Shorter-term yields increased even further, with the two-year government bond yield rising to 3.0% from approximately 2.5% at the start of the period, ensuring that the yield curve flattened between the 10-year and two-

Manags Reportfor the year ended April 30, 2026
EuropeGovernment bond markets in Europe were weaker over the 12 months to the end of April on worries about renewed inflationary pressures and increasing borrowing requirements for already stretched national budgets.
German bond yields rose, with the German benchmark 10-year Bund yield climbing from 2.50% to just over 3.0%, its highest level since 2011. The rise in shorter-term bond yields was even greater, with the two-year bond yield climbing by approximately 85 basi

bond yield climbing from 3.2% to 3.7%. The rise in Italian yields was more modest, however, and the Italian 10-year bond yield rose by only 20 bps, from 3.65% to 3.85%. The peripheral bond yield spread (between the German and Italian benchmark bond yields) fell below 100 bps to its lowest level for 16 ye
Annual headline inflation in the eurozone remained steady for much of the period at around the 2% level. However, it picked up notably in March and April, as energy prices began to rise again. This was mainly a result of events in the Middle East that have prevented any oil or gas supplies from being moved through the Strait of Hormuz. Headline inflation, which had been 2.2% in April 2025, climbed to 3.0% in April 2026, with fears that it would continue to head higher. The April 2026 figure was the highest since September 2023, driven by an energy price rise of 10.9%. However, underlying or core inflation (which excludes volatile items such as energy and food prices) was largely unchanged over the period, ending it at 2.2% for April. The European Central Bank
it considered the risks
between inflation and economic growth to be well balanced.
Economic growth was subdued. The eurozone economy grew by 0.3% on a quarterly basis in the third quarter of 2025, followed by 0.2% in the fourth quarter and just 0.1% in the first quarter of 2026. Overall economic trends remained fragile. Various consumer confidence and business sentiment indices remained lacklustre and notably worsened towards the end of the reporting year. The manufacturing sector, however, did recover in early 2026, with the eurozone manufacturing purchasing managers index rising above the 50.0 level (that separates economic expansion from contraction) in the three months from February to April, and hitting a near-four-year high in the final month of the period.

This Manager's Report contains certain forward-looking statements with respect to the financial markets. These statements should not be considered personal financial advice.
Manags Report for the year ended April 30, 2026 The United KingdomThe UK government bond market produced mildly positive returns in sterling terms over the reporting year and outperformed the wider Citigroup World Government Bond Index. However, bond prices lurched downwards in the first few months of 2026 as inflation began to pick up again and the situation in the Middle East worsened. Corporate bonds did better than government bonds, benefiting from a greater risk tolerance among investors seeking the higher relative yields on offer.
se rates again. UK bonds were also unsettled by the disruption from US trade tariffs and their potential impact on inflation levels, as well as growing worries about national debt levels and large new bond issuance.
The UK benchmark 10-year gilt yield rose over the period from approximately 4.6% to just over 5%, its highest level for 18 years. Shorter-dated gilt yields also gained and the two-year gilt yield rose from about 3.9% to 4.45%. This caused the yield curve to flatten slightly from about 70 basis points ( bps ) to 55 bps. The other key concern throughout the year which kept bond yields at high levels was rising public spending and the UK s stretched fiscal position, meaning that the UK could find it increasingly costly to finance its spending plans.
Annual inflation fell from 3.5% in April 2025 to 3.3% in March 2026 but remained high relative to other G7 nations. Core inflation (excluding energy and food prices) fell from 3.8% to 3.1% over the same period. The BoE cut interest rates three times, from 4.5% to 3.75%, with the final 25 bps cut coming in December. There were hopes that the BoE would cut again in early 2026 but the events in the Middle East largely ended those hopes, with some fearing the central bank may have to raise rates again.
Investors worried about the outlook for the UK economy. This did not only reflect ongoing issues around slower growth abroad and the adaption of commerce to the new regime of US trade tariffs but also concerns about the state of domestic business activity and the high cost of living. The economy grew by just 0.1% in the third and fourth quarters of 2025, as the manufacturing sector contracted and services slowed.
Other economic data was mixed. Unemployment crept up to a more than four-year high of 5.2% in the three months to January, as companies retrenched and vacancies began to dry up, although it fell back to 4.9% in the three months to February; this latter figure, however, was influenced by a large number of people no longer seeking work and thus dropping out of the statistics. Consumer sentiment remained soggy, although retail sales figures did pick up in January after a poor Christmas season. The manufacturing purchasing managers index recovered and hit 53.7 in April 2026, its highest level since May 2022, partly driven by companies accelerating production ahead of potentially much higher energy prices due to the conflict in the Middle East.

