1. Except as otherwise provided in NRS 355.178 , any securities purchased as an investment of money by or on behalf of a local government, as defined in NRS 354.474 , must remain in the possession of the county treasurer, the appropriate officer of that local government or a qualified bank or trust, throughout the period of the investment, except that any securities subject to repurchase by the seller may be evidenced by a fully perfected, first-priority security interest, as provided in subsection 3.
2. The county treasurer or the appropriate officer of a local government may physically possess those securities, which must be registered in the name of the local government, or may make an agreement, in writing, with any qualified bank or trust to hold those securities for, and in the name of, that local government. If such an agreement is made, the bank or trust shall furnish the county treasurer or the appropriate officer of the local government with a written statement acknowledging that it is so holding the securities.
3. If the securities purchased are subject to an arrangement for the repurchase of those securities by the seller thereof, the county treasurer, the appropriate officer of the local government or a qualified bank or trust may, in lieu of the requirement of possession, obtain the sole, fully perfected, first-priority security interest in those securities. If the bank or trust obtains such a security interest, it shall furnish the county treasurer or the appropriate officer of the local government with a written statement acknowledging that fact. Any securities so purchased must, at the time of purchase by or for a local government, have a fair market value equal to or greater than the repurchase price of the securities.
4. For the purposes of this section, a bank or trust is qualified to hold securities for a local government if the bank or trust is rated by a nationally recognized rating service as “AA-” or its equivalent, or better.
