Understanding Managed Discretionary Accounts
A Managed Discretionary Account (MDA) is an investment account where a professional manager makes investment decisions and transacts on your behalf, following an agreed mandate. You still own the investments, but the manager handles the day-to-day decisions, such as rebalancing the portfolio.
