DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE (Unaudited)

For the period from December 1, 2019 through November 30, 2020, as provided by Thomas Riordan, Portfolio Manager

Market and Fund Performance Overview

For the 12-month period ended November 30, 2020, Dreyfus Treasury and Agency Liquidity Money Market Fund produced a yield of 0.45%. Taking into account the effects of compounding, the fund produced an effective yield of 0.45%.¹

Yields of short-term, fixed-income securities declined over the reporting period, as the Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) kept short-term interest rates low and indicated that rates were unlikely to be increased in the near term.

The Fund’s Investment Approach

The fund seeks as high a level of current income as is consistent with the preservation of capital and the maintenance of liquidity. The fund pursues its investment objective by investing only in U.S. Treasury securities, repurchase agreements collateralized solely by U.S. Treasury securities or securities issued by U.S. government agencies that are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government, and cash. The fund is a money market fund subject to the maturity, quality, liquidity and diversification requirements of Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and seeks to maintain a stable share price of $1.00.

The fund is a “government money market fund,” as that term is defined in Rule 2a-7, and as such is required to invest at least 99.5% of its total assets in securities issued or guaranteed as to principal and interest by the U.S. government or its agencies or instrumentalities, repurchase agreements collateralized solely by cash and/or government securities, and cash. The fund normally invests at least 80% of its net assets in U.S. Treasury securities and repurchase agreements collateralized solely by U.S. Treasury securities or securities issued by U.S. government agencies that are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government (i.e., under normal circumstances, the fund will not invest more than 20% of its net assets in cash or repurchase agreements collateralized by cash), and typically invests exclusively in such securities.

Economy Continues to Recover from COVID-19 Pandemic

As global economic growth became increasingly sluggish in 2019, investors became concerned it would threaten U.S. business activity, and late in the year, the Fed implemented three rate reductions. These reductions, which occurred prior to the reporting period, brought the federal funds rate to a range of 1.50%–1.75%.

Other major central banks also shifted to, or continued, stimulative policies. The European Central Bank reduced short-term interest rates and reimplemented quantitative easing, while the Bank of Japan remained accommodative, and China continued to add economic stimulus. Signs of improvement appeared toward the end of 2019, and geopolitical concerns also waned somewhat.

The U.S. economy experienced steady growth in 2019, but with the emergence of COVID-19 early in 2020, the global and the U.S. economies contracted sharply. U.S. GDP shrank by -5.0% in the first quarter of 2020 and by -31.4% in the second quarter of 2020.

The labor market remained healthy until March 2020, when 1.4 million jobs were lost. In April 2020, job losses continued, amounting to 20.8 million and causing the unemployment rate to jump to 14.7%.

In response to the pandemic, Congress acted quickly, passing the $2 trillion Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act. This legislation provided payments to qualified citizens and included the Paycheck Protection Program that enabled small businesses to keep their workers employed or hire them back. It also allowed businesses to use these funds to cover overhead costs.

The Fed also acted to support the economy. In March 2020, it made emergency cuts, reducing the federal funds target to 0.00%-0.25%. The CARES Act also allocated $500 billion to the Fed, mostly for the purchase of securities, and the Fed began purchasing corporate bonds and fixed-income, exchange-traded funds. In April 2020, the Fed took additional actions to support the economy and markets, including an expansion of the Paycheck Protection Program Liquidity Facility, which was designed to ease lending to small businesses.

The Fed also intervened in money markets. In addition to restarting the bond-buying program known as quantitative easing, in which it buys Treasuries and mortgage-backed securities, the Fed relaunched the Commercial Paper Funding Facility (CPFF). This involves direct purchases of commercial paper to ease pressures on large corporations that rely on this market to fund operations.

In response to these policy measures, economic activity in the U.S. began to improve. Job creation surged in May 2020, with new jobs rising by more than 2.7 million, reducing the unemployment rate from 14.7% to 13.3%. The economy continued to add new jobs in June and July 2020, with new positions totaling 4.8 million and 1.8 million, respectively. In September 2020, job creation amounted to only 711,000, but unemployment continued to decline, falling to 7.9%, far below the high of 14.7% hit in April 2020. In November 2020, the jobless rate fell further, hitting 6.7%.

