Long positions are charged with the relevant interbank rate plus a mark-up, and short positions receive the rate minus a mark-up. The operation is conducted at 00:00 GMT+2 time zone (note that DST may apply), and can take several minutes. For positions held open at the close of trading on Friday, swap is charged for 3 days.

The margin requirement for CFDs is calculated like this : Lots * Contract Size * Opening Price * Margin Percentage and not based on the leverage of your trading account.

Dividends Adjustments on Stocks CFDs

CFDs on Stocks are subject to dividend adjustments.

When a company pays dividends to its shareholders, it is essentially reducing the value of the company by the amount of the dividend.

This is reflected by a reduction of the share price at the market open on the ex-dividend date (the day that the company stock starts trading without the value of the dividend).

Holders of CFDs on Stocks do not own the underlying stock. However, they are impacted by reductions of share prices.

Therefore, to ensure no impact on positions, a dividend adjustment is made before the market open on the trading accounts of clients who hold CFD positions on Stocks.

The trading hours for each stock can be found in the table above.

Buy trades will receive an amount calculated as follows:

Dividend Adjustment = stock dividend declared x position size in shares

Sell trades will be charged an amount calculated as follows:

Dividend Adjustment = stock dividend declared x position size in shares

Due to new tax regulations under U.S. section 871 (m), non-US residents, holders of long positions on US equity derivatives (including CFDs) are taxed on dividend adjustments in the same way as non-US holders of the real US dividends. Particularly, in every dividend paid for an in-scope position, we calculate the dividend adjustment and deduct the 30% withholding rate (or less when a relevant treaty rate was applied to the account). Clients which are affected must fill in a W-8BEN form to be able to continue or start trading on the in-scope instruments.
