the benefits of residential mortgages and Government of Canada
bonds to offer investors safety, liquidity, competitive yields
and the convenience of monthly income.
Money Market Instruments
Because many money market instruments are high quality, earn competitive yields and are highly liquid, they're often a good place to invest funds on a short-term basis. Choose from Government of Canada and Provincial treasury bills (T-Bills), short term government bonds, bankers' acceptances and commercial paper.
Available through WebBroker, the Fixed Income Centre allows you to buy and sell bonds, mortgage-backed securities and money market securities online. Get more information.
