You, our clients, are people who prefer to maintain control of the decision-making process of your investments as opposed to those who rely on a full-service investment advisory firm. Whether an active trader, an investor who buys and holds, or an occasional trader, you all have one exception in common: you want - and have every right to expect - professional, reliable brokerage services.
This includes simplicity of opening accounts via email, fax, telephone, and mail; real-time quotes; timely confirmation slips and monthly account statements for active accounts or quarterly statements for inactive accounts; availability of registered brokers; safekeeping services and protection provided by SIPC and CAPCO to include coverage up to each customer's Full Net Equity of Securities and Cash. Our reputation for such reliability is one of the most important factors in our success.
By choice, we limit our products to stocks, bonds, mutual funds, self-directed IRAs, SEP IRAs, Simple IRAs, Roth IRAs, qualified retirement plans, college savings plans, 529 plans, options, and Treasuries. If you want help with precious metals, commodities, or annuities, we will be happy to refer you to someone who can help you.
In this day of "customer service," there is a tendency for some businesses to equate a cheerful telephone voice with personal service. At J.D. Seibert & Company, we look at things a little differently. We believe that customer service is based on knowing our customers and accommodating our service to their particular needs.
We are a company that works hard at providing convenience and ease to our customers.This may mean dropping by your home to pick up a security if needed, going to your bank to deposit a check in your account, giving stock quotes whenever desired, or a number of other conveniences.
While big means better to many of our competitors, we don't think there is any substitute for a relationship based on personal knowledge.There is a reason we have stayed small and it has everything to do with what we mean by personal service.
Through our affiliation with Ridge Clearing & Outsourcing Solutions, Inc. ("Ridge Clearing") each customer account is protected by SIPC (Securities Investment Protection Corporation) and customers are afforded benefits under the Securities Investor Protection Act of 1970. SIPC provides protection up to a $500,000 limit, of which $100,000 may be for cash balances. Ridge Clearing, member SIPC, provides additional protection ("Excess SIPC") through Customer Asset Protection Company (CAPCO), a licensed New York insurer. This includes all customer accounts that are cleared through Ridge Clearing by its introducing broker-dealer clientele. This means that your securities are protected in the event of losses resulting from J.D. Seibert & Company, Inc.'s liquidation or insolvency (account protection does not include losses due to market fluctuations). SIPC is a nonprofit member organization of broker-dealers created to protect customers of members who, for some reason, can't meet their financial obligations to their customers. Please visit SIPC's website at http://www.sipc.org/.
CAPCO: Customer Asset Protection Company Customer Asset Protection Company ("CAPCO") was formed in late 2003 to provide securities account protection for institutional and individual brokerage accounts of certain securities firms over the protection limits currently provided by the Securities Investor Protection Corporation ("SIPC") in the United States. CAPCO issued its first surety bond in early 2004.
The excess protection (sometimes referred to as "Excess SIPC") is provided to the securities affiliates of the 15 participants in the form of bonding coverage. The Excess SIPC protection would be triggered only in the event of the financial failure and liquidation of a participating securities affiliate and if the customer's securities are not returned. This protection does not cover investment losses in customer accounts due to market fluctuation or other claims for losses incurred while these securities affiliates remain in business. The Excess SIPC protection is also not triggered unless the customer's account exceeds the limits of account protection provided by SIPC. Other restrictions apply as contained in the bond.

All clients want clear, timely reports and flexible procedures. Both are priorities at J.D. Seibert & Company. We have an in-house news service and access to Value Line ratings and reports. In addition, we make every effort to fill special requests for securities related information.

A computer-generated confirmation statement will be sent to you the next business day after a transaction. This report will show price, number of shares bought or sold, and the commission fees incurred by the transaction.
A monthly statement is sent which shows any activity in your account for the previous 30 days, including interest and dividends earned, status of your margin cash balance, and end-of-month positions and prices. If an account is determined to be inactive, no monthly statement will be sent. Instead, statements for inactive accounts will be sent on a quarterly basis or for any month in which there is account activity. Since information is cumulative, all the information required by the IRS will be on your December statement.
