If the conditions in paragraph 860-10-40-5 are met, a securities lending transaction should be accounted for as follows:
Many securities lending transactions are accompanied by an agreement that both entitles and obligates the transferor to repurchase or redeem the transferred financial assets before their maturity. Paragraph 860-10-40-24 states that an agreement that both entitles and obligates the transferor to repurchase or redeem transferred financial assets from the transferee maintains the transferor’s effective control over those assets as described in paragraph 860-10-40-5(c)(1), if all of the conditions in paragraph 860-10-40-24 are met. Those transactions shall be accounted for as secured borrowings, in which either cash or securities that the holder is permitted by contract or custom to sell or repledge received as collateral are considered the amount borrowed, the securities loaned are considered pledged as collateral against the cash borrowed and reclassified as set forth in paragraph 860-30-25-5(a), and any rebate paid to the transferee of securities is interest on the cash the transferor is considered to have borrowed.
