ii. 
All idle funds would be invested in short-to-medium term, low-risk financial instruments 
to generate income while prospecting for profitable and commercially viable 
investment opportunities in the midstream and downstream gas sector. 
iii. 
The Executive Director shall manage investment of the MDGIF’s idle funds on a day-
to-day basis in line with this MIPS and investment program approved by the Governing 
Council. 
4.11.2 Investment Criteria for Idle Funds 
i. 
Liquid instruments: Idle funds are only permitted for investment in instruments that are 
highly liquid and easily convertible to cash, to allow the MDGIF quick and flexible 
access to capital when a profitable midstream and downstream gas infrastructure 
project emerges. The MDGIF shall maintain a sufficient level of liquidity to meet its 
cash flow requirements. 
ii. 
Low-risk: The investments should be low-risk to protect the capital and ensure the 
preservation of funds for the eventual investment in the gas infrastructure 
opportunities. 
iii. 
Instruments: The idle funds should be invested in instruments which may include, but 
are not limited to; money market instruments, short-to-medium term government 
securities, or certificates of deposit (CDs). 
iv. 
Yield: The investments should provide a reasonable yield that is consistent with short-
to-medium term investment returns. 
v. 
Currency: The MDGIF shall invest its idle funds in instruments denominated in both 
local and foreign currencies with the ultimate goal of preserving capital in its original 
currency value while prospecting for suitable midstream and downstream gas 
infrastructure investment opportunities.
