Fidelity Liquidity Solutions - make your cash work harder

Liquidity solutions aim to maximize returns on cash while considering risk budget and liquidity needs.

Contact us

Our liquidity solutions are tailored not only to preserve the value of your capital, but also to offer better returns than traditional bank deposits. Many institutional investors find this type of solution attractive as it lets them manage their working capital efficiently.

Why invest in money markets?

  • Enhanced return potential
  • High-quality & Liquid
  • Capital stability

Money market funds have the flexibility to purchase instruments with a maturity ranging from overnight up to one year, while bank deposits are much more limited in scope to generate income. As a result, bank deposits tend to be less reactive to rising rates.

Looking ahead, if rates do stay higher for longer, as markets expect, investors look set to earn good risk-adjusted returns from cash given high yields and low volatility.

A range to suit your varying needs 

Our liquidity solutions are available for investors who are looking for either daily dealing access or the potential to enhance their returns via different strategies focussed on duration, credit or a combination to ensure cash optimisation within a clearly defined risk budget.

Risk warnings

  • Please refer to the Prospectus and KID of the fund before making any final investment decisions. The investment which is promoted concerns the acquisition of units or shares in a fund and not in a given underlying asset owned by the fund.
  • The value of investments and the income from them can go down as well as up so you may get back less than you invest.
  • The investment which is promoted concerns the acquisition of units or shares in a fund, and not in a given underlying asset owned by the fund.
  • This fund invests in overseas markets and so the value of investments can be affected by changes in currency exchange rates.
  • There is a risk that the issuers of bonds may not be able to repay the money they have borrowed or make interest payments. When interest rates rise, bonds may fall in value. Rising interest rates may cause the value of your investment to fall. Due to the greater possibility of default an investment in a corporate bond is generally less secure than an investment in government bonds.
  • The value of shares may be adversely affected by insolvency or other financial difficulties affecting any institution in which the Fund’s cash has been deposited.
  • The investment policy of this fund means it can be more than 35% invested in transferable securities and money market instruments issued or guaranteed by an EEA State, one or more of its local authorities, a third country or a public international body to which one or more EEA States belongs.
  • An investment in a money market fund is different from an investment in deposits, as the principal invested in an money market fund is capable of fluctuation. Fidelity’s money market funds do not rely on external support for guaranteeing the liquidity of the money market funds or stabilising the NAV per unit or share.
  • An investment in a money market fund is not guaranteed.
  • The Investment Manager’s focus on securities of issuers which maintain favourable ESG characteristics or that are sustainable investments may affect the fund’s investment performance favourably or unfavourably in comparison to similar funds without such focus. When referring to sustainability – related aspects of the promoted fund, the decision to invest should take into account all characteristics or objectives of the promoted fund as detailed in the Prospectus. Information on sustainability-related aspects is provided pursuant to SFDR at https://www.fidelity.lu/sfdr-entity-disclosures
