Performance data quoted represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results, and current performance may be lower or higher than the figures shown. Performance information for the 7-day effective yield assumes that all dividends and distributions, if any, were reinvested. For the most recent month-end performance figures, please visit www.morganstanley.com/im. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate causing portfolio shares, when redeemed, to be worth more or less than their original cost. Total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on portfolio distributions or the redemption of portfolio shares.
Investments in the Money Market, Prime, Government, Treasury and Tax-Exempt Portfolios (the “Portfolios”) are neither insured nor guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Although the Portfolios seek to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in these Portfolios. Please read MSILF’s prospectuses carefully before you invest or send money.
Yield quotation more closely reflects the current earnings of the Portfolios than the total return. As with all money market portfolios, yields will fluctuate as market conditions change and the seven-day yields are not necessarily indicative of future performance.

Investment Overview (unaudited)
Money Market Portfolio
The Money Market Portfolio seeks preservation of capital, daily liquidity and maximum current income. The Portfolio seeks to maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per share by investing in liquid, high quality U.S. dollar denominated money market instruments of U.S. and foreign financial and non-financial corporations. The Portfolio also invests in obligations of foreign governments and in obligations of the U.S. government and its agencies and instrumentalities.
Performance
For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2006, the Portfolio’s Institutional Share Class had a total return of 4.89%. For the seven-day period ended October 31, 2006, the Portfolio’s Institutional Share Class provided an annualized current yield of 5.29%, while its 30-day moving average annualized yield was 5.27%.
Factors Affecting Performance
Throughout most of the fiscal period under review, the Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) continued its pattern of raising short-term rates begun in June of 2004. From November 2005 through June 2006, the Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) increased its target rate for federal funds from 3.75% to 5.25% in six steps of 25 basis points each. Given signs of moderating economic growth, a cooling housing market and the lagged effect of monetary policy action already taken, the Fed left its target federal funds rate unchanged at the August, September and October 2006 meetings.
As the fiscal period began, economic growth was relatively weak largely due to the negative impact of hurricane Katrina. Fourth quarter 2005 real gross domestic product (“GDP”) grew by only a 1.8% annualized rate. GDP growth strongly rebounded in the first quarter of 2006 to 5.6% only to moderate during the second and third quarters of 2006 at 2.6% and 1.6% (preliminary estimate), respectively. Despite slowing economic growth, the U.S. unemployment rate dropped to 4.4% for October 2006, representing a five-year low and an improvement from the 4.9% unemployment rate that existed when the fiscal period commenced. During the fiscal period, measures of core inflation remained at a level higher than the Fed’s stated comfort zone.
Management Strategies
As of October 31, 2006, the Portfolio had net assets of approximately $5.8 billion and a weighted average maturity (“WAM”) of 41 days. As of the end of October, roughly 56% of the Portfolio was invested in commercial paper, 13% in floating rate obligations, 14% in extendible notes, 8% in repurchase agreements, 5% in certificates of deposit and 4% in corporate notes.
Over the past fiscal year, we have continued to follow primarily a strategy of concentrating maturing investments near the next FOMC meeting date in order to capitalize on higher expected money market interest rates. This has primarily been achieved by investing in commercial paper that matures around each FOMC meeting date, as well as significant holdings in floating rate note paper with short reset indices such as fed funds, Prime, and 1 month LIBOR. Later in the fiscal period, as signs of moderating economic growth became more prevalent, we began to extend the Portfolio’s WAM by purchasing in the 3-6 month part of the money market curve. In addition, we selectively purchased a small amount of 6-12 month paper in order to extend the Portfolio’s WAM into the 40-day range.
Expense Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees and other Portfolio expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the six-month period ended October 31, 2006 and held for the entire six-month period.
Actual Expenses
The first line of the tables below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Please note that “Expenses Paid During Period” are grossed up to reflect Portfolio expenses prior to the effect of Expense Offset (See Note E) in the Notes to Financial Statements. Therefore, the annualized net expense ratios may differ from the ratio of the expenses to average net assets shown in the Financial Highlights.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the tables below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may

Investment Overview (unaudited)
Prime Portfolio
The Prime Portfolio seeks preservation of capital, daily liquidity and maximum current income. The Portfolio seeks to maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per share by investing in liquid, high quality money market instruments of domestic financial and non-financial corporations, as well as obligations of the U.S. government and its agencies and instrumentalities.
