Money market fund plans, side by side
Your money is lent out short term. Safe and easy to reach, grows slowly.
On this example, Madison Money Market Fund from Madison Investment Managers comes out ahead: KES 379,702.
Ordered by what you would actually be left with — the same money in, over the same years, with each plan's own charges taken out. Not by the rate each one advertises. The example is the same for every plan here: KES 5,000 a month for 5 years.
