French term

horizon de placement

French to English Bus/Financial Investment / Securities company savings plan (PEE)
this term is a sub-header under "vos placements", which includes "variation of share value" and "level of risk". Under this heading, there are indications for 3-year minimum and 5-year minimum. Could this translate simply as "investment outlook"?

rkillings Dec 20, 2010:
No, it's not the outlook It's how far into the future before you plan to cash out. It's *your* intention as an investor -- your *intended* investment period -- which is why it persists as a separate term.
