Kathmandu – KBL Securities Limited (Stock Broker No. 94) has introduced a margin trading facility of up to Rs. 50 million (Rs. 5 crore) for investors in Nepal’s secondary stock market.
According to the company, the facility aims to increase investors’ purchasing capacity and help them take advantage of investment opportunities in the secondary market.
Investors can access the margin trading facility at an annual interest rate of 7.5%. The company stated that interest will be charged only on the amount actually used, meaning investors will not have to pay interest in advance on the entire approved credit limit.

According to KBL Securities, the facility will provide investors with greater financial flexibility and allow them to increase their purchasing power with limited capital.
