2. Would you be able to serve the interest and repayment?

3. What much you can afford to lose?

4. How much risk you are willing to take?

Market

1. What is your view of the market?

2. Are you a very knowledgeable investor?

3. Would the potential gains outweigh the interest that you have to pay?

Financial Institution or Stockbroking Company

1. What are the fees and interest charges that you have to pay?

2. How is the margin calculated?

3. What is the margin call level and force-sell level?

4. What sort of shares are acceptable to the financial institution / stockbroking company?

5. How are the shares valued?

6. What are the terms and conditions for withdrawal?

7. How would the transactions be conducted?

These are some questions to be asked to yourself before you’re buying stocks with share margin financing.

Happy investing.
