Just realised my bank that used to pay 5% interest on my bank balance reduced the interest rate to 1.5%

which money market can one keep funds that are intended for purchase of shares

these are funds which are to be utilised slowly as opportunity to buy crops up

Other than buying TBs are there banks offering good rates on deposits

when i was using African Alliance as my broker, i used to keep un-utilised funds in their money markets

I since moved to NIC securities and they do not have the same facilities

I would recommend Pan Africa Pesa+ However Amana, CIC AND Gencap Hela are good alternatives

If the daily rate is given for e,g 12%,the return will be 0.12/365*150k=49.32
Applying WHT of 15%,the net earning will be 49.32*0.85=41.92,
Note that the earnings are compounded.

be wary of the following fine print
1. minimum period
2.gross vs net yield
3. admin fees
4. withdrawal process


piece of advice money for trading should be in your brokerage account. speed of execution is critical in these volatile times.

remember, every time you move money you loose some of it.

In the world of securities, courage and patience become the supreme virtues after adequate knowledge and a tested judgment are at hand.

I didn't know about any commission. But I'm sure it is not worth the hustle of going there. I think their money market fund is awesome though

So how good is the deal? What rate did you get and about the admin fees and is there a minimum time to invest? Did you buy unit trust? Which one?

@Chaka thanks for the quick lesson. One more question, the daily yield can go up or down right, is there a minimum? How would one calculate into the future?

i used to keep cash with my brokers when i was using African Alliance since i could move the cash to money market fund and to stocks easily

when i moved to NIC securities, i did not get the same facilities

My bank was giving me 5% on the current account until they slashed to 1.5% hence the move to use pan africa money market funds

Yes there is a risk of delays in getting funds since they say once you want to access cash you have to give them 3 days

you can withdraw cash any time you want and but there is a charge of 500 if it is more than once per month. also a fee of 1.2% per annum is charged
