Risk Management for Investor at a Brokerage House

Risk Management Policy at Brokerage houses

Brokers are open to risk all the time, let’s say for an example you buy 100 shares of reliance at the rate of Rs 1000 and Delivery Brokerage is .3% which is Rs 3 per share. So the risk is Rs 997 with a broker.
Imagine if you went bankrupt or you don’t fulfill your obligation to the broker, broker is left with 2 options either to call you for your margin deposit or square off your stocks in real time market with current market price. All these process is run by risk management software which continuously monitors the risk in real time environment and at few brokers place this same risk formulas are used to release payment to the client

Normally there are 12 to 13 parameters for overall consideration of risk in Stock Broking
·         Financial balances (Clear / Unclear Balance)
·         Power of Attorney Stock (also referred to as Statement of Holding Stocks) for liquid scrips
·         Power of Attorney Stock (also referred to as Statement of Holding Stocks) for illiquid scrips
·         Beneficiary Stocks (Stocks Withhold by broker in case of debits) for liquid scrips
·         Beneficiary Stocks (Stocks Withhold by broker in case of debits) for illiquid scrips
·         Collateral Stock (Stocks Deposited by you for FO Trading) for liquid scrips
·         Collateral Stock (Stocks Deposited by you for FO Trading) for illiquid scrips
·         Mutual Fund units available in Demat form
·         Span Margin
·         Exposure Margin
·         VAR Margin (Hair cut for Cash Market)
·         Exercised/ Assigned Value
·         Option intrinsic value
·         Futures & Options open positions Market to Market Value

Overall risk at a brokers place revolve around above parameters
On basis of risk management your next day trading limits are configured

Financial Balances
T+2 Day Balances: Rs 300000 Cr
Assuming T Day as 11/01/2016 , Payin & Payout of funds takes place on T+2 i.e 13/01/2016
If you would have sold some shares on T Day and those shares are lying with broker in POA or Beneficiary or Collateral then you would get entire credit for the shares sold because it would be the broker who would be doing Payin on behalf of you and broker would provide you credit for sale
In Stock Market Credit for sale is referred to the above scenario

Unclear Cheque:-
You gave a cheque to the broker and it is not yet reflected in the bank books of broker , So broker may not give you the credit for the funds in Transit . For our example let’s take Rs 50000 as Fund in transit

Final Balance: Rs 300000 – Rs 50000 = Rs 250000
