Institutional securities-backed lending against shares listed on Mexico’s principal equity exchanges — for controlling shareholders, founders, and family offices holding positions on the CNBV-regulated market.

Mexico equity markets.

The firm structures stock loans against shares listed on Mexico’s one principal cash equity venue. The instrument allows founders, family offices, controlling shareholders, and concentrated single-stock holders to release liquidity against their Mexico-listed position — without selling, and without disturbing voting control or the share register. Beneficial ownership remains with the borrower throughout. The full position is recovered on repayment.

Indicative terms are calibrated to the specific position. Loan-to-value is set against the underlying’s single-stock liquidity and free float. Tenor typically runs twelve to thirty-six months for institutional transactions. Recourse profiles span non-recourse, limited-recourse, and full-recourse — chosen against the borrower’s downside-protection objectives. Loans can be denominated in MXN or in cross-currency structures (USD, EUR, GBP, or another major currency) depending on the borrower’s redeployment requirements.

Mexico Stock Loans

What people most often ask about Mexico.

Q · 01 What is the typical loan-to-value for a stock loan against BMV-listed positions?
LTV on BMV is calibrated to the specific position. The principal drivers are the underlying’s free float, average daily trading volume, volatility, and the borrower’s regulatory profile. For a large-cap, high-volume BMV name, LTV is materially higher than for a thinly-traded or recently-listed position. A non-recourse structure runs at lower LTV than a full-recourse structure on the same underlying. Indicative ratios are issued only after a review of the specific BMV position; there is no published rate sheet.
Q · 02 Which BMV-listed segments are eligible for stock loans?
Eligibility is assessed case by case. The firm considers positions across the segments operated by Bolsa Mexicana de Valores: Capital market main board; SIC (international quotation system). Higher-tier (premium / large-cap / main-market) segments are typically more straightforward to structure than growth / SME segments, principally because of free-float and liquidity differences.
Q · 03 In which currency can a BMV stock loan be denominated?
The default is MXN, the listing currency. Cross-currency structures, for example, financing an MXN-denominated BMV position with a USD or EUR loan, are common and routinely available. The cross-currency element introduces hedging, settlement, and tax considerations that are addressed in the documentation.
Q · 04 Are there foreign-ownership constraints on BMV-listed shares relevant to a pledge?
Foreign-ownership rules vary by issuer and by sector on BMV; regulated sectors (banking, telecoms, defence, natural resources, and others) commonly carry ownership caps and notification requirements that interact with collateralised structures. The firm’s structuring review addresses these expressly for any specific position.
