Sorted by running yield: what each fund's cash and short-term securities are earning today, after fees where the issuer says so. That's the best guide to what you'd earn from now. The 12-month yield is what the fund actually paid over the past year, so it lags when interest rates move.

Running yields are taken from each issuer's website on the date shown and change every day. Issuers measure them differently (a cash yield, or a yield to maturity, before or after fees), so small differences aren't like for like. BILL's and ISEC's yields to maturity and MONY's yield to worst are shown as the issuer publishes them and may be before fees. Yield to worst is the lowest yield the fund's securities could pay if issuers repay early. Where an issuer doesn't publish a current figure, we show "Not published". 12-month yields are from the issuer where available, otherwise from distributions to October 2026. Cash-plus and active funds can hold short-term bank and corporate debt for a little extra yield, with a little more risk. Currency ETFs are left out. General information only.
