Virginia Investment Pool

The Virginia Investment Pool Trust Fund (VIP) was established to provide political subdivisions of the Commonwealth of Virginia an investment vehicle to pool their funds and to invest  under the direction and daily supervision of a professional fund manager. VIP was developed in 2013 by local Treasurers and investment officers with the sponsorship of the Virginia Association of Counties and the Virginia Municipal League.

VIP offers two investment portfolios:

Stable NAV Liquidity Pool

The Stable NAV Liquidity Pool, rated AAAm by Standard & Poor’s (S&P), offers a stable net asset value, daily liquidity and a competitive yield. The Stable NAV Liquidity Pool is ideal for managing operating funds requiring immediate access. An online interface enables participants to connect their Liquidity Pool accounts to external bank accounts for convenient access.
