PALO ALTO, Calif., Nov. 27, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The intuitive investment and trading platform moomoo has recently updated its Cash Sweep program in the US, with a compelling 5.1% annual percentage yield ("APY") for eligible clients [1], adding one more powerful tool to help boost the cash management efficiency of their securities accounts. The highly competitive 5.1% APY currently offers one of the highest yields for uninvested cash in the entire brokerage industry.

If you have excess funds in your US securities account and wish to avoid increased exposure to market volatility while you consider your next moves, moomoo's Cash Sweep could be an effective option for generating passive income. Nate Palmer, President of Moomoo Financial Inc. said, "With this cash management tool, you can be confident that your money is working for you."

The Cash Sweep program does not impact the purchasing power of brokerage accounts because the swept funds in the program bank accounts are still part of a customer's securities account. Thanks to trouble-free operation of the Cash Sweep, managing your funds on moomoo platforms is now incredibly convenient. If your securities account dips into negative balance, funds will be automatically redeemed from the bank for repayment. When cash starts to grow in excess in your securities account, it will be swept into the bank account to earn interest.

With just several taps on a screen, new moomoo clients can activate the Cash Sweep feature and earn interest on their uninvested cash. Existing moomoo clients can still gain the 5.1% APY rate through recent promotions, with additional terms and conditions applied [2]. The swept money at the program banks are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), which means your money is secured up to a certain amount.

Notably, moomoo's Cash Sweep program has no cap on the interest-bearing principal and no minimum balance requirements for the accounts. Furthermore, no additional costs, such as service fees, will be incurred.

In the US, eligible moomoo users [3] are allowed to do $0 commission trading on US stocks, ETFs and options with no account minimums. Starting from November to February 2024, moomoo is also waiving exchange proprietary fees for index option trading on its platform, making index options trading [4] more cost-effective in terms of fees to active moomoo customers. The ending date is subject to change. For margin traders who are looking to borrow more funds for trading, moomoo offers margin rates as low as 6.8%, a highly competitive level in the industry.
