  • structures the Fund's portfolio based on interest rates, market conditions and liquidity needs
  • monitors the Fund's investments and may adjust the Fund's average maturity in anticipation of changes in short-term interest rates
  • selects securities that:
    • are denominated in U.S. dollars
    • have high credit quality and minimal credit risk
    • mature or reset in 397 days or less
