Performance: The Bottom Line
Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of the fund's distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund's total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. Performance numbers are net of all underlying fund operating expenses, but do not include any insurance charges imposed by your insurance company's separate account. If performance information included the effect of these additional charges, the total returns would have been lower. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

The chart shows how the value of your investment would have changed, and also shows how the Barclays Capital® U.S. Aggregate Bond Index performed over the same period.
Annual Report
Management's Discussion of Fund Performance
Market Recap: Against the backdrop of ultra-low interest rates, acute market volatility and a global flight to quality, U.S. taxable investment-grade bonds generated solid gains for the year ending December 31, 2011, as evidenced by the 7.84% return of the Barclays Capital® U.S. Aggregate Bond Index. Among the major sectors that comprise the index, U.S. Treasury bonds fared best, rising 9.81%. Treasuries benefited from robust investor demand for high-quality assets when the global economy weakened, inflation expectations fell, sovereign debt woes in Europe worsened, Congress wrangled over raising the federal debt ceiling and Standard & Poor's downgraded the U.S. long-term sovereign credit rating. Investment-grade corporate bonds gained 8.35%, bolstered by demand for higher-yielding bonds amid improved corporate profitability. Government-agency-issued residential mortgage-backed securities (MBS) rose 6.23%, receiving a boost from slower-than-expected prepayments and the Federal Reserve's program to reinvest payments from its holdings of agency debentures into the MBS sector, although the positive impact was somewhat offset by concerns that the bondholders would be negatively affected should the government modify homeowner refinancing programs. Slightly more muted returns were seen elsewhere in the market, with commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS), asset-backed securities (ABS) and government agency securities gaining 6.02%, 5.14% and 4.82%, respectively.
Comments from Ford O'Neil, Portfolio Manager of VIP Investment Grade Central Fund: For the year, the fund returned 7.96%, modestly outpacing the Barclays Capital index. Positioning among U.S. Treasury securities, an overweighting in corporate bonds and an underweighting in U.S. government agency securities bolstered relative performance, more than offsetting some disadvantageous sector weightings elsewhere and security selection among corporates. Although the fund gave up some ground due to an underweighting in Treasuries since they were among the U.S. fixed income market's best performers, overall yield-curve positioning within the sector was a plus. Specifically, overweighting 10- to 30-year bonds proved beneficial, as they significantly outpaced the index during the period. A corresponding underweighting in shorter-term Treasury issues also was advantageous, as this group showed more-subdued gains. An out-of-benchmark stake in Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS), with a focus on intermediate- and long-maturity bonds, further contributed. Conversely, an emphasis on lagging financials curbed our upside within corporates, while overweightings in asset-backed and commercial-backed mortgage securities also detracted.
The views expressed above reflect those of the portfolio manager(s) only through the end of the period as stated on the cover of this report and do not necessarily represent the views of Fidelity or any other person in the Fidelity organization. Any such views are subject to change at any time based upon market or other conditions and Fidelity disclaims any responsibility to update such views. These views may not be relied on as investment advice and, because investment decisions for a Fidelity fund are based on numerous factors, may not be relied on as an indication of trading intent on behalf of any Fidelity fund.
Annual Report
Shareholder Expense Example
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, and (2) ongoing costs, including other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the 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 (July 1, 2011 to December 31, 2011).
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 under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's 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 Fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund's actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the 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. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's 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.
| Annualized | Beginning | Ending | Expenses Paid |
Actual | .0020% | $ 1,000.00 | $ 1,045.10 | $ .01 |
Hypothetical (5% return per year before expenses) |
| $ 1,000.00 | $ 1,025.20 | $ .01 |
* Expenses are equal to the Fund's annualized expense ratio, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

Weighted Average Maturity as of December 31, 2011 | ||
|
| 6 months ago |
Years | 6.4 | 6.2 |
This is a weighted average of all the maturities of the securities held in a fund. Weighted Average Maturity (WAM) can be used as a measure of sensitivity to interest rate changes and market changes. Generally, the longer the maturity, the greater the sensitivity to such changes. WAM is based on the dollar-weighted average length of time until principal payments must be paid. Depending on the types of securities held in a fund, certain maturity shortening devices (e.g., demand features, interest rate resets, and call options) may be taken into account when calculating the WAM. |
Duration as of December 31, 2011 | ||
|
| 6 months ago |
Years | 4.8 | 5.0 |
Duration estimates how much a bond fund's price will change with a change in comparable interest rates. If rates rise 1%, for example, a fund with a 5-year duration is likely to lose about 5% of its value. Other factors also can influence a bond fund's performance and share price. Accordingly, a bond fund's actual performance may differ from this example. Duration takes into account any call or put option embedded in the bonds. |

Annual Report
Notes to Financial Statements
For the period ended December 31, 2011
1. Organization.
Fidelity VIP Investment Grade Central Fund (the Fund) is a fund of Fidelity Garrison Street Trust (the Trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. Shares of the Fund are only offered to other investment companies and accounts managed by Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR), or its affiliates (the Investing Funds).
