Confirm You’re Serving E*TRADE — Not Morgan Stanley

E*TRADE was acquired by Morgan Stanley in October 2020 and now operates as “E*TRADE from Morgan Stanley.” However, E*TRADE Securities LLC remains a separate legal entity from Morgan Stanley. If your dispute involves an E*TRADE brokerage account, you must serve E*TRADE Securities LLC — not Morgan Stanley. E*TRADE Financial LLC is the holding company entity, and E*TRADE Capital Management LLC is the registered investment adviser arm. Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC is Morgan Stanley’s legacy wealth management broker-dealer and is completely separate from E*TRADE. Check your account statement or customer agreement for the exact legal entity name — all use CSC at the same Sacramento address.
