Dear Wazuans,
I am seeking advice on investment i made in Genghis Capital(Sister company to Chase Bank) hela fund their Money Market fund.
I have talked to the investment advisor who assures me the investment is safe as chase bank was only the custodian.
Checked CMA website and they equally state the investment is safe.
Just seeking assurance from Wazua colleagues who may also be suffering the same stress
Great day

Great day Pole... Why pole as the investment is safe? John 5:17 But Jesus replied, “My Father is always working, and so am I.”

Great day Theoretically safe but nothing is really safe Do your research and report here pyrex, assurances from regulators are not worth the paper they are printed on. hela fund invests in high yielding fixed deposits with small banks. chances that gencap funds were invested in chase bank are 9/10. id advice you liquidate and transfer to another fund.

I equally have UAP shares with GengHis that could be unsafe. The opposite of courage is not cowardice, it's conformity.

I saw this Wazua tweet. Affiliates should be better off than Chase Bank. Custodial assets should not comprise distributable assets in the case of liquidation, more so if separately identifiable.
Holders of normal securities in their names are protected by CDSC.
The other depositors look like they should have some respite in the coming weeks

You are right...the money was invested with Chase the Bank I too thought so...if you invest in money market, the fund always invest the money in high yielding FDR and TBills. Now GenCap having a custodial account at Chase Bank means that they collect all the client money at put it at an account in Chase Bank, once the money is "big" enough to invest, they look for a bank offering the best rates on fixed deposits at that time...that bank could have easily been Chase Bank since I am told Chase was giving upwards of 13.5%, Imperial giving 13% while TBills was 9.5% and the tier 1 banks were averaging at 5%...so pole sana.

It has been months now and it turns out Chase bank customers were better off than those of us who were hela fund account holders since we still cant access our money.Somebody should really get C.M.A to first give us a status report stating if our cash is still safe and if so a time line on when we can expect to access it like they did for chase bank depositors.

Advantage of pooling funds is better rates. But in this situation, you end up with a large single depositor. Would be terrible but fascinating if the money market funds (short term, safe investment) ended up as a shareholder in Chase (long long term, risky asset). That's black magic.
