The Fund's investments in emerging markets can be subject to social, economic, regulatory, and political uncertainties and can be extremely volatile.
2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
Funds may invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies generally available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by the investment adviser and its affiliates. The Schedule of Investments lists any Fidelity Central Funds held as an investment as of period end, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. An investing fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
Based on its investment objective, each Fidelity Central Fund may invest or participate in various investment vehicles or strategies that are similar to those of the investing fund. These strategies are consistent with the investment objectives of the investing fund and may involve certain economic risks which may cause a decline in value of each of the Fidelity Central Funds and thus a decline in the value of the investing fund.
Fidelity Central Fund | Investment Manager | Investment Objective | Investment Practices | Expense Ratio A |
Fidelity Money Market Central Funds | Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (FMR) | Each fund seeks to obtain a high level of current income consistent with the preservation of capital and liquidity. | Short-term Investments | Less than .005% |
A Expenses expressed as a percentage of average net assets and are as of each underlying Central Fund's most recent annual or semi-annual shareholder report.
A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the Securities and Exchange Commission website at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds which contain the significant accounting policies (including investment valuation policies) of those funds, and are not covered by the Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, are available on the Securities and Exchange Commission website or upon request.
3. Significant Accounting Policies.
The Fund is an investment company and applies the accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 Financial Services - Investment Companies . The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Subsequent events, if any, through the date that the financial statements were issued have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The Fund's Schedule of Investments lists any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) but does not include the underlying holdings of these funds. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:
Investment Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Board of Directors (the Board) has designated the Fund's investment adviser as the valuation designee responsible for the fair valuation function and performing fair value determinations as needed. The investment adviser has established a Fair Value Committee (the Committee) to carry out the day-to-day fair valuation responsibilities and has adopted policies and procedures to govern the fair valuation process and the activities of the Committee. In accordance with these fair valuation policies and procedures, which have been approved by the Board, the Fund attempts to obtain prices from one or more third party pricing services or brokers to value its investments. When current market prices, quotations or currency exchange rates are not readily available or reliable, investments will be fair valued in good faith by the Committee, in accordance with the policies and procedures. Factors used in determining fair value vary by investment type and may include market or investment specific events, transaction data, estimated cash flows, and market observations of comparable investments. The frequency that the fair valuation procedures are used cannot be predicted and they may be utilized to a significant extent. The Committee manages the Fund's fair valuation practices and maintains the fair valuation policies and procedures. The Fund's investment adviser reports to the Board information regarding the fair valuation process and related material matters.
The Fund categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value its investments into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three levels as shown below:
Level 1 - unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, etc.)
Level 3 - unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions based on the best information available)
Valuation techniques used to value the Fund's investments by major category are as follows:
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by a third party pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price or may be valued using the last available price and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For foreign equity securities, when market or security specific events arise, comparisons to the valuation of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), futures contracts, ETFs and certain indexes as well as quoted prices for similar securities may be used and would be categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For equity securities, including restricted securities, where observable inputs are limited, assumptions about market activity and risk are used and these securities may be categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy.
Debt securities, including restricted securities, are valued based on evaluated prices received from third party pricing services or from brokers who make markets in such securities. U.S. government and government agency obligations are valued by pricing services who utilize matrix pricing which considers yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type or by broker-supplied prices. When independent prices are unavailable or unreliable, debt securities may be valued utilizing pricing methodologies which consider similar factors that would be used by third party pricing services. Debt securities are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy but may be Level 3 depending on the circumstances.
Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value (NAV) each business day and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. The aggregate value of investments by input level as of March 31, 2023 is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments.
Foreign Currency. Certain Funds may use foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Gains and losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received, and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost and include proceeds received from litigation. Commissions paid to certain brokers with whom the investment adviser, or its affiliates, places trades on behalf of a fund include an amount in addition to trade execution, which may be rebated back to a fund. Any such rebates are included in net realized gain (loss) on investments in the Statement of Operations. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Income and capital gain distributions from Fidelity Central Funds, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is accrued as earned and includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities as applicable. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain. Funds may file withholding tax reclaims in certain jurisdictions to recover a portion of amounts previously withheld. Any withholding tax reclaims income is included in the Statement of Operations in foreign taxes withheld. Any receivables for withholding tax reclaims are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities in dividends receivable.
Expenses. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that fund. Expenses attributable to more than one fund are allocated among the respective funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods. Expenses included in the accompanying financial statements reflect the expenses of that fund and do not include any expenses associated with any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds. Although not included in a fund's expenses, a fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses through the net asset value of each underlying mutual fund or exchange-traded fund. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, including distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains. As a result, no provision for U.S. Federal income taxes is required. The Fund files a U.S. federal tax return, in addition to state and local tax returns as required. The Fund's federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction. Foreign taxes are provided for based on the Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests. The Fund is subject to a tax imposed on capital gains by certain countries in which it invests. An estimated deferred tax liability for net unrealized appreciation on the applicable securities is included in Other payables and accrued expenses on the Statement of Assets & Liabilities.
Distributions are declared and recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP.
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Capital accounts are not adjusted for temporary book-tax differences which will reverse in a subsequent period.
Book-tax differences are primarily due to futures contracts, foreign currency transactions, certain foreign taxes, passive foreign investment companies (PFIC) and losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.
As of period end, the cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in securities, and derivatives if applicable, for federal income tax purposes were as follows:
Gross unrealized appreciation | $372,656,474 |
Gross unrealized depreciation | (320,245,122) |
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) | $52,411,352 |
Tax cost | $2,284,432,853 |
The Fund elected to defer to its next fiscal year approximately $58,826,413 of capital losses recognized during the period November 1, 2021 to September 30, 2022.
Restricted Securities (including Private Placements). Funds may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. Information regarding restricted securities held at period end is included at the end of the Schedule of Investments, if applicable.
4. Derivative Instruments.
Risk Exposures and the Use of Derivative Instruments. The Fund's investment objectives allow for various types of derivative instruments, including futures contracts. Derivatives are investments whose value is primarily derived from underlying assets, indices or reference rates and may be transacted on an exchange or over-the-counter (OTC). Derivatives may involve a future commitment to buy or sell a specified asset based on specified terms, to exchange future cash flows at periodic intervals based on a notional principal amount, or for one party to make one or more payments upon the occurrence of specified events in exchange for periodic payments from the other party.
Derivatives were used to increase returns and to manage exposure to certain risks as defined below. The success of any strategy involving derivatives depends on analysis of numerous economic factors, and if the strategies for investment do not work as intended, the objectives may not be achieved.
Derivatives were used to increase or decrease exposure to the following risk(s):
| |
Equity Risk | Equity risk relates to the fluctuations in the value of financial instruments as a result of changes in market prices (other than those arising from interest rate risk or foreign exchange risk), whether caused by factors specific to an individual investment, its issuer, or all factors affecting all instruments traded in a market or market segment. |
Funds are also exposed to additional risks from investing in derivatives, such as liquidity risk and counterparty credit risk. Liquidity risk is the risk that a fund will be unable to close out the derivative in the open market in a timely manner. Counterparty credit risk is the risk that the counterparty will not be able to fulfill its obligation to a fund. Counterparty credit risk related to exchange-traded contracts may be mitigated by the protection provided by the exchange on which they trade.
Investing in derivatives may involve greater risks than investing in the underlying assets directly and, to varying degrees, may involve risk of loss in excess of any initial investment and collateral received and amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, there may be the risk that the change in value of the derivative contract does not correspond to the change in value of the underlying instrument.
