Methodology

How we calculate and present MMF data

1. Collect published data

We track published MMF yields from available fund-manager factsheets, market benchmark sources and official scheme listings where available.

2. Compare on one basis

Where possible, yields are presented as a comparable annual rate so funds can be reviewed side by side.

3. Show practical estimates

The calculator converts annual rates into simple monthly examples and deducts the selected tax assumption for a net estimate.
