A managed fund which invests in money market instruments.
Mortgage backed securities are bonds representing interests in loans secured by mortgages on residential or commercial property.


Some money market funds are structured as 'liquid' money market funds, designed to be lower risk managed funds by - among other features - investing only in liquid money market instruments of the highest credit quality.
The investors have the right to interest and principal repayments from the mortgage loans.
 
Other money market funds seek to provide higher average expected income through a longer dated, higher risk and less liquid portfolio.
