We wrote last Friday in our daily Crane Data News, "Money Funds Receive Final Sigma Payments, Celebrate SIV-Free Status," that Federated Investors would be receiving their final Sigma SIV payment Monday. The company now confirms it, writing on their website "As of August 19, 2008, the Federated prime money market funds have 0% exposure to Sigma Finance. Sigma has met all payment obligations as agreed." See also Sigma Finance Corporation Update.
