minimum investment
Smallest required stake
The minimum investment is the smallest amount of money required to participate in a particular financial opportunity—a fund, account, or asset class.
Many mutual funds set minimums of a few thousand dollars; hedge funds and private equity may require hundreds of thousands or more.
The minimum investment for that index fund is $3,000.
Lower minimums make investing accessible to more people.
