Its income is generally calculated according to the income per 10,000 shares, that is, the income of the monetary fund on the current day = the available fund share on the current day × the current day 1 10,000 shares of income/10000. For example, if you hold 10000 fund shares and the income of 10000 is 0.45, then the income of the money fund on that day =10000× 0.45/10000 = 0.45 yuan.
Monetary fund is an open-end fund that collects idle social funds, is operated by fund managers and kept by fund custodians. It specializes in investing in low-risk money market instruments, which is different from other types of open-end funds. It has the characteristics of high security, high liquidity, stable income and "quasi-savings".
Investment field
The assets of the Monetary Fund are mainly invested in short-term monetary instruments (generally within one year, with an average term of 120 days), such as treasury bonds, central bank bills, commercial bills, bank time deposit certificates, government short-term bonds, corporate bonds (with high credit rating), interbank deposits and other short-term securities.
Product characteristics
1. Principal security: Most money market funds have the lowest risk among all kinds of funds. Money fund contracts generally do not guarantee the security of the principal, but in fact, due to the nature of the fund, the loss of the principal of the money fund rarely occurs in reality. Generally speaking, money funds are regarded as cash equivalents.
2. Strong liquidity: liquidity can be comparable to demand deposits. The fund is easy to buy and sell, with short time to receive funds and high liquidity. Generally, the funds will arrive in a day or two after redemption. At present, some fund companies have opened the instant redemption business of money funds, which can be received on the same day.
3. Higher yield: Most money market funds generally have the income level of national debt investment. Money market funds can not only invest in investment tools that ordinary institutions can invest in, such as exchange repurchase, but also enter the inter-bank bond and repurchase market and the central bank bill market for investment. Generally, their annual net return rate can be compared with the one-year time deposit rate, which is higher than the income level of bank deposits in the same period.
Moreover, money market funds can avoid hidden losses. When there is inflation, the real interest rate may be very low or even negative. Money market funds can keep abreast of interest rate changes and inflation trends and obtain stable and high returns.
4. Low investment cost: Generally speaking, there is no handling fee for buying and selling money market funds, and the subscription fee, subscription fee and redemption fee are all zero, so it is very convenient for funds to enter and exit, which not only reduces the investment cost, but also ensures liquidity. For the first subscription/subscription, 1000 yuan, and for the second subscription, 100 yuan will be increased.
5. Dividend exemption: Most money market funds always maintain the face value of 1 yuan. The income is calculated every day, and there is interest income every day. Investors enjoy compound interest, while bank deposits are only simple interest. Monthly dividends are carried forward as fund shares, and dividends are exempt from income tax.
