You can buy treasuries and money market funds with Chase self directed accounts.

Why, to pay higher fees for the same thing?

To make transfers faster and more convenient.

I forgot bank transfers in the USA still use fax machines. Where I am this is roughly instant.

Does Chase charge a fee to buy US treasuries? I know Fidelity and Schwab do not. I wouldn't be willing to pay a cent in fees to buy a T-bill.
