For execution and clearing services, GCS has partnered with Pershing LLC (Pershing). Pershing is a subsidiary of the Bank of New York Mellon Corporation. Pershing is one of the largest and most respected securities clearing firms in the nation. Pershing provides the highest level of excess account protection available in the investment industry today. The Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC) provides $500, 000 of coverage, including $100, 000 for claims for cash awaiting reinvestment. The account protection applies when a SIPC member firm fails financially and is unable to meet its obligations to its securities clients. The account protection, however, does not protect against losses from the rise and fall in the market value of investments. More information about SIPC is available from their web site at www.sipc.org. For additional security, Pershing provides coverage in excess of SIPC limits through Lloyd's of London. The Lloyd's of London insurance policy provides for an aggregate loss limit of $1 billion for eligible securities over all client accounts with a per client loss limit of $1.9 million for cash awaiting reinvestment within the aggregate loss limit of $1 billion.
