Categories: Investing, Stocks, Bonds, Managed Funds, Mutual Funds
An investment company is a trust or corporation that takes money from a bunch of investors and, uh, invests it, managing the pooled money to make as much as possible.
If you have lots of money but don't want to spend a lot of time managing your investments, you might take your oodles of cash to an investment company. In most cases, these companies have to be registered with the SEC.
