答案

参考答案:C

解析:

In margin transactions, the broker borrows from the bank at the call money rate. The rate the investor pays on the loan in a margin transaction is known as the call money rate plus a spread. Remember that the broker needs to make profit, so the investor will pay a rate higher than the broker pays to the bank. The investor collateralizes the margin loan with the securities purchased.