Performance
For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2006, the Portfolio’s Institutional Share Class had a total return of 4.86%. For the seven-day period ended October 31, 2006, the Portfolio’s Institutional Share Class provided an annualized current yield of 5.26%, while its 30-day moving average annualized yield was 5.26%.
Factors Affecting Performance
Throughout most of the fiscal period under review, the Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) continued its pattern of raising short-term rates begun in June of 2004. From November 2005 through June 2006, the Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) increased its target rate for federal funds from 3.75% to 5.25% in six steps of 25 basis points each. Given signs of moderating economic growth, a cooling housing market and the lagged effect of monetary policy action already taken, the Fed left its target federal funds rate unchanged at its August, September and October 2006 meetings.
As the fiscal period began, economic growth was relatively weak largely due to the negative impact of hurricane Katrina. Fourth quarter 2005 real gross domestic product (“GDP”) grew by only a 1.8% annualized rate. GDP growth strongly rebounded in the first quarter of 2006 to 5.6% only to moderate during the second and third quarters of 2006 at 2.6% and 1.6% (preliminary estimate), respectively. Despite slowing economic growth, the U.S. unemployment rate dropped to 4.4% for October 2006, representing a five-year low and an improvement from the 4.9% unemployment rate that existed when the fiscal period commenced. During the fiscal period, measures of core inflation remained at a level higher than the Fed’s stated comfort zone.
Management Strategies
As of October 31, 2006, the Portfolio had net assets of approximately $17.8 billion and a weighted average maturity (“WAM”) of 33 days. As of the end of October, roughly 53% of the Portfolio was invested in commercial paper, 22% in floating rate notes, 11% repurchase agreements, 5% in extendible notes, 4% in certificate of deposits, 3% in time deposit and 2% in corporate notes.
Over the past fiscal year, we have continued to follow primarily a strategy of concentrating maturing investments near the next FOMC meeting date in order to capitalize on higher expected money market interest rates. This has primarily been achieved by investing in commercial paper that matures around each FOMC meeting date, as well as significant holdings in floating-rate note paper with short reset indices such as fed funds, Prime, and 1-month LIBOR. Later in the fiscal period, as signs of moderating economic growth became more prevalent, we began to extend the Portfolio’s WAM by purchasing in the three- to six-month part of the money market curve.
Expense Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees and other Portfolio expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the six-month period ended October 31, 2006 and held for the entire six-month period.
Actual Expenses
The first line of the tables below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Please note that “Expenses Paid During Period” are grossed up to reflect Portfolio expenses prior to the effect of Expense Offset (See Note E) in the Notes to Financial Statements. Therefore, the annualized net expense ratios may differ from the ratio of the expenses to average net assets shown in the Financial Highlights.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the tables below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Investment Overview (unaudited)
Government Portfolio
The Government Portfolio seeks preservation of capital, daily liquidity and maximum current income. The Portfolio seeks to maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per share by investing exclusively in obligations of the U.S. government and its agencies and instrumentalities and in repurchase agreements collateralized by such securities.
Performance
For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2006, the Portfolio’s Institutional Share Class had a total return of 4.87%. For the seven-day period ended October 31, 2006, the Portfolio’s Institutional Share Class provided an annualized current yield of 5.24%, while its 30-day moving average annualized yield was 5.23%.
Factors Affecting Performance
Throughout most of the fiscal period under review, the Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) continued its pattern of raising short-term rates begun in June of 2004. From November 2005 through June 2006, the Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) increased its target rate for federal funds from 3.75% to 5.25% in six steps of 25 basis points each. Given signs of moderating economic growth, a cooling housing market and the lagged effect of monetary policy action already taken, the Fed left its target federal funds rate unchanged at its August, September and October 2006 meetings.