Housing data also improved. In July 2020, housing starts, an indicator of future economic activity, soared by 17.5% over the June 2020 figure, and while housing starts in August 2020 declined month over month, they rose again in September, October and November 2020. More broadly, the economy rebounded strongly in the third quarter of 2020, rising 33.1%.

Inflation remained subdued during most of the reporting period. The core personal consumption expenditure (PCE) price index, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, remained well below the Fed’s 2.0% target until the third quarter of 2020, when it rose to 3.5%.

Low Rates Expected until 2023

The COVID-19 virus and the subsequent economic shutdown led to a freezing up of the money markets, but Fed programs designed to reliquify the financial markets, including the Money Market Liquidity Facility, restored calm. The economy has begun to recover, and

DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE (Unaudited) (continued)

further recovery is expected in 2021, but the Fed is unlikely to raise short-term interest rates until 2023. As always, we have retained our longstanding focus on quality and liquidity.

¹Effective yield is based upon dividends declared daily and reinvested monthly. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Yields fluctuate. Yields provided for the fund reflect the absorption of certain fund expenses by BNY Mellon Investment Adviser, Inc. pursuant to an undertaking in effect that may be extended, terminated, or modified at any time. Had these expenses not been absorbed, fund yields would have been lower and in some cases, seven-day yields during the reporting period would have been negative absent the expense absorption.

You could lose money by investing in a money market fund. Although the fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it cannot guarantee it will do so. An investment in the fund is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. The BNY Mellon Investment Adviser, Inc. has no legal obligation to provide financial support to the fund, and you should not expect that BNY Mellon Investment Adviser, Inc. will provide financial support to the fund at any time.

Although the fund’s board has no current intention to impose a fee upon the sale of shares or temporarily suspend redemptions if the fund’s liquidity falls below certain levels, the board reserves the ability to do so after providing at least 60 days’ prior written notice to shareholders.

Recent market risks include pandemic risks related to COVID-19. The effects of COVID-19 have contributed to increased volatility in global markets and will likely affect certain countries, companies, industries and market sectors more dramatically than others. To the extent the fund may overweight its investments in certain countries, companies, industries or market sectors, such positions will increase the fund’s exposure to risk of loss from adverse developments affecting those countries, companies, industries or sectors.

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 redemption 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 Dreyfus Treasury and Agency Liquidity Money Market Fund from June 1, 2020 to November 30, 2020. It also shows how much a $1,000 investment would be worth at the close of the period, assuming actual returns and expenses.

Using the SEC’s method to compare expenses

The Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) has established guidelines to help investors assess fund expenses. Per these guidelines, the table below shows your fund’s expenses based on a $1,000 investment, assuming a hypothetical 5% annualized return. You can use this information to compare the ongoing expenses (but not transaction expenses or total cost) of investing in the fund with those of other funds. All mutual fund shareholder reports will provide this information to help you make this comparison. Please note that you cannot use this information to estimate your actual ending account balance and expenses paid during the period.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

The following table describes the performance for the fiscal periods indicated. Net asset value total return is calculated assuming an initial investment made at the net asset value at the beginning of the period, reinvestment of all dividends and distributions at net asset value during the period, and redemption at net asset value on the last day of the period. Net asset value total return includes adjustments in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and as such, the net asset value for financial reporting purposes and the returns based upon those net asset values may differ from the net asset value and returns for shareholder transactions. These figures have been derived from the fund’s financial statements.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1—Significant Accounting Policies:

Dreyfus Treasury and Agency Liquidity Money Market Fund (the “fund”) is the sole series of Dreyfus Institutional Liquidity Funds (the “Company”), which is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as a diversified open-end management investment company. The fund’s investment objective is to seek as high a level of current income as is consistent with the preservation of capital and the maintenance of liquidity. The fund is managed by Dreyfus Cash Investment Strategies, a division of BNY Mellon Investment Adviser, Inc. (the “Adviser”), the fund’s investment adviser and a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation (“BNY Mellon”). BNY Mellon Securities Corporation (the “Distributor”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Adviser, is the distributor of the fund’s shares, which are sold to the public without a sales charge.

