Gearing Information

Margin lending allows you to borrow money, add it to your own savings or equity and to use the total for investment purposes.

Borrowing to invest allows you to enhance your potential for wealth creation by making a larger investment than would be possible by only using your own funds.

Assumptions: The illustration below uses an equity based managed fund for a Margin Loan with Regular Savings Plan (RSP) based on an initial gearing level of 50%. Investment values are considered pre-tax. This example excludes Interest Charges, Fees and Brokerage.
