Welcome to the Federal Investment Program. Here you'll find resources to familiarize yourself with the program and begin investing. The steps you can expect in the approval process are:
- The Secretary requires legal authority, either from a statute or a treaty, to invest government moneys held in a government account.
- OMB representative is contacted by your agency to obtain approval.
- Obtain approval to invest from the U.S. Treasury. This includes Treasury Counsel issuing a legal memo documenting the review of your Fund's legislative investment authority.
- Once approval and account (s) are set up with OMB and FMS are completed, you can process your first investment through FedInvest.