2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
The Fund invests in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by FMR and its affiliates. The Fund's Schedule of Investments lists each of the Fidelity Central Funds held as of period end, if any, as an investment of the Fund, but do not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. As an Investing Fund, the Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
The Money Market Central Funds seek preservation of capital and current income and are managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM), an affiliate of FMR.
A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) web site at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds, which are not covered by the Fund's Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm are available on the SEC web site or upon request.
3. Significant Accounting Policies.
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 following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:
Security Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Fund uses independent pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees to value its investments. When current market prices or quotations are not readily available or reliable, valuations may be determined in good faith in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. Factors used in determining value may include market or security specific events, changes in interest rates and credit quality. The frequency with which these procedures are used cannot be predicted and they may be utilized to a significant extent. The value used for net asset value (NAV) calculation under these procedures may differ from published prices for the same securities.
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 - 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)
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 December 31, 2011 for the Fund's investments, as well as a roll forward of Level 3 securities, is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments. 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 independent pricing services or from dealers who make markets in such securities. For corporate bonds, foreign government and government agency obligations, municipal securities, supranational obligations and U.S. government and government agency obligations, pricing services utilize matrix pricing which considers yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type as well as dealer supplied prices and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For asset backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations, commercial mortgage securities and U.S. government agency mortgage securities, pricing services utilize matrix pricing which considers prepayment speed assumptions, attributes of the collateral, yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type as well as dealer supplied prices and, accordingly, such securities are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. Dealers which make markets in asset backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations and commercial mortgage securities may also consider such factors as the structure of the issue, cash flow assumptions, the value of underlying assets as well as any guarantees. Swaps are marked-to-market daily based on valuations from independent pricing services or dealer-supplied valuations and changes in value are recorded as unrealized appreciation (depreciation). Pricing services utilize matrix pricing which considers comparisons to interest rate curves, credit spread curves, default possibilities and recovery rates and, as a result, swaps are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. When independent prices are unavailable or

Security Valuation - continued
unreliable, debt securities and swaps may be valued utilizing pricing matrices which consider similar factors that would be used by independent pricing services. These 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 other Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value each business day and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.
New Accounting Pronouncements. In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) - Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. The update is effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and will result in additional disclosure for transfers between levels as well as expanded disclosure for securities categorized as Level 3 under the fair value hierarchy.
In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2011-11, Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. The update creates new disclosure requirements requiring entities to disclose both gross and net information for derivatives and other financial instruments that are either offset in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities or subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement. The disclosure requirements are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Management is currently evaluating the impact of the update's adoption on the Fund's financial statement disclosures.
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. Interest income and distributions from other Fidelity Central Funds are accrued as earned. Interest income includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities. The principal amount on inflation-indexed securities is periodically adjusted to the rate of inflation and interest is accrued based on the principal amount. The adjustments to principal due to inflation are reflected as increases or decreases to interest income even though principal is not received until maturity. 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.
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. 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, including distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code. As a result, no provision for income taxes is required. As of December 31, 2011, the Fund did not have any unrecognized tax benefits in the financial statements; nor is the Fund aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. The Fund files a U.S. federal tax return, in addition to state and local tax returns as required. A fund's tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three fiscal years. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction.
Dividends 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. Temporary book-tax differences will reverse in a subsequent period.
Book-tax differences are primarily due to swap agreements, market discount, financing transactions and losses deferred due to wash sales.
The federal tax cost of investment securities and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) as of period end were as follows:
Gross unrealized appreciation | $ 203,750,196 |
Gross unrealized depreciation | (47,355,920) |
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on securities and other investments | $ 156,394,276 |

Total | $ 202,273,170 | $ 277,206,974 |
4. Operating Policies.
Delayed Delivery Transactions and When-Issued Securities. During the period, the Fund 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. During the time a delayed delivery sell is outstanding, the contract is marked-to-market daily and equivalent deliverable securities are held for the transaction. The securities purchased on a delayed delivery or when-issued basis are identified as such in the Fund's Schedule of Investments. The Fund may receive compensation for interest forgone in the purchase of a delayed delivery or when-issued security. With respect to purchase commitments, the Fund identifies securities as segregated in its records with a value at least equal to the amount of the commitment. The 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 fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities under the caption "Delayed delivery." 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.