Futures Contracts. A futures contract is an agreement between two parties to buy or sell a specified underlying instrument for a fixed price at a specified future date. Futures contracts were used to manage exposure to the stock market.
Upon entering into a futures contract, a fund is required to deposit either cash or securities (initial margin) with a clearing broker in an amount equal to a certain percentage of the face value of the contract. Futures contracts are marked-to-market daily and subsequent daily payments are made or received by a fund depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the futures contracts and are recorded as unrealized appreciation or (depreciation). This receivable and/or payable, if any, is included in daily variation margin on futures contracts in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Realized gain or (loss) is recorded upon the expiration or closing of a futures contract. The net realized gain (loss) and change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on futures contracts during the period is presented in the Statement of Operations.
Any open futures contracts at period end are presented in the Schedule of Investments under the caption "Futures Contracts". The notional amount at value reflects each contract's exposure to the underlying instrument or index at period end, and is representative of volume of activity during the period unless an average notional amount is presented. Any securities deposited to meet initial margin requirements are identified in the Schedule of Investments. Any cash deposited to meet initial margin requirements is presented as segregated cash with brokers for derivative instruments in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
5. Purchases and Sales of Investments.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities, U.S. government securities and in-kind transactions, as applicable, are noted in the table below.
| Purchases ($) | Sales ($) |
Fidelity Emerging Markets Equity Central Fund | 691,544,411 | 454,321,148 |
6. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee and Expense Contract. Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (the investment adviser) provides the Fund with investment management services. The Fund does not pay any fees for these services. Pursuant to the Fund's management contract, the investment adviser receives a monthly management fee that represents a portion of the management fees it receives from the Investing Funds. In addition, under an expense contract, the investment adviser also pays all other expenses of the Fund, excluding custody fees, the compensation of the independent Directors, and certain miscellaneous expenses such as proxy and shareholder meeting expenses.
Brokerage Commissions. A portion of portfolio transactions were placed with brokerage firms which are affiliates of the investment adviser. Brokerage commissions are included in net realized gain (loss) and change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in the Statement of Operations. The commissions paid to these affiliated firms were as follows:
| Amount |
Fidelity Emerging Markets Equity Central Fund | $5,411 |
Interfund Lending Program. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), the Fund, along with other registered investment companies having management contracts with FMR, or other affiliated entities of FMR, may participate in an interfund lending program. This program provides an alternative credit facility allowing the Fund to borrow from, or lend money to, other participating affiliated funds. At period end, there were no interfund loans outstanding. Activity in this program during the period for which loans were outstanding was as follows:
| Borrower or Lender | Average Loan Balance | Weighted Average Interest Rate | Interest Expense |
Fidelity Emerging Markets Equity Central Fund | Borrower | $ 25,746,500 | 4.07% | $ 5,814 |
Interfund Trades. Funds may purchase from or sell securities to other Fidelity Funds under procedures adopted by the Board. The procedures have been designed to ensure these interfund trades are executed in accordance with Rule 17a-7 of the 1940 Act. Any interfund trades are included within the respective purchases and sales amounts shown in the Purchases and Sales of Investments note. Interfund trades during the period are noted in the table below.
| Purchases ($) | Sales ($) | Realized Gain (Loss) ($) |
Fidelity Emerging Markets Equity Central Fund | 6,415,515 | 11,197,541 | (1,816,020) |
7. Security Lending.
Funds lend portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. Lending agents are used, including National Financial Services (NFS), an affiliate of the investment adviser. Pursuant to a securities lending agreement, NFS will receive a fee, which is capped at 9.9% of a fund's daily lending revenue, for its services as lending agent. A fund may lend securities to certain qualified borrowers, including NFS. On the settlement date of the loan, a fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of a fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to a fund on the next business day. A fund or borrower may terminate the loan at any time, and if the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund may apply collateral received from the borrower against the obligation. A fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned. Any cash collateral received is invested in the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. Any loaned securities are identified as such in the Schedule of Investments, and the value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end, as applicable, are presented in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Security lending income represents the income earned on investing cash collateral, less rebates paid to borrowers and any lending agent fees associated with the loan, plus any premium payments received for lending certain types of securities. Security lending income is presented in the Statement of Operations as a component of income from Fidelity Central Funds. Affiliated security lending activity, if any, was as follows:
| Total Security Lending Fees Paid to NFS | Security Lending Income From Securities Loaned to NFS | Value of Securities Loaned to NFS at Period End |
Fidelity Emerging Markets Equity Central Fund | $ 17,174 | $ 210 | $- |
8. Other.
A fund's organizational documents provide former and current directors and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the fund. In the normal course of business, a fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. A fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against a fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
At the end of the period, mutual funds managed by the investment adviser or its affiliates were the owners of record of all of the outstanding shares of the Fund.
9. Risk and Uncertainties.
Many factors affect a fund's performance. Developments that disrupt global economies and financial markets, such as pandemics, epidemics, outbreaks of infectious diseases, war, terrorism, and environmental disasters, may significantly affect a fund's investment performance. The effects of these developments to a fund will be impacted by the types of securities in which a fund invests, the financial condition, industry, economic sector, and geographic location of an issuer, and a fund's level of investment in the securities of that issuer. Significant concentrations in security types, issuers, industries, sectors, and geographic locations may magnify the factors that affect a fund's performance.
As a shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, which may include sales charges (loads) on purchase payments or redemption proceeds, as applicable and (2) ongoing costs, which generally include management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (October 1, 2022 to March 31, 2023). |
Actual Expenses
The first line of the accompanying table 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 $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class/Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If any fund is a shareholder of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) (the Underlying Funds), such fund indirectly bears its proportional share of the expenses of the Underlying Funds in addition to the direct expenses incurred presented in the table. These fees and expenses are not included in the annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the accompanying table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the 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 Fund 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. If any fund is a shareholder of any Underlying Funds, such fund indirectly bears its proportional share of the expenses of the Underlying Funds in addition to the direct expenses as presented in the table. These fees and expenses are not included in the annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
| | | | Annualized Expense Ratio- A | | Beginning Account Value October 1, 2022 | | Ending Account Value March 31, 2023 | | Expenses Paid During Period- C October 1, 2022 to March 31, 2023 |
| | | | | | | | | | |
Fidelity® Emerging Markets Equity Central Fund | | | | .0199% | | | | | | |
Actual | | | | | | $ 1,000 | | $ 1,160.50 | | $ .11 |
Hypothetical- B | | | | | | $ 1,000 | | $ 1,024.83 | | $ .10 |
|
A Annualized expense ratio reflects expenses net of applicable fee waivers.
B 5% return per year before expenses
C Expenses are equal to the annualized expense ratio, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 182/ 365 (to reflect the one-half year period). The fees and expenses of any Underlying Funds are not included in each annualized expense ratio.
The Securities and Exchange Commission adopted Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the Liquidity Rule) to promote effective liquidity risk management throughout the open-end investment company industry, thereby reducing the risk that funds will be unable to meet their redemption obligations and mitigating dilution of the interests of fund shareholders.
The Fund has adopted and implemented a liquidity risk management program (the Program) reasonably designed to assess and manage the Fund's liquidity risk and to comply with the requirements of the Liquidity Rule. The Fund's Board of Trustees (the Board) has designated the Fund's investment adviser as administrator of the Program. The Fidelity advisers have established a Liquidity Risk Management Committee (the LRM Committee) to manage the Program for each of the Fidelity Funds. The LRM Committee monitors the adequacy and effectiveness of implementation of the Program and on a periodic basis assesses each Fund's liquidity risk based on a variety of factors including (1) the Fund's investment strategy, (2) portfolio liquidity and cash flow projections during normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed conditions, (3) shareholder redemptions, (4) borrowings and other funding sources and (5) certain factors specific to ETFs including the effect of the Fund's prices and spreads, market participants, and basket compositions on the overall liquidity of the Fund's portfolio, as applicable.
