Fund Families

The term "money market fund" refers to a mutual fund whose investments are in high-yield short-term instruments, such as federal securities, CDs and commercial paper. The fund's intent is to make such instruments, normally purchased in large denominations and only by institutions, available (indirectly) to the individual investor. Open your account today.

Note: As you may know, new Securities and Exchange Commission rules governing money market funds will go into effect on October 14, 2016. For more information, view the FAQ on these new regulations.

Money market funds, like mutual funds, are neither FDIC-insured nor guaranteed by the U.S. government or government agency and are not deposits or obligations of, or guaranteed by, any bank. Although certain money market funds seek to preserve their value of your investment at $1 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in such a fund. Mutual fund purchases may be subject to eligibility and other restrictions, as well as charges and expenses. Certain money market funds may impose liquidity fees and redemption gates in certain circumstances. Please read the prospectus carefully before investing. Tax exempt funds may pay dividends that are subject to the alternative minimum tax and also may pay taxable dividends due to investments in taxable obligations.

Before investing in investment company securities, be sure to carefully consider the security's objectives, risks, charges, and expenses. For a prospectus containing this and other important information, contact the investment company or a TD Ameritrade Client Services representative. Please read the prospectus carefully before investing.

Past performance does not guarantee future results.

TD Ameritrade receives remuneration from mutual fund companies, including those participating in its no-load, no-transaction-fee program, for recordkeeping, shareholder services, and other administrative and distribution services. The amount of TD Ameritrade's remuneration for these services is based in part on the amount of investments in such funds by TD Ameritrade clients. PLEASE ALSO SEE IMPORTANT ADDITIONAL FUND FEE DISCLOSURE INFORMATION

No-transaction-fee funds and other funds offered through TD Ameritrade have other fees and expenses that apply to a continued investment in the fund and are described in the prospectus.

Mutual funds, closed-end funds and exchange-traded funds are subject to market, exchange rate, political, credit, interest rate, and prepayment risks, which vary depending on the type of fund. International investments involve special risks, including currency fluctuations and political and economic instability. Asset allocation and diversification do not eliminate the risk of experiencing investment losses. Fund purchases may be subject to investment minimums, eligibility and other restrictions, as well as charges and expenses.

Some mutual funds sold through TD Ameritrade impose a charge on the purchase of shares, called a “sales load.” An investor may be able to purchase fund shares through TD Ameritrade without paying a front-end sales load, but an investor may be charged a fee, called a “contingent deferred sales charge,” when the investor sells or redeems shares. TD Ameritrade may receive part or all of the sales load.

Some mutual funds offer reductions in front-end sales loads (“breakpoints”) for purchases over certain amounts or purchases through Letters of Intent or Rights of Accumulation. Some funds also offer waivers of those loads, often to retirement plans or charities. Such breakpoints or waivers will be as further described in the prospectus. You, as the investor, should determine and obtain any breakpoints or waivers or provide TD Ameritrade with sufficient information to assist it in obtaining them.

Most mutual funds charge 2.00% on the redemption of shares (including by exchange) held for less than a certain number of calendar days. Performance figures reported do not reflect the deduction of this fee. If reflected, the fee would reduce the performance quoted. Please refer to the fund's prospectus for redemption fee information. TD Ameritrade may also charge its own short-term redemption fee.

See the SEC Guide to Mutual Funds for more information.
