Our relationship with LPL Financial was forged with our clients in mind. This relationship enables us to provide clients with a number of safeguards that may help them as they work toward financial confidence.

The LPL Financial SIPC Membership provides account protection up to a maximum of $500,000 per customer, of which $250,000 may be claims for cash. An explanatory brochure is available at www.sipc.org.

Additionally, through London Insurers, LPL Financial accounts have additional securities protection to cover the net equity of customer accounts up to an overall aggregate firm limit of $575,000,000 subject to conditions and limitations.

The account protection applies when an SIPC member firm fails financially and is unable to meet obligations to securities clients, but it does not protect against losses from the rise and fall in the market value of investments.

LPL Financial does not have proprietary products. This allows them to focus on providing comprehensive services to their client base - financial advisors. This, in turn, allows LPL financial advisors, like those at Midtown Financial Group, to focus on clients' specific needs.
