WFG provides brokerage, advisory and investment services to over 280 independent Financial Professionals, whose clients are primarily individual investors and select institutions. A privately held, independent firm, WFG is not held accountable to a group of shareholders or a board of directors.

He was determined to create an environment for advisors, like himself, who wanted independence. Wilson continues to be personally engaged in the day-to-day management and long-term future of the firm. This translates into a corporate culture that understands the advisor and client relationship and always puts the client at the forefront of everything they do.

10 Your Clearing Firm Fidelity s Clearing Firm, National Financial Services, LLC One of the Largest Clearing Providers in the Industry. 15 National Financial Services, LLC (NFS) offers brokerdealer firms a comprehensive clearing platform that includes a dedicated service model, a powerful global trading platform, and a source of leading investment solutions, all designed to help them grow confidently. A leading clearing provider in the U.S. for over 30 years, NFS leverages the strength, resources, and experience of the Fidelity organization, one of the world s largest providers of financial services. As of March 31, 2012, NFS serves nearly 280 broker/ dealers representing over $410 billion in assets under administration. Regulatory Controls for Your Protection As a clearing firm, National Financial Services, LLC is subject to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), and other exchanges of which National Financial Services, LLC is a member, and the Municipal Securities Rule-making Board (MSRB). These regulatory organizations each have rules and regulations that NFS must follow to safeguard your assets, including: Keeping accurate records of your assets held at NFS Maintaining net capital at required levels In compliance with SEC rules, NFS has its financial information audited every year by an independent public accounting firm. Further, as a member of the NYSE and FINRA and registered with the SEC, NFS is subject to their regulatory oversight and examinations

11 NFS is required by the SEC to file monthly and quarterly financial and operational reports (FOCUS reports) within 17 business days of the month s end. 17 The quarterly report contains financial statements, including: Statement of financial condition Income statement and statement of changes in stockholders equity Regulatory schedules, including a computation of net capital, a reserve formula computation, and other key financial and operational data NFS cannot use your fully paid securities for its business. These securities must be held for your own exclusive benefit, and are subject to the instructions that we provide to NFS. NFS must account for and inspect every physical security owned by an investor at least once every calendar quarter. Any differences must be recorded and corrected within specific time frames. Net customer cash balances not required for customer transactions must be maintained in a cash account segregated for the exclusive benefit of customers. Because the Securities Investor Protection Act of 1970 affords special benefits to SIPC-covered firms such as NFS, our agreement with NFS, provides your assets a high level of coverage. Securities in accounts carried by NFS are protected in accordance with the SIPC up to $500,000 (including cash claims limited to $250,000). Most types of securities held in a brokerage account at NFS are protected, including: Stocks Debentures Bonds Certificates of Deposit (CDs) Notes Mutual Funds. Within certain limits, SIPC coverage applies to both investor securities held by NFS and cash on deposit that will be used to purchase securities, or that has been generated from the sale of securities. This SIPC coverage protects your assets in the unlikely event that NFS should fail to meet its obligations, but this SIPC coverage is separate from the SIPC coverage that is available should our broker-dealer fail to meet its obligations. It also does not protect against a decline in the market value of your securities. For more details concerning SIPC coverage, please see: For more information, please visit:

12 19 Safeguarding Your Accounts Added Security Asset Protection Fidelity Bond Securities in accounts carried by NFS, a Fidelity Investments company, are protected in accordance with the SIPC up to $500,000. The $500,000 total amount of SIPC protection is inclusive of up to $250,000 protection for claims for cash, subject to periodic adjustments for inflation in accordance with terms of the SIPC statute and approval by SIPC s Board of Directors. NFS also has arranged for coverage above these limits. Neither coverage protects against a decline in the market value of securities, nor does either coverage extend to certain securities that are considered ineligible for coverage. An additional client asset protection coverage provided by the financial services industry is the Fidelity or financial institution bond. This coverage is designed to cover non-insolvency problems, such as employee or systems theft, fraud, or loss of assets. For more details on SIPC, or to request an SIPC brochure, visit: or call Excess of SIPC Coverage In addition to SIPC protection, NFS provides for brokerage accounts additional excess of SIPC coverage from Lloyd s of London together with other insurers.1 The excess of SIPC coverage would only be used when SIPC coverage is exhausted. Like SIPC protection, excess of SIPC protection does not cover investment losses in customer accounts due to market fluctuation. It also does not cover other claims for losses incurred while broker-dealers remain in business. Total aggregate excess of SIPC coverage available through NFS s excess of SIPC policy is $1 billion. Within NFS s excess of SIPC coverage, there is no per account dollar limit on coverage of securities, but there is a per account limit of $1.9 million on coverage of cash. This is the maximum excess of SIPC protection currently available in the brokerage industry. Lloyd s of London currently has an A (Excellent) rating with Stable Outlook from ratings firm A.M. Best2 and an A+ (Strong) rating with Stable Outlook from Fitch Ratings3 and Positive Outlook from Standard & Poor s.3 1 Fidelity s excess of SIPC insurance is provided by Lloyd s of London together with Axis Specialty Europe Ltd. and Munich Reinsurance Co. 2 As of July As of August Ratings and outlook are subject to change.
