Hey!

It’s been just over two months since we launched our share lending programme, and we wanted to give you a behind-the-scenes sneak peek.

Here are last month’s most in-demand stocks and their current average annualised rates:

Instrument name Symbol Annualised lending rate

To participate, opt in through your app.

Based on the average daily loan value in October 2024. These are the annualised rates we’re getting on loans as of 1 November 2024. You’ll receive 50% of the earnings.

This isn’t a recommendation to buy. Always do your own research. Your actual return depends on the loan size and duration.

Participating in share lending carries risks, including that a borrower may default. With share lending, rates can go down or up so the annualised rate does not represent a rate that you will get for a whole year. You can read more about share lending and the risks involved on our product page.

Is this information or similar available each month?

It would be useful to see which types of stocks are in-demand. I could potentially transfer some from another broker.

I was pleased to get £14 in stock lending income this month. Think it came from ISF (ishares FTSE100 tracker) , statement will confirm later.

Are these socks even available on Free trade?
Can’t see wood group anywhere

I have WG. in my ISA.

Hopefully will get some money this month as the shares loaned out so far haven’t given a return.

Suspended…

Ah, yes, that would it explain it. Thanks

I don’t think shares can be lent out in an ISA, only GIA and Sipp

I hold Nio in the GIA and have a loan out last month but no money
