SCAXX Investment Objective and Strategy
Schwab California Municipal Money Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Charles Schwab Family Of Funds.
Investment objective
The funds goal is to seek the highest current income that is consistent with stability of capital and liquidity, and is exempt from federal and California personal income tax.
Principal investment strategy
To pursue its goal, the fund invests in money market securities from California issuers and from municipal agencies, U.S. territories and possessions. These securities may include general obligation issues, which typically are backed by the issuers ability to levy taxes; revenue bonds, which typically are backed by a stream of revenue from a given source, such as a public water system or hospital; municipal commercial paper and municipal notes; and municipal leases, which may be used to finance construction or equipment purchases. The fund may invest more than 25% of its total assets in municipal securities financing similar projects such as those relating to education, health care, transportation, utilities, industrial development and housing. Under normal circumstances, the fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets (including, for this purpose, any borrowings for investment purposes) in municipal money market securities the interest from which is exempt from federal and California personal income tax.
Up to 20% of the funds net assets may be invested in securities subject to federal income tax and/or California personal income tax, such as non-California municipal obligations, government securities or repurchase agreements. When the fund makes such investments, a higher portion of the funds distributions will likely be subject to federal income tax and/or California personal income tax. The fund may purchase certain variable-rate demand securities issued by closed-end municipal bond funds, which, in turn, invest primarily in portfolios of California tax-exempt municipal bonds. It is anticipated that the interest on the variable-rate demand securities will be exempt from federal income tax and California personal income tax. These securities are considered municipal money market securities for purposes of the funds 80% investment policy stated above.
Many of the funds securities will be subject to credit or liquidity enhancements from U.S. and/or non-U.S. entities, which are designed to provide incremental levels of creditworthiness or liquidity. Some municipal securities have been structured to resemble variable- and floating-rate securities so that they meet the requirements for being considered money market instruments. In choosing securities, the funds manager seeks to maximize current income within the limits of the funds investment objective and credit, maturity and diversification policies. Some of these policies may be stricter than the federal regulations that apply to all money market funds. The investment advisers credit research department analyzes and monitors the securities that the fund owns or is considering buying. The manager may adjust the funds holdings or its average maturity based on actual or anticipated changes in credit quality or market dynamics, such as interest rates.
To preserve its investors capital, the fund seeks to maintain a stable $1.00 share price by operating as a retail money market fund, as such term is defined or interpreted under the rules governing money market funds. For temporary defensive purposes during unusual market conditions, the fund may invest in excess of 20% of the funds assets in securities subject to federal income tax and/or California personal income tax, or may hold any portion of the funds assets in cash. When the fund engages in such activities, it may not achieve its investment goal.