This Manager's Report contains certain forward-looking statements with respect to the financial markets. These statements should not be considered personal financial advice.
Manags Report for the year ended April 30, 2026 The United StatesThe US government bond market produced mildly positive returns in US dollars, but only very marginally positive returns in sterling terms owing to the weakness in the dollar against the pound over the period. While the latter half of 2025 saw the US Feder to cut rates, the first few months of 2026 saw a marked change in the inflation outlook as the situation in the Middle East drove oil and gas prices substantially higher. Bond investors and traders were also concerned about the growing budget deficit and bond financing requirements in the US, as well as the effect of US trade tariffs on inflation. After trading in a relatively stable fashion through 2025, bond yields picked up towards the end of 2025.
The US 10-year Treasury yield ended largely unchanged over the period at 4.35%. It dipped below 4.0% in October, when concerns mounted about the US economy and a weakening labour market, but was near 4.5% at the end of April the highest level since last summer before easing slightly. The two-year Treasury note yield was also largely unchanged, starting and ending the year at around 3.85%, meaning the yield curve remained mildly upward-sloping at around a positive 50 basis points. Corporate bonds fared better than government bonds owing to the higher relative yields on offer.
The Fed was initially cautious about easing monetary policy too quickly and left rates unchanged during the spring and summer months of 2025. However, by September, the central bank had grown circumspect about the risks of inflation and become more concerned about the economic outlook, leading it to cut rates that month. Rates were lowered again in October and December, taking the Fed s funds rate down to a range of 3.50%-3.75%. Headline inflation began to pick up steadily through 2025, before leaping in March 2026 as the impact of rising energy prices, a consequence of events in the Middle East, began to be felt. Inflation rose from 2.3% in April 2025 to 3.3% in March of 2026, its highest level for almost three years. However, core inflation, which excludes food and energy prices, fell from 2.8% to 2.6% over the same period, an indication that underlying inflation remained tamed.
The US economy showed signs of a slowdown. After expanding by 4.4% on an annualised basis in the third quarter, it dropped to 0.5% in the fourth quarter. However, the weaker figure partly reflected the government slowdown, and first-quarter 2026 gross domestic product rebounded to 2.0%, with government spending recovering strongly. Job openings declined steadily through the period, with the non-farm payroll number for February, which showed 156,000 jobs lost, being the worst figure since the Covid years. US unemployment also picked up and hit 4.5% in November, the highest level for four years, before easing a little.
HSBC US Dollar Liquidity Fund, HSBC US Dollar ESG Liquidity Fund, HSBC US Treasury Liquidity FundDaily liquid assets in the HSBC US Dollar Liquidity Fund and the HSBC US Dollar ESG Liquidity Fund increased from 22% to 32%, ranging between a low of 19% and a high of 35%. Weekly liquid assets moved within a 39% 60% range, starting at 46% and ending at 4
days, starting at 41
days and finishing at 40 days.
The HSBC US Treasury Liquidity Fund strengthened its liquidity profile, with daily liquid assets rising from 24% to 40%. Weekly liquid assets increased slightly from 90% to 96%. WAL peaked at 84 days in May (from 83 days at the start) and then declined steadily to 50 days by period-end. WAM trended lower overall, moving from 50 days to 46 days.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORTTo the Board of Directors of HSBC Corporate Money Funds Limited Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of HSBC Corporate Money Funds Limited (comprised of Canadian Dollar Fund, Euro Fund, Sterling Fund, Sterling ESG Fund, US Dollar Fund, US Dollar ESG Fund and the US Treasury Fund) (the "Company"), which comprise the statements of assets and liabilities including the statements of net assets as of April 30, 2026 and the related statements of operations and changes in net assets for the year then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of Aprill 30, 2026 and the results of its operations for the year then ended in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Basis for opinionWe conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAS"). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the Company and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Responsibilities of management for the financial statementsManagement is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for one year after the date that the financial statements are available to be issued.
Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statementsOur objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements.
kpmg
In performing an audit in accordance with GAAS, we:
Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit.
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements.
Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period.
We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control related matters that we identified during the audit.
Other informationOur audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements as a whole. The other information in the annual report from page 1 to 10 is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not required part of the basic financial statements. Such information has not been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements, and accordingly, we do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on it.

- Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of presentation
Company meets the typical characteristics of an investment company and is therefore applying the accounting and reporting guidance under
Financial Services Investment
Companies.
The significant accounting and reporting policies adopted by the Company are as follows:
Investment transactions and income
Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date basis.
Valuation of investments
Investments are valued at fair value. Investments in money market funds are valued based on reported net asset value per share as provided by the administrators of the money market funds.
In accordance with U.S. GAAP, fair value is defined as the price that the Company would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Accounting guidelines for fair value measurements establishes a framework for measuring fair value using a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability. Inputs may be observable or unobservable and refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company s own assumptions about the inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. Each investment is assigned a level based upon the observability of the inputs which are significant to the overall valuation. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized below:
Level 1 observable prices and quoted prices in active markets for identical investments that the Company is able to access
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 Company s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)
The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurements falls in its entirety is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Investment in other Investment Funds are measured using net asset value as a practical expedient and are not categorized within the fair value hierarchy.
Allocation of profits and losses
All investment income, realized and unrealized gains and losses of each Fund are allocated to each class of shares outstanding on a daily basis in proportion to their interest in the net asset value of the Fund.
Interest income
Interest income is recorded on the accruals basis.
Expenses
The Company bears all operating expenses which are allocated between all the Funds in proportion to the respective net asset value of each Fund unless the expense is solely attributable to a specific Fund.
Use of estimates
Preparing financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions in determining the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, including the fair value of investments, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
- Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Foreign currency translation
Assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the base currency of each Fund are translated into the base currency at the rate prevailing at the reporting date. Transactions during the year in currencies other than the base currency have been translated at the rate of exchange prevailing on the respective date of the transaction.
Dividend income
Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date and is presented net of withholding tax.
Financial instruments
The fair values of securities of the Company's assets and liabilities which qualify as financial instruments under U.S. GAAP approximates the carrying amounts presented in the statement of assets and liabilities due to their short-term nature.
Capital redemption payable
Redemptions are recognized as liabilities when the amount requested in the redemption notices becomes fixed, which generally occurs on the last day of a fiscal quarter. As a result, redemptions paid after the end of the year, based on the NAV of the Company at year-end, are included in redemptions payable at April 30, 2026. Redemption notices received for which the dollar amount is not fixed remain in net assets until the net asset values used to determine the redemption and share amounts are determined. Redemptions are paid in cash. As at April 30, 2026 there were no redemptions paid after the end of the year, based on the NAV of the Company at year-end, included in redemptions payable.
New accounting pronouncements
There are no new accounting standards, amendments and interpretations to existing standards that are expected to have an impact on the financial statements of the Company.
- Cash, Bank Overdraft and Sweep Facility
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and deposit balances are held with the Bank. As at April 30, 2026, the Sterling Fund has a cash balance of GBP 209,181, the Sterling ESG Fund has a cash balance of GBP 1,101 and the US Treasury Fund has a cash balance of USD 39,400.
Bank overdraft
Under an agreement dated October 16, 2006 and further amended on December 17, 2010, October 11, 2021 and September 4, 2024, the Bank made a US Dollar uncommitted multicurrency overdraft facility available to the Company. The maximum amount that may be advanced is the lesser of USD 65,000,000 or 5% of the Net Value of Assets in Custody ("NVAC") of the Company, with an accompanying USD 500,000,000 daily settlement limit. Under the terms of the agreement, all assets of the Company are pledged as security against advances made by the Bank. The
As at April
30, 2026, US Dollar Fund has an overdraft of USD 1,307,441.
As of April 30, 2026 the Company also has access to various unutilized overdraft facilities across multiple currencies, which remain undrawn as of the reporting date. These facilities are available under the same agreement dated October 16, 2006, and are subject to the same terms and collateral arrangements.
- Cash, Bank Overdraft and Sweep Facility
Sweep facility
Certain corporate customers of the Bank are provided with a sweep facility to enable an automatic transfer of funds at the end of each business day to or from their current accounts to or from the Company. The sweep transactions result in overnight balances that are reflected as cash or overdraft balances being transferred to the Company. These balances are settled through the trading of shares in the Company on the next business day. Interest is earned from or paid to shareholders on these balances at a rate equal to the previous day's daily yield of the relevant Fund, so as not to affect the position of the shareholders of the Company who do not utilize the sweep facility. Interest income for the year resulting from sweep transactions for the Sterling Fund totaled GBP 8,493 and interest expense totaled GBP 6,560 These amounts have been netted and are included in other income. Interest income for the year resulting from sweep transactions for the Sterling ESG Fund totaled GBP 34,056 and interest expense totaled GBP 93. These amounts have been netted and are included in interest income. Interest income for the year resulting from sweep transactions for the US Dollar Fund totaled USD 88,733 and interest expense totaled USD 32,064. These amounts have been netted and are included in other income. Similarly, interest income for the year resulting from sweep transactions for the US Treasury Fund totaled USD 44,159 and interest expense totaled USD 5,091. These amounts have been netted and are included in interest income.

