Bonds can be used as collateral for margin trading under certain conditions. The collateral value depends on the credit quality of the issuer or the bond. You can find the collateral value in the Trading Conditions (see image). For more information on the percentages, please refer to the Margin Information.
Lower rated bonds will not be accepted as collateral for margin trading. If you are unsure about the collateral value for a specific bond position, please contact your account executive.
