NJB Account Type

NJB offers several types of brokerage accounts to cater to different investment needs. The primary account types include:

• Individual Brokerage Account: This account is owned by a single individual and allows full control over investment decisions. It is ideal for personal investing without the need for joint ownership.

• Joint Brokerage Account: This account is shared by two or more individuals, commonly used by couples or family members. It facilitates collaborative investment management and estate planning.

• Cash Account: In this type of account, investors must pay the full amount for securities purchased without borrowing funds. It is suitable for those who prefer to manage their investments without leverage.

• Margin Account: This account allows investors to borrow funds from the brokerage to purchase securities, increasing purchasing power. However, it also involves higher risk due to the potential for larger losses.

• Retirement Accounts (IRA): NJB also offers various retirement accounts, such as Traditional IRAs and Roth IRAs, which provide tax advantages for retirement savings.
