# Margin accounts and portfolio line of credit

### Margin accounts

All customers are required to open a[Reg T](https://help.frec.com/hc/en-us/articles/16259787649044-Regulation-T-Reg-T?hsLang=en-us) margin account with Frec. Each customer is limited to one margin account per account type; for example, an individual account counts as one account type.

Margin accounts allow margin borrowing, which carries additional risks. We encourage you to read[Frec's margin disclosure](http://frec.com/disclosures) before borrowing.

### Portfolio line of credit

A portfolio line of credit (margin loan) gives you access to additional cash based on the value of certain securities in your brokerage account. It's an interest-bearing loan that can be used to invest in additional securities, or withdrawn from the Frec platform for other non-investment needs.

To access a portfolio line of credit on Frec, you must have a minimum account value of $2,000.
