Money Market
Money Market investments are ways for governments and corporations to raise capital. These short-term investments (up to 12 months) have a fixed rate of return held to maturity. That means you’ll know how much your investment will yield at the end of your term. Plus, your funds remain liquid so you have easy access to your money. Money market investments are sold at a discount to the par (maturity) value. The difference between the discounted price and the par value amount is the interest received on the investment.
