Overview

Fund objective

MMKT aims to generate a yield (before fees and expenses) that exceeds the Bloomberg AusBond Bank Bill Index, paid monthly, from a portfolio of Australian dollar cash and short-term money market securities issued by investment grade entities.

Benefits

A compelling solution for your cash allocation

MMKT has been designed to be a core cash allocation in investment portfolios, providing enhanced yield from cash and money market securities, paid monthly, together with a high degree of capital stability.

Ready liquidity

MMKT offers daily access, and is traded on the ASX with T+2 settlement, meaning investors can obtain attractive income without needing to lock up their money for extended periods.

Past performance is not an indicator of future performance. Returns are calculated in Australian dollars using net asset value per unit at the start and end of the specified period and do not reflect brokerage or the bid ask spread that investors incur when buying and selling units on the ASX. Returns are after fund management costs, assume reinvestment of any distributions and do not take into account tax paid as an investor in the Fund. Returns for periods longer than one year are annualised. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance shown.
