other agent lenders on the DataLend platform on a yearly, quarterly, monthly or ad hoc basis.DataLend® accurately compares your performance against other agent lenders by matching their results based on only those securities you had out on loan. DataLend® also

takes the dividend rate(s) and loan duration of those securities into consideration.

clients by matching only those securities your client had out on loan against the compare group’s results.
