Loans against stock -- stock-secured loans -- come in many flavors and with varying levels of risk. One of the most respected companies in the industry these days is HedgeLender out of Philadelphia. They operate under the "stock loan superstore" concept with a broad range of loan products and features to choose from via multiple lending partners. I highly recommend them (www.hedgelender.com).
