Margin Lending

Investment loan that lets you borrow money to invest in shares.

Using a margin loan to amplify your investing power can be an effective way to build wealth, diversify your portfolio and could offer tax benefits as well. However, just as it has the potential to grow your wealth, if stocks go down in value your losses will be amplified as well. It’s important to weigh up both the benefits and the risks when thinking about investing with a margin loan.

What are some of the benefits?

  • Boost your investing power - increasing the size of your investments could amplify your profits in a rising market as well as increase the size of any dividend payments
  • Diversify your portfolio - access to more funds means you could diversify across different asset classes, industries and companies. This in turn could also help reduce investment risk.
  • Potential tax advantages - depending on your circumstances you may be able to claim tax deductions for some or all of your borrowing costs.

A message from ITI Capital on operations during COVID-19

Dear Clients!

As COVID-19 (the coronavirus) continues to impact the global community, we want to assure you that during these volatile market conditions your assets and cash held with ITI Capital continue to be protected under CASS rules. As a firm, ITI remains well capitalised. In addition, we are doing what we can to continue providing you with the service you require from us.

In the build up to the recent events, ITI began implementing a multi staged BCP plan for all our critical functions globally. Based on guidelines from regulators and global health authorities, we have taken a number of steps to ensure business continuity and help halt the spread of COVID-19.

As ITI is a digital business, we have taken advantage of our investments in technology so that employees can work remotely in a safe and effective way. We have been coordinating efforts with our partners and suppliers so that the running of our platforms will not be impacted.

As part of our third-party impact assessment at this time, we have been advised by our bankers that any funds received in the form of cheque, is likely to be delayed and/or may not be settled. Therefore, for us to continue you to provide you with the highest level of support within our daily operations, we strongly suggest we use electronic fund transfers to send in any money you wish to be applied to your account. We have also instated strict travel policies and instructed all employees in how to conduct both external and internal meetings through digital tools.

As this is an unprecedented time for all of us, and the situation continues to evolve each day, we will continue to follow the situation closely, and update our approach and measures as required.
