Investing - Theory, News & General • Re: Margin Accounts - Avoiding 'Payment In Lieu Of Dividends'

Here is a response from IB regarding PIL with their Stock Yield Enhancement Program:

"Stock Yield Enhancement Program shares that are lent out are generally recalled from the borrower before ex-date in order to capture the dividend and avoid payments in lieu (PIL) of dividends."

comeinvest, maybe IB has updated their procedures. When did you ask them?
I don't have to ask them, I have an account and I get PIL every month, but I have a margin balance or negative options value. Perhaps shares lent under the yield enhancement program are recalled.
Sounds like IBKR continues to lack in this area. Are you participating in IBKR's Stock Yield Investment Program? If not, I wonder if being a part of that program would change how dividends/PIL is handled.
