Some of these strategies are not just for geared investors, but should apply to ungeared investing as well. The law now demands that these risks are addressed, prior to the margin loan commencing.
We look at margin lending facilities and loan to value ratios – including the types of LVRs and how to calculate these – and discuss the best ways to deal with these.
