What Are Trump Accounts?

Trump Accounts are investment accounts designed to help families build savings for children over the long term. The U.S. Treasury has announced that contributions are invested in low-cost index funds, with the goal of giving children a financial foundation for the future.

The Dell family's contribution is one of the largest private commitments connected to the program and is intended to help millions of American children get an early start on saving.