To-Be-Announced (TBA) Securities and Mortgage Dollar Rolls. During the period, the Fund transacted in TBA securities that involved buying or selling mortgage-backed securities (MBS) on a forward commitment basis. A TBA transaction typically does not designate the actual security to be delivered and only includes an approximate principal amount however; delivered securities must meet specified terms defined by industry guidelines, including issuer, rate and current principal amount outstanding on underlying mortgage pools. The Fund may enter into a TBA transaction with the intent to take possession of or deliver the underlying MBS, or the Fund may elect to extend the settlement by entering into either a mortgage or reverse mortgage dollar roll. Mortgage dollar rolls are transactions where a fund sells MBS and simultaneously agrees to repurchase MBS on a later date at a lower price and with the same counterparty. Reverse mortgage dollar rolls involve the purchase and simultaneous agreement to sell MBS on a later date at a lower price. Transactions in mortgage dollar rolls and reverse mortgage dollar rolls are accounted for as purchases and sales and may result in an increase to the Fund's portfolio turnover rate.
Purchases and sales of TBA securities involve risks similar to those discussed above for delayed delivery and when-issued securities. Also, if the counterparty in a dollar roll or a reverse dollar roll transaction files for bankruptcy or becomes insolvent, the Fund's right to repurchase or sell securities may be limited. Additionally, when a fund sells TBA securities without already owning or having the right to obtain the deliverable securities (an uncovered forward commitment to sell), it incurs a risk of loss because it could have to purchase the securities at a price that is higher than the price at which it sold them. A fund may be unable to purchase the deliverable securities if the corresponding market is illiquid.
TBA securities subject to a forward commitment to sell at period end are included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments under the caption "TBA Sale Commitments." The proceeds and value of these commitments are reflected in the Fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Restricted Securities. The Fund 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 is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments.
Annual Report
5. Derivative Instruments.
Risk Exposures and the Use of Derivative Instruments. The Fund used derivative instruments (derivatives), including swap agreements, in order to meet its investment objectives. The strategy is to use derivatives to increase returns, to gain exposure to certain types of assets 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 Fund may not achieve its objectives.
The Fund's use of derivatives increased or decreased its exposure to the following risks:
Credit Risk | Credit risk relates to the ability of the issuer of a financial instrument to make further principal or interest payments on an obligation or commitment that it has to the Fund. |
Interest Rate Risk | Interest rate risk relates to the fluctuations in the value of interest-bearing securities due to changes in the prevailing levels of market interest rates. |
The Fund is also exposed to additional risks from investing in derivatives, such as liquidity risk and counterparty credit risk. Liquidity risk is the risk that the Fund will be unable to sell 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 the Fund. Derivative counterparty credit risk is managed through formal evaluation of the creditworthiness of all potential counterparties. On certain over-the-counter derivatives, the Fund attempts to reduce its exposure to counterparty credit risk by entering into an International Swaps and Derivatives Association (ISDA) Master Agreement on a bilateral basis with each of its counterparties. The ISDA Master Agreement gives the Fund the right to terminate all transactions traded under such agreement if there is a certain deterioration in the credit quality of the counterparty. The ISDA Master Agreement gives each party the right, upon an event of default by the other party or a termination of the agreement, to close out all transactions traded under such agreement and to net amounts owed under each transaction to one net payable by one party to the other. To mitigate counterparty credit risk, the Fund receives collateral in the form of cash or securities, if required, which is held in segregated accounts with the Fund's custodian bank in accordance with the collateral agreements entered into between the Fund, the swap counterparty and the Fund's custodian bank. The Fund could experience delays and costs in gaining access to the collateral even though it is held by the Fund's custodian bank. The Fund's maximum risk of loss from counterparty credit risk is generally the aggregate unrealized appreciation and unpaid counterparty payments in excess of any collateral pledged by the counterparty to the Fund. The Fund may be required to pledge collateral for the benefit of the counterparties in an amount equal to the counterparties unrealized appreciation on outstanding swaps contracts, and any such pledged collateral is identified on the Schedule of Investments. Derivatives involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Net Realized Gain (Loss) and Change in Net Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) on Derivatives. The table below, which reflects the impacts of derivatives on the financial performance of the Fund, summarizes the net realized gain (loss) and change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) for derivatives during the period.

