I just received an email from my Broker (Interactive Brokers) suggesting a new feature called Stock Yield Enhancement Program.
"You could earn extra income on the fully-paid shares of stock held in your account by joining IB's Stock Yield Enhancement Program. This plan allows IB to borrow shares from you in exchange for cash collateral, and then lend the shares to traders who want to sell them short and are willing to pay interest to borrow them. Each day that your stock is on loan, you will be paid interest on the cash collateral posted to your account for the loan based on market rates."
I'd love to hear what you think of this.
