[PHOTO of The Treasury Portfolio of Short-Term Investments Trust benefited from
Charles T. Bauer, stabilizing economic conditions during the fiscal year ended August 31, 1995.
LETTER Chairman of the It was a year marked by contrast. Early in 1995, the Federal Reserve Board
Board of the Fund, completed a yearlong policy of tightening interest rates to defuse threatening
TO OUR APPEARS HERE] inflationary pressures. Robust economic growth at the 5.1% annualized rate
logged in the fourth quarter of 1994 was considered unsustainable by
most analysts.
SHAREHOLDERS Following a noninflationary 2.7% annualized rate during 1995's
first quarter, economic growth slowed during the second quarter to an annual rate of
just 1.3%. In July, the Federal Reserve turned recession fighter and eased short-term interest rates by 0.25%.
At its August meeting, the Federal Reserve left rates unchanged. Federal Reserve vice chairman Alan Blinder
recently told The Wall Street Journal, "The risk of recession now looks small."
YOUR INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO
We are pleased to note that in this changing environment, Treasury Portfolio maintained its AAAm credit quality
rating, the highest given by Standard & Poor's Corporation, a widely known credit rating agency. The AAAm rating
is historical and is based on annual analysis of the portfolio's credit quality, composition, management, and
weekly portfolio review.
While the Federal Reserve pursued a tight money policy, Treasury Portfolio managers maintained a relatively
short weighted average maturity; during December, for example, the Fund's weighted average maturity averaged 11
days. As short-term rates stayed unchanged from February until the Federal Reserve lowered rates on July 6,
managers gradually extended weighted average maturity to 32 days at the close of the fiscal year. This strategy
helped the average monthly yield of the Institutional Class of Treasury Portfolio to rise from 4.27% as of August
31, 1994, to 5.72% as of August 31, 1995, excluding a short-term capital gain distributed during August. At
fiscal year-end, net assets of the Institutional Class were $2.67 billion, up from $2.45 billion a year earlier.
OUTLOOK FOR THE FUTURE
As of fiscal year end, inflation seemed firmly under control. Economic signals were mixed but generally
encouraging. The Federal Reserve prepared a sanguine economic review in advance of its September 26 meeting, at
which the central bank's board left the federal funds rate unchanged. Such a relatively optimistic outlook allows
Treasury Portfolio to maintain a long weighted average maturity that seeks to maximize available yield without
sacrificing liquidity or exposing the Fund to additional net asset value risk. As with any money market fund, an
investment in Treasury Portfolio is neither insured nor guaranteed by the U.S. government, and there can be no
assurance the Fund will be able to maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per share. At the close of the
fiscal year, yields on money market funds such as Treasury Portfolio remained relatively attractive compared to
other short-term investments.
We are pleased to send you this report concerning your Fund. AIM is committed to customer
service and an investment objective that seeks to maximize current income while preserving capital and
maintaining liquidity. As ever, we are ready to respond to your comments about this report and to any questions
you may have. Please contact one of our representatives at 800-659-1005.
Respectfully submitted,
/s/ Charles T. Bauer

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
August 31, 1995
NOTE 1-SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Short-Term Investments Trust (the "Fund") is registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end series, diversified management
investment company. The Fund is organized as a Delaware business trust
consisting of two different portfolios, each of which offers separate series of
shares: the Treasury Portfolio and the Treasury TaxAdvantage Portfolio.
Information presented in these financial statements pertains only to the
Treasury Portfolio (the "Portfolio"), with assets, liabilities and operations
of each portfolio being accounted for separately. The Portfolio consists of
four different classes of shares: the Institutional Class, the Private
Investment Class, the Personal Investment Class, and the Cash Management Class.
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by
the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements.
A. Security Valuations - The Portfolio invests only in securities which have
maturities of 397 days or less. The securities are valued on the basis of
amortized cost which approximates market value. This method values a
security at its cost on the date of purchase and thereafter assumes a
constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium.
B. Securities Transactions, Investment Income and Distributions - Securities
transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains or
losses are computed on the basis of specific identification of the
securities sold. Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premiums and
discounts on investments, is accrued daily. Dividends to shareholders are
declared daily and are paid on the first business day of the following
month.
C. Federal Income Taxes - The Portfolio intends to comply with the requirements
of the Internal Revenue Code necessary to qualify as a regulated investment
company and, as such, will not be subject to federal income taxes on
otherwise taxable income (including net realized capital gains) which is
distributed to shareholders. Therefore, no provision for federal income
taxes is recorded in the financial statements.
