Russell, Wachovia to Shore Up Money Funds with Lehman Exposure


Moves by Russell Investments and Evergreen Investment parent Wachovia Corp. to shore up money market funds with exposure to Lehman Brothers Holdings are the focus of Wednesday's Wall Street Journal Fund Track by Daisy Maxey.

Russell Investments and its parent, Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Co. will support the value of the Lehman credit held in two money funds, the Russell Investment Co. Money Market Fund and the Russell Trust Co. Short Term Investment Fund.

Meanwhile, Wachovia has entered into support agreements with Evergreen Money Market Fund, Evergreen Institutional Money Market Fund and Evergreen Prime Cash Management Fund.
