The Markets in Review

Dear Shareholder,

Investment performance in the 12 months ended October 31, 2019 was a tale of two markets. The first half of the reporting period was characterized by restrictive monetary policy, deteriorating economic growth, equity market volatility, and rising fear of an imminent recession. During the second half of the reporting period, stocks and bonds rebounded sharply, as influential central banks shifted toward accommodative monetary policy, which led to broad-based optimism that a near-term recession could be averted.

After the dust settled, equity and bond markets posted mixed returns while weathering significant volatility. U.S. large cap equities and U.S. bonds advanced, while equities at the high end of the risk spectrum — emerging markets and U.S. small cap — posted modest negative returns.

Fixed-income securities played an important role in diversified portfolios by delivering strong returns amid economic uncertainty, as interest rates declined (and bond prices rose). Long-term bonds, particularly long-term Treasuries, proved to be an effective ballast for diversified investors. Investment-grade and high-yield corporate bonds posted positive returns, as the credit fundamentals in corporate markets remained relatively solid.

In the U.S. equity market, volatility spiked in late 2018, as a wide variety of risks were brought to bear on markets, including rising interest rates, slowing global growth, and heightened trade tensions. Volatility also rose in emerging markets, as the appreciating U.S. dollar and higher interest rates in the U.S. disrupted economic growth abroad. Despite an economic slowdown in Europe and ongoing uncertainty about Brexit, European equities posted a modest positive return.

As equity performance faltered and global economic growth slowed, the U.S. Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) shifted away from policies designed to decrease inflation in favor of renewed efforts to stimulate economic activity. The Fed left interest rates unchanged in January 2019, then reduced interest rates three times thereafter, starting in July 2019. Similarly, the Fed took measures to support liquidity in short-term lending markets. Following in the Fed’s footsteps, the European Central Bank announced aggressive economic stimulus measures, including lower interest rates and the return of its bond purchasing program. The Bank of Japan signaled a continuation of accommodative monetary policy, while China committed to looser credit conditions and an increase in fiscal spending.

The outpouring of global economic stimulus led to a sharp rally in risk assets throughout the world despite the headwind of rising geopolitical and trade tensions. Hopes continued to remain high as the current economic expansion became the longest in U.S. history.

We continue to expect a slowing expansion with additional room to run. Despite a sharp slowdown in trade and manufacturing across the globe, U.S. consumers continued to spend at a relatively healthy pace, benefiting from the lowest unemployment rate in 50 years and rising wages. However, trade disputes and the resulting disruptions in global supply chains, as well as geopolitical tensions, particularly in the Middle East, continued to have a negative impact on global growth.

Overall, we favor reducing investment risk due to rising economic uncertainty. We believe U.S. equities remain relatively attractive, but we are shifting to a more cautious stance by emphasizing factors that seek lower-volatility and higher-quality stocks. In fixed income, government bonds continue to be important portfolio stabilizers, while emerging market bonds offer relatively attractive income opportunities.

In this environment, investors need to think globally, extend their scope across a broad array of asset classes, and be nimble as market conditions change. We encourage you to talk with your financial advisor and visit blackrock.com for further insight about investing in today’s markets.

Sincerely,

Money Market Overview  For the 12-Month Period Ended October 31, 2019

 

Over the past 12 months, interest rates trended lower as the Federal Open Market Committee (the “FOMC” or “Fed”) reversed course from the fourth rate hike in December 2018 and reduced interest rates for the first time in over a decade in 2019. The FOMC cut the Federal Funds target rate at its July, September and October meetings, which in total reduced the target range 0.75%. These cuts brought the Federal Funds Rate target range between 1.50% and 1.75%. In addition to the notable movement by the FOMC, the last 12 months have brought with it mixed economic reports, a backdrop of a global economic slowdown, and more recently a small sense of optimism surrounding the U.S.-China trade conflict. Specific to money market funds, the U.S. industry money-market assets have increased 16% year to date with prime funds up 33% year to date and government funds up 13% year to date, according to iMoneyNet.

Early in October, weakening economic data points were evidenced by the U.S. ISM manufacturing and non-manufacturing figures, as the ISM manufacturing reading came in significantly below expectations at 47.8 versus the 50.0 expected. This was 1.3 points lower than the prior reading for August and the lowest level since 2009. The main sources of decline came from new orders, employment and production, which all registered below 50, indicating a contraction. The ISM non-manufacturing index in September dropped 3.8 points to 52.6. September non-farm payrolls came in at 136,000 (versus the expected 145,000), with 114,000 of those jobs in the private sector while the previous two months were revised to be 45,000 higher. On the contrary, the October employment report helped support the jobs story with non-farm payroll growing by 128,000, 43,000 higher than expectations with 85,000 of revisions to both September’s and August’s figures. Other important developments in October included a formal extension to the deadline for the U.K.’s departure by three months to January 31, 2020 in addition to Prime Minister Boris Johnson winning the backing of Parliament to hold a general election on December 12, 2019 in hopes to break the gridlock.

As previously mentioned, for the third time this year the FOMC reduced the target range for the Federal Funds rate, bringing the range to between 1.50% and 1.75%. Comments from Federal Reserve Chairman Jay Powell suggested that any additional rate cuts would be dependent on incoming economic data and indicated that a high bar exists for future policy adjustments. In an effort to provide additional liquidity to the financial system and to help maintain control over key short-term interest rates, the Fed continued to conduct temporary open market operations in the form of overnight and term repurchase agreements. The Fed also began buying Treasury bills to boost the level of reserves in the banking system. It was announced that such purchases — also known as permanent open market operations — will be made beginning at a rate of $60 billion per month into the second quarter of 2020.

In addition to the moves by the FOMC, the U.S. debt ceiling was again suspended in July, and net new Treasury bill issuance exceeded $252 billion year to date. This Treasury supply, along with typical quarter-end funding pressures in September, contributed to a widening of credit spreads, with the three-month London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) overnight-indexed swap spread nearly doubling to around 0.33% during the period. Additionally, U.S. government-sponsored agencies have been guided by regulatory agencies to issue floating rate notes indexed to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). The SOFR is a broad measure of the cost of borrowing cash overnight collateralized by Treasury securities and is the reference rate eventually expected to replace LIBOR. In addition to the agency notes referenced to SOFR, some large financial institutions also issued certificates of deposit and commercial paper linked to this index, and demand for such obligations was generally strong.

Not only has demand been strong for money market eligible securities, but 2019 has been a year with record inflows into money market funds, both prime and government funds alike, with the industry assets under management up 16%, according to iMoneyNet. The demand could be attributed to a multitude of variables such as the positive yield environment in the United States, banks beginning to cut their deposit rates in lock step with the Fed, and investors parking funds while they wait out the bouts of volatility in the equity markets amongst many other variables.

