If my dutch broker goes bankrupt I still own my stocks they are stored in an insurance company through my broker. Blue-chip companies and bonds have security value so I can buy additional shares "free spending" my broker calls it. Depends on their risknumber with 70% of the stockprice value to be the maximum security value/extra spending money. There's leverage in both profits and losses. For penny stocks it doesn't apply. Most of the time it is banks that lent their shares for shorting purposes but the dividends are held by the owner of the stock not the lender.
