About National Financial Services, LLC
Providing Dependable Clearing Services
on a platform specializing in advisor growth and client security.
One of the most important decisions you make as a business owner on behalf of your clients is the custodian of assets. It directly affects clients’ statements, the maintenance fees they pay, and the asset protection they desire.
Clearing for Queen City Financial Advisors is provided by National Financial Services, LLC (NFS), a wholly-owned Fidelity Investments Company. The firm specializes in providing a platform for advisor growth and client security. As a well-established leader in clearing services, and one of the largest members of the New York Stock Exchange, NFS is a valued business partner with the economies of scale for long-term stability and service.
The custodian and clearing services provider is accountable for the safe custody of client assets introduced by the registered representative of record, access to securities listed on all major exchanges including the over-the-counter market, and comprehensive reporting for clear and timely client statements. At Queen City Financial Advisors, we believe the separation of responsibilities between custodian, broker/dealer and advisor is vital to clients’ security in today’s market environment. Likewise, close cooperation among the three ensures a consistently extraordinary service experience.
All customer brokerage accounts are carried by National Financial Services LLC (NFS), a Fidelity Investments company. Investments carried by NFS are protected in accordance with the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC) up to $500,000 (including cash claims limited to $100,000). For details, please see www.sipc.org. NFS has also arranged additional protection for cash and securities to supplement the firm’s SIPC coverage. This additional protection covers total account net equity in excess of the $500,000 / $100,000 coverage provided by the SIPC. Neither coverage protects against a decline in the market value of securities. An explanatory brochure is available upon request.