In accordance with the Program, each of the Fund's portfolio investments is classified into one of four defined liquidity categories based on a determination of a reasonable expectation for how long it would take to convert the investment to cash (or sell or dispose of the investment) without significantly changing its market value.
- Highly liquid investments - cash or convertible to cash within three business days or less
- Moderately liquid investments - convertible to cash in three to seven calendar days
- Less liquid investments - can be sold or disposed of, but not settled, within seven calendar days
- Illiquid investments - cannot be sold or disposed of within seven calendar days
Liquidity classification determinations take into account a variety of factors including various market, trading and investment-specific considerations, as well as market depth, and generally utilize analysis from a third-party liquidity metrics service.
The Liquidity Rule places a 15% limit on a fund's illiquid investments and requires funds that do not primarily hold assets that are highly liquid investments to determine and maintain a minimum percentage of the fund's net assets to be invested in highly liquid investments (highly liquid investment minimum or HLIM). The Program includes provisions reasonably designed to comply with the 15% limit on illiquid investments and for determining, periodically reviewing and complying with the HLIM requirement as applicable.
At a recent meeting of the Fund's Board of Trustees, the LRM Committee provided a written report to the Board pertaining to the operation, adequacy, and effectiveness of the Program for the period December 1, 2021 through November 30, 2022. The report concluded that the Program is operating effectively and is reasonably designed to assess and manage the Fund's liquidity risk.

1. Organization.
Fidelity Real Estate Equity Central Fund (the Fund) is a non-diversified fund of Fidelity Central Investment Portfolios LLC (the LLC) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. Shares of the Fund are only offered to other investment companies and accounts managed by Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (FMR), or its affiliates (the Investing Funds). The LLC is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Delaware Limited Liability Company.
2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
Funds may invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies generally available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by the investment adviser and its affiliates. The Schedule of Investments lists any Fidelity Central Funds held as an investment as of period end, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. An investing fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
Based on its investment objective, each Fidelity Central Fund may invest or participate in various investment vehicles or strategies that are similar to those of the investing fund. These strategies are consistent with the investment objectives of the investing fund and may involve certain economic risks which may cause a decline in value of each of the Fidelity Central Funds and thus a decline in the value of the investing fund.
Fidelity Central Fund | Investment Manager | Investment Objective | Investment Practices | Expense Ratio A |
| | | | |
Fidelity Money Market Central Funds | Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (FMR) | Each fund seeks to obtain a high level of current income consistent with the preservation of capital and liquidity. | Short-term Investments | Less than .005% |
A Expenses expressed as a percentage of average net assets and are as of each underlying Central Fund's most recent annual or semi-annual shareholder report.
A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the Securities and Exchange Commission website at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds which contain the significant accounting policies (including investment valuation policies) of those funds, and are not covered by the Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, are available on the Securities and Exchange Commission website or upon request.
3. Significant Accounting Policies.
The Fund is an investment company and applies the accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 Financial Services - Investment Companies . The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Subsequent events, if any, through the date that the financial statements were issued have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The Fund's Schedule of Investments lists any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) but does not include the underlying holdings of these funds. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:
Investment Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Board of Directors (the Board) has designated the Fund's investment adviser as the valuation designee responsible for the fair valuation function and performing fair value determinations as needed. The investment adviser has established a Fair Value Committee (the Committee) to carry out the day-to-day fair valuation responsibilities and has adopted policies and procedures to govern the fair valuation process and the activities of the Committee. In accordance with these fair valuation policies and procedures, which have been approved by the Board, the Fund attempts to obtain prices from one or more third party pricing services or brokers to value its investments. When current market prices, quotations or currency exchange rates are not readily available or reliable, investments will be fair valued in good faith by the Committee, in accordance with the policies and procedures. Factors used in determining fair value vary by investment type and may include market or investment specific events, transaction data, estimated cash flows, and market observations of comparable investments. The frequency that the fair valuation procedures are used cannot be predicted and they may be utilized to a significant extent. The Committee manages the Fund's fair valuation practices and maintains the fair valuation policies and procedures. The Fund's investment adviser reports to the Board information regarding the fair valuation process and related material matters.
The Fund categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value its investments into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three levels as shown below:
Level 1 - unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, etc.)
Level 3 - unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions based on the best information available)
Valuation techniques used to value the Fund's investments by major category are as follows:
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by a third party pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price or may be valued using the last available price and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For foreign equity securities, when market or security specific events arise, comparisons to the valuation of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), futures contracts, ETFs and certain indexes as well as quoted prices for similar securities may be used and would be categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For equity securities, including restricted securities, where observable inputs are limited, assumptions about market activity and risk are used and these securities may be categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy.
Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value (NAV) each business day and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. The aggregate value of investments by input level as of March 31, 2023 is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments.
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost. Commissions paid to certain brokers with whom the investment adviser, or its affiliates, places trades on behalf of a fund include an amount in addition to trade execution, which may be rebated back to a fund. Any such rebates are included in net realized gain (loss) on investments in the Statement of Operations. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Income and capital gain distributions from Fidelity Central Funds, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Certain distributions received by the Fund represent a return of capital or capital gain. The Fund determines the components of these distributions subsequent to the ex-dividend date, based upon receipt of tax filings or other correspondence relating to the underlying investment. These distributions are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain.
Expenses. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that fund. Expenses attributable to more than one fund are allocated among the respective funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods. Expenses included in the accompanying financial statements reflect the expenses of that fund and do not include any expenses associated with any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds. Although not included in a fund's expenses, a fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses through the net asset value of each underlying mutual fund or exchange-traded fund. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, including distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains. As a result, no provision for U.S. Federal income taxes is required. The Fund files a U.S. federal tax return, in addition to state and local tax returns as required. The Fund's federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction.
Distributions are declared and recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP.
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Capital accounts are not adjusted for temporary book-tax differences which will reverse in a subsequent period.
Book-tax differences are primarily due to the short-term gain distributions from the underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs), capital loss carryforwards and losses deferred due to wash sales.
As of period end, the cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in securities, and derivatives if applicable, for federal income tax purposes were as follows:
Gross unrealized appreciation | $125,688,570 |
Gross unrealized depreciation | (71,868,507) |
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) | $53,820,063 |
Tax cost | $905,175,351 |
Capital loss carryforwards are only available to offset future capital gains of the Fund to the extent provided by regulations and may be limited. The capital loss carryforward information presented below, including any applicable limitation, is estimated as of prior fiscal period end and is subject to adjustment.
4. Purchases and Sales of Investments.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities and in-kind transactions, as applicable, are noted in the table below.
| Purchases ($) | Sales ($) |
Fidelity Real Estate Equity Central Fund | 184,622,182 | 274,017,842 |
5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee and Expense Contract. Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (the investment adviser) provides the Fund with investment management services. The Fund does not pay any fees for these services. Pursuant to the Fund's management contract, the investment adviser receives a monthly management fee that represents a portion of the management fees it receives from the Investing Funds. In addition, under an expense contract, the investment adviser also pays all other expenses of the Fund, excluding custody fees, the compensation of the independent Directors, and certain miscellaneous expenses such as proxy and shareholder meeting expenses.
