LTV ratio

BEQUANT uses a Loan-To-Value Ratio methodology to manage loans.

The Loan to Value Ratio (aka LTV Ratio) represents the ratio of the market value of the digital assets that the client has borrowed to the market value of the total sum of the Eligible Collateral.

Eligible collateral

Eligible collateral is an asset that a lender accepts as security for a loan. If the borrower defaults on the loan payments, the lender can seize the collateral and resell it to recoup the losses.

Available assets

Available assets is the amount of your eligible collateral that is available to withdraw or to use on trading, if the amount turns negative, you have to top up your account with eligible collateral equal to this amount (margin call amount).

LTV levels, margin call & liquidation rules

BEQUANT monitors two LTV levels: Initial and Liquidation.

These levels vary depending on the the amount and type of collateral* posted and terms of the loan granted

If your Loan-to-Value ratio falls below the Initial LTV Level BEQUANT will issue you with a Margin Call. You have twelve hours to add additional funds to your Account such that your LTV Ratio goes back above the Initial Level.

If your Loan-to-Value ratio falls below the Liquidation LTV Level, or if you have not responded to a Margin Call within twelve hours, BEQUANT reserves the right to commence liquidating your account until it determines that a sufficient amount of the loan has been repaid.

Sensible risk management should be employed when using leveraged positions: We recommend you set both a stop loss and a profit target for every opened position.
