Securities-Backed Line of Credit (SBLOC)
How does my client access the line of credit?
Once the line of credit is in place, your client may access the available credit through one of the following disbursement methods: by requesting a wire transfer, by using Online Banking or by using line of credit checks. Your client may select the check option when completing the line of credit application or at any time after the account is opened. You may order line of credit checks on behalf of your client by calling us at 833.922.0883 or your client may call 833.922.0882.
Can my client continue to use the securities account check-writing privileges?
Check writing privileges associated with the securities account held at your firm will be terminated when the account is pledged as collateral and the new SBLOC becomes available. Remember, the SBLOC offers check-writing access.
Is trading permitted within the securities account that is being used as collateral for my client’s SBLOC? Yes, trading within the securities account being used as collateral for the client’s SBLOC is permitted. However, major changes in the asset allocation of the securities account might reduce the amount available to the client to borrow.
What if a security in the securities account is no longer eligible to serve as collateral, or if while trading in the securities account, an ineligible security is purchased?
Ineligible securities held in the securities account held at your firm will be automatically excluded from collateral valuation, and the SBLOC limit will be adjusted accordingly and in certain circumstances, a request for additional assets could be triggered.
What happens if my client’s securities go down in value?
Depending on the relationship between the value of your client’s securities account, the SBLOC credit limit and the amount, if any, that has been borrowed, devaluation of collateral may:
- have no consequence;
- limit access to funds; and/or
- require a deposit of additional assets or an immediate payment
If the value of the collateral falls significantly, the Bank may contact your client to request that additional funds be placed into the collateral account. If your client’s credit limit is reduced due to a change in collateral value, it is subject to increase as your client’s pledged securities gain in value.
What would cause the credit limit on my client’s SBLOC to be reduced?
The credit limit is automatically reduced if the borrowing power or “Advance Rate” value of the pledged securities no longer supports the approved credit limit. It is important that your client verify both the current credit limit and available credit before requesting advances or writing checks, as no specific notice is provided if the credit limit changes.
How does my client make payments or pay off the line of credit?
Your client may request to have their loan account paid off in full and closed. For more information about making payments or to get a payoff quote, click here or call 833.922.0883 .
Will my client receive a Form 1098 for the interest paid on their line of credit?
Your client will not receive a tax form for the line of credit. A Form 1098 is used to report mortgage interest of $600 or more. Learn More
Can my client initiate an automatic payment (ACH Debit) from their account at another financial institution to draw on the line of credit?
Automatic payments (ACH Debit) initiated by a third party such as a financial institution to draw funds from the line of credit are prohibited. ACH Debits will be rejected. Please note that fees may be assessed by the initiating third party when ACH Debit transactions are rejected.
