Good return on money market fund

NTUC Income has a money market fund. It will be invested mainly in interbank deposits, which now yield 3.15% pa to 3.38% for maturity of up to 12 months. These deposits are readily available and liquid.

We deduct 0.25% from the money market fund to cover our expenses. This will give a net yield of about 3% for investors. It is very attractive.

As the money is invested with a bank, it is quite safe. Almost like placing a fixed deposit with a bank.

How do you invest in our money market fund? We are launching the Flexi-Cash policy, which is invested in this fund. Watch out for our advertisement in two weeks' time.

Seems a little similar to Fundsupermart's SGD Cash Account. Some differences are, with FSM you can buy/sell online, but have to wait till end of each quarter for the interest credit.

Also, how does this Flexi-Cash compare to those ongoing bank-based FD promotions at 3.xx%?

Is there any other differentiating factor?
