MINOR ACCOUNTS
A minor account is a savings account set up particularly for a minor by an adult. With its help, a minor can make withdrawals and deposits but does not get all the benefits as in the case of a normal account.
A minor account can be opened as long as the child can sign his or her own name. It also necessitates the signature of a person over the age of 18.
A minor account provides a youngster more authority over their money than a custodial account.
