Paragraphs
An investment account is a current account linked to a securities account. It is used to transfer money in transactions to securities and deposit services. An investment account is particularly intended for transactions in funds, stocks, bonds, and ETFs.
A private individual can postpone taxation of the investment income by using an investment account. For that purpose, the transactions with financial assets must be made through an investment account only. As long as you do not withdraw the earned income from the investment account, tax liability is not created. Learn more about tax liability
