whats happening with MMF buana ?
Guchuki Kahome explained this way:
Rates are coming down because the rates of the underlying assets are also going down.

Money Market funds invest in T-bills, Fixed deposits, demand deposits, call deposits, commercial paper, etc

With the Central Bank cutting interest rates, and even more rate cuts expected, the rates of the above underlying assets have been declining as well.

There should be no panic as this is normal

MMF are supposed to track interest rates.

The sole purpose of a MMF is to give you a return above the inflation rate.

Even with rates coming down, that will still be achievable.

It will still be better to save your money in a MMF than in a bank savings or fixed deposit account.

Ndio maana a diversified portfolio is key.
