Banking with Treasury


Thank you for your interest in banking and cash management services at the State Treasury. The State Treasurer is the banking and cash management officer for the state. Our mission for this purpose is “Improving Oregon government’s and citizens’ financial capabilities through protecting public funds and delivering customer-focused cash management solutions.”

Banking services are provided exclusively to state agencies and certain public universities. Short-term investment activities are available to state agencies, public universities, and local and Tribal governments. By state law, Treasury does not provide these services directly to members of the general public.

In calendar year 2020, Treasury processed 31.3 million banking transactions totaling $317 billion.

The division also protects government deposits at qualified commercial banks and credit unions. Learn more about the Public Funds Collateralization program here.
