\n<\/span>Description<\/span>: The Fund invests primarily in high-quality, short-term money market instruments. At least 80% of the Fund’s assets are invested in securities issued by the U.S. government and its agencies and instrumentalities. Although these securities are high-quality, most of the securities held by the Fund are neither guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury nor supported by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government. To be considered high-quality, a security generally must be rated in one of the two highest credit-quality categories for short-term securities by at least two nationally recognized rating services (or by one, if only one rating service has rated the security). The Fund maintains a dollar-weighted average maturity of 90 days or less.<\/p>\n
