AMM wimaturingContractsHeroll contact Sequoia a week prior to any maturing investment. Upon instruction, AMM will either reinvest the funds into the institution and deposit of your choice, or redeem the funds as required. AMM never automatically rolls over the funds and therefore avoids significant risk of the investment rolling over from a high interest rate to a low interest rate with the same institution. If no instructions are received, funds are returned to your cash management account to await further instructions.

The benefits of actively managing your cash deposits include:

  • Enabling you to continually maximise interest earned
  • Obtaining the most competitive rate available in market at each rollover
  • Advance notification of upcoming maturities
  • Automatic transfer of funds between institutions
  • Minimise administrative costs
