Interactive Brokers has launched its Securities Lending Dashboard, a digital tool designed to aid assessment of short-selling activity and inform overall trading decisions.
The dashboard’s data is powered by securities lending intelligence provider Orbisa and covers securities that trade in North America, Europe and Asia.
Available market intelligence includes metrics for utilisation, borrower depth, lender depth and a weighted average duration of all open loans.
Users are also able to view two stocks’ short-selling data across chosen date ranges.
A subscription-based premium tier adds a short interest indicator and measures of on-loan quantity, on-loan value and days to cover.
The dashboard complements the firm’s existing Securities Loan Borrow system, which catalogues shortable stocks on the Interactive Brokers platform.
Commenting on the Launch, Milan Galik, CEO of Interactive Brokers, says: “The new Securities Lending Dashboard is a straightforward tool for advanced traders and hedge fund clients seeking to analyse potential short-selling investment opportunities.
“Our clients can now access a more comprehensive data set to evaluate their short trade ideas and use our Securities Loan Borrow system to identify shortable securities.”
