Beeron:
In a simple way to make you understand.

Thinking of Tbills as you borrowing the government money but can choose the duration for which you want to borrow the government usually (3 month, 6 month and 1 year)

However, Think of MMF as you giving a professional fund manager who help people invest their money — you and other people like you willing to invest, give the fund manager your money then the fund manager will pool all money together and buy short term investment like that same Treasury bills aforementioned (Not only Treasury bill though), now that's the reason people prefer MMF because a fund manager will invest more in other investments you literally cannot invest in by yourself because of little capital, for example commercial paper.


Do you understand now?
Yes I understand, thank you

From your experience, which is better to invest in with capital of 10m

When considering capital security and better profit %

First, what is your age bracket?

Are you a family man?

Do you still have a day job or you need frequent returns from this investment to get by?

The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has reduced the Monetary Policy Rate (MPR) by 50 basis points to 26.5% from 27%.

Crossblueart:

Yes the 50 basis point reduction of the Monetary Policy Rate (MPR) to 26.5% by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) on February 24, 2026, will likely reduce yields on money market funds. As the MPR directly influences short-term interest rates and treasury bills, this rate cut will cause returns on these funds to decrease over time.


Key Implications for Money Market Funds:
Lower Yields: The primary impact is a reduction in the income generated by money market funds, as their underlying assets (short-term instruments like Treasury Bills) will yield lower interest rates.
Reduced Interest Income: Investors in these funds may see a lower return on investment in the coming months.
Rate Correlation: Money market funds typically align with the CBN's policy rate, meaning the 50 bps reduction will likely lead to a corresponding adjustment in fund yields.
Marginal Reduction:The cut is expected to influence lending rates and overall liquidity, as the CBN looks to ease monetary conditions following easing inflation.

my Observation for a while

There are times some fund managers don't update your interest on time. They either do it late the next day or they allow it accumulate like 2 or 3 or more days and guess what, most times when they finally pay the backLog, it's rarely complete. Of course you can't even know what rate they used since it wasn't sent as at when due.

That means they could get away giving you interest of 20% even when they advertised 24.5%

Would suggest you guys randomly take daily read of your accrued interests and when they delay, reach out to them. You need not do so everyday. Pick a week and ensure the whole of that week, they don't skip any and what's paid correlates with what's expected going by current interest rate.

Another lazy shortCut is to note down the current amount earned at end of the week so by the end of the next week, you do your calculation to know if the figures are what's expected. Even if it flunctuates between 20.76% and 20% , the figure should still align.

You need be sure you're not being deceived with high interest rates.

They truely have no reasonable excuse for not being able to automate updating customer's interests on daily basis EXCEPT they wanna say they need a couple of hours or days to get the interest rate to use.

I won't mention name as it's not necessary

Na everything i dey chook hands oo 😁😁. I expect it to bounce back tommorow actually. A rate cut is good for equity.

The main issue is likely the series of memo NGX released on some stocks. People may be trying to dump stocks not already suspended

True. Stanbic does magic sometimes, it would favour me or I would be at a disadvantage

The reason I like the cowry trustbanc is the clarity in the dailylog. You don't need to stress with calculations at all. It's just sad that newbies can't join via cowry again

ASI is tracking all stocks. There were still greens on some stocks.

For equity the hit won't be a lot depending on your fund manager though. The greens equity has supplied in weeks b4 now can withstand a week's red easily.

Agreed. My fund managers weren't impacted actually. I had an uptick in value despite the fall in ASI. Just waiting for the dividends rain in Apr-June
