| CFDs Financing costs | |
|---|---|
| CFD Financing | Bid/Offer financing rate +3pp / -2.5pp |
| The bid/offer financing refers to the financing price in individual currencies and is based on floating interest rates that vary for each of them. Our broker uses publicly available and internationally recognised Alternative Reference Rates (ARR) as the basis for calculating the financing rates. For currencies without a designated ARR, a money market rate, monetary policy rate or other relevant financial benchmark will apply as an input. The Bid/Offer Financing Rates have a floor of 0% and therefore cannot be negative. | |
|
If you keep a CFD position on single stocks and/or stock indices overnight, that is after the end of a trading day (23:00 CET), financing costs are charged. The calculation is daily but charged on a monthly basis. The CFDs Financing costs are calculated: CFD Finance = (Open Position Amount × Price × (Bid/Offer financing rate + (Mark-up or Markdown))) / 100 × Number of days / 360 or 365. The CFDs financing costs do not apply for positions opened and closed before the end of the trading day (on condition that the exchange on which the underlying is traded is opened) and on expiring of CFDs (commodity and Forex CFDs, and some stock index CFDs). Details on the mark-up applied to your CFDs positions is visible in the trading conditions of each CFDs product, while the historical CFD financing costs can be accessed under "Historic Reports > CFD Finance Details" in the platforms. |
|
| Borrowing costs on short positions in single stock CFDs | |
|---|---|
|
A minimum rate of 0.50% p.a. is charged on all overnight short positions in single stock CFDs. Generally, all short positions in single stocks CFDs held overnight, are subject to the cost of borrowing the underlying shares from the market. The fee varies according to the instrument, market conditions and the availability of shares to be borrowed. For instruments that are in high demand for short selling in the broader market, the cost of borrowing the underlying shares may increase. The estimated borrowing cost on a Single Stock CFD can be found in the platform under the Trading Conditions, as well as in the Trade Ticket. |
|
| Rollover on Forex Spot | |
|---|---|
|
Forex Spot positions held at the end of a trading day are rolled forward to the next available business day. For most of FX Spot the rollover takes place at 17:00 EST (New York - standard market convention to define the end of trading day). However, there are some exceptions, for ex. NZD rolls forward at 07.00 New Zealand Daylight Time.
The final rates of the Tom/Next and the Financing Interests are used to adjust the opening price of the position: New Rate = Open price + Forward Price + Financing Interest You can view the rollover history on your FX positions under the "Account > Historic reports > Forex Rollovers report". Rollovers do not apply to intraday FX positions. |

| The full list of market data fees is available in the live platforms. | ||
| By default, the quotes on all listed products (incl. CFDs on single stocks) are 15 minutes delay without live market data subscriptions. | ||
| The fees are monthly charged. | ||
| Exchanges require subscribers to renew their information bi-annually. Before the expiry date, you will be notified via the platform regarding the renewal of a subscription. | ||
| *Professional or Non-Professional. In order to obtain Live Market Data Fees on listed products, independently of whether a cost is applied or not, each user must subscribe to the Exchanges of interest and go through the assessment profile to define the type of categorization (if Professional or non-Professional). The final result will determine the type of fee that will be applied. Subscriptions must be done personally by each user. The finality is not to assess the account type but the person accessing and using the market data. The Exchanges have strict criteria to classify professional and non-professional investors, and these are not necessarily linked to the actual use of the account. These include, among them, the type of profession, company by which the subscriber is employed or the role on the account. They can lead to a professional classification of the subscriber, despite the fact that the account is not used professionally. Vendors and banks must diligently apply these rules and monitor that the classification of each user is compliant with the provisions of the exchanges. For this reason, if the self-classification given by a subscriber is not reflecting the definition given by the exchange or personal data are missing (such as name, surname, profession), Cornèrtrader has the right at any point in time to amend the data, cancel the original subscription and/or adjust it to the correct segmentation, without prior notice. In this case, the monthly fee will be charged according to the correct segment. Generally, non-Professionals are intended to be only private individuals using the data for personal investments. However, for most of the Exchanges worldwide (included Swiss, Europeans and Americans) private individuals, who are working in the financial sector, employed by a financial institution, independently of the job performed, or whose activity can be qualified as financial advisory (this can be typically the case of independent financial advisors) are categorized as professionals. Corporates are categorized as Professional, regardless of the type and purpose of the subscription. Before subscribing, please refer to the rules of each Exchange available in the subscription tool on the platforms and read the criteria applied to them. In this process, Cornèrtrader cannot influence in any way the segmentation rules as defined by the exchanges and must apply these very strictly. |
