Slow growth. You’re better off converting that money to naira and converting back later on especially as there is no imminent threat of devaluation.

I made same mistake for years and it stunted my growth. YTD alone i’ve made more from my naira MMF that i did in 3 years or so with my dollar MMF.

Sometimes, you can try to tilt your message towards selling the best deal for your audience and not just the best product or best company to invest with. I guess that’s the premise of welzyj2 ‘s argument. Otherwise, you’re a solid and genuine fellow

Good morning house
I want to start my mmf journey and I want to go with a good bank to start or any other applicable institution

I don’t mind splitting into two or 3 places
So I am asking my seniors here
Which do you highly recommended
Thank you
Re: Mutual Funds by AncestralPowers: 10:36am On Apr 23
You're very correct 💯 I did dollar mutual fund for about 2 years as well, I regretted why I did it.. it is a stagnated investment, invest in Naira and get maximum returns on your funds, you can always convert naira to any foreign currency whenever you need it..

Dollar mutual fund na bad market, forget about that high rate you are seeing on dollar mutual fund.

Don't mind bad speculations against Naira, or fear devaluation, investing in Naira is simply the best.

Which ever two u decide to choose, make sure first ally myinvestar mmf is part of it. I have been using them for sometime now & they have been good.
Re: Mutual Funds by Coolis: 8:31am On Apr 24
This is where @Creditalert is useful with his displays of top performing MMF managers/companies, then he started derailing and some of us blocked reading from him.
But l guess the order of top performing MMF companies will still be
STL, TRUSTBANC and the FIRST ALLY. Not promoting any one ooo. I 'll check the 3 out and make my decision if l were you.

Thanks for your response but why is it like that ?
It wasnt this bad in the past.

Infact I would get value the very same day even if I requested for withdrawal after 12pm.

Are they distressed ?

Please let me know if its the time to move my funds out cos my whole life savings is with them.

Thanks.

Are people still using Piggyvest? I think they lost their edge.

A lot of people still use them
Their rate is better than tbills at the moment

May I ask you? Yearly roi for mutual funds is it better than piggy vest ? I know the rate fluctuates but based on let’s say last year was did mutual funds do better than piggy vest

Piggyvest has better interest rate but mmf has flexibility of withdrawing anytime (after first 1 month).

I asked same question many years ago, while trying to find the best investment for my money. Here is what you must know, both treasury bill and mutual funds are very okay, treasury bill is good for those with instant gratification mentality or with little patience to see their money grow...

But mutual fund is far far better on a long term basis or when calculating yearly return on investment.. Mutual fund is a great way to accummulate wealth, if only you are the patient kind of person...

Despite both being low risk. One of the reasons most investors start investments with TB/Bond is b/c it is backed by the govt- this gives confident assurance that nothing can happen to your cash except the country collapse

I see TB and Fed Govt Bond as lowest of the lowest risk investment 😄

To be honest I have no problem with leaving the money for a year without touching it
I als have my emergency funds set aside
I am just trying to see if mmf will give me more returns on my investment at the end of the year or mutual will do better
I am fine with the risk for tbills, piggyvest or even mutual funds
Just trying to pick the best choice in terms on returns

While other fund managers are at almost 20% with flexibility on withdrawals.
Re: Mutual Funds by AncestralPowers: 6:02pm On Apr 25
Please go for mutual fund for maximum returns.. Compounding your interest quarterly will do the magic, and a financial miracle by year-end, particularly when your invested fund is huge, far better than treasury bills. I so much like it when ladies are concerned about investment and returns on their money.
