    The taxpayer is responsible for filing their own taxes accurately not their brokerage firms.   In North America broker/dealers assist their clients by providing information needed to file an accurate tax form.   

    Like all reported activity it is the responsibility of the tax payer so it is in their best interest to maintain their own records - that' why there are spread sheets.

    Calculate the information, just like you would to verify your 1099-B is accurate.
