If the price of securities drops or margin ratio of a particular security is lowered, the facility amount borrowed by the client may be higher than the total margin value of securities, which results in "margin call" on the client's account.

Scenario 1: If the margin limit of HK$1.6 million has been fully utilised and the total margin value of securities has increased significantly, client may contact us to further increase the margin limit, and enjoy a larger standby facility limit

Scenario 2: If the margin limit of HK$1.6 million has been fully utilised and the value of the securities in the account has dropped, resulting in a decrease in the total value of securities, settlement of margin call will be triggered. For example, if the "total margin value of securities" has dropped to HK$1.2 million, client has to settle margin call of HK$400,000.

Under normal circumstances, we will notify clients via SMS or email to immediately deposit sufficient funds or specified securities to settle the balance of the loan. If the margin call situation is severe, we have the rights to force liquidate securities in the client's account.

We reserve the rights to revise any terms and conditions without prior notice. In case of any dispute, we reserve the right of final decision.

Risk disclosure: This service shall not be regarded or constituted as any suggestion or recommendation to any person concerning any of the above investment products or items by us. Investment involves risks, and the price of securities fluctuates, sometimes dramatically. The price of a security may move up or down and may become valueless. It is as likely that losses will be incurred rather than profit made as a result of buying and selling securities. There are risks in authorizing GTJAS by margin financing client to deposit securities as collateral for loans or advances made to or repaying indebtedness for or fulfilling settlement obligation of the margin financing client.


1. The risk of loss in depositing collateral to obtain financing for trading may be substantial. Client may suffer loss that exceeds the cash collateral deposited with the relevant securities company and any other assets.

2. Market conditions may cause the exercise of alternative instructions for buy and sell, such as "Stop-loss order" or "Limit order", not exercisable.

3. According to the conditions of market fluctuation, clients may be required to deposit additional funds for margin or pay interest in a short period of time.

4. If client fails to pay the required margin or interest within the specified time, the collateral of the client may be liquidated without his/her/its consent.

5. Client shall be responsible for any outstanding debts and payable interest accrued in the client's account.

6. Clients should consider carefully whether such financing arrangement is suitable for them according to their financial conditions and investment objectives.

1. There is a risk if client provides us with an authority to apply client's securities or securities collateral pursuant to a securities borrowing and lending agreement, re-pledge his/her/its securities collateral for financial accommodation or deposit his/her/its securities collateral as collateral for the discharge and satisfaction of his/her/its settlement obligations and liabilities.

2. If client's securities or securities collateral are received or held by him/her/it in Hong Kong/Macau, the above arrangement is allowed only if the client gives consent in writing. Moreover, unless the client is a professional investor, his/her/its authority must specify the period for which it is current and be limited to not more than 12 months. If the client is a professional investor, these restrictions do not apply.

3. Additionally, client's authority may be deemed to be renewed (i.e. without his/her/its written consent) if securities company issues the client a reminder at least 14 days prior to the expiry of the authority, and the client does not object to such deemed renewal before the expiry date of the then existing authority.

4. The client is not required by any law to sign these authorities.  But an authority is required by securities company, for example, to facilitate margin lending to the client or to allow client's securities or securities collateral to be lent to or deposited as collateral with third parties.  The securities company should explain to the client the purposes for which one of these authorities is to be used.

5. If the client signs one of these authorities and his/her/its securities collateral are lent to or deposited with third parties, those third parties will have a lien or charge on the client's securities collateral.  Although the securities company is responsible to the client for securities or securities collateral lent or deposited under the client's authority, a default by it could result in the loss of client's securities or securities collateral.

6. A cash account not involving securities borrowing and lending is available from securities company. If the client does not require margin facilities or does not wish his/her/its securities or securities collateral to be lent or pledged, the client should not sign the above authorities and should ask to open this type of cash account.
