Bank Deposit Sweep

Our Cash Sweep Program allows clients to earn a return on uninvested cash balances by automatically "sweeping" cash balances into a Sweep vehicle until such balances are invested or otherwise used to satisfy obligations arising in the account. Cash Sweep Vehicle eligibility is based on the type of investment account and nature of account ownership.
