Know your investment accounts
In investing, knowing where to invest comes first. This section will help you understand and get to know the types of investments that will help you accommodate your financial goals and investing style.
Investing 101
Along with understanding the importance of financial planning, one recognizes the need to choose one or a combination of investment accounts available. There are two categories–registered and non-registered. A registered investment account enjoys a tax-sheltered status from the government and comes with a list of restrictions that helps ensure the investment is utilized for its intended purpose.

Non-registered Investment Accounts
These are general investment accounts that allow you to invest a wide range of assets. Due to their non-registered status, they don’t have the same limits or regulations as the registered accounts. Having said that, income generated by this investment vehicle is subject to tax.
Considerations before opening an

Your investment goals
It is important to be clear about your investment objectives in choosing an investment account. This will help you choose the appropriate investment vehicle among the variety of options available to you, maximizing your gains and minimizing taxes.
Fees and charges
In choosing an investment, get to know and understand the fees and charges associated with your investment options. They are usually minimal, but over time they can have a major impact on your investment portfolio. Fees and charges may be charged upfront or on a recurring basis which commonly includes the management fees, brokerage fees, load fees, and commissions.
What the account can hold
This consideration is especially important in registered investment accounts. The Government imposes rules and regulations as to the limit, amount, and the type of investment you are allowed to purchase in your account. When working with a financial advisor, ensure that they are able to sell the investments you want.
