One concern is that the asset protection from SIPC and/or private insurance may be less robust than the protection you get in your “regular” brokerage account.





E*Trade has one of the weakest balance sheets in the online-broker space. During the financial crisis they were on the edge and look what happened to MF Global.. SIPC and FDIC insurance is limited so I use other firms.
