CASH SOLUTIONS
As investors, we often view our investment and bank accounts separately. However, we do not have to. There are many solutions available at LPL Financial that you can leverage to do things you may ordinarily associate only with your bank accounts:
• Earn interest on your uninvested cash using FDIC insured cash sweeps:
For most accounts, you earn daily interest on your uninvested cash through one of our FDIC-insured cash sweep programs. Each day, we sweep your uninvested cash to a participating bank to earn interest. Because cash is going to a bank, your cash is covered by FDIC insurance. Our network of various banks allows you to ensure that we do not allocate cash to a bank where you already have an account.
• Perform common financial transactions: write checks, set up auto bill pay, withdraw cash, or make purchases with a debit or credit card:
Through our partnership with UMB*, United Missouri Bank, we are able to offer The Premier and Premier Plus Account. The Premier Plus Account offers a full suite of banking services, such as check writing, bill pay, debit and credit card functions—all leveraging your LPL investment account.
• Use your non-qualified investment account as collateral for a loan:
Do you need a loan to purchase something other than securities? Or, do you want to explore a way to pay off a higher-interest loan or credit facility?
LPL partners with several national banks, Goldman Sachs1, The Bancorp2, and TriState Capital3 to provide fixed and variable lines of credit at lower rates compared to traditional lending vehicles.