D. Expenses - Operating expenses directly attributable to a class of shares are
charged to that class' operations. Expenses which are applicable to more
than one class, e.g., advisory fees, are allocated among them.
NOTE 2-ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Fund has entered into a master investment advisory agreement with A I M
Advisors, Inc. ("AIM"). Under the terms of the master advisory agreement, AIM
receives a monthly fee with respect to the Portfolio calculated by applying a
monthly rate, based upon the following annual rates, to the average daily net

AIM will, if necessary, reduce its fee for any fiscal year to the extent
required so that the amount of ordinary expenses of the Portfolio (excluding
interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses) paid or
incurred by the Portfolio for such fiscal year does not exceed the applicable
expense limitations imposed by the state securities regulations in any state in
which the Portfolio's shares are qualified for sale. AIM voluntarily reimbursed
expenses of $47,000 on the Treasury Portfolio Personal Investment Class during
the year ended August 31, 1995.
The Portfolio, pursuant to a master administrative services agreement with
AIM, has agreed to reimburse AIM for certain costs incurred in providing
accounting services to the Portfolio. During the year ended August 31, 1995,
the Portfolio reimbursed AIM $135,387 for such services. During the year ended
August 31, 1995, the Portfolio paid A I M Institutional Fund Services, Inc.
("AIFS") $114,179 for shareholder and transfer agency services. Effective July
1, 1995, AIFS became the exclusive transfer agent of the Portfolio.
Under the terms of a master distribution agreement between Fund Management
Company ("FMC") and the Fund, FMC acts as the exclusive distributor of the
Fund's shares. The Fund has adopted a master distribution plan (the "Plan")
pursuant to
8
<PAGE>
Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act with respect to the Private Investment Class,
Personal Investment Class and the Cash Management Class of the Portfolio. The
Plan provides that the Treasury Portfolio's Private Investment Class, Personal
Investment Class and Cash Management Class may pay up to a 0.50%, 0.75% and
0.10%, respectively, maximum annual rate of the average daily net assets
attributable to such class. Of this amount, the Fund may pay an asset-based
sales charge to FMC and the Fund may pay a service fee of (a) 0.25% of the
average daily net assets of each of the Private Investment Class and the
Personal Investment Class and (b) 0.10% of the average daily net assets of the
Cash Management Class, to selected banks, broker-dealers and other financial
institutions who offer continuing personal shareholder services to their
customers who purchase and own shares of the Private Investment Class, the
Personal Investment Class or the Cash Management Class. Any amounts not paid as
a service fee under such Plan would constitute an asset-based sales charge.
During the year ended August 31, 1995, the Treasury Portfolio Private
Investment Class, the Treasury Portfolio Personal Investment Class and the
Treasury Portfolio Cash Management Class accrued for compensation to FMC
amounts of $1,244,628, $448,840 and $58,430, respectively, under the Plan.
Certain officers and trustees of the Trust are officers of AIM, FMC and AIFS.
The Portfolio paid legal fees of $9,818 for the year ended August 31, 1995 for
services rendered by Reid & Priest as counsel to the Board of Trustees. In
September 1994, Kramer, Levin, Naftalis, Nessen, Kamin & Frankel was appointed
as counsel to the Board of Trustees and the Portfolio paid legal fees of $8,687
for services rendered by that firm as counsel to the Board of Trustees. A
trustee of the Trust was a member of the firm of Reid & Priest until September
1994, when he became a member of Kramer, Levin, Naftalis, Nessen, Kamin &
Frankel.
NOTE 3-TRUSTEES' FEES
Trustees' fees represent remuneration paid or accrued to each trustee who is
not an "interested person" of AIM. The Fund invests trustees' fees, if so
elected by a trustee, in mutual fund shares in accordance with a deferred
compensation plan.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders
Short-Term Investments Trust:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of the
Treasury Portfolio (a series portfolio of Short-Term Investments Trust),
including the schedule of investments, as of August 31, 1995, and the related
statement of operations for the year then ended, the statement of changes in
net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, and the
financial highlights for each of the years in the ten-year 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 generally accepted auditing
standards. 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. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of
August 31, 1995 by correspondence with the custodian. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
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 the
Treasury Portfolio as of August 31, 1995, the results of its operations for the
year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the years in the
two-year period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the years
in the ten-year period then ended, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
