Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A portfolio is a collection of assets, such as stocks, bonds, and other securities owned by an individual or institution. Given that Suzie has multiple investments in different securities, "portfolio" is the term that best describes her investments. "Index" refers to a benchmark used to track the performance of a specific group of securities. "Collection" and "grouping" are too broad and vague to accurately describe Suzie's investments, while "risk-free" refers to an investment with no possibility of losing money, which does not apply to Suzie's investments.
