Questions

What people ask before they invest.

Short answers here. The information memorandum is the full and binding version of each.

Investing

Who can invest?

Only wholesale clients, as defined in sections 761G and 761GA of the Corporations Act 2001. Most individuals qualify through a certificate from a qualified accountant confirming net assets of at least $2.5 million, or gross income of at least $250,000 in each of the last two financial years. Investing $500,000 or more in the fund also qualifies.

How recent does an accountant’s certificate need to be?

It must have been given within the last two years.

What is the minimum investment?

It is set out in the information memorandum.

How do I invest?

Request the pack, read the information memorandum, and apply using the form it contains. The steps are on the fund page.

Do you give advice?

No. Nothing on this site takes account of your objectives, financial situation or needs. Speak to a licensed adviser if you want advice on whether the fund suits you.

Returns and distributions

What return does the fund target?

The fund targets a return linked to the RBA cash rate. The current target is set out in the information memorandum. The target moves with the cash rate, so it rises and falls as the Reserve Bank changes rates. A target is not a forecast or a guarantee.

Where does the return come from?

From the interest borrowers pay on the fund’s loans, less the fund’s costs and fees.

When are distributions paid?

As the fund receives cash from borrowers. The timing is not fixed and will not be even across a year. On construction and development loans, interest is often received when the project is finished and the loan is repaid.

What are the fees?

There is no entry or exit fee. A management fee and a performance fee apply, and both are set out in full in the information memorandum.

Risk and the mortgage

Can I lose money?

Yes. Capital is at risk and you can lose some or all of what you invest. The main risks are summarised on the fund page, and the information memorandum sets them out in full.

What happens if a borrower stops paying?

The fund holds a first registered mortgage, which gives it the right to take possession of the property and sell it to recover the loan. That takes time and costs money, and interest from that loan stops reaching investors while it runs.

The borrower’s own money in the property absorbs a fall in value first. If the sale still falls short of the loan, the fund takes a loss.

How do you decide how much to lend?

Every property is valued by an independent valuer before the fund lends, and loans are kept well below that value. The lending limits are set out in the information memorandum.

Does the fund lend on construction?

Yes. Construction loans are paid out in stages as the building progresses, and the cost to finish the work is checked before each payment. Interest on these loans is often received when the project is completed.

Getting your money back

Can I get my money out early?

The investment has a twelve month minimum term, and you should treat it as illiquid after that. Any way of leaving earlier is set out in the information memorandum.

Can I invest through a platform?

Not yet. Applications are made directly for now.

The fund and the people behind it

Who is licensed?

Oxford Capital Pty Ltd is the investment manager of the fund and a corporate authorised representative (CAR No. 1323556) of Non Correlated Advisors Pty Ltd ACN 158 314 982, AFSL 430126.

Who holds the fund’s money?

The fund’s assets are held by its trustee and custodian, Non Correlated Capital Pty Ltd, separately from Oxford Capital. Oxford Capital manages the fund’s lending.

The fund is new. How can I judge it?

By meeting us and reading the information memorandum. The fund has no track record, so we will talk you through how we assess a loan, who we lend to, and what we would do if a loan went wrong. Once the fund is lending, we can take you to see a property it has lent against.

Has the fund been rated?

Not yet. The fund has not been rated by a research house.

Do the founders invest?

Yes. The founders’ own capital is in the fund on the same units and terms as everyone else’s.
