Using Mutual Funds for Cash Management Purposes
The GFOA recommends that state and local governments restrict their use of mutual funds for cash management purposes exclusively to: (1) money market mutual funds that are invested in Treasury, federal government agency, or first tier categories and possess the highest ratings available from at least one nationally-recognized ratings agency and (2) short-term bond funds that receive the highest credit quality ratings and the lowest risk ratings available.
