PKC Account Types

PKC offers several types of brokerage accounts tailored to meet different investment needs. The main account types include:

• Standard Brokerage Account: This account allows investors to deposit or withdraw cash at any time, providing access to a variety of investments. It is the most common type of account, suitable for general trading.

• Margin Account: This account enables investors to borrow funds from the broker to purchase securities, using the purchased securities as collateral. This type of account can amplify returns but also increases risk due to the potential for significant losses.

• Custodial Account: Designed for minors, this account is managed by an adult custodian until the child reaches the age of majority. There are no penalties for withdrawal, and funds can be used for the minor's benefit.

• Retirement Account: This account type focuses on long-term savings for retirement, offering tax advantages. Withdrawals are subject to penalties if taken before a certain age.

• Education IRA: This account allows individuals to save for a child's education in a tax-advantaged manner, with contributions exempt from taxation.

• Discretionary Account: Similar to a standard account, but allows a professional to make investment decisions on behalf of the investor without prior consent.