While in our view the FOMC did not commit in October to any specific future path for interest rates, they did emphasize the importance of incoming economic data and its influence on the direction of monetary policy. Given the Fed’s expanded footprint in the market, we expect there will be “zero” net Treasury bill supply available during the next eight months. Despite the massive injection of liquidity into the banking system by the Fed, balance sheet constraints and inter-day liquidity requirements at global systemically important banks are expected to contribute to funding pressures later in the fourth quarter 2019. In turn, dynamics in the funding markets related to balance-sheet management activities at large financial institutions could, in our view, contribute to periodic bouts of volatility and spread widening at the front end of the market in the months leading up to year end.

Turning to short-term municipal bonds, the short-term municipal market began the 12-month period at $133 billion in industry assets, which spiked in January at $146.6 billion due to seasonal coupon inflows, and then declined to end the period at $138 billion, up approximately $5 billion on the year.

The FOMC continued to follow its determined path of normalization of interest rates by lifting the target range for the federal funds rate by 25 basis points (0.25%) in December 2018. This moved the target range to 2.25-2.50%. In line with these rate increases, the SIFMA Index, which measures represents the average yield on seven-day variable rate demand notes (“VRDNs”), rose slowly throughout the period beginning at 1.61% on November 1, 2018, hitting a ten-year high of 2.30% on April 30, 2019 amongst tax season redemptions. Subsequently, however, the FOMC indicated a greater degree of concern with respect to slowing global growth and trade policy, ultimately pivoting their stance into an easing bias, enacting three 25 basis point rate cuts at their July, September and October meetings. Therefore, the FOMC’s target range ended the period at 1.50-1.75% as of October 31, 2019.

New VRDN issuance remained light throughout the period as issuers instead opted to move out of debt issuance and take advantage of continuing relatively low longer-term bond yields. The total outstanding supply of VRDNs stood at $130 billion as of October 31, 2019 and is now lower than total tax-exempt money fund assets at $138 billion. This dynamic creates a tighter balance of supply and demand for a smaller amount of VRDN securities outstanding. In addition, the long end of the municipal market has experienced a record year of inflows, eclipsing $75 billion year to date, which has further increased bond fund and separately managed account demand for VRDNs. During periods of high coupon reinvestment and cash inflows, yields on VRDNs moved significantly lower. The SIFMA Index moved as low as 1.18% in July, one of the largest months for seasonal inflows in the municipal space, but then moved higher to 1.58% in September amongst quarter-end outflows. Ultimately, the SIFMA Index ended the 12-month period at 1.12%, representing a typical ratio of approximately 70% versus taxable money market yield levels.

After the FOMC’s pivot to an easing bias, the yield on one-year municipal notes fell from 2.07% on November 1, 2018 to a low of 1.10% in August 2019 and ended the period at 1.23%. VRDNs offered a yield pickup for most of the year as the municipal money market curve remained inverted for the majority of the year. Therefore, municipal money market funds maintained a shorter duration posture with very selective and limited extension trades.

Money Market Overview  For the 12-Month Period Ended October 31, 2019 (continued)

 

Looking ahead, municipal money market fund managers are expected to maintain more of a neutral duration posture as the Fed has completed its mid-cycle adjustment in rates. However, the actions and sentiment of the FOMC remain a key focus as the policy making group continues to assess current market conditions to determine the future path of its target range should market conditions change.

8    2019 BLACKROCK ANNUAL REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS


Disclosure of Expenses   

 

Shareholders of each Fund may incur the following charges: (a) transactional expenses; and (b) operating expenses, including investment advisory fees, service and distribution fees and other fund expenses. The expense examples shown below (which are based on a hypothetical investment of $1,000 invested on May 1, 2019 and held through October 31, 2019, except with respect to Premier Shares which are based on a hypothetical investment of $1,000 on July 26, 2019 (recommencement of operations) and held through October 31, 2019) are intended to assist shareholders both in calculating expenses based on an investment in each Fund and in comparing these expenses with similar costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The expense examples provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. In order to estimate the expenses a shareholder paid during the period covered by this report, shareholders can divide their account value by $1,000 and then multiply the result by the number corresponding to their Fund and share class under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During the Period.”

The expense examples also provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses. In order to assist shareholders in comparing the ongoing expenses of investing in these Funds and other funds, compare the 5% hypothetical examples with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds.

The expenses shown in the expense examples are intended to highlight shareholders’ ongoing costs only and do not reflect transactional expenses, such as sales charges, if any. Therefore, the hypothetical examples are useful in comparing ongoing expenses only, and will not help shareholders determine the relative total expenses of owning different funds. If these transactional expenses were included, shareholder expenses would have been higher.

ORGANIZATION

BlackRock Liquidity Funds (the “Trust”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Trust is organized as a Delaware statutory trust. The following, each of which is a series of the Trust, are referred to herein collectively as the “Funds” or individually as a “Fund”:

(a) 

California Money Fund and New York Money Fund must satisfy the diversification requirement set forth in Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act and will thereby be deemed to be diversified under the 1940 Act.

Each Fund offers multiple classes of shares although certain share classes may not be outstanding at the report date. Each Fund offers the following classes of shares: Institutional Shares, Dollar Shares, Cash Management Shares, Cash Reserve Shares, Administration Shares, Select Shares, Private Client Shares and Capital Shares. TempFund, T-Fund, MuniFund, California Money Fund and New York Money Fund also offer Plus Shares. FedFund, TempCash, MuniCash, California Money Fund and New York Money Fund also offer Cash Plus Shares. Except for TempFund, each Fund also offers Premier Shares. For the year ended October 31, 2019, no Plus Shares or Cash Plus Shares were outstanding. Each Fund offers multiple classes of shares. All classes of shares have identical voting, dividend, liquidation and other rights and are subject to the same terms and conditions, except that certain classes bear expenses related to the shareholder servicing and distribution of such shares. Each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters relating to its shareholder servicing and distribution expenditures.

Federal Trust Fund, FedFund, T-Fund and Treasury Trust Fund each operate as a “government money market fund” under Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. Each Fund is not subject to liquidity fees or temporary suspensions of redemptions due to declines in the Fund’s weekly liquid assets.

MuniFund operates as a “retail money market fund” under Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act.

On October 11, 2016, TempCash, TempFund and MuniCash, and on October 15, 2018, California Money Fund and New York Money Fund began pricing and transacting in their shares at a net asset value (“NAV”) per share calculated to four decimal places, reflecting market-based values of their portfolio holdings (i.e., at a “floating” NAV). The NAV of TempFund is priced multiple times each day such Fund accepts purchase orders and redemption requests. Prior to the Funds’ adoption of the floating NAV, their portfolio holdings were valued at amortized cost.

