Solicitors sentence confuses me

[UniversallyChallenged]

Please can someone reassure me.
This wording used by the solicitor is rather confusing to me.
The will states: To the appointed, I leave all my shares and holdings of a capital nature in RBS.
My question is: Does the "holdings of a capital nature" also include the balance left in the account, as well as the shares?

Thanks in advance.

Hi and welcome

Solicitors use of the term "holdings" is a trifle overkill!
Capital would include cash and funds in current and deposit accounts.
Holdings (as a noun) means assets and funds, stocks in a person's possession

So essentially the answer to your question is that the account balance would be included

That's how I understand it anyway!

Thank you, for your replies. Much appreciated.
That was how I read it, but wasn't 100 pc sure.
