Is lehman Brothers 401K accounts still protected by SIPC?

Lehman Brothers' 401(k) accounts, like other retirement accounts, are generally not protected by the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC) because SIPC primarily covers brokerage accounts against the loss of cash and securities due to a firm's failure. Instead, 401(k) plans are typically protected under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA). However, the specific protections can vary based on the plan's structure and the type of investments held within the account. It's advisable for former Lehman Brothers employees to consult financial advisors or legal experts for detailed guidance.
