Hedge Margin on US Stock CFDs Increasing from 10 to 50

Dear Valued Client,

To strengthen risk management amid recent market conditions, we will increase the hedge margin requirement for US stock CFDs from 10 to 50, which means your hedged positions will be calculated based on the single-sided margin requirement. The details are as follows:

Adjustment Details: Increase Hedged Margin from 10 to 50

Example with current 10 hedge margin:

Client holds 1 lot long AAPL at 270.21 and 1 lot short AAPL at 270.01.

Hedge margin:

= 2 lots × 10% base margin × 270.11 (average price) × 10 hedge margin value

= USD 540.22.

Example after adjustment to 50 hedge margin:

With the same positions, hedge margin:

= 2 lots × 10% base margin × 270.11 (average price) × 50 hedge margin value

= USD 2,701.10.

Effective Date: 07th November 2025, 20:59 PM (GMT+0), After US Stocks Market Close

Scope: Applies to all new and existing all US stock CFDs positions (including all types of Groups)

We kindly remind all clients to review and properly manage your open positions and margin levels before US stocks market close on 07th November 2025, to avoid any potential liquidation risk that may arise from the leverage change.

Based on our assessment, this adjustment should not trigger forced liquidation risks and is expected to have minimal impact on existing or active positions. We will continue to closely monitor market conditions and take further risk control measures if necessary.
