Definition
As the name implies cash investments are investments that offer a high degree of liquidity. Cash investments are suitable for those who want immediate access to their savings without the risk of capital erosion. These investments are however not suitable for periods of longer than 1 year and you should rather consider adding some bonds and equity into your portfolio.
Examples of Cash Investments
- Savings accounts
- Money market funds
- Certificates of deposit
- Treasury bills (less than 12-month maturity)
