Understanding money market fund: Money market fund, which invests only in highly liquid instruments such as cash, cash equivalent securities and high credit rating debt-based securities with a short-term maturity, offer high liquidity with a very low level of risk.

Note that mutual funds have remained relatively unknown as an investible asset class in Nigeria due to the lack of knowledge about what they are and how they work. Other factors that have made it difficult for investors to assess its performance are- lack of transparency, valuation, fees, and holdings.

As long as these constraining issues remain unresolved, the growth of mutual funds in Nigeria will continue at a snail’s speed, if not slower.
