Aviva Investors US Dollar Liquidity Fund 3 Inc
Fund overview
Objective: The investment objective of the Sub-Fund is to offer returns in line with money market rates and preserve the value of the investment. The performance of the Sub-Fund will be benchmarked against the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR). The Aviva Investors US Dollar Liquidity Fund is a Short-Term Low-Volatility Net Asset Value (LVNAV) Money Market Fund allowing shares to be bought, sold and paid for on every dealing day.
Investments: The sub-fund will normally invest in low risk short term debt and debt related securities and money market instruments issued or guaranteed by governments, international bodies, banks and companies. Such securities could include fixed or floating rate instruments including but not limited to commercial paper, term deposits, floating rate notes, certificates of deposit, freely transferable promissory notes, debentures, asset-backed securities and bonds. These can be issued from markets around the world but will be priced in USD.
Strategy: The Sub-Fund is actively managed. The Investment Manager uses credit and interest rate analysis to assemble a highly liquid portfolio of securities while seeking to maximise yields. The weighted average maturity of the fund’s investments will not exceed 60 days and in any event the Sub-Fund's investments will have a residual maturity until the legal redemption date not exceeding 397 days. The weighted average life of the Sub-Fund's investments will not exceed 120 days. The Sub-Fund may invest up to 10% of its Net Asset Value in other Short Term Money Market Funds. The Investment Manager intends, where possible, to manage the Fund according to its classification as a short-term money market fund and the restrictions imposed by recognised rating agencies in order to maintain an overall credit rating of Aaa.

Risks
Warning - Investment Risk & Currency Risk
The value of investments and the income from them will change over time. The Fund price may fall as well as rise and as a result you may not get back the original amount you invested.
Warning - Money Market Securities Risk
The Fund invests in money market instruments such as short term bank debt, the market prices/value of which can rise as well as fall on a daily basis. Their values are affected by changes in interest rates, inflation and any decline in creditworthiness of the issuer.
This is not a guaranteed investment, an investment in a Money Market Fund is different from an investment in deposits and can fluctuate in price meaning you may not get back the original amount you invested. This investment does not rely on external support for guaranteeing liquidity or stabilising the NAV per unit or share. The risk of loss of the principal is to be borne by the investor.
Warning - Sustainability Risk
The level of sustainability risk may fluctuate depending on which investment opportunities the Investment Manager identifies. This means that the fund is exposed to Sustainability Risk which may impact the value of investments over the long term.
Full information on risks applicable to the Fund are in the Prospectus and the Key Investor Information Document (KIID).

Summary review (as at January 2026)
The US Federal Reserve (Fed) held interest rate steady at 3.5% to 3.75% at its first meeting of 2026 at the end of the month, despite pressure from President Trump to lower them. We maintained a strong liquidity profile in the fund. We primarily invested in short-term tenors with modest extensions to three months and one year.
