Liquidity Account Explanation
What is it?
The Liquidity Account represents a small portion of assets held at AEF. It allows AEF’s quarterly administrative fees to be withdrawn without investment disruption. It is replenished annually.
Where is it held?
Liquidity Accounts for each AEF DAF are held in cash equivalents such as money market funds and short-term U.S. Treasuries.
When a Donor Advised Fund is funded, AEF typically requests within 30-60 days an initial contribution to the Liquidity Account of 1% of the donors’ Fund balance. The remaining assets stay in the Investment Account.
