On loanSpecial
A ‘Special’ is generally accepted to be a security where the lending income that is currently being generated is above 100 basis points annually.
Where ‘Special’ and ‘Deep Special’ are used concurrently, Special specifically refers to securities generating between 100 and 400 basis points.
Sharegain seeks to primarily focus on the returns that can be generated from the special portion of your portfolio.
