Floridians,
This week, I announced the Florida Treasury has invested an additional $50 million in Israel bonds, bringing Florida's total investment in Israel bonds to $250 million, the largest total ever held at one time by the Florida Treasury. With this investment, Florida aims to diversify their investment portfolio as part of a long-range investment strategy. These bonds have since proven to be of great value to our portfolio, generating about $9.4 million in interest, offering consistent and positive returns for the state. Florida shares a unique bond with Israel, serving as our strongest ally and our greatest advocate for peace in the Middle East.
Finally, I want to remind everyone that the 2024 Temporada de Huracanes begins in just 10 weeks. I want to highlight the "Prepare Florida," a disaster preparedness initiative to give Florida the tools they need to prepare. The time is now to protect and prepare your home and businesses. Do not wait until a storm is approaching. Prepare now, Florida!
Atentamente,
