Brooke,

I don’t see any mention of Century Securities in your list of new custodians, is their business different than the three others you mentioned?

Thanks,

Kevin

Hi Kevin,

I’d be interested in learning more about Century Securities. If they’re a rising RIA custodian then I’d like to learn more about them.

thanks,
