Banks have been lowering deposit interest rates, including money market accounts, due to the Federal Reserve cutting the federal funds rate. The national average MMA rate is 0.62%, but top high-yield MMAs offer over 4% APY. It’s crucial to compare rates before opening an account to maximize earnings.

Online banks and credit unions offer competitive MMA rates. Online banks have lower overhead costs, leading to higher deposit rates. Credit unions are not-for-profit and provide competitive rates. MMAs are low-risk, FDIC-insured up to $250,000 per depositor, per institution, making them a safer option than money market funds.

MMAs are great for short-term savings goals, offering higher interest rates than regular savings accounts and easier access to funds. However, some MMAs require a minimum balance to earn the highest rate and may limit monthly transactions. Consider your needs and shop around for the best rates before opening an account.

To earn a strong return on your money, consider investing in market securities like stocks, mutual funds, or ETFs. The stock market averages a 10% return per year. Speak with a financial advisor or use a robo-advisor for cost-effective portfolio management. There is no guaranteed 12% return, but strategic investing can help grow your wealth significantly.
