Customized Prime Brokerage Solutions

Financing

We offer an effective framework to facilitate funding needs at highly competitive rates. TD Securities simplifies your funding process by financing your “net” daily balances.

Margin

TD Securities may provide leverage based on an assessment of your overall portfolio.

Securities lending

TD Securities’ lending desk excels at finding difficult-to-borrow securities. In addition to large internal holdings, our securities lending team has access to a large network of securities lenders. Our experienced staff is able to provide “colour” on borrows prior to the execution of a strategy so you can make informed decisions regarding the risks of establishing a short position. In addition, we are proactive in keeping clients informed on deal stocks.

TD Securities’ large balances with institutions have built strong relationships with the securities lenders. These relationships are instrumental in helping to reduce the risk of recall and buy-ins as well as in allowing us to lower the costs of borrowing securities.

Clearance and settlement

We confirm and settle trades that are executed at other institutions and any discrepancies are reported back to you on a timely basis so that they can be quickly resolved.

Custody

In addition to holding your assets, our custody service includes dividend and interest collection and payment, notification of proxy related information and processing of all corporate action activities. Our Prime Brokerage team works with you to ensure your instructions are executed promptly and accurately.

Technology

Our Prime Brokerage Platform provides access to a comprehensive and dynamic set of reports. Reports are updated at the end of each business day (Eastern Standard Time) and can be easily downloaded into your analytical tool of choice.

We constantly evolve our technology to provide efficiencies in automated trade input, reconciliation and portfolio management. We are committed to making it easier for you to monitor and control risk as well as meet the demands of clearance and settlement for high transaction volumes and compressed settlement times.
