SWGXX Investment Objective and Strategy

Schwab Government 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 consistent with stability of capital and liquidity.

Principal investment strategy

To pursue its goal, the fund invests in U.S. government securities, such as: U.S. Treasury bills and notes other obligations that are issued by the U.S. government, its agencies or instrumentalities, including obligations that are not fully guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury, such as those issued by the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae), the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac) and the Federal Home Loan Banks repurchase agreements that are collateralized fully by cash and/ or U.S. government securities obligations that are issued by private issuers that are guaranteed as to principal or interest by the U.S. government, its agencies or instrumentalities The fund intends to operate as a government money market fund under the regulations governing money market funds.

The fund will invest at least 99.5% of its total assets in cash, U.S. government securities and/or repurchase agreements that are collateralized fully by cash and/or U.S. government securities; under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the funds net assets (including, for this purpose, any borrowings for investment purposes) will be invested solely in U.S. government securities including repurchase agreements that are collateralized fully by U.S. government securities (excluding cash). With respect to the 80% policy, the fund will notify its shareholders at least 60 days before changing the policy. 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. Although the income from U.S. Treasury securities is exempt from state and local income taxes, the fund invests in non-U.S. Treasury investments, which include repurchase agreements, that are not exempt from state and local income taxes. Further, during unusual market conditions, the fund may invest a greater portion of its assets in investments that are not exempt from state and local income taxes as a temporary defensive measure.

For temporary defensive purposes during unusual market conditions, the fund may invest up to 100% of its assets in cash, cash equivalents or other high quality short-term investments. As a government money market fund, the funds Board of Trustees (the Board) has determined not to subject the fund to a liquidity fee on fund redemptions. Please note that the Board has reserved its ability to change this determination with respect to liquidity fees, but only after providing appropriate prior notice to shareholders.
