- Transact at $1.00 and are not subject to SEC liquidity “gates and fees”
- Are required to own 99.5% government securities, cash, and/or repurchase agreements collateralized by the same
- Generally offer continuous purchases and redemptions until 5 p.m. ET
Assets reflect demand for government MMFs

Proven Track Record
- Over 40 years’ experience managing money market portfolios.
- Steadfast commitment to seeking SAFETY, LIQUIDITY, and RETURN

- You could lose money by investing in a money market fund. Although the fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it cannot guarantee it will do so. An investment in the fund is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Fidelity Investments and its affiliates, the fund’s sponsor, have no legal obligation to provide financial support to the fund, and you should not expect that the sponsor will provide financial support to the fund at any time.
- Fidelity’s government and U.S. Treasury money market funds will not impose a fee upon the sale of your shares, or temporarily suspend your ability to sell shares if the fund’s weekly liquid assets fall below 30% of its total assets because of market conditions or other factors. Interest rate increases can cause the price of a money market security to decrease. A decline in the credit quality of an issuer or a provider of credit support or a maturity-shortening structure for a security can cause the price of a money market security to decrease. Foreign securities are subject to interest rate, currency exchange rate, economic, and political risks.