(a) A summary of the value of derivatives by risk exposure as of period end is included at the end of the Schedule of Investments and is representative of activity for the period.
Swap Agreements. A swap agreement (swap) is a contract between two parties to exchange future cash flows at periodic intervals based on a notional principal amount.
Details of swaps open at period end are included in the Schedule of Investments under the caption "Swap Agreements." Swaps are marked-to-market daily and changes in value are recorded as unrealized appreciation or (depreciation) and reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Any upfront premiums paid or received upon entering a swap to compensate for differences between stated terms of the agreement and prevailing market conditions (e.g. credit spreads, interest rates or other factors) are recorded as realized gain or (loss) ratably over the term of the swap. Payments are exchanged at specified intervals, accrued daily commencing with the effective date of the contract and recorded as realized gain or (loss). Realized gain or (loss) is also recorded in the event of an early termination of a swap. The net realized gain (loss) and change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on swaps during the period is included in the Statement of Operations.
Risks of loss include credit risk and interest rate risk. In addition, there is the risk of failure by the counterparty to perform under the terms of the agreement and lack of liquidity in the market.

Notes to Financial Statements - continued
5. Derivative Instruments - continued
Interest Rate Swaps. Interest rate swaps are agreements between counterparties to exchange cash flows, one based on a fixed rate, and the other on a floating rate. The Fund entered into interest rate swaps to manage its exposure to interest rate changes. Changes in interest rates can have an effect on both the value of bond holdings as well as the amount of interest income earned. In general, the value of bonds can fall when interest rates rise and can rise when interest rates fall.
Credit Default Swaps. Credit default swaps enable the Fund to buy or sell protection on a debt security or a basket of securities against a defined credit event. Under the terms of a credit default swap the buyer of protection (buyer) receives credit protection in exchange for making periodic payments to the seller of protection (seller) based on a fixed percentage applied to a notional principal amount. In return for these payments, the seller acts as a guarantor of the creditworthiness of a reference obligation. The Fund enters into credit default swaps as a seller to gain credit exposure to an issuer and/or as a buyer to provide a measure of protection against defaults of an issuer. The issuer may be either a single issuer or a "basket" of issuers. Periodic payments are made over the life of the contract provided that no credit event occurs.
For credit default swaps on most corporate and sovereign issuers, credit events include bankruptcy, failure to pay, obligation acceleration or repudiation/moratorium. For credit default swaps on corporate or sovereign issuers, the obligation that may be put to the seller is not limited to the specific reference obligation described in the Schedule of Investments. For credit default swaps on asset-backed securities, a credit event may be triggered by events such as failure to pay principal, maturity extension, rating downgrade or write-down. For credit default swaps on asset-backed securities, the reference obligation described represents the security that may be put to the seller.
As a seller, if an underlying credit event occurs, the Fund will either pay the buyer an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and take delivery of the reference obligation or underlying securities comprising an index or pay a net settlement amount of cash equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the reference obligation or underlying securities comprising an index.
As a buyer, if an underlying credit event occurs, the Fund will either receive from the seller an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and deliver the reference obligation or underlying securities comprising an index or receive a net settlement amount of cash equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the reference obligation or underlying securities comprising an index.
Typically, the value of each credit default swap and credit rating disclosed for each reference obligation in the Schedule of Investments, where the Fund is the seller, can be used as measures of the current payment/performance risk of the swap. As the value of the swap changes as a positive or negative percentage of the total notional amount, the payment/performance risk may decrease or increase, respectively. In addition to these measures, FMR monitors a variety of factors including cash flow assumptions, market activity and market sentiment as part of its ongoing process of assessing payment/performance risk.
The notional amount of credit default swaps is included in the Schedule of Investments and approximates the maximum potential amount of future payments that the Fund could be required to make if the Fund is the seller and a credit event were to occur. The total notional amount of all credit default swaps open at period end where the Fund is the seller amounted to $12,790,906 representing 0.34% of net assets.
6. Purchases and Sales of Investments.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities and U.S. government securities, aggregated $300,288,689 and $317,236,469, respectively.
7. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee and Expense Contract. FIMM, an affiliate of FMR, provides the Fund with investment management services. The Fund does not pay any fees for these services. Pursuant to the Fund's management contract with FIMM, FMR pays FIMM a portion of the management fees it receives from the Investing Funds. In addition, under an expense contract, FMR also pays all other expenses of the Fund, excluding custody fees, the compensation of the independent Trustees, and certain exceptions such as interest expense.
8. Expense Reductions.
FMR has voluntarily agreed to reimburse a portion of the Fund's operating expenses. For the period, the reimbursement reduced the expenses by $13,658.
In addition, through arrangements with the Fund's custodian, credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances were used to reduce the Fund's expenses. During the period, these credits reduced the Fund's custody expenses by $491.
Annual Report
9. Other.
The Fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees 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, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
At the end of the period, mutual funds managed by FMR or an FMR affiliate were the owners of record of all of the outstanding shares of the Fund according to the following schedule.
Fund | Ownership % |
VIP Asset Manager Portfolio | 11.9% |
VIP Asset Manager: Growth Portfolio | 0.9% |
VIP Balanced Portfolio | 11.6% |
VIP Investment Grade Bond Portfolio | 75.6% |
Credit Risk.
The Fund invests a portion of its assets in structured securities of issuers that hold mortgage securities, including securities backed by subprime mortgage loans. The value and related income of these securities is sensitive to changes in economic conditions, including delinquencies and/or defaults. Continuing shifts in the market's perception of credit quality on securities backed by subprime mortgage loans have resulted in increased volatility of market price and periods of illiquidity that have adversely impacted the valuation of certain issuers of the Fund.
Annual Report
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees of Fidelity Garrison Street Trust and Shareholders of Fidelity VIP Investment Grade Central Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Fidelity VIP Investment Grade Central Fund (the Fund), a fund of Fidelity Garrison Street Trust, including the schedule of investments, as of December 31, 2011, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2011, by correspondence with the custodians and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Fidelity VIP Investment Grade Central Fund as of December 31, 2011, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Trustees and Officers
The Trustees and executive officers of the trust and fund, as applicable, are listed below. The Board of Trustees governs the fund and is responsible for protecting the interests of shareholders. The Trustees are experienced executives who meet periodically throughout the year to oversee the fund's activities, review contractual arrangements with companies that provide services to the fund, oversee management of the risks associated with such activities and contractual arrangements, and review the fund's performance. Except for James C. Curvey, each of the Trustees oversees 203 funds advised by FMR or an affiliate. Mr. Curvey oversees 429 funds advised by FMR or an affiliate.
The Trustees hold office without limit in time except that (a) any Trustee may resign; (b) any Trustee may be removed by written instrument, signed by at least two-thirds of the number of Trustees prior to such removal; (c) any Trustee who requests to be retired or who has become incapacitated by illness or injury may be retired by written instrument signed by a majority of the other Trustees; and (d) any Trustee may be removed at any special meeting of shareholders by a two-thirds vote of the outstanding voting securities of the trust. Each Trustee who is not an interested person (as defined in the 1940 Act) (Independent Trustee), shall retire not later than the last day of the calendar year in which his or her 75th birthday occurs. The Independent Trustees may waive this mandatory retirement age policy with respect to individual Trustees. The executive officers hold office without limit in time, except that any officer may resign or may be removed by a vote of a majority of the Trustees at any regular meeting or any special meeting of the Trustees. Except as indicated, each individual has held the office shown or other offices in the same company for the past five years.
Experience, Skills, Attributes, and Qualifications of the Fund's Trustees. The Governance and Nominating Committee has adopted a statement of policy that describes the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills that are necessary and desirable for potential Independent Trustee candidates (Statement of Policy). The Board believes that each Trustee satisfied at the time he or she was initially elected or appointed a Trustee, and continues to satisfy, the standards contemplated by the Statement of Policy. The Governance and Nominating Committee also engages professional search firms to help identify potential Independent Trustee candidates who have the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills consistent with the Statement of Policy. From time to time, additional criteria based on the composition and skills of the current Independent Trustees, as well as experience or skills that may be appropriate in light of future changes to board composition, business conditions, and regulatory or other developments, have also been considered by the professional search firms and the Governance and Nominating Committee. In addition, the Board takes into account the Trustees' commitment and participation in Board and committee meetings, as well as their leadership of standing and ad hoc committees throughout their tenure.
