# Brokerage Statement Splitter Skill

> Split files containing brokerage statements with multiple accounts into separate documents for downstream extraction by the Brokerage Statement skill.

The **Brokerage Statement Splitter** skill splits files containing brokerage statements for multiple accounts into separate documents — one per account — so each can be processed by the **Brokerage Statement** skill.

<Note>
  The Brokerage Statement Splitter skill has only one class, called "Brokerage Statement." For this reason, you cannot use this skill to separate brokerage statements from other types of documents or annexes.
