Crane Data’s Peter Crane and SSGA’s Will Goldthwait will give an update on institutional money market funds and cash investment alternatives following the October 14 implementation of new money fund reforms. They’ll review the big shift of Prime fund assets into Government money market funds, and will give an early assessment of how the new floating NAV and emergency gates & fees are working. Crane and Goldthwait will also discuss spreads and the impact and reaction of funds to a Federal Reserve rate hike, as well as the big buildup in fund liquidity. Finally, he’ll review a number of new (and old) alternatives, including bank deposits, private funds, ultra-short bond funds and other emerging cash investment options.
