Answer: Different definitions of margin call are applicable to different types of accounts as follows:

For Cash Accounts, a margin call will be issued when there are overdue balance, which usually comprises trade amounts that remain outstanding after the settlement dates (T+2).

For Margin Accounts, a margin call will be issued if debit balance is higher than the marginable value of the stocks held. Once you are on margin call, you will not be able to buy any more stocks or withdraw cash under the margin account with insufficient funds, and you will have to pay up the margin call amount immediately by cash deposit or deposit of securities or liquidating an appropriate amount of your stocks on hand. At day end, if the balance of margin account is lower than the marginable value in clients’ account, you have to replenish the margin before 11:00am (HKT) on the next working day; during the trading hours, when the margin balance is lower than the marginable value in clients’ account, clients have to close the difference in the next trading session, or based on the requirement of our Risk Control Department. Otherwise, your portfolio could be partially or totally liquidated without any or any further notice. The profit/loss or charges incurred will have to be settled by clients.
