Securities borrowing and lending (SBL) is a temporary loan of securities between the borrower and lender.

In this arrangement, a borrower can borrow shares for shorting while maintaining a required level of collateral and paying any incurred fees back to the lender. Additionally, lenders will receive a lending fee.