Under the terms of the Management Agreement dated May 24, 2023, the Manager is entitled to receive from the Company in respect of each Fund, a monthly management fee of up to 1% per annum of the average of the daily value of the net assets of each Fund during the month and to be reimbursed its out-of-pocket expenses.

Effective January 1, 2025, Bermuda enacted a 15% Corporate Income Tax ("CIT") applicable to entities that are part of a Multinational Enterprise
Act and determined that the Fund does not fall within its scope. Consequently, the CIT Act does not impact the statutory tax assurance granted to the Fund through March 31, 2035.

- Financial Instruments and Associated Risks Price Risk
Price risk arises primarily from uncertainty around the future prices of financial instruments held by the Company and represents the loss the
Company might incur through holding such instruments in the face of price movements. The Manager allocates the Company's portfolio of investments with a view to minimizing the risk associated with particular countries and industry sectors. Each Fund s overall market position is monitored on a daily basis by the Manager.
Currency RiskThe investments of each Fund are denominated in the related base currency. Therefore, the Company is not subject to significant currency risk.
Interest Rate RiskThe Company is exposed to interest rate risk to the extent that the fair value of the Company's financial instruments may fluctuate with movements in interest rates.
Liquidity RiskThe Company invests in certain sub-funds of HSBC Global Liquidity Funds Plc HSBC GLF ) which provide daily redemptions. The Company may invest in debt securities that are not publicly traded or for which there is no liquid market. The Company is exposed to liquidity risk to the extent that it is unable to realize its positions to meet liabilities and redemptions as they fall due. The Manager manages liquidity risk by maintaining sufficient liquid assets to meet liabilities and redemptions as they fall due.
Credit RiskFinancial assets that potentially expose the Company to credit risk consist primarily of cash, investments, interest and dividends receivable and accounts receivable. The extent of the Company's exposure to credit risk in respect of these financial assets approximates the carrying values as recorded in the statements of assets and liabilities. Credit risk is managed by dealing with reputable counterparties.
12. Financial Instruments and Associated Risks Investments in Other Investment FundsThe investments in other investment funds (the "investee funds") are valued using the net asset values provided by the underlying investment companies as a practical expedient. The Company applies the practical expedient to its investee funds on an investment-by-investment basis and consistently with the entire position in a particular investment, unless it is probable that the Company will sell a portion of its investee funds at an amount different from the NAV of the investment. The Company has the ability to liquidate its investments periodically depending on the provisions of the respective investee fund's offering documents
The investee funds in which the Company has invested utilize a variety of financial instruments in their trading strategies including equity and debt securities of both U.S. and foreign issuers, options, futures contracts, forward contracts and swap contracts, which may be denominated in various currencies. Several of these financial instruments contain varying degrees of off-balance sheet risk whereby changes in market values of the securities underlying the financial instruments may be in excess of the amounts recorded on each investee fund's balance sheet. However, due to the nature of the Company's interests in the investee funds, such risks are limited to the Company's capital balance in each investee fund.
