How Does a Delta-Neutral Strategy Benefit Most from Portfolio Margining?

A delta-neutral strategy aims to have a net portfolio delta of zero, meaning the portfolio's value is theoretically insensitive to small price movements of the underlying asset. Portfolio margining recognizes this low net risk and significantly reduces the required margin compared to margining each position separately, thus maximizing capital efficiency.