As the fiscal period began, economic growth was relatively weak largely due to the negative impact of hurricane Katrina. Fourth quarter 2005 real gross domestic product (“GDP”) grew by only a 1.8% annualized rate. GDP growth strongly rebounded in the first quarter of 2006 to 5.6%, only to moderate during the second and third quarters of 2006 at 2.6% and 1.6% (preliminary estimate), respectively. Despite slowing economic growth, the U.S. unemployment rate dropped to 4.4% for October 2006, representing a five-year low and an improvement from the 4.9% unemployment rate that existed when the fiscal period commenced. During the fiscal period, measures of core inflation remained at a level higher than the Fed’s stated comfort zone.
Management Strategies
As of October 31, 2006, the Portfolio had net assets of approximately $3.0 billion and an average maturity of 21 days. As of the end of October, roughly 78% of the Portfolio was invested in overnight and term repurchase agreements, 11% in floating rate obligations and 11% in fixed rate obligations.
Over the past fiscal year, we have continued to follow primarily a strategy of concentrating our investments in either fixed rate securities that mature or floating rate notes that reset near the next FOMC meeting date in order to capitalize on higher expected money market interest rates. This has primarily been achieved by investing in overnight and term repurchase agreements and floating rate notes. Later in the fiscal period, as signs of moderating economic growth became more prevalent, we also selectively added several positions in discount notes or debentures in the 4-month or longer portion of the money market curve.
Expense Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees and other Portfolio expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the six-month period ended October 31, 2006 and held for the entire six-month period.
Actual Expenses
The first line of the tables below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Please note that “Expenses Paid During Period” are grossed up to reflect Portfolio expenses prior to the effect of Expense Offset (See Note E) in the Notes to Financial Statements. Therefore, the annualized net expense ratios may differ from the ratio of the expenses to average net assets shown in the Financial Highlights.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the tables below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Investment Overview (unaudited)
Treasury Portfolio
The Treasury Portfolio seeks preservation of capital, daily liquidity and maximum current income. The Portfolio seeks to maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per share by investing exclusively in U.S. Treasury obligations and repurchase agreements collateralized by such securities.
Performance
For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2006, the Portfolio’s Institutional Share Class had a total return of 4.82%. For the seven-day period ended October 31, 2006, the Portfolio’s Institutional Share Class provided an annualized current yield of 5.26%, while its 30-day moving average annualized yield was 5.26%.
Factors Affecting Performance
Throughout most of the fiscal period under review, the Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) continued its pattern of raising short-term rates begun in June of 2004. From November 2005 through June 2006, the Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) increased its target rate for federal funds from 3.75% to 5.25% in six steps of 25 basis points each. Given signs of moderating economic growth, a cooling housing market and the lagged effect of monetary policy action already taken, the Fed left its target federal funds rate unchanged at the August, September and October 2006 meetings.
As the fiscal period began, economic growth was relatively weak largely due to the negative impact of hurricane Katrina. Fourth quarter 2005 real gross domestic product (“GDP”) grew by only a 1.8% annualized rate. GDP growth strongly rebounded in the first quarter of 2006 to 5.6% only to moderate during the second and third quarters of 2006 at 2.6% and 1.6% (preliminary estimate), respectively. Despite slowing economic growth, the U.S. unemployment rate dropped to 4.4% for October 2006, representing a five-year low and an improvement from the 4.9% unemployment rate that existed when the fiscal period commenced. During the fiscal period, measures of core inflation remained at a level higher than the Fed’s stated comfort zone.
Management Strategies
As of October 31, 2006, the Portfolio had net assets of approximately $80.0 million and a weighted average maturity of 2 days. As of the end of October, roughly 99% of the Portfolio was invested in overnight repurchase agreements, along with 1% held in direct treasury obligations.
Over the past fiscal year, we have continued to follow primarily a strategy of concentrating maturing investments near the next FOMC meeting date in order to capitalize on higher expected money market interest rates. This has primarily been achieved by investing in overnight and term repurchase agreements backed by treasury collateral.
Expense Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees and other Portfolio expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the six-month period ended October 31, 2006 and held for the entire six-month period.
