Prime Rate Fund A prime rate fund is a type of mutual fund that makes an attempt at getting the same return as the current prime rate. This is accomplished by investing in corporate debt that is likely to have a return on it. Since the prime rate is not available to all customers, and is generally reserved for these multinational corporations, there is a good chance of receiving a return. In addition, prime rate loans are given out because there is not a very good chance of a default, which can also lead to a sure return for investors in this type of mutual fund. |