Brokerage Commissions. A portion of portfolio transactions were placed with brokerage firms which are affiliates of the investment adviser. Brokerage commissions are included in net realized gain (loss) and change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in the Statement of Operations. The commissions paid to these affiliated firms were as follows:
| Amount |
Fidelity Real Estate Equity Central Fund | $4,451 |
Interfund Lending Program. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), the Fund, along with other registered investment companies having management contracts with FMR, or other affiliated entities of FMR, may participate in an interfund lending program. This program provides an alternative credit facility allowing the Fund to borrow from, or lend money to, other participating affiliated funds. At period end, there were no interfund loans outstanding. Activity in this program during the period for which loans were outstanding was as follows:
| Borrower or Lender | Average Loan Balance | Weighted Average Interest Rate | Interest Expense |
Fidelity Real Estate Equity Central Fund | Borrower | $ 21,526,400 | 4.57% | $13,648 |
Interfund Trades. Funds may purchase from or sell securities to other Fidelity Funds under procedures adopted by the Board. The procedures have been designed to ensure these interfund trades are executed in accordance with Rule 17a-7 of the 1940 Act. Any interfund trades are included within the respective purchases and sales amounts shown in the Purchases and Sales of Investments note. Interfund trades during the period are noted in the table below.
| Purchases ($) | Sales ($) | Realized Gain (Loss) ($) |
Fidelity Real Estate Equity Central Fund | 16,394,360 | 15,150,028 | (2,904,050) |
6. Security Lending.
Funds lend portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. Lending agents are used, including National Financial Services (NFS), an affiliate of the investment adviser. Pursuant to a securities lending agreement, NFS will receive a fee, which is capped at 9.9% of a fund's daily lending revenue, for its services as lending agent. A fund may lend securities to certain qualified borrowers, including NFS. On the settlement date of the loan, a fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of a fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to a fund on the next business day. A fund or borrower may terminate the loan at any time, and if the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund may apply collateral received from the borrower against the obligation. A fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned. Any cash collateral received is invested in the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. Any loaned securities are identified as such in the Schedule of Investments, and the value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end, as applicable, are presented in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Security lending income represents the income earned on investing cash collateral, less rebates paid to borrowers and any lending agent fees associated with the loan, plus any premium payments received for lending certain types of securities. Security lending income is presented in the Statement of Operations as a component of income from Fidelity Central Funds. Affiliated security lending activity, if any, was as follows:

8. Other.
A fund's organizational documents provide former and current directors and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the fund. In the normal course of business, a fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. A fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against a fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
At the end of the period, mutual funds managed by the investment adviser or its affiliates were the owners of record of all of the outstanding shares of the Fund.
9. Risk and Uncertainties.
Many factors affect a fund's performance. Developments that disrupt global economies and financial markets, such as pandemics, epidemics, outbreaks of infectious diseases, war, terrorism, and environmental disasters, may significantly affect a fund's investment performance. The effects of these developments to a fund will be impacted by the types of securities in which a fund invests, the financial condition, industry, economic sector, and geographic location of an issuer, and a fund's level of investment in the securities of that issuer. Significant concentrations in security types, issuers, industries, sectors, and geographic locations may magnify the factors that affect a fund's performance.
As a shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, which may include sales charges (loads) on purchase payments or redemption proceeds, as applicable and (2) ongoing costs, which generally include management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (October 1, 2022 to March 31, 2023). |
Actual Expenses
The first line of the accompanying table 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 $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class/Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If any fund is a shareholder of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) (the Underlying Funds), such fund indirectly bears its proportional share of the expenses of the Underlying Funds in addition to the direct expenses incurred presented in the table. These fees and expenses are not included in the annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the accompanying table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the 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 Fund 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. If any fund is a shareholder of any Underlying Funds, such fund indirectly bears its proportional share of the expenses of the Underlying Funds in addition to the direct expenses as presented in the table. These fees and expenses are not included in the annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
| | | | Annualized Expense Ratio- A | | Beginning Account Value October 1, 2022 | | Ending Account Value March 31, 2023 | | Expenses Paid During Period- C October 1, 2022 to March 31, 2023 |
| | | | | | | | | | |
Fidelity® Real Estate Equity Central Fund | | | | 0.0045% | | | | | | |
Actual | | | | | | $ 1,000 | | $ 1,098.70 | | $ .02 |
Hypothetical- B | | | | | | $ 1,000 | | $ 1,024.91 | | $ .02 |
|
A Annualized expense ratio reflects expenses net of applicable fee waivers.
B 5% return per year before expenses
C Expenses are equal to the annualized expense ratio, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 182/ 365 (to reflect the one-half year period). The fees and expenses of any Underlying Funds are not included in each annualized expense ratio.
The Securities and Exchange Commission adopted Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the Liquidity Rule) to promote effective liquidity risk management throughout the open-end investment company industry, thereby reducing the risk that funds will be unable to meet their redemption obligations and mitigating dilution of the interests of fund shareholders.
The Fund has adopted and implemented a liquidity risk management program (the Program) reasonably designed to assess and manage the Fund's liquidity risk and to comply with the requirements of the Liquidity Rule. The Fund's Board of Trustees (the Board) has designated the Fund's investment adviser as administrator of the Program. The Fidelity advisers have established a Liquidity Risk Management Committee (the LRM Committee) to manage the Program for each of the Fidelity Funds. The LRM Committee monitors the adequacy and effectiveness of implementation of the Program and on a periodic basis assesses each Fund's liquidity risk based on a variety of factors including (1) the Fund's investment strategy, (2) portfolio liquidity and cash flow projections during normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed conditions, (3) shareholder redemptions, (4) borrowings and other funding sources and (5) certain factors specific to ETFs including the effect of the Fund's prices and spreads, market participants, and basket compositions on the overall liquidity of the Fund's portfolio, as applicable.
In accordance with the Program, each of the Fund's portfolio investments is classified into one of four defined liquidity categories based on a determination of a reasonable expectation for how long it would take to convert the investment to cash (or sell or dispose of the investment) without significantly changing its market value.
- Highly liquid investments - cash or convertible to cash within three business days or less
- Moderately liquid investments - convertible to cash in three to seven calendar days
- Less liquid investments - can be sold or disposed of, but not settled, within seven calendar days
- Illiquid investments - cannot be sold or disposed of within seven calendar days
Liquidity classification determinations take into account a variety of factors including various market, trading and investment-specific considerations, as well as market depth, and generally utilize analysis from a third-party liquidity metrics service.
The Liquidity Rule places a 15% limit on a fund's illiquid investments and requires funds that do not primarily hold assets that are highly liquid investments to determine and maintain a minimum percentage of the fund's net assets to be invested in highly liquid investments (highly liquid investment minimum or HLIM). The Program includes provisions reasonably designed to comply with the 15% limit on illiquid investments and for determining, periodically reviewing and complying with the HLIM requirement as applicable.
At a recent meeting of the Fund's Board of Trustees, the LRM Committee provided a written report to the Board pertaining to the operation, adequacy, and effectiveness of the Program for the period December 1, 2021 through November 30, 2022. The report concluded that the Program is operating effectively and is reasonably designed to assess and manage the Fund's liquidity risk.

3. Significant Accounting Policies.
The Fund is an investment company and applies the accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 Financial Services - Investment Companies . The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Subsequent events, if any, through the date that the financial statements were issued have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The Fund's Schedule of Investments lists any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) but does not include the underlying holdings of these funds. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:
Investment Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Board of Directors (the Board) has designated the Fund's investment adviser as the valuation designee responsible for the fair valuation function and performing fair value determinations as needed. The investment adviser has established a Fair Value Committee (the Committee) to carry out the day-to-day fair valuation responsibilities and has adopted policies and procedures to govern the fair valuation process and the activities of the Committee. In accordance with these fair valuation policies and procedures, which have been approved by the Board, the Fund attempts to obtain prices from one or more third party pricing services or brokers to value its investments. When current market prices, quotations or currency exchange rates are not readily available or reliable, investments will be fair valued in good faith by the Committee, in accordance with the policies and procedures. Factors used in determining fair value vary by investment type and may include market or investment specific events, transaction data, estimated cash flows, and market observations of comparable investments. The frequency that the fair valuation procedures are used cannot be predicted and they may be utilized to a significant extent. The Committee manages the Fund's fair valuation practices and maintains the fair valuation policies and procedures. The Fund's investment adviser reports to the Board information regarding the fair valuation process and related material matters.
