Premium Charge
Determination of Premium Charge and Premium Charge Rate
JSF procures stocks, of which stock lending balance exceed money lending balance, by accepting stock lending applications on the day following the date of LMTs application (stock procurement through bidding).
JSF adopts applications from lower bidding rate and faster bidding time when the rate is the same, and determines Premium Charge at the highest bidding rate among adopted applications. JSF announces Premium Charge multiplied by lending term (number of days) as Premium Charge Rate.

Premium Charge Rate = Premium Charge x lending term (number of days)
Premium Charge Rate shall not be incurred when additional LMT applications submitted on next business day eliminate the over lent situation. In such case, JSF publishes the Premium Charge as “*****”.
Meanwhile, when necessary amount is procured by the bidding and zero becomes the highest bidding rate of such over lent issue, JSF announces the Premium Charge as “0.00”

Lending Term Calculation
On the 3rd business day starting from LMT application day (on the 2nd business day starting from bidding day), JSF borrows stocks which JSF procures through bidding. JSF basically returns such issue on the next business day. In this case, lending term (the number of days that JSF borrows stock) is 1 day.
If the next day (repayment day) falls on holiday, lending term is extended in response to the number of holidays.
If the next day (repayment day) falls on holiday, lending term is extended in response to the number of holidays.
Example of 3 days lending term
Maximum Premium Charge
Premium Charge is obtained through the procedure of the stock procurement through bidding. In this procedure, the upper limit is set for the bidding price of each issue. This limit is referred to as the Maximum Premium Charge and is set in advance in corresponding to Investment unit calculated by multiplying trading unit and the margin loan price (JSF adopts for LMT cash and/or stock loan, and basically the closing price of regular session in stock exchanges).
Some Maximum Premium Charge calculation rules are different for stocks and for ETF etc.
If issues meet one of the conditions below, JSF organizes stock procurement through bidding while raising Maximum Premium Charge up to the level to be calculated by multiplying Maximum Premium Charge and integer multiples indicated correspondingly to each condition.
