French term or phrase: PRET DE TITRES
Hello All, it's me again. What, if any, is the difference between PRET DE TITRES and EMPRUNT DE TITRES. As always, thanks in advance for your help.
cbg
securities lending, securities borrowing
Explanation:
When an institution transfers securities against collateral with the agreement that the receiving party (the counterparty) will return equivalent securities at some future date, this is "securities lending" (pret de titres) for the institution transfering the securities and "securities borrowing" (emprunt de titres) for the institution the securities are transfered to.

I hope these very general definitions help you to find the right terms.

Explanation:
PRET DE TITRES = SECURITIES LOAN ; SECURITY LENDING

EMPRUNT DE TITRES = SECURITY BORROWING

Hence, they are antonyms.

Previously I worked for a bank.

Explanation:
never worked in a bank so i went to grandictionnaire as usually, it gives the translation: securities lending (that's the official term
now have a look at the definition
pret de titres = emprunt de titres dans le bloc de titres deposes chez 1 intermediaire lorsq'un client realise 1 vente a decouvert et qu'il doit livrer les titres a 1 contrepartie
on l'appelle "pret de titres" mais c'est un "emprunt" vu de l'autre cote (symetrie!!!)
hope it helps
