About Activity Statements

• Activity Statements include information about your account activity, which can be generated on a daily, monthly, and yearly basis for all accounts.
• Information included in an Activity Statement is presented in expandable and collapsible sections with click-down detail, and you can create customized statements to include or exclude individual sections. You can also choose to include closed accounts in your statement. You are notified via email when there is account activity.
• Activity Statements in Mobile Account Management include information about your account activity, which can be generated on a daily or monthly basis and for a custom date range for all accounts.
• Prices in statements are displayed with a minimum of four decimal places to a maximum of seven decimal places. Sections that display price include Trades and Open Positions.

Make a note of the following guidelines when viewing activity statements:

• Multi-account structures (Advisor, Broker, Institutions) can select one or more accounts from the Account(s) list.
• Monthly statements are generally available by five business days after the close of a month.
• Annual (yearly) statements are available by January 31 under normal circumstances.

Statement Cutoff Times

The statement cutoff time for commodities is generally 5:15 PM EST, and the statement cutoff time for securities is generally 8:20 PM EST. This means that any trades executed for those asset classes before the cutoff times will be reflected in your statement for the day.

IB-JP clients have a statement cutoff time of around 6:00 AM ET.
