A LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN AND CEO
Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to present this semiannual report for Dreyfus Institutional Reserves Funds, covering the six-month period from January 1, 2010, through June 30, 2010.
After posting solid gains over the second half of 2009 and the first quarter of 2010, the financial markets encountered renewed volatility late in the reporting period, which caused world stocks and some of the bond market’s higher-yielding sectors to erase some of their previous gains. Conversely, traditional safe havens such as gold and U.S. Treasury securities rallied as investors became more risk-averse.
Despite recent headlines about the current state of the U.S. economy, we still believe that it is unlikely that we’ll encounter a “double-dip” recession. Instead, we expect current financial strains to ease and the domestic economy to expand at a moderate pace over the second half of the year. However, we currently see a number of downside risks that could result in volatility over the short term, which is why we still believe that a long-term investment focus with an emphasis on high quality investments may be suitable for many investors.
We believe that short-term and liquid asset mutual fund investments are an important part of a long-term investment focus. But if you have not recently reviewed your portfolio, perhaps now is a good time to talk to your financial advisor about the current market environment and about potential opportunities provided by the financial markets in this investment climate.
For information about how the fund performed during the reporting period, as well as general market perspectives, we provide a Discussion of Fund Performance on the pages that follow.
Thank you for your continued confidence and support.

U.S. economic growth remained relatively mild during the reporting period, and the Federal Reserve Board (the “Fed”) maintained its target for the overnight federal funds rate between 0% and 0.25%. Consequently, money market yields stayed near historical lows over the first six months of 2010.
Monetary Policy Remained Unchanged in Muted Recovery
2010 began in the midst of an economic recovery that was fueled, in part, by the Fed’s aggressive monetary policy, including an overnight federal funds rate that remained unchanged in a historically low range between 0% and 0.25%.As a result,money market yields remained near zero percent during the reporting period.
When the year began, the economic recovery appeared to remain on track, and economists were encouraged by positive data, such as a better-than-expected improvement in retail sales in January. In addition, the unemployment rate fell to 9.7%, and job losses continued to moderate in January and February. Manufacturing activity rose for the eighth straight month in March, and it did so at the fastest rate in almost six years.Employment improved in April by the largest margin in approximately four years, as non-farm payrolls grew by 290,000 even as workers returning to the labor force pushed the unemployment rate up to 9.9%. 431,000 additional new jobs were created in May, although most were temporary workers hired for the 2010 Census.
Nonetheless,U.S.GDP grew at a revised 3.7% annualized rate during the first quarter of 2010,a far milder gain than similar stages of most previous recoveries. Moreover, the housing market continued to struggle during the first quarter, with existing home sales sliding –0.6% in March compared to the previous month, even before the expiration of tax credits for first-time homebuyers.
In May and June, a sovereign debt crisis in Europe and inflationary pressures in China contributed to greater
4
economic uncertainty worldwide, sparking heightened volatility in international stock and bond markets. In the United States, the Consumer Price Index slid –0.1% in April, primarily due to lower energy prices, even as retail sales and industrial production posted gains. However, government budget cutbacks in Europe created concerns that demand for goods and services, including those from U.S. companies, could suffer significantly. Indeed, U.S. manufacturing activity appeared to moderate in June, and private-sector job growth, while positive, proved more anemic than many analysts expected.
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) has issued new regulations governing money market funds, many of which had compliance dates in May and June.According to the SEC, the “new rules are intended to increase the resilience of money market funds to economic stresses and reduce the risks of runs on the funds by tightening the maturity and credit quality standards and imposing new liquidity requirements.” These new regulations had relatively little impact on the fund, which historically has been conservatively managed.
An Unwavering Focus on Quality
With few opportunities available in the short-term credit markets for significant levels of current income, most money market funds continued to maintain weighted maturities well below historical averages.The funds were no exception, as we set their weighted average maturities roughly in line with industry averages.
Although the mild economic recovery is maturing, inflationary pressures have remained low, and the Fed repeatedly has stated that economic conditions “are likely to warrant exceptionally low levels of the federal funds rate for an extended period.” The subpar U.S. recovery, along with expectations of sustained economic weakness in Europe, has convinced many analysts that a shift to a more restrictive monetary policy is unlikely anytime soon.

An investment in the fund is not insured or guaranteed by the FDIC or any other government agency. Although the fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the fund.
Short-term corporate and asset-backed securities holdings, while rated in the highest rating category by one or more NRSRO (or unrated, if deemed of comparable quality by Dreyfus), involve credit and liquidity risks and risk of principal loss.
1 | Annualized effective yield is based upon dividends declared daily and |
reinvested monthly. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. | |
Yields fluctuate. | |
2 | Yields provided reflect the absorption of certain fund expenses by The |
Dreyfus Corporation pursuant to an undertaking in effect through September | |
30, 2010, at which time it may be extended, terminated or modified. Had | |
these expenses not been absorbed, fund yields would have been lower, and in | |
some cases, 7-day yields during the reporting period would have been | |
negative absent the expense absorption. |

