Question

My daughter invested in digital currencies. In order to redeem the investment, she has to pay in advance a conversion fee from shekels to digital currencies. Am I allowed to take a loan with interest from the bank in order to lend her the money for paying this fee?

Answer

שלום וברכה 

You are permitted to take a loan from the bank under a "heter iska" arrangement, and then lend it to your daughter without her paying any interest.