With respect to each of TempCash, TempFund, MuniCash, MuniFund, California Money Fund and New York Money Fund, the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) is permitted to impose a liquidity fee of up to 2% on the value of shares redeemed or temporarily restrict redemptions from each such Fund for up to 10 business days during a 90 day period, in the event that such Fund’s weekly liquid assets fall below certain thresholds.

The Funds, together with certain other registered investment companies advised by BlackRock Advisors, LLC (the “Manager”) or its affiliates, are included in a complex of equity, multi-asset, index and money market funds referred to as the BlackRock Multi-Asset Complex.

 

2.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), which may require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Each Fund is considered an investment company under U.S. GAAP and follows the accounting and reporting guidance applicable to investment companies. Below is a summary of significant accounting policies:

Investment Transactions and Income Recognition: For financial reporting purposes, investment transactions are recorded on the dates the transactions are executed. Realized gains and losses on investment transactions are determined on the identified cost basis. Interest income, including amortization and accretion of premiums and discounts on debt securities, is recognized on an accrual basis. Income, expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated daily to each class based on its relative net assets.

Distributions: Distributions from net investment income are declared daily and paid monthly. Distributions of capital gains are distributed at least annually and are recorded on the ex-dividend dates. The character and timing of distributions are determined in accordance with U.S. federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. GAAP.

Liquidity Fees: Any liquidity fees imposed on the value of shares redeemed in the event that a Fund’s weekly liquid assets fall below certain thresholds are recorded as paid-in-capital. The liquidity fees are collected and retained by each Fund for the benefit of the Fund’s remaining shareholders.

 

 

128    2019 BLACKROCK ANNUAL REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS


Notes to Financial Statements  (continued)

 

Recent Accounting Standards: In March 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update “Premium Amortization of Purchased Callable Debt Securities” which amends the amortization period for certain purchased callable debt securities. Under the new guidance, the premium amortization of purchased callable debt securities that have explicit, non-contingent call features and are callable at fixed prices will be amortized to the earliest call date. The guidance will be applied on a modified retrospective basis and is effective for fiscal years, and their interim periods, beginning after December 15, 2018. Management continues to evaluate the impact of this guidance on the Funds.

Indemnifications: In the normal course of business, a Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations that provide general indemnification. A Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown because it involves future potential claims against a Fund, which cannot be predicted with any certainty.

Other: Expenses directly related to a Fund or its classes are charged to that Fund or the applicable class. Other operating expenses shared by several funds, including other funds managed by the Manager, are prorated among those funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods. Expenses directly related to the Funds and other shared expenses prorated to the Funds are allocated daily to each class based on their relative net assets or other appropriate methods.

 

3.

INVESTMENT VALUATION AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Investment Valuation Policies (TempCash, TempFund, MuniCash, California Money Fund and New York Money Fund): TempCash, MuniCash, California Money Fund and New York Money Funds’ investments are valued at fair value (also referred to as “market value” within the financial statements) as of 3:00 p.m., Eastern time, on each day on which the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open for business. TempFund’s investments are valued at fair value (also referred to as “market value” within the financial statements) as of 8:00 a.m. (Eastern time), 12:00 p.m. (Eastern time) and 3:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for business. U.S. GAAP defines fair value as the price the Funds would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Funds determine the fair values of their financial instruments using various independent dealers or pricing services under policies approved by the Board. The BlackRock Global Valuation Methodologies Committee (the “Global Valuation Committee”) is the committee formed by management to develop global pricing policies and procedures and to oversee the pricing function for all financial instruments.

Fair Value Inputs and Methodologies: The following methods and inputs are used to establish the fair value of TempCash, TempFund, MuniCash, California Money Fund and New York Money Fund’s assets and liabilities:

 

   

Investments are valued on the basis of prices provided by dealers or pricing services. In determining the value of a particular investment, pricing services may use certain information with respect to transactions in such investments, quotations from dealers, pricing matrixes, market transactions in comparable investments and information with respect to various relationships between investments.

 

   

Municipal investments (including commitments to purchase such investments on a “when-issued” basis) are valued on the basis of prices provided by dealers or pricing services. In determining the value of a particular investment, pricing services may use certain information with respect to transactions in such investments, quotations from dealers, pricing matrixes, market transactions in comparable investments and information with respect to various relationships between investments.

Investment Valuation Policies (Federal Trust Fund, FedFund, T-Fund, Treasury Trust Fund and MuniFund): U.S. GAAP defines fair value as the price the Funds would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Funds’ investments are valued under the amortized cost method which approximates current market value in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. Under this method, investments are valued at cost when purchased and, thereafter, a constant proportionate accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums are recorded until the maturity of the security. Each Fund seeks to maintain its NAV per share at $1.00, although there is no assurance that it will be able to do so on a continuing basis.

Fair Value Hierarchy: Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments. These inputs to valuation techniques are categorized into a fair value hierarchy consisting of three broad levels for financial statement purposes as follows:

 

   

Level 1 — Unadjusted price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical assets or liabilities that each Fund has the ability to access

 

   

Level 2 — Other observable inputs (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market–corroborated inputs)

 

   

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available (including the Global Valuation Committee’s assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments)

The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3. The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the fair value hierarchy classification is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The categorization of a value determined for investments is based on the pricing transparency of the investments and is not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities.

 

4.

SECURITIES AND OTHER INVESTMENTS

Repurchase Agreements: Repurchase agreements are commitments to purchase a security from a counterparty who agrees to repurchase the same security at a mutually agreed upon date and price. On a daily basis, the counterparty is required to maintain eligible collateral subject to the agreement and in value no less than the agreed upon repurchase amount. Repurchase agreements may be traded bilaterally, in a tri-party arrangement or may be centrally cleared through a sponsoring agent. Subject to the custodial undertaking associated with a tri-party repurchase arrangement and for centrally cleared repurchase agreements, a third party custodian maintains accounts to hold collateral for a fund and its counterparties. Typically, a fund and counterparty are not permitted to sell, re-pledge or use the collateral absent a default by the counterparty

or a fund, respectively. Certain Funds, along with other registered investment companies advised by the Manager, may transfer uninvested cash into a single joint trading account which is then invested in one or more repurchase agreements. As of period end, FedFund, TempCash, TempFund and T-Fund invested in repurchase agreements through joint trading accounts.

In the event the counterparty defaults and the fair value of the collateral declines, a fund could experience losses, delays and costs in liquidating the collateral.

Repurchase agreements are entered into by a fund under Master Repurchase Agreements (each, an “MRA”). The MRA permits a fund, under certain circumstances including an event of default (such as bankruptcy or insolvency), to offset payables and/or receivables with collateral held by and/or posted to the counterparty. As a result, one single net payment is created. Bankruptcy or insolvency laws of a particular jurisdiction may impose restrictions on or prohibitions against such a right of offset in the event of the MRA counterparty’s bankruptcy or insolvency. Based on the terms of the MRA, a fund receives securities as collateral with a market value in excess of the repurchase price at maturity. Upon a bankruptcy or insolvency of the MRA counterparty, a fund would recognize a liability with respect to such excess collateral. The liability reflects a fund’s obligation under bankruptcy law to return the excess to the counterparty.

INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

Investment Advisory: The Trust, on behalf of the Funds, entered into a management agreement with the Manager, the Trust’s investment adviser and an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of BlackRock, Inc. (“BlackRock”), to provide investment advisory, administration and accounting services to the Funds.

For the management and administrative services provided and certain expenses assumed by it under the management agreement, the Manager is entitled to receive the following annual fees computed daily and paid monthly based upon each Fund’s average daily net assets:

Expense Limitations, Waivers, and Reimbursements: With respect to each Fund, the Manager, as investment adviser and administrator, has contractually agreed to reduce its fees and/or reimburse ordinary operating expenses to ensure that the combined “Management Fees” and “Miscellaneous/Other Expenses,” excluding service fees, distribution fees and any extraordinary expenses, do not exceed 0.18% of the average daily net assets of TempCash and TempFund, 0.17% of the average daily net assets of FedFund, T-Fund, Federal Trust Fund and Treasury Trust Fund and 0.20% of the average daily net assets of MuniCash, MuniFund, California Money Fund and New York Money Fund. Any fees waived by the Manager with respect to a particular fiscal year are not recoverable. The Manager has agreed not to reduce or discontinue this contractual expense limitation prior to March 1, 2021, unless approved by the Board, including a majority of the trustees who are not “interested persons” of the Funds, as defined in the 1940 Act (“Independent Trustees”), or by a vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of such Fund. These amounts are included in fees waived and/or reimbursed by the Manager in the Statements of Operations. For the year ended October 31, 2019, the amounts waived were as follows:

 

 

 

Federal Trust Fund

  $ 2,369,448

In addition, BRIL has contractually agreed to waive service and/or distribution fees through February 28, 2021 so that the net annual fund operating expenses, excluding extraordinary expenses, of the Select Shares and Private Client Shares do not exceed 1.00% and 0.68% of the average daily net assets of the shares, respectively. The agreement renews automatically for successive one-year periods and may be terminated by any party to the agreement upon written notice 75 days prior to the commencement of a successive one year period.

Certain Funds have incurred expenses in connection with the realignment and consolidation of the boards of directors/trustees of certain BlackRock-advised funds. The Manager has voluntarily agreed to reimburse certain Funds for all or a portion of such expenses, which amounts are included in fees waived and/or reimbursed by the Manager in the Statements of Operations. For the year ended October 31, 2019, the amounts reimbursed were as follows:

 

 

 

FedFund

  $ 11,381  

TempFund

    6,525  

T-Fund

    13,344  

Treasury Trust Fund

    2,759  

California Money Fund

    432  

New York Money Fund

    456  

 

 

Transfer Agent: Pursuant to written agreements, certain financial intermediaries, some of which may be affiliates, provide the Funds with sub-accounting, recordkeeping, sub-transfer agency and other administrative services with respect to servicing of underlying investor accounts. For these services, these entities receive an asset-based fee or an annual fee per shareholder account, which will vary depending on share class and/or net assets. For the year ended October 31, 2019, the Funds did not pay any amounts to affiliates in return for these services.

Interfund Lending: In accordance with an exemptive order (the “Order”) from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), each Fund may participate in a joint lending and borrowing facility for temporary purposes (the “Interfund Lending Program”), subject to compliance with the terms and conditions of the Order, and to the extent permitted by each Fund’s investment policies and restrictions. Each Fund is currently permitted to borrow under the Interfund Lending Program.

A lending BlackRock fund may lend in aggregate up to 15% of its net assets, but may not lend more than 5% of its net assets to any one borrowing fund through the Interfund Lending Program. A borrowing BlackRock fund may not borrow through the Interfund Lending Program or from any other source more than 33 1/3% of its total assets (or any lower threshold provided for by the fund’s investment restrictions). If a borrowing BlackRock fund’s total outstanding borrowings exceed 10% of its total assets, each of its outstanding interfund loans will be subject to collateralization of at least 102% of the outstanding principal value of the loan. All interfund loans are for temporary or emergency purposes and the interest rate to be charged will be the average of the highest current overnight repurchase agreement rate available to a lending fund and the bank loan rate, as calculated according to a formula established by the Board.

During the year ended October 31, 2019, the Funds did not participate in the Interfund Lending Program.

Trustees and Officers: Certain trustees and/or officers of the Trust are directors and/or officers of BlackRock or its affiliates. The Funds reimburse the Manager for a portion of the compensation paid to the Funds’ Chief Compliance Officer, which is included in Trustees and Officer in the Statements of Operations.

Other Transactions: The Funds may purchase securities from, or sell securities to, an affiliated fund provided the affiliation is due solely to having a common investment adviser, common officers, or common trustees. For the year ended October 31, 2019, the purchase and sale transactions and any net realized gains (losses) with an affiliated fund in compliance with Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act were as follows:

INCOME TAX INFORMATION

It is each Fund’s policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies, and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders. Therefore, no U.S. federal income tax provision is required.

Each Fund files U.S. federal and various state and local tax returns. No income tax returns are currently under examination. The statute of limitations on each Fund’s U.S. federal tax returns generally remains open for each of the four years ended October 31, 2019. The statutes of limitations on each Fund’s state and local tax returns may remain open for an additional year depending upon the jurisdiction.

PRINCIPAL RISKS

Many municipalities insure repayment of their bonds, which may reduce the potential for loss due to credit risk. The market value of these bonds may fluctuate for other reasons, including market perception of the value of such insurance, and there is no guarantee that the insurer will meet its obligation.

Inventories of municipal bonds held by brokers and dealers may decrease, which would lessen their ability to make a market in these securities. Such a reduction in market making capacity could potentially decrease a Fund’s ability to buy or sell bonds. As a result, a Fund may sell a security at a lower price, sell other securities to raise cash, or give up an investment opportunity, any of which could have a negative impact on performance. If a Fund needed to sell large blocks of bonds, those sales could further reduce the bonds’ prices and impact performance.

In the normal course of business, certain Funds invest in securities or other instruments and may enter into certain transactions, and such activities subject each Fund to various risks, including among others, fluctuations in the market (market risk) or failure of an issuer to meet all of its obligations. The value of securities or other instruments may also be affected by various factors, including, without limitation: (i) the general economy; (ii) the overall market as well as local, regional or global political and/or social instability; (iii) regulation, taxation or international tax treaties between various countries; or (iv) currency, interest rate and price fluctuations. Each Fund’s prospectus provides details of the risks to which each Fund is subject.

