Frequently Asked Questions

How is margin interest calculated?

Margin Interest = Amount Borrowed x Annual Interest Rate x (Days / Day-Count Basis). Most brokers use a 360-day year for this calculation, though some use 365.

Why do brokers charge margin interest daily instead of just once?

Margin loans accrue interest daily on your outstanding balance, similar to a credit card, so the interest owed grows the longer you hold the borrowed position open.
