Client assets are held separately from Reed & Associates, Inc. assets. Your funds and your securities are kept in a brokerage account with Pershing®, LLC. Pershing then is required to keep your funds and securities in custodial accounts separate from Pershing's assets. For more information about Pershing, please visit
Our Strategic Partners and read "Your Greatest Protection" in
Investor Education.
In 1970 Congress created the Securities Investor Protection Corporation® (SIPC) so that if member companies such as Pershing failed or were liquidated the SIPC would step in. In the case of any securites or cash missing from eligible client accounts the SIPC provides $500,000 of protection. For more information on the SIPC please visit
Investor Education to read their brochure entitled "How the SIPC Helps You."
Pershing has arranged for assets in excess of $500,000 to be insured by
Lloyd's® of London. Your account is protected up to $1 billion including $1.9 million in cash awaiting reinvestment for your individual brokerage account. This does not protect against losses from the rise and fall in the market value of investments.