The fund operates as a “government money market fund” as that term is defined in Rule 2a-7 under the Act. It is the fund’s policy to maintain a constant net asset value (“NAV”) per share of $1.00 and the fund has adopted certain investment, portfolio valuation and dividend and distribution policies to enable it to do so. There is no assurance, however, that the fund will be able to maintain a constant NAV 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 is an investment company and applies the accounting and reporting guidance of the FASB ASC Topic 946 Financial Services-Investment Companies. 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 fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown. The fund does 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 under the Act. If amortized cost is determined not to approximate fair market value, the fair value of the portfolio securities will be determined by procedures established by and

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

under the general oversight of the Company’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”).

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 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 within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The following is a summary of the inputs used as of November 30, 2020 in valuing the fund’s investments:


	Level 1 - Unadjusted Quoted Prices		Level 2 - Other Significant Observable Inputs	Level 3 - Significant Unobservable Inputs	Total
Assets ($)
Investments in Securities:^†
Short-Term Investments		–	10,338,508,652	–	10,338,508,652

^†See Statement of Investments for additional detailed categorizations, if any.

(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.

The fund may enter into repurchase agreements with financial institutions, deemed to be creditworthy by the Adviser, subject to the seller’s agreement to repurchase and the fund’s agreement to resell such securities at a mutually agreed upon price. Pursuant to the terms of the repurchase agreement, such securities must have an aggregate market value greater than or equal to the terms of 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 fund will require the seller to deposit additional collateral by the next business day. If the request for additional collateral is not met, or the seller defaults on its repurchase obligation, the fund maintains its right to sell the underlying securities at market value and may claim any resulting loss against the seller. The collateral is held on behalf of the fund by the tri-party administrator with respect to any tri-party agreement. The fund may also jointly enter into one or more repurchase agreements with other funds managed by the Adviser in accordance with an exemptive order granted by the SEC pursuant to section 17(d) and Rule 17d-1 under the Act. Any joint repurchase agreements must be collateralized fully by U.S. Government securities.

(c) Risk: Certain events particular to the industries in which the fund’s investments conduct their operations, as well as general economic, political and public health conditions, may have a significant negative impact on the investee’s operations and profitability. In addition, turbulence in financial markets and reduced liquidity in equity, credit and/or fixed income markets may negatively affect many issuers, which could adversely affect the fund. Global economies and financial markets are becoming increasingly interconnected, and conditions and events in one country, region or financial market may adversely impact issuers in a different

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

country, region or financial market. These risks may be magnified if certain events or developments adversely interrupt the global supply chain; in these and other circumstances, such risks might affect companies world-wide. Recent examples include pandemic risks related to COVID-19 and aggressive measures taken world-wide in response by governments, including closing borders, restricting international and domestic travel, and the imposition of prolonged quarantines of large populations, and by businesses, including changes to operations and reducing staff. To the extent the fund may overweight its investments in certain countries, companies, industries or market sectors, such positions will increase the fund’s exposure to risk of loss from adverse developments affecting those countries, companies, industries or sectors.

(d) Dividends and distributions to shareholders: It is the policy of the fund to declare dividends daily from investment income-net. Such dividends are paid monthly. Dividends from net realized capital gains, if any, are normally declared and paid annually, but the 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 the fund not to distribute such gains.

(e) Federal income taxes: It is the policy of the 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 and net realized capital gain sufficient to relieve it from substantially all federal income and excise taxes.

As of and during the period ended November 30, 2020, the fund did not have any liabilities for any uncertain tax positions. The fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to uncertain tax positions as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the period ended November 30, 2020, the fund did not incur any interest or penalties.

Each tax year in the three-year period ended November 30, 2020 remains subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state taxing authorities.

At November 30, 2020, the components of accumulated earnings (loss) on a tax basis were substantially the same as for financial reporting purposes.

The tax character of distributions paid to shareholders during the fiscal periods ended November 30, 2020 and November 30, 2019 were all ordinary income.

