Investments, Risks, and Performance

Principal Investment Strategies The fund is a money fund managed in compliance with Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The fund is managed to provide a stable share price of $1.00 by investing in high-quality, U.S. dollar-denominated money market securities. The fund’s weighted average maturity will not

exceed 60 days, the fund’s weighted average life will not exceed 120 days, and the fund will not purchase any security with a remaining maturity longer than 397 calendar days (unless otherwise permitted by Rule 2a-7). When calculating its weighted average maturity, the fund may shorten its maturity by using the interest rate resets of certain adjustable rate securities. The fund may not take into account these resets when calculating its weighted average life.

The fund buys securities within the two highest short-term rating categories assigned by at least one major credit rating agency or, if unrated, deemed to be of comparable quality by T. Rowe Price. All securities purchased by the fund present minimal credit risk in the opinion of T. Rowe Price. In selecting securities for the fund, the portfolio manager may examine relationships among yields of various types and maturities of money market securities in the context of interest rate outlooks. The fund’s yield will fluctuate with changes in short-term interest rates.

The fund may invest in municipal money market securities issued by state and local governments as well as money market securities issued by foreign companies and financial institutions, which include U.S. dollar-denominated money market securities traded outside of the U.S. and U.S. dollar-denominated money market securities of foreign issuers traded in the U.S.

The fund may sell holdings for a variety of reasons, such as to adjust the portfolio’s average maturity or to shift assets into and out of higher-yielding securities.

Principal Risks As with any mutual fund, there can be no guarantee the fund will achieve its objective. Although the fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the fund. An investment in the fund is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Money funds have experienced significant pressures from shareholder redemptions, issuer credit downgrades, illiquid markets, and historically low yields on the securities they can hold. There have been a very small number of money funds in other fund complexes that have “broken the buck,” which means that those funds’ investors did not receive $1.00 per share for their investment in those funds. You should be aware that the fund’s investment adviser is under no obligation to provide financial support to the fund or take other measures to ensure that you receive $1.00 per share for your investment in the fund. The potential for realizing a loss of principal in the fund could derive from:

Credit risk This is the risk that an issuer of a debt security could suffer an adverse change in financial condition that results in a payment default, security downgrade, or inability to meet a financial obligation. Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 requires that money funds invest in securities rated in the two highest short-term credit rating categories. However, the credit quality of the securities held by the fund may change rapidly in certain market environments.


  

Summary

Interest rate risk This is the risk that a decline in interest rates will lower a fund’s yield, or that a rise in the overall level of interest rates will cause a decline in the prices of fixed income securities held by a fund. The fund’s yield will vary; it is not fixed for a specific period like the yield on a bank certificate of deposit. This is a disadvantage when interest rates are falling because the fund would have to reinvest at lower interest rates. During periods of extremely low or negative short-term interest rates, the fund may not be able to maintain a positive yield or yields on par with historical levels. In addition, the adoption of more stringent regulations governing the management of money funds could have a negative effect on the fund’s yield. Finally, the fund’s investment adviser may discontinue its voluntary waiver of the fund’s management fee at any time, which could also negatively affect the fund’s yield.

Liquidity risk This is the risk that the fund may not be able to sell a holding in a timely manner at a desired price. The fund may experience heavy redemptions, particularly during periods of declining or illiquid markets, which could cause the fund to liquidate its assets at inopportune times or at a depressed value and affect the fund's ability to maintain a $1.00 share price. In addition, the fund may suspend redemptions when permitted by applicable regulations.

Municipal securities risk This is the risk that the fund’s investments in municipal securities may be adversely affected by changes in the financial condition of certain municipal securities issuers and the economy, as well as by events such as unfavorable legislative or political developments that impact the overall municipal securities markets or certain sectors of the municipal securities market. The secondary market for certain municipal securities tends to be less developed and liquid than many other securities markets.

Foreign investing risk This is the risk that the fund’s investments in foreign securities may be adversely affected by political and economic conditions overseas, reduced liquidity, or differences in settlement and regulatory standards.

Performance The bar chart showing calendar year returns and the average annual total returns table indicate risk by illustrating how much returns can differ from one year to the next. The fund’s past performance is not necessarily an indication of future performance.

The fund can also experience short-term performance swings, as shown by the best and worst calendar quarter returns during the years depicted.

Tax Information

The fund declares dividends daily and pays them on the first business day of each month. Any capital gains are declared and paid annually, usually in December. Distributions by the fund, whether or not you reinvest these amounts in additional fund shares, may be taxed as ordinary income or capital gains unless you invest through a tax-deferred account. A redemption or exchange of fund shares may be taxable.

Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries

If you purchase shares of the fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary, the fund and its related companies may pay the intermediary for the performance of administrative services. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the broker-dealer or other intermediary and your salesperson to recommend the fund over another investment. Ask your salesperson or visit your financial intermediary’s website for more information on these payments.