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES (Unaudited)
As a mutual fund investor, you pay ongoing expenses, such as management fees and other expenses. Using the information below, you can estimate how these expenses affect your investment and compare them with the expenses of other funds.You also may pay one-time transaction expenses, including sales charges (loads) and redemptions fees, which are not shown in this section and would have resulted in higher total expenses. For more information, see your fund’s prospectus or talk to your financial adviser.
Review your fund’s expenses
The table below shows the expenses you would have paid on a $1,000 investment in each class of each fund from January 1, 2010 to June 30, 2010. It also shows how much a $1,000 investment would be worth at the close of the period, assuming actual returns and expenses.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
NOTE 1—Significant Accounting Policies:
Dreyfus Institutional Reserves Money Fund, Dreyfus Institutional ReservesTreasury Fund and Dreyfus Institutional Reserves Treasury Prime Fund (each, a “fund”), each a separate series of Dreyfus Institutional Reserves Funds (the “Company”), are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”). Each fund is a diversified open-end management investment company. The Company accounts separately for the assets, liabilities and operations of each series. Each fund’s investment objective is to provide investors with as high a level of current income as is consistent with the preservation of capital and the maintenance of liquidity.The Dreyfus Corporation (the “Manager” or “Dreyfus”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation (“BNY Mellon”), serves as the funds’ investment adviser.
MBSC Securities Corporation (the “Distributor”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Manager, is the distributor of each fund’s shares, which are sold to the public without a sales charge. Each fund offers Institutional shares, Hamilton shares, Agency shares and Premier shares. In addition, Dreyfus Institutional Reserves Money Fund and Dreyfus Institutional Reserves Treasury Fund also offer Classic shares. Each fund is authorized to issue an unlimited number of $.001 par value shares of Beneficial Interest. Hamilton shares, Agency shares, Premier shares and Classic shares are subject to a Service Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Act.
As of June 30, 2010, MBC Investments Corp., an indirect subsidiary of BNY Mellon, held 6,250 Agency shares of Dreyfus Institutional Reserves Treasury Prime Fund.
It is each fund’s policy to maintain a continuous net asset value per share of $1.00 for each class; each fund has adopted certain investment, portfolio valuation and dividend and distribution policies to enable it to do so.There is no assurance, however, that each fund will be able to maintain a stable net asset value per share of $1.00.
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) is the exclusive reference of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under authority of federal laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants.The fund’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP, which may require the use of management estimates and assumptions. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The Company enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnifications.The funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown. The funds do not anticipate recognizing any loss related to these arrangements.
(a) Portfolio valuation: Investments in securities are valued at amortized cost in accordance with Rule 2a-7 of the Act, which has been determined by the Board of Trustees to represent the fair value of each fund’s investments.
The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e. the exit price). GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs of valuation techniques used to measure fair value. This hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).
Additionally, GAAP provides guidance on determining whether the volume and activity in a market has decreased significantly and whether such a decrease in activity results in transactions that are not orderly. GAAP requires enhanced disclosures around valuation inputs and techniques used during annual and interim periods.
Various inputs are used in determining the value of the fund’s investments relating to fair value measurements.These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed 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, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3—significant unobservable inputs (including the
fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of
investments).
The Funds | 21 |
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For example, money market securities are valued using amortized cost, in accordance with rules under the Act. Generally, amortized cost approximates the current fair value of a security, but since the value is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, such securities are reflected as Level 2.
Table 1 summarizes the inputs used as of June 30, 2010 in valuing each fund’s investments.
(b) Securities transactions and investment income: Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Interest income, adjusted for accretion of discount and amortization of premium on investments, is earned from settlement date and is recognized on the accrual basis. Realized gains and losses from securities transactions are recorded on the identified cost basis. Cost of investments represents amortized cost.
Dreyfus Institutional Reserves Money Fund and Dreyfus Institutional Reserves Treasury Fund may enter into repurchase agreements with financial institutions, deemed to be creditworthy by the Manager, subject to the seller’s agreement to repurchase and the funds’ agreement to resell such securities at a mutually agreed upon price. Securities purchased subject to repurchase agreements are deposited with the fund’s custodian and, pursuant to the terms of the repurchase agreement, must have an aggregate market value greater than or equal to the repurchase price plus accrued interest at all times. If the value of the underlying securities falls below the value of the repurchase price plus accrued interest, the funds will require the seller to deposit additional collateral by the next business day. If the request for additional collateral is not met, or the se ller defaults on its repurchase obligation, the funds maintain the right to sell the underlying securities at market value and may claim any resulting loss against the seller.
(c) Expenses: Expenses directly attributable to each series are charged to that series operations; expenses which are applicable to all series are allocated among them on a pro rata basis.
(d) Dividends to shareholders: It is the policy of each fund to declare dividends from investment income-net on each business day; such dividends are paid monthly. Dividends from net realized capital gains, if any, are normally declared and paid annually, but each fund may make distributions on a more frequent basis to comply with the distribution requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).To the extent that net realized capital gains can be offset by capital loss carryovers, it is the policy of each fund not to distribute such gains.
(e) Federal income taxes: It is the policy of each fund to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company, if such qualification is in the best interests of its shareholders, by complying with the applicable provisions of the Code, and to make distributions of taxable income sufficient to relieve it from substantially all federal income and excise taxes. For federal tax purposes, each fund is treated as a separate entity for the purpose of determining such qualification.
As of and during the period ended June 30, 2010, the funds did not have any liabilities for any uncertain tax positions. Each fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to uncertain tax positions as income tax expense in the Statements of Operations. During the period, the funds did not incur any interest or penalties.
