Accounting
High-stakes day-in, day-out accounts-keeping by our office ensures funds are accurately and safely transferred between the hundreds of different treasury and treasury trust accounts.
Cash Management
We secure and distribute hundreds of billions of dollars annually in state revenues and spending so that state agencies can provide essential services.
Investments
We pool more than 500 separate state accounts for banking and investment, which heightens interest earnings and lowers banking fees. Receipts and spending are tracked separately for each.
State Lease/ Purchase Program
We help state agencies finance essential real estate and equipment more advantageously through economies of scale and the state’s low tax-exempt borrowing rates.
Warrant Processing
By issuing and redeeming negotiable instruments called warrants, we make sure state agency payments to vendors, employees, and other beneficiaries are completed. We also investigate warrant forgery claims.

Articles on our work and partners, and how we intersect with education, infrastructure, and finance.
