Advisers walk fine line when managing client cash
Staying ahead of inflation in a low-yield environment can mean taking on more risk with emergency cash positions. The shortest-term certificates of deposit are yielding less than 65 basis points.

While most financial advisers continue to recommend their clients hold enough cash or liquid cash equivalent to cover between three- and six-months’ worth of living expenses in case of an emergency, the crushing reality of historic-low yields is leading to some shifting priorities when balancing safety and yield.
“I get the question about earning yield on cash at least once a week from clients,” said Paul Schatz, president of Heritage Capital. “There are plenty of solutions, but solutions don’t come with the same low level of risk as bank savings accounts.”

A grant to the Wellesley Police Department is helping local officers with efforts to enforce the current Massachusetts mask/face covering mandate and set a positive example for the community, according to a Tuesday annoucement.
This week, the Community Fund for Wellesley’s COVID-19 Relief Fund awarded $1,470 to the Police Department to support the purchase of WPD branded masks and two-ply gaiters (face sleeves) for all uniformed officers and extra masks to distribute to residents
“Our officers are on the front lines every day protecting our community and enforcing the tightened restrictions necessary to keep Wellesley safe during the pandemic, said Wellesley Police Chief Jack Pilecki. These masks and face coverings are a heavier weight for the winter months and will standardize our uniforms, and will help us portray a positive, consistent public image as we work to educate, inform, and remind everyone about the importance of mask wearing.
