Most Kenyans save money. Few make their savings earn for them.
A Money Market Fund (MMF) is one of the simplest ways to put your money to work.
Instead of leaving your cash in a regular savings account, you invest in a professionally managed fund that places money in low-risk investments such as Treasury Bills, government securities, fixed deposits, and commercial papers.
Here's how it works💹
• You invest any amount, depending on the fund's minimum requirement.
• Your money is pooled with other investors.
• Professional fund managers invest it.
• The returns earned are shared among investors based on their investment.
Why many investors choose MMFs:
• Low risk compared to stocks and many other investments.
• Daily interest helps your money grow steadily.
• Easy access to your money when needed, subject to the fund's terms.
• Start with a relatively small amount.
• Managed by licensed investment professionals
Like every investment, MMFs are not risk-free. Returns are not guaranteed and fluctuate with interest rates.
Even so, they are generally considered lower risk than shares and many other investment options.
