April marks the start of a new financial quarter, offering individuals and businesses a chance to re-align their savings and investment strategies. As financial planning becomes increasingly important, the Cytonn Money Market Fund (CMMF) remains a practical and accessible option for short-term investors looking for daily returns and capital preservation.
According to audited results released by Cytonn Asset Managers Limited (CAML), the fund posted a profit of KES 94.9 million in 2024, a substantial increase from KES 27.0 million in 2023. This translates to a 250% growth in profitability, attributed to an improved operating environment, increased interest rates, and asset growth to KES 1.1 billion, up from KES 492.8 million in 2023.
“Our performance was supported by strategic portfolio allocations and increased investor confidence,” said Winnet Momanyi, Investment Analyst at CAML. “With assets under management more than doubling, we’ve seen a growing interest in accessible, low-risk investment products.”
CMMF is regulated by the Capital Markets Authority (CMA) and invests in secure, short-term instruments such as government securities, fixed deposits, and commercial paper. It targets annualized returns of up to 16%, which are distributed daily and reinvested automatically, allowing investors to benefit from compounding.
The fund’s digital accessibility also supports convenience. Through the Cytonn App and USSD code *809#, users can invest, withdraw, and track their balances in real-time—anytime, anywhere.
“Investors are seeking efficiency and flexibility,” Momanyi noted. “With CMMF, they’re able to monitor performance daily and maintain control over their funds while earning competitive returns.”
As April unfolds, the opportunity to align financial goals with disciplined saving and strategic investment becomes even more significant. By leveraging tools that offer both stability and yield, investors can take consistent steps toward their financial objectives.
