Types of Investments
The Foundation has 3 investment
options:
-
Short-Term Investment
- This money market option allows a church to invest at least $5,000 at
better than bank savings account rates. The investor needs to
understand that the interest rate in this option may vary; in fact, it can
change daily. This option is a great asset for a church that may on
any given day need cash; but, in the meantime, may provide a good return on
the church's investment.
-
Fixed Rate Investment -
This option allows a church to invest at least $5,000 for about one year up
to five (5) years, and to lock in a good interest rate. The initial
term and the interest rate will be agreed upon at the time of investment,
based upon current rates.
-
Long-Term Investment
Portfolio
- This fund is designed for a church to invest at least $5,000 for up to
five (5) years or more. These monies are invested with the
Foundation's other long-term deposits. Under this option, the church
will earn the same interest rate as the Foundation's funds, minus a small
fee.

How and where is this money
used?
The Baptist Foundation uses the money to help churches. We loan money
to churches that are looking to build, remodel or improve their facilities.
When they pay their interest to the Foundation, the earned interest is then
reinvested and used to help other churches. This principle is
significantly different from what happens in the local bank. Our other
goal is to provide investment opportunities that allow churches to earn a good
return on their investment, while their money is used to enhance the ministry of
other churches. |
