It can be used as a strategic tool when attractive investment opportunities arise, allowing you to optimize the use of your capital, enhance your portfolio's potential at the right time, while still managing risk within defined limits.
A Credit Balance account is a type of margin account that allows you to borrow money from a securities company to buy stocks, using cash or securities in your portfolio as collateral. The typical initial margin is 50:50. For example, if you want to buy stocks worth 100,000 baht, you only need to use 50,000 baht of your own money, while the other 50,000 baht can be borrowed from the broker.
Important Risk Warnings Before Investing
You must maintain at least 35% equity based on the market value of stocks in your account.
If equity falls below 35% (Call Margin), you’ll be required to deposit more funds or collateral.
If equity drops below the force-sell level (Call Force Sell), the broker will automatically sell part of your holdings.
To use this service, you must open a separate margin account and maintain a required equity level. Existing clients with Cash Balance or Cash Collateral accounts and at least six months of trading history can apply for a Credit Balance account more easily.

Margin accounts allow you to enhance your investment capacity by contributing half the capital and borrowing the rest. While this increases your buying power, it also increases risk, as you’re responsible for the full investment value and must pay interest on the borrowed amount.
You can only trade or pledge stocks listed on the "Marginable Securities" list, which varies by broker.
