Account protection with SIPC for no additional cost

Your Robinhood Retirement accounts are protected with SIPC at no additional cost to you.

Robinhood’s broker-dealers Robinhood Financial LLC and Robinhood Securities, LLC are members of the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC), which protects securities customers of its members up to $500,000 (including $250,000 for claims for cash). Explanatory brochure available upon request or at www.sipc.org.

We have purchased an additional insurance policy for Robinhood Markets, Inc., Robinhood Financial LLC, and Robinhood Securities, LLC to supplement SIPC protection. The additional insurance becomes available to customers in the event that SIPC limits are exhausted. This additional insurance policy provides protection for securities and cash up to an aggregate of $1 billion, and is limited to a combined return to any customer of $50 million in securities and $1.9 million in cash. Similar to SIPC protection, this additional insurance does not protect against a loss in the market value of securities.
