5 Vermont Municipal Bond Bank Meeting the Capital Needs of Vermont s Municipalities Since 1970 What is the Vermont Municipal Bond Bank? The Bond Bank is an instrumentality of the State of Vermont administered by a board of directors that includes the State Treasurer and four members appointed by the Governor. The Executive Director manages the day-to-day operations. The Bond Bank was established in 1970 with a mandate to provide municipalities with access to capital markets at the lowest possible cost. To date the Bond Bank has issued over $1.96 billion in tax- exempt and taxable bonds for 69 new money and refunding bond series. the application. Once approved, all the municipality has to do is sign several loan documents prepared by local bond counsel and wait for the bond proceeds. The Bond Bank completes all the remaining documents and takes care of all the ongoing monitoring and reporting requirements. 5. Federal disclosure requirements: federal tax law requires ongoing disclosure of each bond issuer every year after a sale. Since the Bond Bank is responsible for meeting the disclosure requirements, individual borrowers through the Bond Bank do not have to. How does a municipality participate in a Bond Bank financing? Rutland City Who is eligible to borrow through the Bond Bank? Eligible borrowers include cities, towns, villages, schools and water, sewer, fire, transportation and solid waste districts. Why finance through the Bond Bank? 1. Lower interest rates: because of the Bond Bank s experience, credit ratings and recognition in the capital market. 2. Credit enhancement & security: the Bond Bank is currently rated AA+ by S&P and Aa2 by Moody s. When economical, the VMBB has obtained low cost AAA bond insurance. 3. Costs of issuance: the Bond Bank includes the cost of issuance in its bonds. The only out-of-pocket costs the municipalities have to pay are for local bond counsel and a financial audit. 4. Simplification: the Bond Bank assists municipalities with the completion of To be eligible to participate, each applicant must obtain the following: 1. Voter approval - as required by Vermont Statutes; 2. Local bond counsel opinion - legal opinion from a Bond Bank approved bond counsel firm; and 3. Financial audit - for the most recently completed year and by an independent CPA. When these steps are completed the Bond Bank s application can be completed and submitted for approval. How does the Bond Bank sell its bonds and determine the interest rates? When the Bond Bank is ready to enter the capital markets, it combines all approved borrowers into a single pooled bond issue. The financing team determines if bond insurance is needed and cost effective. Bond documents are submitted to the rating agencies for review and comment. An official statement is compiled, printed and mailed to all Vermont investment firms. The bonds are pre-marketed to Vermont individuals and then to institutional investors. The interest rates are established through negotiation with the underwriter and are based on the order demand from investors, current national interest rates and a review of recent comparable financings. 2

6 How often does the Bond Bank sell bonds? Bonds are usually sold once a year, typically in June or July. The bond proceeds are then made available to the participating municipalities, often the same day as closing. Prior to the bond sale, municipalities can use interim financing from commercial banks in the form of bond anticipation notes (BANS). What type of information does the Bond Bank look for in its application and who reviews it? The application asks for project, tax rate, financial, economic, debt, income, and population information. Much of the data is for the entire municipality and not just the town, school or village. The information can be easily found in municipal or state reports. The application is reviewed by the Bond Bank staff and Board of Directors. In addition, each application may be analyzed by the underwriter, bond counsel, rating agencies and bond insurance company. What if interest rates change significantly after the closing? Borrowers are always protected against having their interest rates increased due to a post-closing changing market. However, in the event rates decline by a significant amount the Bond bank may refund the existing bonds and pass the savings on to the borrowers. Can a municipality pay off a bond early after the bond is issued? It is usually not economical for a municipality to repay a bond early. Because bonds are issued on a pooled basis, it is very expensive to extricate a municipality from the pool. The VMBB is constantly monitoring the pool for refunding opportunities, the savings of which are returned to pool members. Who typically are the investors who buy these bonds? In recent years many of our bonds have been sold to individual Vermont investors. Other investors can include banks, mutual funds, insurance companies and other corporations. The bonds are exempt from both state (Vermont residents) and federal (U.S. residents) income taxes. Does the Bond bank offer assistance in the bonding process? The Bond Bank provides borrower assistance including, explaining the bond process, providing estimated debt service schedules, and providing information on supplemental and alternative financing. For more information on the Vermont Municipal Bond Bank, please visit our website at When are debt service payments made and how is the amount determined? Debt service payments are due in November and May. Principal payments are due every November 15 th and semiannual interest payments every May 15 th and November 15 th. General municipal and school projects are required to pay in level or declining principal payments. Certain public utility projects can pay with level debt service or level principal. 3
