What is the purpose of holding cash in a portfolio? I never really understood the rationale of this?

And is the cash in this situation money held in a savings account or in money market funds? If it's the latter, what is a good money market fund in SG?

For me, my cash holding includes emergency funds + extra to buy in if market crash.

I keep them in tiq elastiq 1.8% and singlife 2.5% which relatively easy to open.

I do use StashAway simple (underlying is MMF), however, the cash out process is not as quick as singlife.
