Margin account and interest rates

A margin account can help you execute your trading strategy. TD Ameritrade offers margin accounts that help provide you with leverage and competitive cash sweep vehicle interest rates.

Margin Rates

Margin interest rates vary due to the base rate and the size of the debit balance. When setting base rates, TD Ameritrade considers indicators like commercially recognized interest rates, industry conditions related to credit, the availability of liquidity in the marketplace, and general market conditions. As of July 28, 2023 the current base rate is 13.50%.