The Fund categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value its investments into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three levels as shown below:
Level 1 - unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, etc.)
Level 3 - unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions based on the best information available)
Valuation techniques used to value the Fund's investments by major category are as follows:
Debt securities, including restricted securities, are valued based on evaluated prices received from third party pricing services or from brokers who make markets in such securities. Corporate bonds, bank loan obligations, and preferred securities are valued by pricing services who utilize matrix pricing which considers yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type or by broker-supplied prices. When independent prices are unavailable or unreliable, debt securities may be valued utilizing pricing methodologies which consider similar factors that would be used by third party services. Debt securities are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy but may be Level 3 depending on the circumstances. The Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in below investment grade securities. The value of these securities can be more volatile due to changes in the credit quality of the issuer and is sensitive to changes in economic, market and regulatory conditions.
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by a third party pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price or may be valued using the last available price and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For foreign equity securities, when market or security specific events arise, comparisons to the valuation of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), futures contracts, Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) and certain indexes as well as quoted prices for similar securities may be used and would be categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For equity securities, including restricted securities, where observable inputs are limited, assumptions about market activity and risk are used and these securities may be categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy.
Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value (NAV) each business day and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.
Fidelity Private Credit Central Fund LLC is valued using NAV as a practical expedient in accordance with the specialized accounting guidance for investment companies.
The following provides information on Level 3 securities held by the Fund that were valued at period end based on unobservable inputs. These amounts exclude valuations provided by a broker and valuations using NAV as a practical expedient.
Asset Type | Fair Value | Valuation Technique(s) | Unobservable Input | Amount or Range/Weighted Average | Impact to Valuation from an Increase in Input A |

A Represents the directional change in the fair value of the Level 3 investments that could have resulted from an increase in the corresponding input as of period end. A decrease to the unobservable input would have had the opposite effect. Significant changes in these inputs may have resulted in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement at period end.
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. The aggregate value of investments by input level as of March 31, 2023, as well as a roll forward of Level 3 investments, is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments.
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Income and capital gain distributions from Fidelity Central Funds, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Certain distributions received by the Fund represent a return of capital or capital gain. The Fund determines the components of these distributions subsequent to the ex-dividend date, based upon receipt of tax filings or other correspondence relating to the underlying investment. These distributions are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. Interest income is accrued as earned and includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities as applicable. Debt obligations may be placed on non-accrual status and related interest income may be reduced by ceasing current accruals and writing off interest receivables when the collection of all or a portion of interest has become doubtful based on consistently applied procedures. A debt obligation is removed from non-accrual status when the issuer resumes interest payments or when collectability of interest is reasonably assured. The Fund earns certain fees in connection with its floating rate loan purchasing activities. These fees are in addition to interest payments earned and may include amendment fees, consent fees and prepayment fees. These fees are recorded as Interest in the accompanying financial statements.
Expenses. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that fund. Expenses attributable to more than one fund are allocated among the respective funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods. Expenses included in the accompanying financial statements reflect the expenses of that fund and do not include any expenses associated with any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds. Although not included in a fund's expenses, a fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses through the net asset value of each underlying mutual fund or exchange-traded fund. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, including distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains. As a result, no provision for U.S. Federal income taxes is required. The Fund files a U.S. federal tax return, in addition to state and local tax returns as required. The Fund's federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction.
Distributions are declared and recorded daily and paid monthly from net investment income. Distributions from realized gains, if any, are declared and recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP.
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Capital accounts are not adjusted for temporary book-tax differences which will reverse in a subsequent period.
Book-tax differences are primarily due to partnerships, capital loss carryforwards and losses deferred due to wash sales.
As of period end, the cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in securities, and derivatives if applicable, for federal income tax purposes were as follows:
Gross unrealized appreciation | $30,110,828 |
Gross unrealized depreciation | (119,582,160) |
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) | $(89,471,322) |
Tax cost | $1,908,064,047 |
Capital loss carryforwards are only available to offset future capital gains of the Fund to the extent provided by regulations and may be limited. The capital loss carryforward information presented below, including any applicable limitation, is estimated as of prior fiscal period end and is subject to adjustment.
Short-term | $(9,566,939) |
Long-term | (71,514,489) |
Total capital loss carryforward | $(81,081,428) |
Restricted Securities (including Private Placements). Funds may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. Information regarding restricted securities held at period end is included at the end of the Schedule of Investments, if applicable.
Loans and Other Direct Debt Instruments. Direct debt instruments are interests in amounts owed to lenders by corporate or other borrowers. These instruments may be in the form of loans, trade claims or other receivables and may include standby financing commitments such as revolving credit facilities that obligate a fund to supply additional cash to the borrower on demand. Loans may be acquired through assignment, participation, or may be made directly to a borrower. Such instruments are presented in the Bank Loan Obligations section in the Schedule of Investments. Certain funds may also invest in unfunded loan commitments, which are contractual obligations for future funding. Information regarding unfunded commitments is included at the end of the Schedule of Investments, if applicable.
Commitments. A commitment is an agreement to acquire an investment at a future date (subject to conditions) in connection with a potential public or non-public offering. The amount of commitments outstanding at period end are presented in the table below. These commitments are not included in the net assets of the Fund at period end.
| Investment to be Acquired | Commitment Amount |
Fidelity Floating Rate Central Fund | Fidelity Private Credit Central Fund LLC | $8,106,011 |
LIBOR Accounting Pronouncement. In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued an Accounting Standards Update (ASU), ASU 2020-04, which provides optional, temporary relief with respect to the financial reporting of contracts subject to certain types of modifications due to the planned discontinuation of the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) and other IBOR-based reference rates. The temporary relief provided by ASU 2020-04 is effective for certain reference rate-related contract modifications that occur during the period March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2024. Management does not expect the adoption of ASU 2020-04 to have a material impact on the Fund's financial statements.
5. Purchases and Sales of Investments.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities and in-kind transactions, as applicable, are noted in the table below.
| Purchases ($) | Sales ($) |
Fidelity Floating Rate Central Fund | 251,254,164 | 929,072,823 |
6. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee and Expense Contract. Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (the investment adviser) provides the Fund with investment management services. The Fund does not pay any fees for these services. Pursuant to the Fund's management contract, the investment adviser receives a monthly management fee that represents a portion of the management fees it receives from the Investing Funds. In addition, under an expense contract, the investment adviser also pays all other expenses of the Fund, excluding custody fees, the compensation of the independent Directors, and certain miscellaneous expenses such as proxy and shareholder meeting expenses.
Interfund Trades. Funds may purchase from or sell securities to other Fidelity Funds under procedures adopted by the Board. The procedures have been designed to ensure these interfund trades are executed in accordance with Rule 17a-7 of the 1940 Act. Any interfund trades are included within the respective purchases and sales amounts shown in the Purchases and Sales of Investments note. During the period, there were no interfund trades.
