Support margin assets as collateral for spot sub-accounts Allows independent configuration of spot margin currency, including collateral value ratio and maximum collateral value

FAQ
1. How to apply for an Institutional Loan?
Please contact your account manager or send an email request with the subject "VIP Institutional Loan Application". Our team will get back to you promptly.
2. What are the requirements for Institutional Loans?
Institutional users must complete KYB verification, and the collateral assets must be worth at least 200,000 USDT.
3. How is the loan settled after approval?
Loan settlement usually occurs immediately after the application is approved. For spot Institutional Loans, the borrowed amount will be credited to the dedicated spot sub-account once sufficient collateral is confirmed.
4. Are there any fees for Institutional Loans?
There are no transaction fees for Institutional Loans. However, interest is charged, and Bitget takes a 2% fee as a risk reserve for liquidation repayment.
5. How is the interest calculated?
Interest is calculated daily, and both the principal and interest are settled in one lump sum on the repayment date.
6. What is the loan-to-value ratio (LTV) of Institutional Loans?
The loan-to-value ratio (LTV) helps the platform calculate the loan amount you will receive based on your existing collateral assets. The calculation formula is as follows:
- LTV Ratio = Remaining borrowed amount ÷ (Risk Unit spot sub-account converted assets)
You can manage your LTV ratio by transferring assets to/from your spot sub-account Risk Unit
You can query the LTV risk through OpenAPI.
7. Introduction to risk management rules
For Institutional Loans with 5x leverage (Spot), the risk restrictions are as follows:
- LTV Ratio = Remaining borrowed amount ÷ spot sub-account converted assets (RU)
- Remaining borrowed amount = Remaining unpaid principal + Remaining unpaid interest
- Spot sub-account converted assets(RU) = sum (min (Risk Unit spot sub-account margin coin quantity × index price × collateral value ratio, maximum collateral value))
- The lower the LTV, the safer the collateral assets and the lower the risk of liquidation.
- LTV ≥ 80%
- Transfer restriction: It is prohibited to transfer collateral assets in the spot sub-account within the Risk Unit to external accounts.
- LTV ≥ 85%
- Spot buying will be restricted within the Risk Unit.
- LTV ≥ 90%
- Spot trading restricted: Spot buying and selling orders in the Risk Unit will be restricted.
- Institutional Loan liquidation repayment will be triggered.
8. What is the liquidation repayment process?
For Institutional Loans with 5x leverage (Spot), the liquidation repayment process works as follows
when the LTV ratio reaches or exceeds the liquidation ratio:
1) Canceling active orders: Any active spot orders within the Risk Unit are canceled.
2) No-loss payment: If the available USDT in the Risk Unit is sufficient for repayment, the system will transfer the amount to the dedicated spot sub-account to reduce the LTV ratio from 90% to approximately 80%.
Otherwise, the following steps will be taken:
3) Loss repayment
- Accounts within the Risk Unit that need to be liquidated will be selected to reduce the risk ratio to around 80%.
- The system calculates the coins and quantity that each sub-account in the Risk Unit should repay based on the repayment amount.
- The selection process will prioritize accounts based on the total equity amount from highest to lowest and transfer assets to the dedicated sub-spot account for repayment.
- The system will automatically convert the margin assets in the dedicated spot sub-account into borrowed currency for repayment, reducing the risk rate to around 80% and completing the liquidation.
- If the LTV ratio remains at or above 85%, the system will take control of all assets across the user's accounts to repay the liabilities.
Liquidation settlement
A settlement fee will be collected by the Loans Insurance Funds using the following formula:
Liquidation fee = liquidation repayment amount × 2%
Please monitor your risk level closely to avoid liquidation.
9. Can I use borrowed USDT for futures trading?
This is not supported currently. The LTV risk rate will increase after transferring assets from the Risk Unit to futures accounts.
10. Can I access institutional lending through the API?
Yes, Bitget supports institutional lending via API access. For more information on the API, you can refer to Institutional Loan Open API.
