Helping ensure your money is accessible

Our Cash Sweep Program automatically “sweeps” uninvested cash balances into a Cash Sweep Option until such balances are invested or otherwise used to satisfy obligations arising in the account. The available Cash Sweep Options currently offered are:

• Wells Fargo Advisors Standard Bank Deposit Sweep
• Wells Fargo Advisors Expanded Bank Deposit Sweep
• Money Market Fund Sweep

Eligibility is based on the type of investment account and nature of account ownership. Wells Fargo Advisors reserves the right to change the eligibility criteria for the Cash Sweep Program and Cash Sweep Options.

With both the Expanded and Standard Bank Deposit Sweep, the more assets you hold with us, the higher your interest rate will typically be for your cash deposited into the Sweep Program. Other benefits include the ability to receive up to $250,000 in Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insurance per depositor, per insured bank, for each ownership category (single, joint, trust, etc). In the Expanded Bank Deposit Sweep Program, depending on market conditions and/or the size of your account, cash may be swept to only affiliated Banks, to only unaffiliated Banks, or to a mix of both.

Additional information is contained in the Cash Sweep Program Disclosure Statement (PDF).

All deposits, including certificates of deposit, you maintain at a Program Bank, whether placed directly with the Program Bank or through an intermediary (such as Wells Fargo Advisors or another broker), will be aggregated for purposes of determining your FDIC insurance coverage. Your deposits (including principal and interest) at each Program Bank are eligible for FDIC insurance up to $250,000 per depositor for each ownership category. If your total deposits at a Program Bank exceed the applicable FDIC insurance limit, the amount over the limit will not be insured by the FDIC and you should carefully consider whether to arrange for the direct investment of those amounts. Please note that you, and not Wells Fargo Advisors, are responsible for monitoring the total amount of your deposits at the Program Banks in order to determine the extent of FDIC insurance coverage available.

Insurance is subject to FDIC rules, including for pass-through coverage, which require certain conditions to be satisfied for deposit insurance coverage to apply. Wells Fargo Advisors is not an FDIC-insured depository institution; FDIC deposit insurance only protects against the failure of an insured depository institution. Banking products and services provided by Program Banks, including Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. Member FDIC.