Each Fund may be exposed to prepayment risk, which is the risk that borrowers may exercise their option to prepay principal earlier than scheduled during periods of declining interest rates, which would force each Fund to reinvest in lower yielding securities. Each Fund may also be exposed to reinvestment risk, which is the risk that income from each Fund’s portfolio will decline if each Fund invests the proceeds from matured, traded or called fixed-income securities at market interest rates that are below each Fund portfolio’s current earnings rate.

Certain obligations held by the Funds have a credit enhancement or liquidity feature that may, under certain circumstances, provide for repayment of principal and interest on the obligation when due. These enhancements, which may include letters of credit, stand-by bond purchase agreements and/or third party insurance, are issued by financial institutions. The value of the obligations may be affected by changes in creditworthiness of the entities that provide the credit enhancements or liquidity features. The Funds monitor their exposure by reviewing the creditworthiness of the issuers, as well as the financial institutions issuing the credit enhancements and by limiting the amount of holdings with credit enhancements from one financial institution.

Counterparty Credit Risk: The Funds may be exposed to counterparty credit risk, or the risk that an entity may fail to or be unable to perform on its commitments related to unsettled or open transactions. The Funds manage counterparty credit risk by entering into transactions only with counterparties that the Manager believes have the financial resources to honor their obligations and by monitoring the financial stability of those counterparties. Financial assets, which potentially expose the Funds to market, issuer and counterparty credit risks, consist principally of financial instruments and receivables due from counterparties. The extent of the Funds’ exposure to market, issuer and counterparty credit risks with respect to these financial assets is approximately their value recorded in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, less any collateral held by the Funds.

Concentration Risk: MuniCash, MuniFund, California Money Fund and New York Money Fund invest a substantial amount of their assets in issuers located in a single state or limited number of states. This may subject each Fund to the risk that economic, political or social issues impacting a particular state or group of states could have an adverse and disproportionate impact on the income from, or the value or liquidity of, the Funds’ respective portfolios. Investment percentages in specific states or U.S. territories are presented in the Schedules of Investments.

Certain Funds invest a significant portion of their assets in fixed-income securities and/or use derivatives tied to the fixed-income markets. Changes in market interest rates or economic conditions may affect the value and/or liquidity of such investments. Interest rate risk is the risk that prices of bonds and other fixed-income securities will increase as interest rates fall and decrease as interest rates rise. The Funds may be subject to a greater risk of rising interest rates due to the current period of historically low rates.

CAPITAL SHARE TRANSACTIONS

The Trust’s Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited number of full and fractional shares of beneficial interest (shares) and to classify or reclassify any unissued shares into one or more additional classes of shares.

The number of shares sold, reinvested and redeemed corresponds to the net proceeds from the sale of shares, reinvestment of all distributions and cost of shares redeemed, respectively, since shares are sold and redeemed at $1.00 per share for Federal Trust Fund, FedFund, T-Fund, Treasury Trust Fund and MuniFund.

140    2019 BLACKROCK ANNUAL REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS


Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To the Shareholders of Federal Trust Fund, FedFund, TempCash, TempFund, T-Fund, Treasury Trust Fund, MuniCash, MuniFund, California Money Fund, and New York Money Fund and the Board of Trustees of BlackRock Liquidity Funds:

Opinion on the Financial Statements and Financial Highlights

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of Federal Trust Fund, FedFund, TempCash, TempFund, T-Fund, Treasury Trust Fund, MuniCash, MuniFund, California Money Fund, and New York Money Fund of BlackRock Liquidity Funds (the “Funds”), including the schedules of investments, as of October 31, 2019, the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, and the related notes. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Funds as of October 31, 2019, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Funds are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2019, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

142    2019 BLACKROCK ANNUAL REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS


Disclosure of Investment Advisory Agreement

 

The Board of Trustees (the “Board,” the members of which are referred to as “Board Members”) of BlackRock Liquidity Funds (the “Trust”) met in person on April 17, 2019 (the “April Meeting”) and May 14-15, 2019 (the “May Meeting”) to consider the approval of the investment advisory agreement (the “Agreement”) between the Trust, on behalf of each series of the Trust (each, a “Fund” and together, the “Funds”), and BlackRock Advisors, LLC (the “Manager” or “BlackRock”), the Trust’s investment advisor.

Activities and Composition of the Board

On the date of the May Meeting, the Board consisted of fifteen individuals, thirteen of whom were not “interested persons” of the Trust as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”) (the “Independent Board Members”). The Board Members are responsible for the oversight of the operations of the Trust and perform the various duties imposed on the directors of investment companies by the 1940 Act. The Independent Board Members have retained independent legal counsel to assist them in connection with their duties. The Chair of the Board is an Independent Board Member. The Board has established five standing committees: an Audit Committee, a Governance and Nominating Committee, a Compliance Committee, a Performance Oversight Committee and an Ad Hoc Topics Committee, each of which is chaired by an Independent Board Member and composed of Independent Board Members (except for the Ad Hoc Topics Committee, which also has one interested Board Member).

The Agreement

Consistent with the requirements of the 1940 Act, the Board considers the continuation of the Agreement on an annual basis. The Board has four quarterly meetings per year, each typically extending for two days, and additional in-person and telephonic meetings throughout the year, as needed. While the Board also has a fifth one-day meeting to consider specific information surrounding the renewal of the Agreements, the Board’s consideration entails a year-long deliberative process, whereby the Board and its committees assess BlackRock’s services to the Fund. In particular, the Board assessed, among other things, the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Funds by BlackRock, BlackRock’s personnel and affiliates, including (as applicable): investment management; accounting, administrative and shareholder services; oversight of the Funds’ service providers; risk management and oversight; legal and compliance services; and ability to meet applicable legal and regulatory requirements. Throughout the year, including during the contract renewal process, the Independent Board Members were advised by independent legal counsel, and met with independent legal counsel in various executive sessions outside of the presence of management.

