Loan Against Securities
A large section of students traveling abroad need funds at low cost to finance their education and maintenance expenses. Our Loan Against Securities (LAS) offering will help address this need.

We provide Loan Against Securities in the form of an overdraft (OD) facility against the pledge of financial securities like shares/units/bonds. This facility helps to keep the carefully made portfolio intact and get liquidity against it. The OD limit depends on the valuation of the security, applicable margin and other conditions as applicable from time to time.

ICICI Bank offers overdraft facility against following instruments:

    Equity Debt
    1. Shares
    2. Mutual funds
    1. Savings bonds
    2. Insurance Policies
    3. Unit Linked Insurance Policies (ULIP)
    4. Fixed Maturity Plans(FMP)
