# Create master and investment accounts
*Applicable to standalone solutions only*
You can create master and investment accounts for copy trading, PAMM, and MAM for registered clients in the Admin panel under **Clients** > **Accounts**. From this page, you can select any available account type and create it for the chosen client without navigating to the corresponding menu. The created master and investment accounts will appear on the **Accounts** page as well as in the corresponding menu, depending on the account type.
Alternatively, master and investment accounts can be created from the **Master** and **Investor** pages under the **Copy Trading**, **PAMM**, and **MAM** menus (for details, refer to [Manage master & investment accounts](/admin-panel-guide/manage-master-and-investment-accounts.md)).
To create a master or investment account:
{% stepper %}
{% step %}
Expand the **Clients** menu.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Go to **Accounts** in the menu.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
If you have several platform instances (such as MT4 or MT5), make sure you are in the correct instance, or go to it using the switcher in the upper-left page corner.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Click **Create** in the upper-right page corner.
