ACATS stands for Automated Customer Account Transfer Service. It is an electronic transfer system operated through the National Securities Clearing Corporation (NSCC) that automates and standardizes the transfer of eligible assets between participating brokerage firms and/or banks. ACATS can be used to request a full or partial transfer of eligible positions and, where supported, cash from another participating firm. Availability depends on the delivering firm, the receiving firm, the account type and the instruments being transferred.
Clients can submit an ACATS transfer request online by selecting the relevant transfer option in the Client Portal and providing the details of the external account from which the assets should be transferred.
