N.M. Stat. § 6-13-22
Refunding; escrowed proceeds.
Under the Institution Bond Act, any escrowed proceeds may be invested or
reinvested in bonds or notes of the United States or any of its agencies or
instrumentalities, or in bonds or notes where the principal and interest is unconditionally
guaranteed by the United States. The escrowed proceeds and investments, together
with any interest to be derived from the investments, shall always be sufficient for
payment of the bonds, refunded as they become due at their respective maturities, or at
prior-redemption dates, including the principal, any prior-redemption premium and any
escrow agent charges.
