Is Broad Financial safe?+

Broad Financial uses a checkbook control ira model and scores 66/100 in our independent review, including 70/100 on custody security. No single institution can unilaterally move funds. Safety depends on your priorities; see the full score breakdown above.

Is my bitcoin insured at Broad Financial?+

What happens to my bitcoin if Broad Financial fails?+

Broad Financial's architecture distributes control, so no single institution's failure alone can move or lose your bitcoin. Recovery depends on the specific structure; see the custody section above.

Does Broad Financial support inheritance?+

Broad Financial does not advertise a dedicated inheritance or beneficiary feature in the data we track. Confirm current options with the provider, since custody inheritance handling changes.
