Discussion in a nutshell

Stability and liquidity in uncertain times: MMFs provide quick access to cash without penalties while preserving capital – a crucial advantage in volatile markets.
Consistent returns in a low-rate environment: MMFs aim to match overnight index returns demonstrating resilience in the face of tighter monetary policies.
A strategic tool for investors: Whether used to park cash or as a core part of an allocation, MMFs have become essential in every investor’s toolbox.
How we are innovating in this space: Exploration of tokenization and partnerships with instant payment solutions platforms that are transforming cash management practices.
Responsible Investing: We remain deeply committed to integrating our ESG criteria into our MMF strategy, addressing the urgency of transition.

MMFs are essential to every investor's portfolio, supporting daily operations and strategic cash management. They offer unmatched flexibility and efficiency, allowing investors to respond quickly to market changes and optimise their financial strategies while enhancing liquidity.
