I'm not tuned in enough to know the exact relationship between RH and DTCC.
I am tuned in enough to know there is a big difference between rolling up and asking for credit saying "Hey I've got X dollars in settled cash to buy Y. Please lend me some money." and saying "Hey I've lent out X dollars to buy Y. Please lend me some money."
- Cederfjard 6y agoWell the parent poster said they aren’t allowed to use that cash as collateral - if that’s the case, then not really?
- valuearb 6y agoIf you don’t understand how the DTCC works, why are you trying to correct others?
- nimos 6y agoI said I don't know the exact relationship between RH and DTCC because it isn't public. Why would they be asking the DTCC for credit? That is absurd on the face of what collateral is there for. They can borrow money and use that for collateral which is exactly what they did. And there is a massive world of difference rolling up to a bank/investors saying "Hey I have settled funds, I need to borrow money to post as collateral" vs "Hey I lent people a bunch of money, I need to borrow a money to post collateral".
