PLEASE READ THE IMPORTANT DISCLOSURES BELOW.

Banking products and services are provided by Morgan Stanley Private Bank, National Association, Member FDIC.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Options and futures transactions are complex and involve a high degree of risk, are intended for sophisticated investors and are not suitable for all investors. For more information, please read the Characteristics and Risks of Standardized Options and Risk Disclosure Statement for Futures and Options before you begin trading options. Supporting documentation for any claims made regarding options will be supplied upon request.

Futures margin, also known as a “performance bond,” is the amount of money you are required to deposit in your account to open and hold a futures position. Unlike margin trading in the equity market, futures margin is not a loan. The amount of initial margin (i.e., required upfront capital) is small relative to the notional value of the futures contract. A relatively small market movement will have a proportionately larger impact on the funds you have deposited or will have to deposit, which may work against you as well as for you. You may sustain a total loss of your initial investment, any additional funds deposited to maintain your position, or potentially amounts exceeding your initial investment or the prior days’ minimum regulatory requirements, and which may require you to deposit additional funds into your account to satisfy any resulting debits. If the funds in your account drop below the minimum regulatory requirement at any given time, you may be called upon to pay substantial additional funds on short notice to maintain your position or your position may be automatically liquidated at a loss and you will be liable for any resulting deficit.As a general matter, E*TRADE Futures does not permit physical delivery of commodities or digital assets. Customers that hold futures to maturity may be subject to immediate liquidation including at a loss and appliable fees.

Consolidation is not right for everyone, so you should carefully consider your options. Before deciding whether to retain assets in a retirement plan account through a former employer, roll them over to a qualified retirement plan account through a new employer (if one is available and rollovers are permitted), or roll them over to an IRA, an investor should consider all his or her options and the various factors including, but not limited to, the differences in investment options, fees and expenses, services, the exceptions to the early withdrawal penalties, protection from creditors and legal judgments, required minimum distributions, the tax treatment of employer stock (if held in the qualified retirement plan account), and the availability of plan loans (i.e., loans are not permitted from IRAs, and the availability of loans from a qualified retirement plan will depend on the terms of the plan). For additional information, view the FINRA Website.
