Things you should know

Like any investment, there's an element of risk, including:

  • The value of your securities may not go up, or go up enough, to cover the cost of your investment
  • Borrowing to invest can increase potential returns and can also increase potential losses
  • You need to ensure you can fund your loan obligations including any interest, fees and charges. If not, securities may be sold to cover the shortfall
  • You should consider the tax consequences and seek independent professional advice.


To help you manage the risks:

  • Borrow less than you can afford
  • Invest in high quality investments
  • Diversify your investments
  • Repay your loan interest
  • Reinvest the income you earn from investments
  • Review your situation regularly.
