If a person was to invest an awful lot of money in a fund, he or she might get a return of 1%, 2% or 3%. I am talking about the fund itself, depending on what it is. However, this fund is now in a position to increase its chances of huge interest rates by just saying it will increase the interest rates to the European average of, say, 6%, 7% or 9% and, therefore, now, they are really making money.
