Wayne Bank offers a variety of account types to meet the needs of different investors. The primary types of accounts include:
Cash Account: This is a standard brokerage account where you must pay for the total amount of the securities you want to buy with the available cash in your account. There is no borrowing involved.
Margin Account: This type of account allows you to borrow money from the brokerage to purchase securities. It carries higher risks, as you must repay the borrowed amount plus interest.
Investor Account: This is a money market account featuring a tiered interest rate structure that rewards larger balance levels with higher interest rates. The minimum opening deposit is $25,000, with interest earned on daily balances of $5,000 or more.
Discretionary Account: In this account type, your broker has the authority to make trades on your behalf without needing your prior approval. This can be beneficial for busy investors looking for a more hands-off approach.
Non-Discretionary Account: Here, the broker must contact you for permission before executing any trades. This is suitable for investors who prefer to have complete control over their investment decisions.
