Investment-accounts

An investment account is held at a financial facility such as a bank, brokerage house or sometimes even an insurance company. The main purpose of this kind of account is the preservation and growth of the capital, as well as fixed income gains through long-term deposits in the asset portfolio. While generally the word “investing” is a very broad definition, covering a range of proactive uses of assets — such as patents, trade marks, rare wines, gold coins, small businesses, real estate and antiques — investment accounts hold less tangible assets, such as cash, stocks, bonds and mutual funds.
