More Information
    Margin Loans vs. Securities Based Lending

You should understand the fundamental characteristics of traditional securities-based loans which ensure the financial viability of the funding process for both the borrower and the lender. Based on our experiences over time and our success in returning collateral to the borrower, most stock loans have:
A loan-to-value ratio (LTV) of under 80 percent;
A term of 36 months or longer; and
A favorable interest rate with regular quarterly interest-only payments.

The more informed you are about the lending process, the greater likelihood that we can successfully create a tailored solution to fit your funding needs.

What To Avoid When Choosing a Securities-Based Loan

High LTV
Avoid unrealistically high loan-to-value ratios. In our experience, the closer the LTV approaches 100 percent of the total asset value, the less likely it is that the lender will be capable of hedging the position and generating sufficient capital in order to return the securities at the end of the loan term.

Full recourse loans
Additional liability, fees, and penalties may be assessed.

Short loan term
Be cautious of loan terms that are less than three years, especially when the LTV is higher than 75 percent. That’s because there is insufficient time for the lender to leverage pledged collateral conservatively in a financially profitable and sound manner for all concerned.

High interest rate
Certain lenders may offer a loan with no interest payments during the life of the loan. However, the interest is usually compounded and set at a higher rate and then becomes due in full upon loan termination. In this case, the “true” cost of funds may be hidden (either intentionally or unintentionally) from the borrower until the loan term ends and the borrower discovers that he or she owes significantly more than the actual loan value.

Poor documentation and communication
You should get detailed documentation and timely notification of interest payments due. A legitimate lender will also notify you promptly if your loan goes into default because of a significant decrease in collateral value. However, it should notify you how to “cure” your default and keep the loan current and viable.

What cannot be used as collateral:

*Can be converted to cash then securities may be purchased and used as collateral.