7. Security Lending.
Funds lend portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. Lending agents are used, including National Financial Services (NFS), an affiliate of the investment adviser. Pursuant to a securities lending agreement, NFS will receive a fee, which is capped at 9.9% of a fund's daily lending revenue, for its services as lending agent. A fund may lend securities to certain qualified borrowers, including NFS. On the settlement date of the loan, a fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of a fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to a fund on the next business day. A fund or borrower may terminate the loan at any time, and if the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund may apply collateral received from the borrower against the obligation. A fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned. Any cash collateral received is invested in the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. Any loaned securities are identified as such in the Schedule of Investments, and the value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end, as applicable, are presented in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Security lending income represents the income earned on investing cash collateral, less rebates paid to borrowers and any lending agent fees associated with the loan, plus any premium payments received for lending certain types of securities. Security lending income is presented in the Statement of Operations as a component of income from Fidelity Central Funds. Affiliated security lending activity, if any, was as follows:
| Total Security Lending Fees Paid to NFS | Security Lending Income From Securities Loaned to NFS | Value of Securities Loaned to NFS at Period End |
Fidelity Floating Rate Central Fund | $34 | $- | $- |
8. Expense Reductions.
Through arrangements with the Fund's custodian, credits realized as a result of certain uninvested cash balances were used to reduce the Fund's expenses by $2,166.
9. Other.
A fund's organizational documents provide former and current directors and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the fund. In the normal course of business, a fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. A fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against a fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
At the end of the period, mutual funds managed by the investment adviser or its affiliates were the owners of record of all of the outstanding shares of the Fund.
10. Risk and Uncertainties.
Many factors affect a fund's performance. Developments that disrupt global economies and financial markets, such as pandemics, epidemics, outbreaks of infectious diseases, war, terrorism, and environmental disasters, may significantly affect a fund's investment performance. The effects of these developments to a fund will be impacted by the types of securities in which a fund invests, the financial condition, industry, economic sector, and geographic location of an issuer, and a fund's level of investment in the securities of that issuer. Significant concentrations in security types, issuers, industries, sectors, and geographic locations may magnify the factors that affect a fund's performance.
As a shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, which may include sales charges (loads) on purchase payments or redemption proceeds, as applicable and (2) ongoing costs, which generally include management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (October 1, 2022 to March 31, 2023). |
Actual Expenses
The first line of the accompanying table 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 $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class/Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If any fund is a shareholder of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) (the Underlying Funds), such fund indirectly bears its proportional share of the expenses of the Underlying Funds in addition to the direct expenses incurred presented in the table. These fees and expenses are not included in the annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the accompanying table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the 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 Fund 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. If any fund is a shareholder of any Underlying Funds, such fund indirectly bears its proportional share of the expenses of the Underlying Funds in addition to the direct expenses as presented in the table. These fees and expenses are not included in the annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
| | | | Annualized Expense Ratio- A | | Beginning Account Value October 1, 2022 | | Ending Account Value March 31, 2023 | | Expenses Paid During Period- C October 1, 2022 to March 31, 2023 |
| | | | | | | | | | |
Fidelity® Floating Rate Central Fund | | | | 0.0007% | | | | | | |
Actual | | | | | | $ 1,000 | | $ 1,065.50 | | $- D |
Hypothetical- B | | | | | | $ 1,000 | | $ 1,024.93 | | $- D |
|
A Annualized expense ratio reflects expenses net of applicable fee waivers.
B 5% return per year before expenses
C Expenses are equal to the annualized expense ratio, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 182/ 365 (to reflect the one-half year period). The fees and expenses of any Underlying Funds are not included in each annualized expense ratio.
D Amount represents less than $.005.
The Securities and Exchange Commission adopted Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the Liquidity Rule) to promote effective liquidity risk management throughout the open-end investment company industry, thereby reducing the risk that funds will be unable to meet their redemption obligations and mitigating dilution of the interests of fund shareholders.
The Fund has adopted and implemented a liquidity risk management program (the Program) reasonably designed to assess and manage the Fund's liquidity risk and to comply with the requirements of the Liquidity Rule. The Fund's Board of Trustees (the Board) has designated the Fund's investment adviser as administrator of the Program. The Fidelity advisers have established a Liquidity Risk Management Committee (the LRM Committee) to manage the Program for each of the Fidelity Funds. The LRM Committee monitors the adequacy and effectiveness of implementation of the Program and on a periodic basis assesses each Fund's liquidity risk based on a variety of factors including (1) the Fund's investment strategy, (2) portfolio liquidity and cash flow projections during normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed conditions, (3) shareholder redemptions, (4) borrowings and other funding sources and (5) certain factors specific to ETFs including the effect of the Fund's prices and spreads, market participants, and basket compositions on the overall liquidity of the Fund's portfolio, as applicable.
In accordance with the Program, each of the Fund's portfolio investments is classified into one of four defined liquidity categories based on a determination of a reasonable expectation for how long it would take to convert the investment to cash (or sell or dispose of the investment) without significantly changing its market value.
- Highly liquid investments - cash or convertible to cash within three business days or less
- Moderately liquid investments - convertible to cash in three to seven calendar days
- Less liquid investments - can be sold or disposed of, but not settled, within seven calendar days
- Illiquid investments - cannot be sold or disposed of within seven calendar days
Liquidity classification determinations take into account a variety of factors including various market, trading and investment-specific considerations, as well as market depth, and generally utilize analysis from a third-party liquidity metrics service.
The Liquidity Rule places a 15% limit on a fund's illiquid investments and requires funds that do not primarily hold assets that are highly liquid investments to determine and maintain a minimum percentage of the fund's net assets to be invested in highly liquid investments (highly liquid investment minimum or HLIM). The Program includes provisions reasonably designed to comply with the 15% limit on illiquid investments and for determining, periodically reviewing and complying with the HLIM requirement as applicable.
At a recent meeting of the Fund's Board of Trustees, the LRM Committee provided a written report to the Board pertaining to the operation, adequacy, and effectiveness of the Program for the period December 1, 2021 through November 30, 2022. The report concluded that the Program is operating effectively and is reasonably designed to assess and manage the Fund's liquidity risk.

1 . Organization.
Fidelity International Equity Central Fund (the Fund) is a fund of Fidelity Central Investment Portfolios LLC (the LLC) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. Shares of the Fund are only offered to other investment companies and accounts managed by Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (FMR), or its affiliates (the Investing Funds). The LLC is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Delaware Limited Liability Company.
2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
Funds may invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies generally available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by the investment adviser and its affiliates. The Schedule of Investments lists any Fidelity Central Funds held as an investment as of period end, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. An investing fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
Based on its investment objective, each Fidelity Central Fund may invest or participate in various investment vehicles or strategies that are similar to those of the investing fund. These strategies are consistent with the investment objectives of the investing fund and may involve certain economic risks which may cause a decline in value of each of the Fidelity Central Funds and thus a decline in the value of the investing fund.
Fidelity Central Fund | Investment Manager | Investment Objective | Investment Practices | Expense Ratio A |
Fidelity Money Market Central Funds | Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (FMR) | Each fund seeks to obtain a high level of current income consistent with the preservation of capital and liquidity. | Short-term Investments | Less than .005% |
A Expenses expressed as a percentage of average net assets and are as of each underlying Central Fund's most recent annual or semi-annual shareholder report.
A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the Securities and Exchange Commission website at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds which contain the significant accounting policies (including investment valuation policies) of those funds, and are not covered by the Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, are available on the Securities and Exchange Commission website or upon request.
