Stifel Financial's Comment on Competition and Industry Peers
We compete with other securities firms, some of which offer their customers a
broader range of brokerage services, have substantially greater resources, and
may have greater operating efficiencies. In addition, we face increasing competition
from other financial institutions, such as commercial banks, online service providers,
and other companies offering financial services. The Financial Modernization Act,
signed into law in late 1999, lifted restrictions on banks and insurance companies,
permitting them to provide financial services once dominated by securities firms.
In addition, recent consolidation in the financial services industry may lead
to increased competition from larger, more diversified organizations.
