Deductions & credits

Thank you. Please forgive me for my slowness but I still don't quite understand. If I report all gains and interests coming from those bonds on Form 8949, why should I report that I simply own a brokerage account? In other words, if I had a checking account which does not produce any interest regardless of the amount of money put in it, should I report the fact that I simply have a certain amount of money in that account?