Actual Expenses
The first line of the tables below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Please note that “Expenses Paid During Period” are grossed up to reflect Portfolio expenses prior to the effect of Expense Offset (See Note E) in the Notes to Financial Statements. Therefore, the annualized net expense ratios may differ from the ratio of the expenses to average net assets shown in the Financial Highlights.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the tables below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

2006 Annual Report
October 31, 2006
Investment Overview (unaudited)
Tax-Exempt Portfolio
The Tax-Exempt Portfolio seeks to maximize current income exempt from federal income tax to the extent consistent with preservation of capital and maintenance of liquidity. The Portfolio seeks to maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per share by investing at least 80% of its assets in high quality short-term municipal obligations, the interest of which is exempt from federal income taxes and is not subject to the federal alternative minimum tax.
Performance
For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2006, the Portfolio’s Institutional Share Class had a total return of 3.27%. For the seven-day period ended October 31, 2006, the Portfolio’s Institutional Share Class provided an annualized current yield of 3.48%, while its 30-day moving average annualized yield was 3.44%.
Factors Affecting Performance
The Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) continued to pursue its tightening policy throughout much of the 12-month reporting period, raising the target federal funds rate in 25 basis point increments at each of its meetings to 5.25% by the end of June. In the months that followed, economic growth moderated and inflation concerns eased, prompting the Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) to end its record two-year run of 17 consecutive rate increases.
In response to Fed actions, tax-exempt money market yields as measured by 30-day commercial paper rose more than 35 percent during the first eight months of the period. Along with the pause by the Fed after its June meeting, yields leveled out during the final four months of the period.
The rising-rate environment led money market securities with the shortest maturities to perform particularly well during the period. Higher short-term rates spurred demand for tax-exempt money market instruments, particularly variable-rate securities which adjust their yields in response to changing interest rates. At the same time, new-issue supply declined, further fueling performance of the short-term municipal market. Tightening supply conditions did, however, cause the relationship of tax-exempt yields to taxable yields to become less favorable at various times during the period. As such, overall growth of tax-exempt money market funds was less robust than that of taxable money market funds.
Management Strategies
In anticipation of ongoing rate increases, we continued to conservatively manage the Portfolio, favoring securities with daily and weekly rate reset features for much of the period. This strategy allowed for added flexibility and liquidity, enabling the Portfolio to capture higher yields.
In the latter months of the period, as interest rates stabilized, we began to look for opportunities to extend the weighted average maturity (“WAM”) of the Portfolio to lock in favorable yields. We did so by seeking out investments in longer maturity three-, six-, and nine-month fixed-rate securities such as commercial paper, notes and bonds. This strategy was also additive to performance. Investment commitments beyond nine months were largely avoided because of remaining uncertainty on the course of monetary policy as well as less attractive yield ratios relative to taxable securities of comparable maturity.
As of the end of the period, the Portfolio’s WAM was 15 days. Variable-rate securities represented 84% of holdings while commercial paper and fixed-rate notes and bonds were 10% and 6% of holdings, respectively.
Expense Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees and other Portfolio expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the six-month period ended October 31, 2006 and held for the entire six-month period.
Actual Expenses
The first line of the tables below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Please note that “Expenses Paid During Period” are grossed up to reflect Portfolio expenses prior to the effect of Expense Offset (See Note E) in the Notes to Financial Statements. Therefore, the annualized net expense ratios may differ from the ratio of the expenses to average net assets shown in the Financial Highlights.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the tables below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and

expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

2006 Annual Report
October 31, 2006
Notes to Financial Statements
Morgan Stanley Institutional Liquidity Funds (the “Fund”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), as amended, as a Massachusetts business trust. The Fund is comprised of five separate, active, diversified portfolios (individually referred to as a “Portfolio”, collectively as the “Portfolios”). The Fund offers up to seven different classes of shares for certain Portfolios - - Institutional Class, Service Class, Investor Class, Administrative Class, Advisory Class, Participant Class and Cash Management Class. All classes of shares have identical voting rights (except that shareholders of a Class have exclusive voting rights regarding any matter relating solely to that Class of shares), dividend, liquidation and other rights. For detailed descriptions of the investment objectives of each of the Portfolios and other related information, please refer to the Prospectuses of the Fund. Generally, the investment objective of the Portfolios is to seek preservation of capital, daily liquidity and maximum current income (exempt from federal income tax in the case of Tax-Exempt Portfolio).
