Wirehouse and private-bank pricing is typically negotiated per client and isn't shown here yet — this vertical only publishes a Negotiated Estimate range once it has at least 10 approved advisor submissions (currently 0). Share yours anonymously.
Each rate above was read directly from that lender's own published page on the observation date shown by its source link. Not a personalized quote.

Why This Matters
Every major self-directed lender prices securities-based lending as an index rate (usually SOFR) plus a spread that narrows as line size grows, but the exact spread at each tier varies by lender and isn't something most people compare directly. This calculator pulls real, sourced published tiers rather than a single 'typical' number that hides how much lenders actually differ.
