Item
7.01  Regulation FD Disclosure.

On
September 21 and 22, 2010, Stifel Financial Corp. (the "Company") will present
to institutional clients as part of a road show program hosted by Keefe,
Bruyette & Woods. The presentation slides to be used
on the road show are unchanged from the presentation slides that were filed as
Exhibit 99.1 to the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed on
September 14, 2010, and are incorporated herein by reference hereto.
The
slides, which are incorporated by reference, are being furnished pursuant to
Item 7.01, and the information contained therein shall not be deemed "filed" for
the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(the "Exchange Act"), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section,
nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be
expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing. 
The
presentation slides incorporated by reference to this
Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1 contain certain statements that may be deemed to be
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities
Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. All
statements in this report not dealing with historical results are
forward-looking and are based on various assumptions. The forward-looking
statements in this report are subject to risks and uncertainties that could
cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by
the statements. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from
those contemplated by such forward-looking statements include, among other
things, the following possibilities: the ability to successfully integrate and
manage our acquired businesses; a material adverse change in the financial
condition; the risk of borrower, depositor and other customer attrition; a
change in general business and economic conditions; changes in the interest rate
environment, deposit flows, loan demand, real estate values, and competition;
changes in accounting principles, policies or guidelines; changes in legislation
and regulation; other economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory,
geopolitical, and technological factors affecting the companies' operations,
pricing, and services; and other risk factors referred to from time to time in
filings made by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Forward-looking statements speak only as to the date they are made. The Company
does not undertake to update forward-looking statements to reflect circumstances
or events that occur after the date the forward-looking statements are made. The
Company disclaims any intent or obligation to update these forward-looking
statements.
