- for the instruments with GBP, marginal requirements may grow 5 times larger (500 % margin interest);*
- for the CFD instruments such as UK100, GER30, EU50, FRA40, ITA40, marginal requirements may become 5 times larger (5 % margin interest);

* instruments margin calculation formula: a lot’s volume * contract amount / account leverage * margin interest. This means that once margin interest in increased from 100% to 500%, the position margin will become 5 times larger regardless of a leverage the customer has in the trading account.
