Simplefin Account Type

Simplefin offers various types of accounts to cater to different financial needs. These include:

• Cash Accounts: Basic accounts where investors fund their accounts with cash to purchase and sell securities. There are no borrowing options, making them less risky.
• Margin Accounts: These accounts allow investors to borrow money from Simplefin to purchase securities, enabling them to buy more than their cash balance would allow. However, this also increases the risk of losses.
• Retirement Accounts: Specialized accounts designed for tax-advantaged savings for retirement, allowing pre-tax contributions and tax-deferred growth.
• Joint Accounts: Accounts held by two or more individuals, allowing them to pool resources and invest together.
• Custodial Accounts: Accounts set up for minors, managed by an adult until the child reaches adulthood.
