I thought money market products were super safe, not sub-investment grade!

I practiced a question like this before, and I think C is definitely the odd one out since corporations can issue money market products too.

I vaguely recall that money market products can cover a range of credit risks, which makes D sound right. But I’m uncertain if C is the one that's not true.

I remember studying that money market products can be interest bearing or discount instruments, so B should be true. But C is confusing because I thought only banks issued them.

I think money market products usually have short maturities, so A seems true. But I'm not sure about C; I feel like other entities issue them too.

I'm feeling a little lost on this one. Can someone give me a quick refresher on the basics of money market products? I want to make sure I understand the key characteristics before trying to answer.

Okay, I've got this. Money market products are short-term, typically less than a year to maturity, and can be either interest-bearing or discount instruments. They are issued by a range of entities, not just banks. I'll select the option that contradicts those facts.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. The options seem pretty similar, so I'll need to carefully read through each statement to identify the one that is not true.
