Definition 4
Investmentfonds, die ausschließlich in Geldmarktinstrumente, also in kurzfristige, verzinsliche Veranlagungsformen mit keinem oder sehr geringem Risiko oder in liquide Anleihen mit sehr geringer Restlaufzeit investieren. Beachtenswertes Risiko kann bei einem Geldmarktfonds nur aus dem Währungsrisiko entstehen, und zwar dann, wenn z.B. ein Euro-Investor in einen US-Dollar-Geldmarktfonds investiert. Reine Geldmarktfonds gestattet das österreichische Investmentfondsgesetz nicht, als Alternative dazu sind jedoch geldmarktnahe Fonds möglich.

Definition 2
money market fund: open-ended mutual fund that invests in commercial paper, banker's acceptances, repurchase agreements, government securities, certificates of deposit, and other highly liquid and safe securities, and pays money market rates of interest. Launched in the middle 1970s, these funds were especially popular in the early 1980s when interest rates and inflation soared. Management's fee is less than 1% of an investor's assets; interest over and above that amount is credited to shareholders monthly. The fund's net asset value remains a constant $1 a share—only the interest rate goes up or down. Such funds usually offer the convenience of checkwriting privileges. Most funds are not federally insured, but some are covered by private insurance. Some funds invest only in government-backed securities, which give shareholders an extra degree of safety. Many money market funds are part of fund families. This means that investors can switch their money from one fund to another and back again without charge. Money in an asset management account usually is automatically swept into a money market fund until the accountholder decides where to invest it next. See also IBC's money fund report average; family of funds; money market deposit account; tax-exempt money market fund.

Definition 1
MMFs are defined as those CIUs of which the units are, in terms of liquidity, close substitutes for deposits and which primarily invest in money market instruments and/or in other transferable debt instruments with a residual maturity up to and including one year, and/or in bank deposits, and/or which pursue a rate of return that approaches the interest rates of money market instruments. The criteria identifying MMFs may be derived from the public prospectus, fund rules, instruments of incorporation, established statutes or by-laws, subscription documents or investment contracts, marketing documents, or any other statement with similar effect, of the CIUs.
