OTOH the financial system is strong enough. I read only a few cases when actual damage was rendered. From my Ameritrade account first page: Asset Protection Guarantee If you lose cash or securities from your account due to unauthorized activity, we’ll reimburse you for the cash or shares of securities you lost. We’re promising you this protection, which adds to the provisions that already govern your account, in case unauthorized activity ever occurs and we determine it was through no fault of your own.
