Do broker-dealers participate in the DTC?

Although many large U.S. broker-dealers participate in the DTC, it’s not mandatory. It's wise to know your broker's clearing firm and its DTC number for assurance, since it confirms who is physically or electronically holding your securities, often done by the DTC. The DTC publishes the full list of participants and updates it periodically.
