A-Rated 8% Indicative Yield Offer Closing Soon – Plus Breakfast With Nicola

 

The REAL 2 A-rated loan offer is closing shortly. This three-year loan has an indicative gross yield of 8 per cent, and a current yield of 10.4 per cent. This will very probably diminish, based on the performance of previous loan offers at auction, as offers of less expensive credit drove out the more expensive ones as the auction close approaches. The borrower also has discretion to reject offers of credit that it considers too expensive. The offer is currently 96 per cent filled.

As with all offers on site, this loan is eligible to be held in a tax-free Innovative Finance Individual Savings Account. See below for more on the process of holding loans in an ISA.

Don’t miss breakfast with us later this summer. It promises to be a fun event: coffee and Danish, debate and disruption are all on the menu. Five speakers from the world of FinTech have been confirmed for BusinessCloud’s The Future of FinTech event, held in association with FinTech intelligence platform Another Crowd, and Money&Co., in London on 12 July. The event will be hosted by Business Cloud editor, Chris Maguire.

A Process Guide To Innovative Finance ISA Investment

Our offering is an Innovative Finance ISA (IFISA) that can hold the peer-to-peer (P2P) business loans that Money&Co. facilitates. For the purposes of this article, the terms ISA and IFISA are interchangeable.

So here’s our guide to the process:

  • Step 1: Register as a lender. Go to the login page, and go through the process that the law requires us to effect. This means we have to do basic checks on you to comply with money-laundering and other security requirements.
  • Step 2: Put money into your account. This is best done by electronic transfer. We can also process paper cheques drawn in favour of Denmark Square Limited, the parent company of Money&Co.
  • Step 3: Buy loans in the loan market. Once you’ve put cash in your account it will sit there – and it won’t earn interest until you’ve bought a piece of a loan. It’s this final step that requires lenders and IFISA investors to be pro-active. Just choose some loans – all loans on the Money&Co. site can be held in an IFISA – and your money will start earning tax-free interest.

The ISA allowance for 2018/19 is unchanged from last tax year at £20,000, allowing a married couple to put £40,000 into a tax-free environment. Over three years, an investment of this scale in two Money&Co. Innovative Finance ISAs would generate £8,400 of income completely free of tax. We’re assuming a 7 per cent return, net of charges and free of tax here.

Once you have made your initial commitment, you might then consider diversifying – buying a spread of loans. To do this, you can go into the “loans for sale” market. All loans bought in this market also qualify for IFISA tax benefits.

Risk: Security, Access, Yield

Do consider not just the return, but the security and the ease of access to your investment. We write regularly about these three key factors. Here’s one of several earlier articles on security, access and yield.
