements established

 4        Sec.  2c.  Every   such   officer,   board,   commission,
 5    commissioner,  department,  institution,  arm  or  agency  is
 6    authorized  to  demand  and  receive a bond and securities in
 7    amount and kind satisfactory to him from any bank or  savings
 8    and  loan  association  in which moneys held by such officer,
 9    board, commission, commissioner, department, institution, arm
10    or agency for or on behalf of the State of Illinois,  may  be
11    on deposit, such securities to be held by the officer, board,
12    commission,  commissioner,  department,  institution,  arm or
13    agency for the period that such moneys are so on deposit  and
14    then  returned  together  with  interest, dividends and other
15    accruals to the bank or savings  and  loan  association.  The
16    bond  or undertaking and such securities shall be conditioned
17    for the return of the moneys deposited in conformity with the
18    terms of the deposit.
19        Whenever funds deposited with a bank or savings and  loan
20    association  exceed  the  amount of federal deposit insurance
21    coverage, a bond, or pledged securities,  or  other  eligible
22    collateral shall be obtained. Only the types of securities or
23    other  eligible  collateral which the State Treasurer may, in
24    his or her discretion, accept for amounts not insured by  the
25    Federal  Deposit Insurance Corporation or the Federal Savings

29    value of the bond or pledged securities shall at all times be
30    equal to or greater than the uninsured portion of the deposit
31    unless  the  funds deposited are collateralized pursuant to a
32    system  established  by  the  State  Treasurer  to  aggregate
33    permissible securities received as collateral from  financial

 4    association under the provisions of this Section shall remain
 5    the property of the depositary and  may  be  stamped  by  the
 6    depositary  so  as  to  indicate  that  such  securities  are
 7    deposited  as collateral. Should the bank or savings and loan
 8    association fail or refuse to pay over  the  moneys,  or  any
 9    part   thereof,   deposited  with  it,  the  officer,  board,
10    commission, commissioner,  department,  institution,  arm  or
11    agency  may sell such securities upon giving 5 days notice to
12    the depositary of his intention to so sell  such  securities.
13    Such sale shall transfer absolute ownership of the securities
14    so  sold to the vendee thereof. The surplus, if any, over the
15    amount due to the State and the expenses of the sale shall be
16    paid to the bank or savings and loan association. Actions may
17    be brought in the name of the People of the State of Illinois
18    to enforce the claims  of  the  State  with  respect  to  any
19    securities   deposited   by   a  bank  or  savings  and  loan
20    association.
21        No bank or savings and  loan  association  shall  receive
22    public  funds  as  permitted  by  this Section, unless it has
23    complied  with  the  requirements  established  pursuant   to
24    Section  6  of  "An  Act  relating  to certain investments of
25    public funds by public agencies", approved July 23, 1943,  as
