disagree  rkillings: Unfortunately for the asker, this meaning is "instruments au comptant" (as opposed to instruments dérivés) in French.

cash flow instruments


Explanation:
Giving rise to a stream of income; typically short-term debt securities.

Par contre, "cash instrument" usually refers to the underlying (bought or sold for cash, on a cash market) as opposed to the derivative based on it (traded on margin on a forward market, such as a futures or options exchange).
