I vaguely recall something about finance companies, but I don’t think that’s what money market mutual funds are. D seems off to me.

I’m not entirely sure, but I feel like money market funds are accessible to a wide range of investors, not just high net-worth individuals, which makes me doubt B.

I've got this! Money market mutual funds are a way for regular investors to access short-term, low-risk investments like Treasury bills and commercial paper. I'll select the answer that best captures that.

Okay, I remember learning about money market mutual funds in class. I think the key is understanding how they enable individuals and small businesses to invest indirectly in money market instruments.

Option C is just completely off the mark. Mortgages? What does that have to do with money market funds? The exam writers must be trying to trick us with that one.

Haha, Option B is definitely not the right answer. If these funds were only for high net-worth individuals, they wouldn't be called 'mutual' funds, would they?
