This is a general announcement. The products and services mentioned here may not be available in your region.

Binance is excited to announce that the Portfolio Margin feature has now been extended to standard users. Portfolio Margin, which was previously only available to users at VIP levels 1-9 and required a 30-day Spot trading volume of at least $1 million or a Futures trading volume of $15 million, is now also accessible to standard users with a minimum balance of 100,000 USDT in their cross margin and futures wallets. .

By making advanced investment tools more accessible, we aim to increase capital efficiency and simplify portfolio management for more investors. Making Portfolio Margin accessible to a wider audience is another step to enable investors to use their strategies more effectively, regardless of VIP status.

Alongside this expansion, we are also introducing a new Portfolio Margin wallet to make your trading experience even easier. This wallet simplifies portfolio management like never before by combining the previously separate USDⓈ-M Futures, COIN-M Futures and Cross Margin wallets into a single wallet.

What is Portfolio Margin?

Portfolio Margin is a facility offered to experienced investors and allows the use of various assets as collateral to leverage positions in more than one product. For example, on Binance, Portfolio Margin mode allows various assets supported in USDⓈ-M Futures, COIN-M Futures and Cross Margin wallets to be used as collateral.

In short, Portfolio Margin distinguishes itself from traditional margin trading by considering the full risk of your entire portfolio rather than a single position. The result is greater capital efficiency and greater strategic flexibility.

Expanding Portfolio Margin to standard users with at least 100,000 USDT in cross margin and futures wallets means we are making this advanced trading tool available to a much wider audience, allowing them to explore new strategies and opportunities.

A Single, Unified Portfolio Margin Wallet

In addition to increasing the number of users who can access this feature, we are also introducing a new Portfolio Margin wallet to improve and simplify the user experience.

This update simplifies portfolio management by combining Cross Margin, USDⓈ-M Futures and COIN-M Futures wallets into one unified wallet, allowing you to manage your collateral and monitor risk across different investment products from one central location. It streamlines transactions to react faster to the market by eliminating the need to switch between wallets to transfer collateral or evaluate margin usage.

The focus here is on flexibility, efficiency and a more user-friendly experience. With the integrated wallet system, this update aims to equip traders with the tools and adaptability needed to effectively navigate the crypto markets with greater confidence.

Advantages of Binance's Updated Portfolio Margin Program

Portfolio Margin offers advantages for all eligible users that enrich trading, make it easier to benefit from market movements and manage portfolios.

Capital Efficiency: Investors can maximize their potential by using a wider range of assets as collateral without manually converting for each position.

Simplified Management: Combining Cross Margin, USDⓈ-M Futures and COIN-M Futures wallets into a single wallet simplifies portfolio management. This eliminates the need to transfer funds between wallets to meet margin requirements, reducing transaction times and the potential for errors.

Increased Trading Potential: Portfolio Margin users can combine margin margin for up to 878 trading pairs, including cross margin pairs and futures contracts. These opportunities and the widest range of collateral assets open the way for a variety of strategies, from arbitrage to hedging.

Unified Risk Management Tool: Unified maintenance margin requirements result in a better risk assessment, providing a clearer picture of overall risk exposure. This approach allows investors to more effectively navigate and manage risk with an advanced tool.

Eligibility and Getting Started

Portfolio Margin eligibility now extends to standard users who meet certain criteria. The primary requirement for standard users to access this feature is to have at least 100,000 USDT equivalent assets across different futures and cross margin accounts. This makes Portfolio Margin accessible to users actively investing on the platform.

You do not need to take any additional action for this. The unified wallet interface provides a comprehensive view of your portfolio, allowing you to easily manage your collateral and adjust your strategies.

When Portfolio Margin is enabled, you can trade using expanded margin options for greater capital efficiency. By following these steps, new Portfolio Margin users can take advantage of the features offered to explore a wider range of trading opportunities and maximize capital efficiency.
