EduMarkets Money Markets

The short end of the curve is where the financial system handles its day-to-day funding. The module covers Treasury bills, commercial paper, and repos, the instruments that keep cash moving between banks, money market funds, and corporates. Users price each and see how repo rates respond to collateral quality. Liquidity matters here in a way it does not elsewhere on the curve.