A. Accounting Policies: The following significant accounting policies are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Such policies are consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of the financial statements. U.S. generally accepted accounting principles may require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
1. Security Valuation: Securities owned by the Portfolios are stated at amortized cost which approximates market value.
2. Repurchase Agreements: Certain Portfolios may enter into repurchase agreements under which a Portfolio lends excess cash and takes possession of securities with an agreement that the counterparty will repurchase such securities. In connection with transactions in repurchase agreements, a bank as custodian for the Fund takes possession of the underlying securities which are held as collateral, with a market value at least equal to the amount of the repurchase transaction, including principal and accrued interest. To the extent that any repurchase transaction exceeds one business day, the value of the collateral is marked-to-market on a daily basis to determine the adequacy of the collateral. In the event of default on the obligation to repurchase, the Fund has the right to liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in satisfaction of the obligation. In the event of default or bankruptcy by the counterparty to the agreement, realization and/or retention of the collateral or proceeds may be subject to legal proceedings. The Portfolios, along with other affiliated investment companies, may utilize a joint trading account for the purpose of entering into repurchase agreements.
3. New Accounting Pronouncements: In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation establishes for all entities, including pass-through entities such as the Portfolios, a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of positions taken in filing tax returns (including whether an entity is taxable in a particular jurisdiction), and requires certain expanded tax disclosures. The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, and is to be applied to all open tax years as of the date of effectiveness. Management has recently begun to evaluate the application of the Interpretation to the Portfolios, and is not in a position at this time to estimate the significance of its impact, if any, on the Portfolios’ financial statements.
4. Other: Security transactions are accounted for on the date the securities are purchased or sold. Realized gains and losses on the sale of investment securities are determined on a “first-in-first-out” basis. Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis except where collection is in doubt. Discounts and premiums on securities purchased are amortized over their respective lives. Most expenses of the Fund can be directly attributed to a particular Portfolio. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among the Portfolios based upon relative net assets. Income, expenses (other than class specific expenses) and realized and unrealized gains or losses are allocated to each class of shares based upon their relative net assets. Dividends to the shareholders of the Portfolios are accrued daily and are distributed on the last business day of each month.
B. Investment Advisory Fees: Morgan Stanley Investment Management Inc. (the “Adviser” or “MS Investment Management”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Morgan Stanley, provides the Fund with investment advisory services under the terms of an Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Agreement”) at the annual rates of average daily net assets indicated below. The Adviser has voluntarily agreed to reduce its advisory fee and/or absorb other expenses so that total annual operating expenses of each share class will not exceed the amounts noted below. This fee and expense waiver may be discontinued at any time.

The Ratio of Expenses to Average Net Assets disclosed in the Portfolios’ Financial Highlights may be lower than the maximum ratios indicated in the table above due to additional voluntary expense limitations imposed by the Adviser. The Adviser may terminate these additional voluntary limitations at any time at its sole discretion.
The Adviser has entered into a Sub-Advisory Agreement with Morgan Stanley Investment Advisors Inc. (the “Sub-Adviser”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Morgan Stanley. The Sub-Adviser, subject to the control and supervision of the Fund, its officers, Trustees and the Adviser, and in accordance with the investment objectives, policies and restrictions of the Portfolios, makes day-to-day investment decisions for the Portfolios and places the Portfolios’ purchase and sales orders. The Adviser pays the Sub-Adviser on a monthly basis a portion of the net advisory fees the Adviser receives from the Portfolios.
C. Administration Fees: MS Investment Management (the “Administrator”) also serves as Administrator to the Fund pursuant to an Administration Agreement. Under the agreement, MS Investment Management receives an annual fee, accrued daily and payable monthly, of 0.05% of each Portfolio’s average daily net assets, plus reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses. JPMorgan Investor Services Co. (“JPMIS”), a corporate affiliate of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., provides fund accounting and other services pursuant to a sub-administration agreement with MS Investment Management and receives compensation for these services from MS Investment Management. JPMIS also serves as the Transfer Agent to the Fund pursuant to a Transfer Agency Agreement. An employee of JPMIS is an officer of the Fund.
