This includes money market funds, offshore liquidity funds, institutional separate accounts and stable value products.

"To leverage Dreyfus' historical strengths in money market and municipal cash products and Standish's reputation as a short duration fixed income manager, we have decided to combine the previously separate investment management, credit research and distribution functions of these firms under one business that will market and service the full array of cash products, from money market to enhanced cash to short duration funds," said Ronald P.
