Using Cash in Sub-Accounts

You can incorporate cash into sub-accounts by using the ticker symbol DP.CASH. To do this, buy the ticker symbol DP.CASH into a sub-account. Money deposited into an account will generally sweep into our Cash Sweep Program, whereas you need to actually purchase DP CASH like a security in order to use it in a sub-account. Cash in DP CASH earns interest rate but cannot be used to cover new purchases, checks or electronic funds transfers because it is held like a security.

Cash held in a sub-account can be given a weight just like a security in a sub-account. For example, if you want to hold 10% of your folio in cash, simply buy the ticker DP.CASH and set the weight to 10%.

*The sub-accounts feature is not available to all customers, but all customers have access to our Cash Sweep Program.

Higher Yielding Cash Deposit Options

DP CASH PLUS is designed for investors who want higher interest rates on larger amounts of cash, with safety of capital, and easy next-day access to funds. There is a $25,000 minimum deposit to earn interest in this higher-yielding cash vehicle. Balances below $25,000 do not pay interest. DP CASH PLUS is only held in Non-folio Holdings.

Important Notes

• Cash deposits are commission-free.
• Rates automatically adjust depending on the balance in the investment.
• Cash rates can change at any time without notice, based on current market conditions.
• Interest is calculated daily and posted to your accounts monthly.
• All deposits or withdrawals from DP CASH and DP CASH PLUS will appear on monthly account statements and trade confirmations.
• Cash provided for deposit into DP CASH or DP CASH PLUS before 2 p.m. EST on a business day will generally be deposited to one or more Program Banks and begin accruing interest on the same day. Cash provided for deposit made after that time on a business day will generally begin accruing interest on the next business day upon deposit to the Program Bank.
• DP CASH SWEEP, DP CASH and DP CASH PLUS deposits are aggregated for FDIC insurance purposes, and deposited in the same insured deposit cash account at Program Banks. However, DP CASH PLUS deposits stand alone and are not aggregated with any other cash holdings in a customer account to determine interest rates or tiers.
• Funds deposited to DP CASH and DP CASH PLUS are not available for check writing, withdrawal or ACH. Funds must be held in the Cash Sweep Program to be eligible for new purchases, check writing, withdrawal and ACH. Consequently, you will need to sell DP CASH or DP CASH PLUS to move the cash into the Cash Sweep Program the business day before those funds are needed to cover these items.