3. Significant Accounting Policies.
The Fund is an investment company and applies the accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 Financial Services - Investment Companies . The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Subsequent events, if any, through the date that the financial statements were issued have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The Fund's Schedule of Investments lists any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) but does not include the underlying holdings of these funds. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:
Investment Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Board of Directors (the Board) has designated the Fund's investment adviser as the valuation designee responsible for the fair valuation function and performing fair value determinations as needed. The investment adviser has established a Fair Value Committee (the Committee) to carry out the day-to-day fair valuation responsibilities and has adopted policies and procedures to govern the fair valuation process and the activities of the Committee. In accordance with these fair valuation policies and procedures, which have been approved by the Board, the Fund attempts to obtain prices from one or more third party pricing services or brokers to value its investments. When current market prices, quotations or currency exchange rates are not readily available or reliable, investments will be fair valued in good faith by the Committee, in accordance with the policies and procedures. Factors used in determining fair value vary by investment type and may include market or investment specific events, transaction data, estimated cash flows, and market observations of comparable investments. The frequency that the fair valuation procedures are used cannot be predicted and they may be utilized to a significant extent. The Committee manages the Fund's fair valuation practices and maintains the fair valuation policies and procedures. The Fund's investment adviser reports to the Board information regarding the fair valuation process and related material matters.
The Fund categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value its investments into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three levels as shown below:
Level 1 - unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, etc.)
Level 3 - unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions based on the best information available)
Valuation techniques used to value the Fund's investments by major category are as follows:
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by a third party pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price or may be valued using the last available price and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For foreign equity securities, when market or security specific events arise, comparisons to the valuation of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), futures contracts, ETFs and certain indexes as well as quoted prices for similar securities may be used and would be categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For equity securities, including restricted securities, where observable inputs are limited, assumptions about market activity and risk are used and these securities may be categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy.
Debt securities, including restricted securities, are valued based on evaluated prices received from third party pricing services or from brokers who make markets in such securities. U.S. government and government agency obligations are valued by pricing services who utilize matrix pricing which considers yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type or by broker-supplied prices. When independent prices are unavailable or unreliable, debt securities may be valued utilizing pricing methodologies which consider similar factors that would be used by third party pricing services. Debt securities are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy but may be Level 3 depending on the circumstances.
Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value (NAV) each business day and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. The aggregate value of investments by input level as of March 31, 2023 is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments.
Foreign Currency. Certain Funds may use foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Gains and losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received, and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost and include proceeds received from litigation. Commissions paid to certain brokers with whom the investment adviser, or its affiliates, places trades on behalf of a fund include an amount in addition to trade execution, which may be rebated back to a fund. Any such rebates are included in net realized gain (loss) on investments in the Statement of Operations. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Income and capital gain distributions from Fidelity Central Funds, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Certain distributions received by the Fund represent a return of capital or capital gain. The Fund determines the components of these distributions subsequent to the ex-dividend date, based upon receipt of tax filings or other correspondence relating to the underlying investment. These distributions are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. Interest income is accrued as earned and includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities as applicable. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain. Funds may file withholding tax reclaims in certain jurisdictions to recover a portion of amounts previously withheld. Any withholding tax reclaims income is included in the Statement of Operations in foreign taxes withheld. Any receivables for withholding tax reclaims are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities in reclaims receivable.
Expenses. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that fund. Expenses attributable to more than one fund are allocated among the respective funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods. Expenses included in the accompanying financial statements reflect the expenses of that fund and do not include any expenses associated with any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds. Although not included in a fund's expenses, a fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses through the net asset value of each underlying mutual fund or exchange-traded fund. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, including distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains. As a result, no provision for U.S. Federal income taxes is required. The Fund files a U.S. federal tax return, in addition to state and local tax returns as required. The Fund's federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction. Foreign taxes are provided for based on the Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests. The Fund is subject to a tax imposed on capital gains by certain countries in which it invests. An estimated deferred tax liability for net unrealized appreciation on the applicable securities is included in Other payables and accrued expenses on the Statement of Assets & Liabilities.
Distributions are declared and recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP.
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Capital accounts are not adjusted for temporary book-tax differences which will reverse in a subsequent period.
Book-tax differences are primarily due to futures contracts, foreign currency transactions, certain foreign taxes, passive foreign investment companies (PFIC), partnerships and losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.
As of period end, the cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in securities, and derivatives if applicable, for federal income tax purposes were as follows:
Gross unrealized appreciation | $909,774,413 |
Gross unrealized depreciation | (151,217,778) |
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) | $758,556,635 |
Tax cost | $4,191,007,796 |
The Fund elected to defer to its next fiscal year approximately $107,875,546 of capital losses recognized during the period November 1, 2021 to September 30, 2022.
Delayed Delivery Transactions and When-Issued Securities. During the period, certain Funds transacted in securities on a delayed delivery or when-issued basis. Payment and delivery may take place after the customary settlement period for that security. The price of the underlying securities and the date when the securities will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. Securities purchased on a delayed delivery or when-issued basis are identified as such in the Schedule of Investments. Compensation for interest forgone in the purchase of a delayed delivery or when-issued debt security may be received. With respect to purchase commitments, each applicable Fund identifies securities as segregated in its records with a value at least equal to the amount of the commitment. Payables and receivables associated with the purchases and sales of delayed delivery securities having the same coupon, settlement date and broker are offset. Delayed delivery or when-issued securities that have been purchased from and sold to different brokers are reflected as both payables and receivables in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities under the caption "Delayed delivery", as applicable. Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the underlying securities or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract's terms, or if the issuer does not issue the securities due to political, economic, or other factors.
Restricted Securities (including Private Placements). Funds may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. Information regarding restricted securities held at period end is included at the end of the Schedule of Investments, if applicable.
4. Derivative Instruments.
Risk Exposures and the Use of Derivative Instruments. The Fund's investment objectives allow for various types of derivative instruments, including futures contracts. Derivatives are investments whose value is primarily derived from underlying assets, indices or reference rates and may be transacted on an exchange or over-the-counter (OTC). Derivatives may involve a future commitment to buy or sell a specified asset based on specified terms, to exchange future cash flows at periodic intervals based on a notional principal amount, or for one party to make one or more payments upon the occurrence of specified events in exchange for periodic payments from the other party.
Derivatives were used to increase returns and to manage exposure to certain risks as defined below. The success of any strategy involving derivatives depends on analysis of numerous economic factors, and if the strategies for investment do not work as intended, the objectives may not be achieved.
Derivatives were used to increase or decrease exposure to the following risk:
| |
Equity Risk | Equity risk relates to the fluctuations in the value of financial instruments as a result of changes in market prices (other than those arising from interest rate risk or foreign exchange risk), whether caused by factors specific to an individual investment, its issuer, or all factors affecting all instruments traded in a market or market segment. |
Funds are also exposed to additional risks from investing in derivatives, such as liquidity risk and counterparty credit risk. Liquidity risk is the risk that a fund will be unable to close out the derivative in the open market in a timely manner. Counterparty credit risk is the risk that the counterparty will not be able to fulfill its obligation to a fund. Counterparty credit risk related to exchange-traded contracts may be mitigated by the protection provided by the exchange on which they trade.
Investing in derivatives may involve greater risks than investing in the underlying assets directly and, to varying degrees, may involve risk of loss in excess of any initial investment and collateral received and amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, there may be the risk that the change in value of the derivative contract does not correspond to the change in value of the underlying instrument.
Futures Contracts. A futures contract is an agreement between two parties to buy or sell a specified underlying instrument for a fixed price at a specified future date. Futures contracts were used to manage exposure to the stock market.
