Composition (from the most detailed source available)

The 2019 audited consolidated financial statements break down the investments as follows (this is the clearest public detail we have):

• Money market fund: ~$3.35 million (Level 1)
• U.S. Treasury Notes: ~$281,000
• U.S. Treasury Bill: ~$149,000
• Certificates of Deposit (carried at cost): ~$2.34 million

Total 2019: $6.12 million

These are conservative, highly liquid, low-risk instruments (primarily government securities and CDs). There is no evidence in the public filings of a large equity stock portfolio or alternative investments.

Key observations from recent years

• The Investments balance has remained relatively stable in the $6.1–$6.9 million range since at least 2018–2019.
• The large overall asset base ($20M–$23M) is driven far more by Cash & Cash Equivalents (often $11–$13 million) and the very large Deferred Revenue liability (typically $16–$18 million, reflecting committed but not-yet-paid incentives) than by the investment portfolio.
• “Board-designated” net assets of $1,787,305 have been consistent for several years and appear tied to the program-related / designated investment category.
• Interest and investment income is budgeted modestly (around $50–55k in recent budgets) and is a minor revenue source compared with the economic development sales tax.

Bottom line: GO Topeka maintains a stable, conservative investment portfolio of roughly $6.5–$6.9 million, consisting mainly of money market funds, U.S. Treasuries, and certificates of deposit. The Form 990 and JEDO financial presentations report only the aggregate total — they do not list individual securities by name or ticker.
