Loan Uses
Securities-based lending is a non-purpose margin loan secured by eligible, marketable securities. It is non-purpose because the proceeds of the line of credit cannot be used to purchase securities. Securities based lending has special risks and is not suitable for all investors. The risk of securities based lending include (i) market flucuations that may cause the value of pledged assets to decline, (ii) a decline in the value of the pledged securities that could result in selling of the securities to maintain equity, and (iii) possible adverse tax consequences as a result of selling securities and (iv) the potential increase in interest rates.
