English term or phrase: margin call
Definition from Investopedia:
A margin call occurs when the value of an investor's margin account falls below the broker's required amount. An investor's margin account contains securities bought with borrowed money (typically a combination of the investor's own money and money borrowed from the investor's broker). A margin call refers specifically to a broker's demand that an investor deposit additional money or securities into the account so that it is brought up to the minimum value, known as the maintenance margin.

Example sentence(s):
  • In general, if you would like to deposit funds, the amount has to be equal to the margin call amount. If you choose to liquidate your stocks to cover the call, the amount you have to sell should be equal to the margin call amount divided by the minimum maintenance requirement. Firstrade
  • If the customer’s account falls below the required minimum balance, the brokerage may not always issue a margin call to the customer, requiring them to top up the account. Instead, they may sell part of the customer’s securities to restore the margin account to the maintenance margin without notifying the customer. Corporate Finance Institute
  • Margin calls originally got their name because the brokerage would call the trader on the telephone. Your brokerage may or may not still conduct margin calls via phone call. Your brokerage may also automatically close certain positions after a margin call has been issued. the balance

Raginimas papildyti sąskaitą


Definition from own experience or research:
Investuojant į išvestinius finansinius produktus reikia atsidaryti specialią sąskaitą, kurioje turi būti likutis, pakankamas galimiems kainų svyravimams padengti. Kai kaina pasikeičia daugiau, nei sąskaitoje yra lėšų, bankas (brokeris) skambina ir ragina papildyti sąskaitą. Priešingu atveju pozicija uždaroma ir dėl to galima patirti nuostolių.
