(1) Customer cash balances held by third parties are held outside
E*TRADE Financial and include money market funds and sweep deposit
accounts at unaffiliated financial institutions.
(2) Net new customer assets are total inflows to all new and existing
customer accounts less total outflows from all closed and existing
customer accounts. The net new banking assets and net new brokerage
assets metrics treat asset flows between E*TRADE entities in the same
manner as unrelated third party accounts.
Historical metrics and financials can be found on E*TRADE Financial’s
investor relations website at https://investor.etrade.com.
