How are the bank accounts structured within the Insured Bank Deposit Sweep Program?

The bank accounts at each bank use an Omnibus account structure and are opened under Interactive Brokers’ name. The account title makes it clear that the funds in the account are held for the benefit of IBKR’s customers. The bank does not know the names of individual customers. IBKR and the program administrator have records showing how much each client has at each bank and, in the event of a bank default, would provide the records to FDIC.