Upon entering into a futures contract, a fund is required to deposit either cash or securities (initial margin) with a clearing broker in an amount equal to a certain percentage of the face value of the contract. Futures contracts are marked-to-market daily and subsequent daily payments are made or received by a fund depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the futures contracts and are recorded as unrealized appreciation or (depreciation). This receivable and/or payable, if any, is included in daily variation margin on futures contracts in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Realized gain or (loss) is recorded upon the expiration or closing of a futures contract. The net realized gain (loss) and change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on futures contracts during the period is presented in the Statement of Operations.
Any open futures contracts at period end are presented in the Schedule of Investments under the caption "Futures Contracts". The notional amount at value reflects each contract's exposure to the underlying instrument or index at period end, and is representative of volume of activity during the period unless an average notional amount is presented. Any securities deposited to meet initial margin requirements are identified in the Schedule of Investments. Any cash deposited to meet initial margin requirements is presented as segregated cash with brokers for derivative instruments in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
5. Purchases and Sales of Investments.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities and in-kind transactions, as applicable, are noted in the table below.
| Purchases ($) | Sales ($) |
Fidelity International Equity Central Fund | 1,388,626,808 | 756,716,477 |
6. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee and Expense Contract. Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (the investment adviser) provides the Fund with investment management services. The Fund does not pay any fees for these services. Pursuant to the Fund's management contract, the investment adviser receives a monthly management fee that represents a portion of the management fees it receives from the Investing Funds. In addition, under an expense contract, the investment adviser also pays all other expenses of the Fund, excluding custody fees, the compensation of the independent Directors, and certain miscellaneous expenses such as proxy and shareholder meeting expenses.
Brokerage Commissions. A portion of portfolio transactions were placed with brokerage firms which are affiliates of the investment adviser. Brokerage commissions are included in net realized gain (loss) and change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in the Statement of Operations. The commissions paid to these affiliated firms were as follows:
| Amount |

7. Security Lending.
Funds lend portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. Lending agents are used, including National Financial Services (NFS), an affiliate of the investment adviser. Pursuant to a securities lending agreement, NFS will receive a fee, which is capped at 9.9% of a fund's daily lending revenue, for its services as lending agent. A fund may lend securities to certain qualified borrowers, including NFS. On the settlement date of the loan, a fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of a fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to a fund on the next business day. A fund or borrower may terminate the loan at any time, and if the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund may apply collateral received from the borrower against the obligation. A fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned. Any cash collateral received is invested in the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. Any loaned securities are identified as such in the Schedule of Investments, and the value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end, as applicable, are presented in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Security lending income represents the income earned on investing cash collateral, less rebates paid to borrowers and any lending agent fees associated with the loan, plus any premium payments received for lending certain types of securities. Security lending income is presented in the Statement of Operations as a component of income from Fidelity Central Funds. Affiliated security lending activity, if any, was as follows:
| Total Security Lending Fees Paid to NFS | Security Lending Income From Securities Loaned to NFS | Value of Securities Loaned to NFS at Period End |
Fidelity International Equity Central Fund | $19,264 | $- | $- |
8. Other.
A fund's organizational documents provide former and current directors and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the fund. In the normal course of business, a fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. A fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against a fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
At the end of the period, mutual funds managed by the investment adviser or its affiliates were the owners of record of all of the outstanding shares of the Fund.
9. Risk and Uncertainties.
Many factors affect a fund's performance. Developments that disrupt global economies and financial markets, such as pandemics, epidemics, outbreaks of infectious diseases, war, terrorism, and environmental disasters, may significantly affect a fund's investment performance. The effects of these developments to a fund will be impacted by the types of securities in which a fund invests, the financial condition, industry, economic sector, and geographic location of an issuer, and a fund's level of investment in the securities of that issuer. Significant concentrations in security types, issuers, industries, sectors, and geographic locations may magnify the factors that affect a fund's performance.
As a shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, which may include sales charges (loads) on purchase payments or redemption proceeds, as applicable and (2) ongoing costs, which generally include management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (October 1, 2022 to March 31, 2023). |
Actual Expenses
The first line of the accompanying table 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 $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class/Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If any fund is a shareholder of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) (the Underlying Funds), such fund indirectly bears its proportional share of the expenses of the Underlying Funds in addition to the direct expenses incurred presented in the table. These fees and expenses are not included in the annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the accompanying table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the 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 Fund 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. If any fund is a shareholder of any Underlying Funds, such fund indirectly bears its proportional share of the expenses of the Underlying Funds in addition to the direct expenses as presented in the table. These fees and expenses are not included in the annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
| | | | Annualized Expense Ratio- A | | Beginning Account Value October 1, 2022 | | Ending Account Value March 31, 2023 | | Expenses Paid During Period- C October 1, 2022 to March 31, 2023 |
| | | | | | | | | | |
Fidelity® International Equity Central Fund | | | | 0.0048% | | | | | | |
Actual | | | | | | $ 1,000 | | $ 1,281.30 | | $ .03 |
Hypothetical- B | | | | | | $ 1,000 | | $ 1,024.91 | | $ .02 |
|
A Annualized expense ratio reflects expenses net of applicable fee waivers.
B 5% return per year before expenses
C Expenses are equal to the annualized expense ratio, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 182/ 365 (to reflect the one-half year period). The fees and expenses of any Underlying Funds are not included in each annualized expense ratio.
The Securities and Exchange Commission adopted Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the Liquidity Rule) to promote effective liquidity risk management throughout the open-end investment company industry, thereby reducing the risk that funds will be unable to meet their redemption obligations and mitigating dilution of the interests of fund shareholders.
The Fund has adopted and implemented a liquidity risk management program (the Program) reasonably designed to assess and manage the Fund's liquidity risk and to comply with the requirements of the Liquidity Rule. The Fund's Board of Trustees (the Board) has designated the Fund's investment adviser as administrator of the Program. The Fidelity advisers have established a Liquidity Risk Management Committee (the LRM Committee) to manage the Program for each of the Fidelity Funds. The LRM Committee monitors the adequacy and effectiveness of implementation of the Program and on a periodic basis assesses each Fund's liquidity risk based on a variety of factors including (1) the Fund's investment strategy, (2) portfolio liquidity and cash flow projections during normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed conditions, (3) shareholder redemptions, (4) borrowings and other funding sources and (5) certain factors specific to ETFs including the effect of the Fund's prices and spreads, market participants, and basket compositions on the overall liquidity of the Fund's portfolio, as applicable.
In accordance with the Program, each of the Fund's portfolio investments is classified into one of four defined liquidity categories based on a determination of a reasonable expectation for how long it would take to convert the investment to cash (or sell or dispose of the investment) without significantly changing its market value.
- Highly liquid investments - cash or convertible to cash within three business days or less
- Moderately liquid investments - convertible to cash in three to seven calendar days
- Less liquid investments - can be sold or disposed of, but not settled, within seven calendar days
- Illiquid investments - cannot be sold or disposed of within seven calendar days
Liquidity classification determinations take into account a variety of factors including various market, trading and investment-specific considerations, as well as market depth, and generally utilize analysis from a third-party liquidity metrics service.
The Liquidity Rule places a 15% limit on a fund's illiquid investments and requires funds that do not primarily hold assets that are highly liquid investments to determine and maintain a minimum percentage of the fund's net assets to be invested in highly liquid investments (highly liquid investment minimum or HLIM). The Program includes provisions reasonably designed to comply with the 15% limit on illiquid investments and for determining, periodically reviewing and complying with the HLIM requirement as applicable.
At a recent meeting of the Fund's Board of Trustees, the LRM Committee provided a written report to the Board pertaining to the operation, adequacy, and effectiveness of the Program for the period December 1, 2021 through November 30, 2022. The report concluded that the Program is operating effectively and is reasonably designed to assess and manage the Fund's liquidity risk.
