What if their value could grow, earn dividends and lay the foundation for a diverse financial portfolio?

With OMB Stock Rewards Checking, they can.

Common Investment Terms and Their Definitions

Stocks: Also known as shares or equities, stocks represent ownership in a corporation and are traded on the stock market. Investors purchase stocks in the hope of generating profits through capital appreciation and dividends as the company grows and becomes more profitable.

Fractional shares: Partial shares of a company's stock that are less than one full share, allowing investors to own a portion of a stock rather than a whole unit.

Dividends: Dividends are a portion of a company's profits distributed to its shareholders. Typically paid quarterly or annually, dividends are a way for companies to share their financial success with investors and provide them with a regular income stream based on the number of shares they own.

Investment portfolio: A collection of various financial assets, such as stocks, bonds and mutual funds, owned by an individual or an organization to achieve financial goals and manage risk.

Portfolio diversification: Portfolio diversification refers to the practice of spreading investments across various asset classes, industries and geographic regions to reduce risk and optimize returns. By diversifying their portfolios, investors aim to minimize the impact of market fluctuations on their overall investment performance.

Mobile app integration: The process of linking a bank account or financial service to a mobile application, allowing users to manage their finances, track transactions and access banking services conveniently from their smartphones or tablets.
