What holders ask about Germany.

01How much can I borrow against Germany-listed shares?

The loan-to-value is set to your holding — its free float, daily traded volume, volatility, and your own regulatory standing. A large-cap with deep free float supports a higher LTV than a thin mid-cap, and a non-recourse structure runs lower than a full-recourse one on the same stock. We quote indicative ratios only after reviewing the position.

02Which Germany exchanges can I borrow against?

We cover Deutsche Börse / Frankfurter Wertpapierbörse (FWB). Financing is arranged against shares listed there; which venue applies depends on the issuer’s primary listing and how the holding trades.

03What currency can the facility be drawn in?

The default is EUR, the listing currency. Cross-currency structures — drawing a USD or EUR loan against the position — are common, and bring hedging, settlement and tax points we set out expressly in the documentation.

04Who regulates these transactions in Germany?

Bundesanstalt für Finanzdienstleistungsaufsicht (BaFin) is the principal regulator. Black Haven Investments lends as principal; lending and any regulated activity are conducted by, or through, appropriately licensed or registered entities in the relevant jurisdiction.