At November 30, 2020, the cost of investments for federal income tax purposes was substantially the same as the cost for financial reporting purposes (see the Statement of Investments).

(f) New Accounting Pronouncements: In March 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)-Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (“ASU 2020-04”), which provides optional, temporary relief with respect to the financial reporting of contracts subject to certain types of modifications due to the planned discontinuation of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and other interbank offered rates as of the end of 2021. The temporary relief provided by ASU 2020-04 is effective for certain reference rate-related contract modifications that occur during the period from March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. Management is evaluating the impact of ASU 2020-04 on the fund’s investments, derivatives, debt and other contracts that will undergo reference rate-related modifications as a result of the reference rate reform. Management is also currently actively working with other financial institutions and counterparties to modify contracts as required by applicable regulation and within the regulatory deadlines.

NOTE 2—Management Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates:

(a) Pursuant to a management agreement with the Adviser, the management fee is computed at the annual rate of .08% of the value of the fund’s average daily net assets and is payable monthly.

The Adviser has undertaken to waive receipt of the management fee and/or reimburse operating expenses in order to facilitate a daily yield at or above a certain level which may change from time to time. This undertaking is voluntary and not contractual, and may be terminated at any time. The reduction in expenses, pursuant to the undertaking, amounted to $452,557 during the period ended November 30, 2020.

(b) The fund has an arrangement with the transfer agent whereby the fund may receive earnings credits when positive cash balances are maintained, which are used to offset transfer agency fees. For financial reporting purposes, the fund includes net earnings credits, if any, as shareholder servicing costs in the Statement of Operations.

The fund has an arrangement with the custodian whereby the fund will receive interest income or be charged an overdraft fees when cash balances are maintained. For financial reporting purposes, the fund includes this interest income and overdraft fees, if any, as interest income in the Statement of Operations.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

The fund compensates BNY Mellon Transfer, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Adviser, under a transfer agency agreement for providing transfer agency and cash management services inclusive of earnings credits, if any, for the fund. The majority of transfer agency fees are comprised of amounts paid on a per account basis, while cash management fees are related to fund subscriptions and redemptions. During the period ended November 30, 2020, the fund was charged $69 for transfer agency services offset of any earnings credits, if any. These fees are included in Shareholder servicing costs in the Statement of Operations.

The fund compensates The Bank of New York Mellon, a subsidiary of BNY Mellon and an affiliate of the Adviser, under a custody agreement for providing custodial services for the fund. These fees are determined based on net assets, geographic region and transaction activity. During the period ended November 30, 2020, the fund was charged $114,359 pursuant to the custody agreement.

During the period ended November 30, 2020, the fund was charged $14,124 for services performed by the Chief Compliance Officer and his staff. These fees are included in Chief Compliance Officer fees in the Statement of Operations.

The components of “Due to BNY Mellon Investment Adviser, Inc. and affiliates” in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities consist of: management fees of $617,926, custodian fees of $60,324, Chief Compliance Officer fees of $1,935 and transfer agency fees of $20, which are offset against an expense reimbursement currently in effect in the amount of $168,563.

(c) Each Board member also serves as a Board member of other funds in the BNY Mellon Family of Funds complex. Annual retainer fees and attendance fees are allocated to each fund based on net assets.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders and the Board of Trustees of Dreyfus Treasury and Agency Liquidity Money Market Fund

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Dreyfus Treasury and Agency Liquidity Money Market Fund (the “Fund”) (the sole fund constituting Dreyfus Institutional Liquidity Funds), including the statement of investments, as of November 30, 2020, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the two years in the period then ended and the period from December 18, 2017 (commencement of operations) through November 30, 2018 and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund (the sole fund constituting Dreyfus Institutional Liquidity Funds) at November 30, 2020, 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 its financial highlights for each of the two years in the period then ended and the period from December 18, 2017 (commencement of operations) through November 30, 2018, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Fund in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, 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.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of November 30, 2020, by correspondence with the custodian and others or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from others were not received. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the auditor of one or more investment companies in the BNY Mellon Family of Funds since at least 1957, but we are unable to determine the specific year.
