Upcoming Changes To Schwab Money Markets

By Mari Adam on March 26, 2018 in Company & Community News, Investing

Our Schwab clients will shortly see changes to their money market accounts.

Clients will be moving to Schwab’s Bank Sweep feature, which allows uninvested cash to earn interest, enjoy FDIC-insured protection, and remain readily accessible for purchasing investments and managing daily expenses.

At many brokerage firms including Schwab, money market funds and cash sweep accounts were redesigned after the 2008 financial crisis to provide investors with additional protections and ensure continued access to stable, $1-per-share money market funds or cash sweep solutions to meet cash management needs.

FDIC insurance protection is a benefit many clients will appreciate. Additional details on the new bank deposit feature can be accessed by logging on to Schwab Alliance or by visiting schwab.com.
