Investing in Money Market AccountsMoney market funds typically offer very similar profiles in terms of risk and return, so you should make an extra effort on comparing the available money market funds in terms of fees associated and the return to your portfolio after those fees. These fees come in a variety of forms, including fees associated with transferring funds from one fund to another within the management company, and even withdrawing funds from the money market fund.
