Usage Note
Investito is the past participle of investire, which has two distinct meanings depending on context: in finance, investire denaro means to invest money, so investito describes capital or a person given a role or authority; in traffic contexts, essere investito da un'auto means to be struck by a car, making investito a common term in accident reports. The double meaning can cause confusion — context is essential.
Examples
"Il capitale investito ha dato buoni risultati."
Natural Translation
The invested capital gave good results.
