Spanish term or phrase: Patrimonio
Hi,

I am translating a financial statement. Can anybody help with Patrimonio? I was going to translate it as Assets but I have already used this term for 'Activos':

ACTIVOS
Corriente
Efectivo en Caja y Bancos
…..
PATRIMONIO
Name of client
TOTAL PASIVO Y PATRIMONIO

Could it be 'Initial Equity'?

Thanks
