Money Market Account
The Pax World Money Market Account (PWMMA) is intended to provide Pax World investors with a convenient and liquid option for their cash deposits. Assets held in the PWMMA are deposited in ShoreBank, the nation’s first and leading community development and environmental banking institution. The PWMMA is not a mutual fund.
Community Development
Assets deposited in the PWMMA at ShoreBank help revitalize underserved communities through community development and environmental loans that:
- Spur neighborhood redevelopment projects;
- Rescue homeowners from foreclosure;
- Assist first-time home buyers;
- Finance women- and minority owned businesses;

- Help nonprofit and faith-based organizations provide community services and programs
Its triple bottom-line approach to banking provides access to responsible, affordable financial services in the neglected and disinvested low-to-moderate income urban neighborhoods of Chicago, Cleveland and Detroit. Since its inception in 1973, ShoreBank has invested more than $3 billion for the purchase and renovation of more than 53,000 units of quality, unsubsidized, affordable housing.