During the year, the Board, acting directly and through its committees, considers information that is relevant to its annual consideration of the renewal of the Agreement, including the services and support provided by BlackRock to the Funds and their shareholders. BlackRock also furnished additional information to the Board in response to specific questions from the Board. This additional information is discussed further below in the section titled “Board Considerations in Approving the Agreement.” Among the matters the Board considered, with respect to each Fund, were: (a) investment performance for one-year, three-year, five-year, ten-year, and/or since inception periods, as applicable, against peer funds, applicable benchmark, and performance metrics, as applicable, as well as senior management’s and portfolio managers’ analyses of the reasons for any over-performance or under-performance relative to its peers, benchmarks, and other performance metrics, as applicable; (b) fees, including advisory, administration, if applicable, and other amounts paid to BlackRock and its affiliates by the Fund for services; (c) Fund operating expenses and how BlackRock allocates expenses to the Fund; (d) the resources devoted to, risk oversight of, and compliance reports relating to, implementation of the Fund’s investment objective, policies and restrictions, and meeting regulatory requirements; (e) BlackRock and the Trust’s adherence to applicable compliance policies and procedures; (f) the nature, character and scope of non-investment management services provided by BlackRock and its affiliates and the estimated cost of such services; (g) BlackRock’s and other service providers’ internal controls and risk and compliance oversight mechanisms; (h) BlackRock’s implementation of the proxy voting policies approved by the Board; (i) execution quality of portfolio transactions; (j) BlackRock’s implementation of the Trust’s valuation and liquidity procedures; (k) an analysis of management fees for products with similar investment mandates across the open-end fund, exchange-traded fund (“ETF”), closed-end fund, sub-advised mutual fund, separately managed account, collective investment trust, and institutional separate account product channels, as applicable, and the similarities and differences between these products and the services provided as compared to the Fund; (l) BlackRock’s compensation methodology for its investment professionals and the incentives and accountability it creates, along with investment professionals’ investments in the fund(s) they manage; and (m) periodic updates on BlackRock’s business.

Board Considerations in Approving the Agreement

The Approval Process: Prior to the April Meeting, the Board requested and received materials specifically relating to the Agreement. The Independent Board Members are continuously engaged in a process with their independent legal counsel and BlackRock to review the nature and scope of the information provided to better assist its deliberations. The materials provided in connection with the April Meeting included, among other things: (a) information independently compiled and prepared by Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”), based on either a Lipper classification or Morningstar category, regarding the fees and expenses of each Fund as compared with a peer group of funds as determined by Broadridge (“Expense Peers”) and the investment performance of each Fund as compared with a peer group of funds (“Performance Peers”) and other metrics, as applicable; (b) information on the composition of the Expense Peers and Performance Peers, and a description of Broadridge’s methodology; (c) information on the estimated profits realized by BlackRock and its affiliates pursuant to the Agreement and a discussion of fall-out benefits to BlackRock and its affiliates; (d) a general analysis provided by BlackRock concerning investment management fees received in connection with other types of investment products, such as institutional accounts, sub-advised mutual funds, ETFs, closed-end funds, open-end funds, and separately managed accounts under similar investment mandates, as well as the performance of such other products, as applicable; (e) review of non-management fees; (f) the existence, impact and sharing of potential economies of scale, if any, with the Funds; (g) a summary of aggregate amounts paid by each Fund to BlackRock; (h) sales and redemption data regarding each Fund’s shares; and (i) various additional information requested by the Board as appropriate regarding BlackRock’s and the Funds’ operations.

At the April Meeting, the Board reviewed materials relating to its consideration of the Agreement. As a result of the discussions that occurred during the April Meeting, and as a culmination of the Board’s year-long deliberative process, the Board presented BlackRock with questions and requests for additional information. BlackRock responded to these requests with additional written information in advance of the May Meeting.

At the May Meeting, the Board concluded its assessment of, among other things: (a) the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by BlackRock; (b) the investment performance of each Fund as compared with Performance Peers and other metrics, as applicable; (c) the advisory fee and the estimated cost of the services and estimated

profits realized by BlackRock and its affiliates from their relationship with the Funds; (d) each Fund’s fees and expenses compared to Expense Peers; (e) the sharing of potential economies of scale; (f) fall-out benefits to BlackRock and its affiliates as a result of BlackRock’s relationship with the Funds; and (g) other factors deemed relevant by the Board Members.

The Board also considered other matters it deemed important to the approval process, such as other payments made to BlackRock or its affiliates relating to securities lending and cash management, and BlackRock’s services related to the valuation and pricing of the portfolio holdings of each Fund. The Board noted the willingness of BlackRock personnel to engage in open, candid discussions with the Board. The Board did not identify any particular information as determinative, and each Board Member may have attributed different weights to the various items considered.

A. Nature, Extent and Quality of the Services Provided by BlackRock: The Board, including the Independent Board Members, reviewed the nature, extent and quality of services provided by BlackRock, including the investment advisory services and the resulting performance of each Fund. Throughout the year, the Board compared each Fund’s performance to the performance of a comparable group of mutual funds, relevant benchmark, and performance metrics, as applicable. The Board met with BlackRock’s senior management personnel responsible for investment activities, including the senior investment officers. The Board also reviewed the materials provided by each Fund’s portfolio management team discussing the Fund’s performance and the Fund’s investment objective, strategies and outlook.

The Board considered, among other factors, with respect to BlackRock: the number, education and experience of investment personnel generally and each Fund’s portfolio management team; BlackRock’s research capabilities; investments by portfolio managers in the funds they manage; portfolio trading capabilities; use of technology; commitment to compliance; credit analysis capabilities; risk analysis and oversight capabilities; and the approach to training and retaining portfolio managers and other research, advisory and management personnel. The Board also considered BlackRock’s overall risk management program, including the continued efforts of BlackRock and its affiliates to address cybersecurity risks and the role of BlackRock’s Risk & Quantitative Analysis Group. The Board engaged in a review of BlackRock’s compensation structure with respect to each Fund’s portfolio management team and BlackRock’s ability to attract and retain high-quality talent and create performance incentives.

In addition to investment advisory services, the Board considered the nature and quality of the administrative and other non-investment advisory services provided to each Fund. BlackRock and its affiliates provide the Funds with certain administrative, shareholder and other services (in addition to any such services provided to the Funds by third parties) and officers and other personnel as are necessary for the operations of the Funds. In particular, BlackRock and its affiliates provide the Funds with administrative services including, among others: (i) responsibility for disclosure documents, such as the prospectus, the summary prospectus (as applicable), the statement of additional information and periodic shareholder reports; (ii) oversight of daily accounting and pricing; (iii) responsibility for periodic filings with regulators; (iv) overseeing and coordinating the activities of other service providers, including, among others, each Fund’s custodian, fund accountant, transfer agent, and auditor; (v) organizing Board meetings and preparing the materials for such Board meetings; (vi) providing legal and compliance support; (vii) furnishing analytical and other support to assist the Board in its consideration of strategic issues such as the merger, consolidation or repurposing of certain open-end funds; and (viii) performing or managing administrative functions necessary for the operation of the Funds, such as tax reporting, expense management, fulfilling regulatory filing requirements, overseeing each Fund’s distribution partners, and shareholder call center and other services. The Board reviewed the structure and duties of BlackRock’s fund administration, shareholder services, and legal and compliance departments and considered BlackRock’s policies and procedures for assuring compliance with applicable laws and regulations.