In determining that a particular Trustee was and continues to be qualified to serve as a Trustee, the Board has considered a variety of criteria, none of which, in isolation, was controlling. The Board believes that, collectively, the Trustees have balanced and diverse experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills, which allow the Board to operate effectively in governing the fund and protecting the interests of shareholders. Information about the specific experience, skills, attributes, and qualifications of each Trustee, which in each case led to the Board's conclusion that the Trustee should serve (or continue to serve) as a trustee of the fund, is provided below.
Board Structure and Oversight Function. Abigail P. Johnson is an interested person (as defined in the 1940 Act) and currently serves as Chairman. The Trustees have determined that an interested Chairman is appropriate and benefits shareholders because an interested Chairman has a personal and professional stake in the quality and continuity of services provided to the fund. Independent Trustees exercise their informed business judgment to appoint an individual of their choosing to serve as Chairman, regardless of whether the Trustee happens to be independent or a member of management. The Independent Trustees have determined that they can act independently and effectively without having an Independent Trustee serve as Chairman and that a key structural component for assuring that they are in a position to do so is for the Independent Trustees to constitute a substantial majority for the Board. The Independent Trustees also regularly meet in executive session. Kenneth L. Wolfe serves as Chairman of the Independent Trustees and as such (i) acts as a liaison between the Independent Trustees and management with respect to matters important to the Independent Trustees and (ii) with management prepares agendas for Board meetings.
Fidelity funds are overseen by different Boards of Trustees. The fund's Board oversees Fidelity's investment-grade bond, money market, and asset allocation funds and another Board oversees Fidelity's equity and high income funds. The asset allocation funds may invest in Fidelity funds that are overseen by such other Board. The use of separate Boards, each with its own committee structure, allows the Trustees of each group of Fidelity funds to focus on the unique issues of the funds they oversee, including common research, investment, and operational issues. On occasion, the separate Boards establish joint committees to address issues of overlapping consequences for the Fidelity funds overseen by each Board.
The Trustees operate using a system of committees to facilitate the timely and efficient consideration of all matters of importance to the Trustees, the fund, and fund shareholders and to facilitate compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and oversight of the fund's activities and associated risks. The Board, acting through its committees, has charged FMR and its affiliates with (i) identifying events or circumstances the occurrence of which could have demonstrably adverse effects on the fund's business and/or reputation; (ii) implementing processes and controls to lessen the possibility that such events or circumstances occur or to mitigate the effects of such events or circumstances if they do occur; and (iii) creating and maintaining a system designed to evaluate continuously business and market conditions in order to facilitate the identification and implementation processes described in (i) and (ii) above. Because the day-to-day operations and activities of the fund are carried out by or through FMR, its affiliates and other service providers, the fund's exposure to risks is mitigated but not eliminated by the processes overseen by the Trustees. While each of the Board's committees has responsibility for overseeing different aspects of the fund's activities, oversight is exercised primarily through the Operations and Audit Committees. In addition, an ad hoc Board committee of Independent Trustees has worked with FMR to enhance the Board's oversight of investment and financial risks, legal and regulatory risks, technology risks, and operational risks, including the development of additional risk reporting to the Board. Appropriate personnel, including but not limited to the fund's Chief Compliance Officer (CCO), FMR's internal auditor, the independent accountants, the fund's Treasurer and portfolio management personnel, make periodic reports to the Board's committees, as appropriate, including an annual review of FMR's risk management program for the Fidelity funds. The responsibilities of each standing committee, including their oversight responsibilities, are described further under "Standing Committees of the Fund's Trustees."

Board Approval of Investment Advisory Contracts and Management Fees
VIP Investment Grade Central Fund
Each year, the Board of Trustees, including the Independent Trustees (together, the Board), votes on the renewal of the management contract and sub-advisory agreements (together, the Advisory Contracts) for the fund. The Board, assisted by the advice of fund counsel and Independent Trustees' counsel, requests and considers a broad range of information relevant to the renewal of the Advisory Contracts throughout the year.
The Board meets regularly and considers at each of its meetings factors that are relevant to its annual consideration of the renewal of the fund's Advisory Contracts, including the services and support provided to the fund and its shareholders. The Board has established three standing committees, Operations, Audit, and Nominating and Governance, each composed of Independent Trustees with varying backgrounds, to which the Board has assigned specific subject matter responsibilities in order to enhance effective decision-making by the Board. The Operations Committee, of which all of the Independent Trustees are members, meets regularly throughout the year and, among other matters, considers matters specifically related to the annual consideration of the renewal of the fund's Advisory Contracts. The Board, acting directly and through its Committees, requests and receives information concerning the annual consideration of the renewal of the fund's Advisory Contracts. The Board also meets as needed to consider matters specifically related to the Board's annual consideration of the renewal of Advisory Contracts. Members of the Board may also meet with trustees of other Fidelity funds through ad hoc joint committees to discuss certain matters relevant to the Fidelity funds.
