Let’s Talk About Your Clients—and Your Growth
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 fluctuations 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 the securities to maintain equity, and (iii) possible adverse tax consequences as a result of selling securities.
