We would need to set up prime brokerage and we're not there yet. If you plan to use a lot of leverage, I can try to get an exception; prime brokerage usually requires pretty high trading volumes. If we can simply execute the purchase and deliver these to your custody at MS or DB and use their margin, it should be the standard 50% for purpose lending; perhaps higher if you have a non-purpose line. Note that since mando convert preferreds are highly correlated to the stock, the vol is much higher than on a bank preferred. The AGN A Pfd is has a 19% 30-day vol (vs 24% for the common stock) and 30% 90-day vol (vs 41% for the common stock). For comparison, PFF had a 4.5-5% vol. From: jeffrey E.
