To make a withdrawal of funds, you must complete a Withdrawal Request.
While check withdrawal is free, there will be a charge for each bank wire withdrawal.
Click here to see a schedule of the fees charges for wires.
A withdrawal request will be processed only if the customer has sufficient available funds in excess of the initial margin requirement.
If a withdrawal request is rejected, the customer must re-enter the withdrawal request once there are sufficient available funds and equity in excess of the initial margin requirement.
All withdrawals will be in the name of the account holder because of anti-money laundering regulations. In the case of an electronic transfer, wires will only be sent to an external account in the name of the account holder.
