Institutional Loans are loans provided by KuCoin to Institutional and VIP users. Clients have the freedom to choose their desired borrowing leverage, with access to even larger borrowing amounts. Both margin and loaned assets can be used for trading, providing a greater degree of flexibility.
Margin trading is a method that lets users magnify their initial investment several times using a small amount of capital. Users collateralize a small amount of assets to borrow a fixed amount of crypto, allowing them to execute long (buy)/short (sell) positions with the goal of increasing their investment amount and optimizing capital use.
