An Account in InvestNext represents the legal entity that is making the investment in one or more of your projects. Common Account types include Individuals, LLCs, Self Directed IRAs, Trusts, and more.

While most investors create an Account as part of the Commitment Process for an Investment, there are times when sponsors may need to create an Account on behalf of their investor.
