Liability matching is strictly more optimal. If you know when you need money you can take that portion of the risk out of the equation. On the other hand, with reinvested funds, you are paid to take the risk of interest rates going up and the lack of a fixed maturity date, by the possibility that interest rates might go down (the so-called roll-yield).
