Letter

to Our

Shareholders

March 6, 1995


Dear Shareholder:

               Volatility persisted in short-term fixed-income securities
               markets over the six months ended February 28, 1995, as interest
               rates continued to climb. The Federal Reserve Board maintained
               its restrictive monetary policy by raising short-term interest
               rates in November and again in February, which positioned the
   [PHOTO      federal funds rate at approximately 6 percent, and the discount
 Charles T.    rate at 5.25 percent.
   Bauer,        With the last interest rate increase, financial markets
 Chairman of   strengthened as economic indicators, though mixed, suggested a
 the Board of  slower rate of growth in the economy. Such evidence prompted
  the Fund,    Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan to provide encouraging
APPEARS HERE]  testimony before Congress in late February that the current
               condition of the economy--moderate, constructive growth with low
               unemployment and low inflation--was healthier than it had been in
               years. In addition, the Chairman told Congress that the central
               bank would be ready to loosen credit at the first sign of
               recession.
  Greenspan's remarks triggered a rally in stocks that drove equity markets to
record highs. Bonds also rallied, but the dollar fell. The dollar's persistent
weakness led some analysts to speculate that inflation remains a near-term
possibility, prompting renewed concerns that interest rates would have to rise
again in the coming months.

YOUR INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO

The Short-Term Investments Co. (STIC) Liquid Assets Portfolio consistently
maintained its strict investment discipline of purchasing securities of superior
credit quality. Liquid Assets Portfolio invests only in securities rated "First
Tier" as defined in Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940.
  Liquid Assets Portfolio took advantage of the rising interest rate
environment. Weighted average maturity was 19 days to capture attractive yields
available in taxable money market instruments such as quality commercial paper
and selected repurchase agreement securities. As a result, the yield on Liquid
Assets Portfolio was able to increase with short-term interest rates and
outperform similar funds tracked by IBC/Donoghue's Money Fund Averages(TM).
  As of February 28, 1995, the 30-day average yield of Liquid Assets Portfolio
was 5.99 percent compared to 5.77 percent for similar First-Tier institutional
funds reported in IBC/Donoghue's Money Fund Averages(TM). The seven-day yield
for Liquid Assets Portfolio was 6.02 percent as of February 28, 1995, and net
assets were $1.53 billion.

OUTLOOK FOR THE FUTURE

Leading economic indicators continue to suggest healthy economic conditions and
low inflation, and the economy is widely expected to slow in the second half of
1995. As a result, fixed-income securities have begun to exhibit more stability
across most maturity levels. The direction of the dollar remains a significant
uncertainty that could precipitate renewed inflation concerns and higher short-
term interest rates.
  AIM remains committed to the primary objectives of safety, liquidity, and
yield in institutional money fund management. As always, we are ready to respond
to your comments about this report and any questions you may have about your
Fund. Please call us at (800) 659-1005.

Respectfully submitted,

/s/ CHARLES T. BAUER

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
February 28, 1995
(Unaudited)
 
NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Short-Term Investments Co. (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 Maryland corporation consisting
of two different portfolios, each of which offers separate series of shares:
the Liquid Assets Portfolio and the Prime Portfolio, with the assets,
liabilities and operations of each portfolio accounted for separately.
Information presented in these financial statements pertains only to the Liquid
Assets Portfolio (the "Portfolio").
 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 - Expenses of the Fund which are not directly attributable to a
   specific portfolio are prorated among the portfolios to which the expense
   relates based on the relative net assets of each portfolio.

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 fee, paid monthly, with respect to the Portfolio at the annual rate
of 0.15% of the average daily net assets of the Portfolio.
 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. During the six months
ended February 28, 1995, AIM voluntarily waived fees of $405,551.
 The Portfolio, pursuant to a master administrative services agreement with
AIM, has agreed to reimburse AIM for certain costs incurred in providing
accounting and shareholder services to the Portfolio. During the six months
ended February 28, 1995, the Portfolio reimbursed AIM $25,597 for such
services. Effective September 16, 1994, A I M Institutional Fund Services, Inc.
("AIFS") became a transfer agent for the Portfolio and was reimbursed $24,426
for such services during the period ending February 28, 1995. Certain officers
and directors of the Fund are officers and directors of AIM, AIFS and Fund
Management Company, the Portfolio's distributor.
 The Portfolio paid legal fees of $1,317 for services rendered by Reid & Priest
as counsel to the Fund's directors. Effective September 1994, the firm of
Kramer, Levin, Naftalis, Nesser, Kamin & Frankel was appointed as counsel to
the Board of Directors. The Portfolio paid legal fees of $1,291 for services
rendered by that firm as counsel. A member of that firm is a director of the
Fund and, prior to September 1994, was a member of Reid & Priest.
 
NOTE 3 - DIRECTORS' FEES
 
Directors' fees represent remuneration paid or accrued to each director who is
not an "interested person" of the Fund. The Fund invests directors' fees, if so
elected by a director, in mutual fund shares in accordance with a deferred
compensation plan.