B. The Investment Performance of the Funds and BlackRock: The Board, including the Independent Board Members, also reviewed and considered the performance history of each Fund. In preparation for the April Meeting, the Board was provided with reports independently prepared by Broadridge, which included a comprehensive analysis of each Fund’s performance as of December 31, 2018. Broadridge ranks funds in quartiles, ranging from first to fourth, where first is the most desirable quartile position and fourth is the least desirable. In connection with its review, the Board received and reviewed information regarding the investment performance of each Fund as compared to its Performance Peers. The Board and its Performance Oversight Committee regularly review, and meet with Fund management to discuss, the performance of each Fund throughout the year.

In evaluating performance, the Board focused particular attention on funds with less favorable performance records. The Board also noted that while it found the data provided by Broadridge generally useful, it recognized the limitations of such data, including in particular, that notable differences may exist between a fund and the Performance Peer funds (for example, the investment objective(s) and investment strategies). Further, the Board recognized that the performance data reflects a snapshot of a period as of a particular date and that selecting a different performance period could produce significantly different results. The Board also acknowledged that long-term performance could be impacted by even one period of significant outperformance or underperformance, and that a single investment theme could have the ability to affect long-term performance disproportionately.

The Board noted that for each of the one-, three- and five-year periods reported, California Money Fund, MuniFund, New York Money Fund, FedFund, TempFund, T-Fund and Treasury Trust Fund each ranked in the first quartile against its Performance Peers.

The Board noted that for the one-, three- and five-year periods reported, Federal Trust Fund ranked in the first, second, and first quartiles, respectively, against its Performance Peers.

The Board noted that for the one-, three- and five-year periods reported, TempCash ranked in the first, second, and second quartiles, respectively, against its Performance Peers.

The Board noted that for the one-, three- and five-year periods reported, MuniCash ranked in the second, first and first quartiles, respectively, against its Performance Peers.

C. Consideration of the Advisory/Management Fees and the Estimated Cost of the Services and Estimated Profits Realized by BlackRock and its Affiliates from their Relationship with the Funds: The Board, including the Independent Board Members, reviewed each Fund’s contractual management fee rate compared with those of its Expense Peers. The contractual management fee rate represents a combination of the advisory fee and any administrative fees, before taking into account any reimbursements or fee waivers. The Board also compared each Fund’s total expense ratio, as well as its actual management fee rate, to those of its Expense Peers. The total expense ratio represents a fund’s total net operating expenses, including any 12b-1 or non 12b-1 service fees. The total expense ratio gives effect to any expense reimbursements or fee waivers that benefit a fund, and the actual management fee rate gives effect to any management fee reimbursements or waivers that benefit a fund.

Disclosure of Investment Advisory Agreement  (continued)

 

The Board considered the services provided and the fees charged by BlackRock and its affiliates to other types of clients with similar investment mandates, as applicable, including institutional accounts and sub-advised mutual funds (including mutual funds sponsored by third parties).

The Board received and reviewed statements relating to BlackRock’s financial condition. The Board reviewed BlackRock’s profitability methodology and was also provided with an estimated profitability analysis that detailed the revenues earned and the expenses incurred by BlackRock for services provided to the Funds. The Board reviewed BlackRock’s estimated profitability with respect to each Fund and other funds the Board currently oversees for the year ended December 31, 2018 compared to available aggregate estimated profitability data provided for the prior two years. The Board reviewed BlackRock’s estimated profitability with respect to certain other U.S. fund complexes managed by the Manager and/or its affiliates. The Board reviewed BlackRock’s assumptions and methodology of allocating expenses in the estimated profitability analysis, noting the inherent limitations in allocating costs among various advisory products. The Board recognized that profitability may be affected by numerous factors including, among other things, fee waivers and expense reimbursements by the Manager, the types of funds managed, precision of expense allocations and business mix. The Board thus recognized that calculating and comparing profitability at individual fund levels is difficult.

The Board noted that, in general, individual fund or product line profitability of other advisors is not publicly available. The Board reviewed BlackRock’s overall operating margin, in general, compared to that of certain other publicly-traded asset management firms. The Board considered the differences between BlackRock and these other firms, including the contribution of technology at BlackRock, BlackRock’s expense management, and the relative product mix.

In addition, the Board considered the estimated cost of the services provided to the Funds by BlackRock, and BlackRock’s and its affiliates’ estimated profits relating to the management of the Funds and the other funds advised by BlackRock and its affiliates. As part of its analysis, the Board reviewed BlackRock’s methodology in allocating its costs of managing the Funds, to each respective Fund. The Board considered whether BlackRock has the financial resources necessary to attract and retain high quality investment management personnel to perform its obligations under the Agreement and to continue to provide the high quality of services that is expected by the Board. The Board further considered factors including but not limited to BlackRock’s commitment of time, assumption of risk, and liability profile in servicing the Funds, including in contrast to what is required of BlackRock with respect to other products with similar investment mandates across the open-end fund, ETF, closed-end fund, sub-advised mutual fund, separately managed account, collective investment trust, and institutional separate account product channels, as applicable.

The Board noted that FedFund’s contractual management fee rate ranked in the second quartile, and that the actual management fee rate and total expense ratio ranked in the third and second quartiles, respectively, relative to the Fund’s Expense Peers.

The Board noted that MuniFund’s contractual management fee rate ranked in the third quartile, and that the actual management fee rate and total expense ratio ranked in the first and second quartiles, respectively, relative to the Fund’s Expense Peers.

The Board noted that Federal Trust Fund’s contractual management fee rate ranked in the third quartile, and that the actual management fee rate and total expense ratio each ranked in the second quartile, relative to the Fund’s Expense Peers.

The Board noted that Treasury Trust Fund’s and T-Fund’s contractual management fee rate ranked in the third quartile, and that the actual management fee rate and total expense ratio ranked in the third and second quartiles, respectively, relative to the Fund’s Expense Peers.

The Board noted that MuniCash’s contractual management fee rate ranked in the third quartile, and that the actual management fee rate and total expense ratio ranked in the fourth and second quartiles, respectively, relative to the Fund’s Expense Peers.

The Board noted that TempFund’s contractual management fee rate ranked in the third quartile, and that the actual management fee rate and total expense ratio each ranked in the fourth quartile relative to the Fund’s Expense Peers.

The Board noted that each of the California Money Fund’s and New York Money Fund’s contractual management fee rate ranked in the fourth quartile, and that the actual management fee rate and total expense ratio ranked in the first and second quartiles, respectively, relative to the Fund’s Expense Peers.

The Board noted that TempCash’s contractual management fee rate ranked in the fourth quartile, and that the actual management fee rate and total expense ratio ranked in the fourth and third quartiles, respectively, relative to the Fund’s Expense Peers.

With respect to MuniFund, TempFund, California Money Fund, New York Money Fund, TempCash and MuniCash, the Board noted that each Fund has an advisory fee arrangement that includes breakpoints that adjust the fee rate downward as the size of the pertinent Fund increases above certain contractually specified levels. The Board noted that if the size of the pertinent Fund were to decrease, the Fund could lose the benefit of one or more breakpoints.