D. Distribution and Service and Shareholder Administration Plan Fees:
Morgan Stanley Distribution, Inc. (the “Distributor”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of MS Investment Management, and an indirect subsidiary of Morgan Stanley, serves as the distributor of the Fund. The Fund has entered into an Administration Plan with respect to its Service Class, Investor Class and Administrative Class shares pursuant to which each class of shares will pay the Distributor a monthly or quarterly fee at an annual rate of up to 0.05%, 0.10% and 0.15%, of the average daily net assets of each such class of shares, respectively to compensate certain financial intermediaries who provide administrative services to shareholders.
The Fund has also entered into a Service and Shareholder Administration Plan with respect to its Advisory Class shares pursuant to which its Advisory Class shares pays the Distributor a monthly or quarterly fee at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of such class of shares, to compensate certain financial intermediaries who provide administrative services, personal and account maintenance services to shareholders.
The Fund has also entered into a Shareholder Service Plan and a Distribution Plan with respect to its Participant Class shares. Pursuant to the Shareholder Service Plan, the Participant Class shares will pay the Distributor a monthly or quarterly fee at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of such class of shares, to compensate certain financial intermediaries who provide administrative services, personal and account maintenance services. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, the Participant Class shares will pay the Distributor a monthly or quarterly fee at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of such class of shares (prior to February 6, 2006, the annual rate was 0.15%), to compensate for any activities or expenses primarily intended to result in the sale of such class of shares.
The Fund has also entered into a Shareholder Service Plan with respect to its Cash Management Class shares to pay the Distributor to compensate Service Organizations who provide administrative services to shareholders. Pursuant to the Shareholder Service Plan, the Cash Management Class shares will pay the Distributor a monthly or quarterly service fee at an annual rate of 0.05% of the average daily net assets of such class of shares, to compensate Service Organizations for staffing and maintaining call centers and answering inquiries and addressing issues related to the Cash Management Class shares.
The Fund has also entered into a Distribution Plan with respect to its Cash Management Class shares pursuant to which its Cash Management Class shares pays the Distributor a monthly or quarterly fee at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of such class of shares (prior to April 25, 2006, the annual rate was 0.05%), to compensate certain financial intermediaries who provide any activities or expenses primarily intended to result in the sale of such class of shares.
E. Custodian Fees: JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (the “Custodian”) serves as Custodian for the Fund in accordance with a custodian agreement. The Custodian holds cash, securities, and other assets of the Fund as required by the 1940 Act.
The Fund has entered into an arrangement with its Custodian whereby credits realized on uninvested cash balances were used to offset a portion of each applicable Portfolio’s expenses. These custodian credits are shown as “Expense Offset” on the Statements of Operations.

F. Federal Income Taxes: It is each Portfolio’s intention to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable and tax-exempt income. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes is required in the financial statements. The tax character of distributions paid may differ from the character of distributions shown on the Statements of Changes in Net Assets due to short-term capital gains being treated as ordinary income for tax purposes. The tax character of distributions paid during fiscal 2006 and 2005 were as follows:

* Distributions are tax-exempt.
The amount and character of income and gains to be distributed are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The book/tax differences are either considered temporary or permanent in nature.
Temporary differences are primarily due to differing book and tax treatments in the timing of the recognition of distribution payable.
Permanent differences are generally due to distribution reclass. These resulted in the following reclassifications among the Portfolios’ components of net assets at October 31, 2006:

G. Contractual Obligations: The Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown. However, the Fund has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and expects the risk of loss to be remote.
