Hi everyone,

There is quite a discussion in the previous post on HSAV.TO.

I just found out about Purpose Premium Money Market Fund
Code: PFC2201.

Is this a fund for someone to consider, i.e. I do not need monthly income.
This fund is supposed to be "tax efficient", where it distributes "Return of Capital" and "Capital Gain" in previous years.

I also understand it has a high MER of .31%.
I assume it is not CDIC insured.

Please share your thoughts. Thanks.

To begin with I 'm finding a MER of .59% for PFC2201

Also , These Purpose products I've found not often available through the FUNDSERVE Tab at brokerages . I was looking at PFC8500/1 series and could not purchase through NBDB or Investors Edge

Just noticed you are looking for the PFC2201, F series, that one will be even more scarce to find.

Neither of them can be purchased at iTrade either.

I think this was discussed in a previous thread; wasn't it?

I don't know if this specific MMF was discussed before, but the discussion around it is really not much different. Not all MMFs are available at all brokerages.

Please write your comments in the forum.