With respect to Treasury Trust Fund, FedFund, T-Fund and Federal Trust Fund, the Board also noted that each Fund has an advisory fee arrangement that is based in part on the asset size of the pertinent Fund, and in part on the aggregate asset size of the four Funds, and that for each, the fee rate is adjusted downward as the size of the pertinent Fund, or the aggregate asset size of the four Funds, as applicable, increases above certain contractually specified levels. The Board noted that if the asset size of any of the Funds were to decrease, the Funds could lose the benefit of one or more breakpoints.

The Board further noted that BlackRock and the Board have contractually agreed to a cap on each Fund’s total expenses as a percentage of the pertinent Fund’s average daily net assets on a class-by-class basis.

D. Economies of Scale: The Board, including the Independent Board Members, considered the extent to which economies of scale might be realized as the assets of the Funds increase, including the existence of fee waivers and/or expense caps, as applicable, noting that any contractual fee waivers and expense caps had been approved by the Board. The Board also considered the extent to which each Fund benefits from such economies in a variety of ways and whether there should be changes in the advisory fee rate or breakpoint structure in order to enable the Fund to more fully participate in these economies of scale. The Board considered each Fund’s asset levels and whether the current fee schedule was appropriate. In its consideration, the Board Members took into account the existence of any expense caps and further considered the continuation and/or implementation, as applicable, of such caps.

 

 

DISCLOSURE OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT      145  


Disclosure of Investment Advisory Agreement  (continued)

 

E. Other Factors Deemed Relevant by the Board Members: The Board, including the Independent Board Members, also took into account other ancillary or “fall-out” benefits that BlackRock or its affiliates may derive from BlackRock’s respective relationships with the Funds, both tangible and intangible, such as BlackRock’s ability to leverage its investment professionals who manage other portfolios and risk management personnel, an increase in BlackRock’s profile in the investment advisory community, and the engagement of BlackRock’s affiliates as service providers to the Funds, including for administrative, distribution, securities lending and cash management services. The Board also considered BlackRock’s overall operations and its efforts to expand the scale of, and improve the quality of, its operations. The Board also noted that, subject to applicable law, BlackRock may use and benefit from third party research obtained by soft dollars generated by certain registered fund transactions to assist in managing all or a number of its other client accounts.

In connection with its consideration of the Agreement, the Board also received information regarding BlackRock’s brokerage and soft dollar practices. The Board received reports from BlackRock which included information on brokerage commissions and trade execution practices throughout the year.

The Board noted the competitive nature of the open-end fund marketplace, and that shareholders are able to redeem their Fund shares if they believe that the pertinent Fund’s fees and expenses are too high or if they are dissatisfied with the performance of the Fund.

Conclusion

The Board, including the Independent Board Members, unanimously approved the continuation of the Agreement between the Manager and the Trust, on behalf of each Fund, for a one-year term ending June 30, 2020. Based upon its evaluation of all of the aforementioned factors in their totality, as well as other information, the Board, including the Independent Board Members, was satisfied that the terms of the Agreement were fair and reasonable and in the best interest of each Fund and its shareholders. In arriving at its decision to approve the Agreement, the Board did not identify any single factor or group of factors as all-important or controlling, but considered all factors together, and different Board Members may have attributed different weights to the various factors considered. The Independent Board Members were also assisted by the advice of independent legal counsel in making this determination.

Notice to Shareholders

The following applies to TempCash, TempFund, MuniCash, California Money Fund and New York Money Fund: This report is intended for current holders. It is not authorized for use as an offer of sale or a solicitation of an offer to buy shares of the Funds unless preceded or accompanied by the Funds’ current prospectus. You could lose money by investing in a Fund. Because the share price of the Funds will fluctuate, when you sell your shares they may be worth more or less than what you originally paid for them. The Funds may impose a fee upon sale of your shares or may temporarily suspend your ability to sell shares if the Funds’ liquidity falls below required minimums because of market conditions or other factors. An investment in a Fund is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. The Funds’ sponsor has no legal obligation to provide financial support to the Funds at any time.

The following applies to Federal Trust Fund, FedFund, T-Fund and Treasury Trust Fund: This report is intended for current holders.

(c) Tax Fees2

(d) All Other Fees3

   $2,050,500    $2,274,000

1 The nature of the services includes assurance and related services reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of financial statements not included in Audit Fees, including accounting consultations, agreed-upon procedure reports, attestation reports, comfort letters, out-of-pocket expenses and internal control reviews not required by regulators.

2 The nature of the services includes tax compliance and/or tax preparation, including services relating to the filing or amendment of federal, state or local income tax returns, regulated investment company qualification reviews, taxable income and tax distribution calculations.

3 Non-audit fees of $2,050,500 and $2,274,000 for the current fiscal year and previous fiscal year, respectively, were paid to the Fund’s principal accountant in their entirety by BlackRock, in connection with services provided to the Affiliated Service Providers of the Fund and of certain other funds sponsored and advised by BlackRock or its affiliates for a service organization review and an accounting research tool subscription. These amounts represent aggregate fees paid by BlackRock and were not allocated on a per fund basis.

(e)(1) Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures:

The Committee has adopted policies and procedures with regard to the pre-approval of services. Audit, audit-related and tax compliance services provided to the registrant on an annual basis require specific pre-approval by the Committee. The Committee also must approve other non-audit services provided to the registrant and those non-audit services provided to the Investment Adviser and Affiliated Service Providers that relate directly to the operations and the financial reporting of the registrant. Certain of these non-audit services that the Committee believes are (a) consistent with the SEC’s auditor independence rules and (b) routine and recurring services that will not impair the independence of the independent accountants may be approved by the Committee without consideration on a specific case-by-case basis (“general pre-approval”). The term of any general pre-approval is 12 months from the date of the pre-approval, unless the Committee provides for a different period. Tax or other non-audit services provided to the registrant which have a direct impact on the operations or financial reporting of the registrant will only be deemed pre-approved provided that any individual project does not exceed $10,000 attributable to the registrant or $50,000 per project. For this purpose, multiple projects will be aggregated to determine if they exceed the previously mentioned cost levels.

Any proposed services exceeding the pre-approved cost levels will require specific pre-approval by the Committee, as will any other services not subject to general pre-approval (e.g., unanticipated but permissible services). The Committee is informed of each service approved subject to general pre-approval at the next regularly scheduled in-person board meeting. At this meeting, an analysis of such services is presented to the Committee for ratification. The Committee may delegate to the Committee Chairman the authority to approve the provision of and fees for any specific engagement of permitted non-audit services, including services exceeding pre-approved cost levels.

(e)(2) None of the services described in each of Items 4(b) through (d) were approved by the Committee pursuant to the de minimus exception in paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X.

(f) Not Applicable
