What are Stock Loans?

Stock Loans also known as securities lending are financial transactions in which an owner of stock (the lender) temporarily loans their shares to another party (the borrower), often in exchange for collateral.

The purpose of these loans in main varies, but they are typically used to facilitate activities such as short selling, hedging, or enhancing liquidity in the stock market.

Stock loans can be used for company directors where company directors pledge their shares in the company they manage as collateral to borrow funds or engage in certain financial activities. While this can be a way for directors to unlock liquidity from their equity holdings.

Purpose of Stock Loans for Directors:

• Liquidity: Directors may borrow against their shares to access liquidity without having to sell their stock holdings.
• Investment: They may use the loan to invest in other ventures or assets.
• Personal Expenses: Directors might also borrow for personal purposes, using their shares as collateral.
