Local Government Finance Authority

The Local Government Finance Authority (LGFA) proudly and exclusively serves South Australian Councils and Local Government Bodies.

The LGFA is Administered by a Board of Trustees and works for the benefits of Councils and other Local Government Bodies within South Australia.

Why deposit your surplus funds with the LGFA?

• We pay competitive market interest rates;
• We benchmark our deposit and investment rates to the 4 major banks; and
• Absolute security, the State Government of South Australia guarantee all of your deposits held with the Authority.

The LGFA then uses Council Deposits, External Borrowings and LGFA reserves to fund loans to Councils and Prescribed Bodies around our State. Every dollar we source from the sector is a dollar we don’t need to borrow externally.