At its September 2011 meeting, the Board of Trustees, including the Independent Trustees, unanimously determined to renew the fund's Advisory Contracts. In reaching its determination, the Board considered all factors it believed relevant and reached a determination, with the assistance of fund counsel and Independent Trustees' counsel and through the exercise of its business judgment, that the renewal of the Advisory Contracts is in the best interests of the fund and its shareholders and that the lack of compensation payable under the management contract is fair and reasonable.
Nature, Extent, and Quality of Services Provided. The Board considered the staffing within the investment adviser, Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc., and the sub-advisers (together, the Investment Advisers), including the backgrounds of the fund's investment personnel and the fund's investment objective and discipline. The Independent Trustees also had discussions with senior management of Fidelity's investment operations and investment groups. The Board considered the structure of the portfolio manager compensation program and whether this structure provides appropriate incentives to act in the best interests of the fund.
Resources Dedicated to Investment Management and Support Services. The Board reviewed the general qualifications and capabilities of the Investment Advisers' investment staff, including its size, education, experience, and resources, as well as the Investment Advisers' approach to recruiting, managing, and compensating investment personnel. The Board also noted that Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) has devoted increased resources to non U.S. offices. The Board noted that Fidelity's analysts have extensive resources, tools and capabilities which allow them to conduct sophisticated quantitative and fundamental analysis, as well as credit analysis of issuers, counterparties and enhancers. The Board also believes that Fidelity's investment professionals have sufficient access to global information and data so as to provide competitive investment results over time, and that those professionals also have access to sophisticated tools which permit them to assess portfolio construction and risk and performance attribution characteristics continuously, as well as to transmit new information and research conclusions rapidly around the world. Additionally, in its deliberations, the Board considered the Investment Advisers' trading capabilities and resources which are an integral part of the investment management process.
Administrative Services. The Board considered (i) the nature, extent, quality, and cost of advisory and administrative services performed by the Investment Advisers and their affiliates under the Advisory Contracts and under separate agreements covering transfer agency, pricing and bookkeeping, and securities lending services for the fund; (ii) the nature and extent of the investment adviser's supervision of third party service providers, principally custodians and subcustodians; and (iii) the resources devoted to, and the record of compliance with, the fund's compliance policies and procedures.
Investment Performance. The Board considered whether the fund has operated in accordance with its investment objective, as well as its record of compliance with its investment restrictions. The Board reviewed the fund's absolute investment performance, as well as the fund's relative investment performance, but did not consider performance to be a material factor in its decision to renew the fund's Advisory Contracts. The Board noted that the fund is designed to offer a liquid investment option for other investment companies and accounts managed by FMR or its affiliates and ultimately to enhance the performance of those investment companies and accounts.
Based on its review, the Board concluded that the nature, extent, and quality of services provided to the fund under the Advisory Contracts should benefit the fund's shareholders.
Competitiveness of Management Fee and Total Expense Ratio. The Board considered that while the fund does not pay a management fee, FMR pays a management fee on behalf of the fund and receives fees for providing services to funds that invest in the fund. The Board also noted that FMR bears all expenses of the fund, except expenses related to the fund's investment activities (primarily custody expenses). Based on its review, the Board concluded that the management fee paid on behalf of the fund and the fund's total expense ratio were reasonable in light of the services that the fund and its shareholders receive and the other factors considered.
Annual Report
Costs of the Services and Profitability. The Board considered the level of Fidelity's profits in respect of all the Fidelity funds, as well as the profitability of each fund that invests in this fund.
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (PwC), independent registered public accounting firm and auditor to Fidelity and certain Fidelity funds, has been engaged annually by the Board as part of the Board's assessment of Fidelity's profitability analysis. PwC's engagement includes the review and assessment of Fidelity's methodologies used in determining the revenues and expenses attributable to Fidelity's mutual fund business, and completion of agreed-upon procedures surrounding the mathematical accuracy of fund profitability and its conformity to allocation methodologies. After considering PwC's reports issued under the engagement and information provided by Fidelity, the Board concluded that while other allocation methods may also be reasonable, Fidelity's profitability methodologies are reasonable in all material respects.
