Money Market Mutual Funds: Runs, Emergency Liquidity Facilities, and Potential Reforms

Kenechukwu Anadu () and Siobhan Sanders

Supervisory Research and Analysis Notes, 2021, issue 03, 12

Abstract: This note describes past runs on non-government money market mutual funds and official sector actions that were taken to stem the runs. In addition, it highlights other cash management vehicles that may have vulnerabilities similar to those of non-government MMMFs. Finally, it proposes that converting all non-government MMMFs into government MMMFs could substantially reduce the likelihood of future official sector support for MMMFs.
