The assets of the Cash Fund are largely held on deposit with a range of AAA rated international banks in order to maximise member security. The rate of interest available on these deposits is currently at historically low levels. As a result, the net return provided by the CERS Cash Fund (after deducting management charges) is likely to be negative until interest rates generally increase.”  This situation is not unique to CERS – all AAA rated cash funds are producing negative returns after allowing for charges and the Levy.
