Italian term
cassettista
Italian to English
Bus/Financial
Finance (general)
stock market
The word is used in my text to describe a financial broker whose clients lost huge amounts of money because he didn't look after their investments. The EN text would read something like the following:
"such managers have to move capital continuously so as to get the projected results; yet in this case we see xxxx filling the managed funds with illiquid financial instruments that cannot then be sold... neanche fosse un cassettista”
I found a lovely definition of the word, which fits the context perfectly, but need some help in coming up with an equivalent term in EN:
"E' il classico investitore che compra azioni e le mantiene vita natural durante, non si interessa di nulla, non segue nel medio termine l'andamento del titolo, si interessa solo saltuariamente del valore raggiunto, incassa le cedole (se previste), mantiene in portafogli titoli spesso con molta capitalizzazione (molto liquidi) e li vende solo se ha bisogno di contante senza curarsi dell'opportunità del momento"

buy and hold investor
What Does Buy And Hold Mean?
A passive investment strategy in which an investor buys stocks and holds them for a long period of time, regardless of fluctuations in the market. An investor who employs a buy-and-hold strategy actively selects stocks, but once in a position, is not concerned with short-term price movements and technical indicators.