The Board also reviewed Fidelity's non-fund businesses and fall-out benefits related to the mutual fund business as well as cases where Fidelity's affiliates may benefit from or be related to the fund's business.
The Board concluded that the costs of the services provided by and the profits realized by Fidelity in connection with the operation of the fund were not relevant to the renewal of the Advisory Contracts because the fund pays no advisory fees and FMR bears all expenses of the fund, except expenses related to the fund's investment activities.
Economies of Scale. The Board concluded that because the fund pays no advisory fees and FMR bears all expenses of the fund, except expenses related to the fund's investment activities, economies of scale cannot be realized by the fund.
Additional Information Requested by the Board. In order to develop fully the factual basis for consideration of the Fidelity funds' Advisory Contracts, the Board requested and received additional information on certain topics, including: (i) Fidelity's fund profitability methodology, profitability trends for certain funds, and the impact of certain factors on fund profitability results; (ii) portfolio manager changes that have occurred during the past year and the amount of the investment that each portfolio manager has made in the Fidelity fund(s) that he or she manages; (iii) Fidelity's compensation structure for portfolio managers, research analysts, and other key personnel, including its effects on fund profitability, the rationale for the compensation structure, and the extent to which current market conditions have affected retention and recruitment; (iv) the compensation paid to fund sub-advisers on behalf of the Fidelity funds; (v) Fidelity's fee structures and rationale for recommending different fees among different categories of funds and classes, as well as Fidelity's voluntary waiver of its fees to maintain minimum yields for certain money market funds and classes; (vi) the reasons why certain expenses affect various funds and classes differently; (vii) Fidelity's transfer agent fees, expenses, and services and how the benefits of decreased costs and new efficiencies can be shared across all of the Fidelity funds; (viii) the reasons for and consequences of changes to certain product lines compared to competitors; (ix) the allocation of and historical trends in Fidelity's realization of fall-out benefits; and (x) explanations regarding the relative total expense ratios of certain funds and classes, total expense competitive trends, and actions that might be taken by FMR to reduce total expense ratios for certain funds and classes or to achieve further economies of scale.
Based on its evaluation of all of the conclusions noted above, and after considering all factors it believed relevant, the Board ultimately concluded that the advisory fee structures are fair and reasonable, and that the fund's Advisory Contracts should be renewed.

The trust's Audit Committee has considered non-audit services that were not pre-approved that were provided by Deloitte Entities to Fund Service Providers to be compatible with maintaining the independence of Deloitte Entities in its audit of the Fund, taking into account representations from Deloitte Entities, in accordance with Public Company Accounting Oversight Board rules, regarding its independence from the Fund and its related entities and FMR's review of the appropriateness and permissibility under applicable law of such non-audit services prior to their provision to the Fund Service Providers.
Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures
The trust's Audit Committee must pre-approve all audit and non-audit services provided by a fund's independent registered public accounting firm relating to the operations or financial reporting of the fund. Prior to the commencement of any audit or non-audit services to a fund, the Audit Committee reviews the services to determine whether they are appropriate and permissible under applicable law.
The Audit Committee has adopted policies and procedures to, among other purposes, provide a framework for the Committee's consideration of non-audit services by the audit firms that audit the Fidelity funds. The policies and procedures require that any non-audit service provided by a fund audit firm to a Fidelity fund and any non-audit service provided by a fund auditor to a Fund Service Provider that relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of a Fidelity fund ("Covered Service") are subject to approval by the Audit Committee before such service is provided.
All Covered Services must be approved in advance of provision of the service either: (i) by formal resolution of the Audit Committee, or (ii) by oral or written approval of the service by the Chair of the Audit Committee (or if the Chair is unavailable, such other member of the Audit Committee as may be designated by the Chair to act in the Chair's absence). The approval contemplated by (ii) above is permitted where the Treasurer determines that action on such an engagement is necessary before the next meeting of the Audit Committee.
Non-audit services provided by a fund audit firm to a Fund Service Provider that do not relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of a Fidelity fund are reported to the Audit Committee on a periodic basis.
Non-Audit Services Approved Pursuant to Rule 2-01(c)(7)(i)(C) and (ii) of Regulation S-X ("De Minimis Exception")
There were no non-audit services approved or required to be approved by the Audit Committee pursuant to the De Minimis Exception during the Fund's last two fiscal years relating to services provided to (i) the Fund or (ii) any Fund Service Provider that relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Fund.