H. Other: A portion of the securities of the Tax-Exempt Portfolio are insured by certain companies specializing in the insurance of municipal debt obligations. At October 31, 2006, approximately 22.7% of the net assets of the Tax-Exempt Portfolio are covered by such insurance. The insurers and their obligations are as follows:

2006 Annual Report
October 31, 2006
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees of Morgan Stanley Institutional Liquidity Funds
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of Money Market Portfolio, Prime Portfolio, Government Portfolio, Treasury Portfolio and Tax-Exempt Portfolio (the “Portfolios”) (the five active portfolios constituting Morgan Stanley Institutional Liquidity Funds), including the portfolios of investments, as of October 31, 2006, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2006, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the portfolios constituting Morgan Stanley Institutional Liquidity Funds at October 31, 2006, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

APPENDIX A
AUDIT COMMITTEE
AUDIT AND NON-AUDIT SERVICES
PRE-APPROVAL POLICY AND PROCEDURES
OF THE
MORGAN STANLEY RETAIL AND INSTITUTIONAL FUNDS
AS ADOPTED AND AMENDED JULY 23, 2004,(1)
1. Statement of Principles
The Audit Committee of the Board is required to review and, in its sole discretion, pre-approve all Covered Services to be provided by the Independent Auditors to the Fund and Covered Entities in order to assure that services performed by the Independent Auditors do not impair the auditor’s independence from the Fund.
The SEC has issued rules specifying the types of services that an independent auditor may not provide to its audit client, as well as the audit committee’s administration of the engagement of the independent auditor. The SEC’s rules establish two different approaches to pre-approving services, which the SEC considers to be equally valid. Proposed services either: may be pre-approved without consideration of specific case-by-case services by the Audit Committee (“general pre-approval”); or require the specific pre-approval of the Audit Committee or its delegate (“specific pre-approval”). The Audit Committee believes that the combination of these two approaches in this Policy will result in an effective and efficient procedure to pre-approve services performed by the Independent Auditors. As set forth in this Policy, unless a type of service has received general pre-approval, it will require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee (or by any member of the Audit Committee to which pre-approval authority has been delegated) if it is to be provided by the Independent Auditors. Any proposed services exceeding pre-approved cost levels or budgeted amounts will also require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee.
(1) This Audit Committee Audit and Non-Audit Services Pre-Approval Policy and Procedures (the “Policy”), adopted as of the date above, supersedes and replaces all prior versions that may have been adopted from time to time.
The appendices to this Policy describe the Audit, Audit-related, Tax and All Other services that have the general pre-approval of the Audit Committee. The term of any general pre-approval is 12 months from the date of pre-approval, unless the Audit Committee considers and provides a different period and states otherwise. The Audit Committee will annually review and pre-approve the services that may be provided by the Independent Auditors without obtaining specific pre-approval from the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee will add to or subtract from the list of general pre-approved services from time to time, based on subsequent determinations.
The purpose of this Policy is to set forth the policy and procedures by which the Audit Committee intends to fulfill its responsibilities. It does not delegate the Audit Committee’s responsibilities to pre-approve services performed by the Independent Auditors to management.
The Fund’s Independent Auditors have reviewed this Policy and believes that implementation of the Policy will not adversely affect the Independent Auditors’ independence.
2. Delegation
As provided in the Act and the SEC’s rules, the Audit Committee may delegate either type of pre-approval authority to one or more of its members. The member to whom such authority is delegated must report, for informational purposes only, any pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.
3. Audit Services
The annual Audit services engagement terms and fees are subject to the specific pre-approval of the Audit Committee. Audit services include the annual financial statement audit and other procedures required to be performed by the Independent Auditors to be able to form an opinion on the Fund’s financial statements. These other procedures include information systems and procedural reviews and testing performed in order to understand and place reliance on the systems of internal control, and consultations relating to the audit. The Audit Committee will approve, if necessary, any changes in terms, conditions and fees resulting from changes in audit scope, Fund structure or other items.
In addition to the annual Audit services engagement approved by the Audit Committee, the Audit Committee may grant general pre-approval to other Audit services, which are those services that only the Independent Auditors reasonably can provide. Other Audit services may include statutory audits and services associated with SEC registration statements (on Forms N-1A, N-2, N-3, N-4, etc.), periodic reports and other documents filed with the SEC or other documents issued in connection with securities offerings.
The Audit Committee has pre-approved the Audit services in Appendix B.1. All other Audit services not listed in Appendix B.1 must be specifically pre-approved by the Audit Committee (or by any member of the Audit Committee to which pre-approval has been delegated).
