Which 3rd party broker is used in the US?

Hi All,
Apologies if this has already been asked.

I have been reading the FAQ’s to find out who holds our shares in the US. I have some concerns about what would happen if the broker goes under.

Anybody have info around this?

So nobody else touches the trade between Freetrade and the DTCC?

Drivewealth is the US broker.

Thanks, I will look them up. Much appreciated.
