Pledging does not automatically erase every entitlement
Pledged shares can still generate cash or stock distributions, but the actual treatment depends on the pledge instructions.
TDCC follows the entitlement agreement
TDCC explains that pledge and entitlement information is provided to the issuer and benefits are handled according to the parties’ agreed instructions.
Securities-finance loans also have specific rules
Current Yuanta Securities Finance rules generally assign collateral distributions to the collateral owner, while certain pledge arrangements can be separately agreed.
Ex-dividend events can affect maintenance calculations
Collateral valuation rules can adjust around corporate actions, so receiving a distribution does not eliminate pledge risk.
What to check before borrowing
- Provider and any restrictions on loan use
- Advance rate, interest rate, term, and renewal rules
- Maintenance formula, call threshold, deadline, and cure level
- Whether collateral can be sold / substituted and liability for any shortfall after disposal