4. Audit-related Services
Audit-related services are assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of the Fund’s financial statements and, to the extent they are Covered Services, the Covered Entities or that are traditionally performed by the Independent Auditors. Because the Audit Committee believes that the provision of Audit-related services does not impair the independence of the auditor and is consistent with the SEC’s rules on auditor independence, the Audit Committee may grant general pre-approval to Audit-related services. Audit-related services include, among others, accounting consultations related to accounting, financial reporting or disclosure matters not classified as “Audit services”; assistance with understanding and implementing new accounting and financial reporting guidance from rulemaking authorities; agreed-upon or expanded audit procedures related to accounting and/or billing records required to respond to or comply with financial, accounting or regulatory reporting matters; and assistance with internal control reporting requirements under Forms N-SAR and/or N-CSR.
The Audit Committee has pre-approved the Audit-related services in Appendix B.2. All other Audit-related services not listed in Appendix B.2 must be specifically pre-approved by the Audit Committee (or by any member of the Audit Committee to which pre-approval has been delegated).
5. Tax Services
The Audit Committee believes that the Independent Auditors can provide Tax services to the Fund and, to the extent they are Covered Services, the Covered Entities, such as tax compliance, tax planning and tax advice without impairing the auditor’s independence, and the SEC has stated that the Independent Auditors may provide such services.
Pursuant to the preceding paragraph, the Audit Committee has pre-approved the Tax Services in Appendix B.3. All Tax services in Appendix B.3 must be specifically pre-approved by the Audit Committee (or by any member of the Audit Committee to which pre-approval has been delegated).
6. All Other Services
The Audit Committee believes, based on the SEC’s rules prohibiting the Independent Auditors from providing specific non-audit services, that other types of non-audit services are permitted. Accordingly, the Audit Committee believes it may grant general pre-approval to those permissible non-audit services classified as All Other services that it believes are routine and recurring services, would not impair the independence of the auditor and are consistent with the SEC’s rules on auditor independence.
The Audit Committee has pre-approved the All Other services in Appendix B.4. Permissible All Other services not listed in Appendix B.4 must be specifically pre-approved by the Audit Committee (or by any member of the Audit Committee to which pre-approval has been delegated).
7. Pre-Approval Fee Levels or Budgeted Amounts
Pre-approval fee levels or budgeted amounts for all services to be provided by the Independent Auditors will be established annually by the Audit Committee. Any
proposed services exceeding these levels or amounts will require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee is mindful of the overall relationship of fees for audit and non-audit services in determining whether to pre-approve any such services.
8. Procedures
All requests or applications for services to be provided by the Independent Auditors that do not require specific approval by the Audit Committee will be submitted to the Fund’s Chief Financial Officer and must include a detailed description of the services to be rendered. The Fund’s Chief Financial Officer will determine whether such services are included within the list of services that have received the general pre-approval of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee will be informed on a timely basis of any such services rendered by the Independent Auditors. Requests or applications to provide services that require specific approval by the Audit Committee will be submitted to the Audit Committee by both the Independent Auditors and the Fund’s Chief Financial Officer, and must include a joint statement as to whether, in their view, the request or application is consistent with the SEC’s rules on auditor independence.
The Audit Committee has designated the Fund’s Chief Financial Officer to monitor the performance of all services provided by the Independent Auditors and to determine whether such services are in compliance with this Policy. The Fund’s Chief Financial Officer will report to the Audit Committee on a periodic basis on the results of its monitoring. Both the Fund’s Chief Financial Officer and management will immediately report to the chairman of the Audit Committee any breach of this Policy that comes to the attention of the Fund’s Chief Financial Officer or any member of management.
9. Additional Requirements
The Audit Committee has determined to take additional measures on an annual basis to meet its responsibility to oversee the work of the Independent Auditors and to assure the auditor’s independence from the Fund, such as reviewing a formal written statement from the Independent Auditors delineating all relationships between the Independent Auditors and the Fund, consistent with Independence Standards Board No. 1, and discussing with the Independent Auditors its methods and procedures for ensuring independence.
10. Covered Entities
Covered Entities include the Fund’s investment adviser(s) and any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Fund’s investment adviser(s) that provides ongoing services to the Fund(s). Beginning with non-audit service contracts entered into on or after May 6, 2003, the Fund’s audit committee must pre-approve non-audit services provided not only to the Fund but also to the Covered Entities if the engagements relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Fund.
