In our lesson on government securities, we learned some basic information about a variety of investments. The purpose of this assignment is to gain a more in-depth understanding of the securities sold by the federal government. Using online research you will look at the federal securities listed in the lesson as well as others you might find that were not listed. In your research, consider some of the following questions for each security. How are the bills sold? What is the minimum purchase? What is the maximum purchase? In what increments is the investment sold? How are the interest rates determined? How are securities redeemed? What is the minimum holding period? What is the interest-earning period? What are the tax considerations associated with the security? Why would an investor want this security in their portfolio? When you have collected your information, you can choose to write a report on what you have found, a PowerPoint presentation, a video, or create an infographic.
