Budget and Finance | New York State Association of Counties

NYSAC has partnered with the following companies to provide budget and financial management solutions unique for counties in New York. They are designed to generate revenue and/or expand transparency and ease the county budget process.

Cashvest By 3 + 1

Three-plus-one provides a suite of solutions from liquidity analysis to bank analysis reports, all designed to generate more value and new revenue on counties’ current cash deposits.

Cashvest helps municipalities realize new revenue to increase stability and maximize liquidity – all while increasing yield on deposits. The New York-based national leader in the field, Cashvest uses proprietary algorithms to produce data-driven analysis and time-horizon evaluations. This information is applied to safely increase yields on current cash deposits and enhance revenue sources.

Cashvest is not a bank or a registered investment advisor. They simply provide an independent perspective on making certain every dollar you have is being put to work efficiently, every day.
