Gram Account Type

Gram offers various types of brokerage accounts tailored to meet the needs of different investors. The primary account types include:

• Cash Accounts: Investors can only purchase securities up to the amount of cash available in the account. This type of account is straightforward and involves less risk since no borrowing is involved.

• Margin Accounts: These accounts allow investors to borrow money from the broker to purchase securities. While this can increase potential returns, it also increases risk, as investors must repay the borrowed amount plus interest.

• Custodial Accounts: Designed for minors, these accounts allow an adult to manage investments on behalf of a child until they reach adulthood.

• Trust Accounts: These accounts are set up in the name of a trust, allowing the assets to be managed according to the terms of the trust.

• Retirement Accounts: Gram may also offer retirement account options, such as IRAs, which provide tax advantages for long-term savings.
