Invest In People

Consumer lending is an asset class that has been traditionally controlled by the banks and is amongst the most profitable parts of their retail lending operations.

SocietyOne Personal Loans Unit Trust

Our Personal Loans Unit Trust gives wholesale investors the opportunity to earn a target return (net of fees and costs but before tax) of 4-6% p.a. from a portfolio of prime fixed rate personal loans originated by SocietyOne and other entities owned by MoneyMe Limited. Interest is credited monthly.

Our creditworthy customers are digitally savvy. Our simple application process and competitive pricing are key to our success in driving consistent loan origination growth. Through our diligent management of loans we can maximise returns to investors.

Proven Asset Class

We target bank grade prime borrowers with the individual interest rate determined by their personal circumstances. Our customers borrow an average of $20,000 per loan, based on loan terms of 2, 3, 5 or 7 years.

Liquidity

Whilst we recommend investors treat their investment in a personal loan portfolio with a 3-7 year time horizon, the trust will offer liquidity (subject to certain conditions) for investors who hold their investments beyond 12 months.

Managed for return smoothing

The target return (net of fees and costs but before tax) for the loan portfolio is 4-6% p.a.

The Trust structure includes a reserve fund to smooth returns during periods of volatility as the loan portfolio grows and the default and arrears profile matures. The reserve fund mechanism also allows investors to earn higher returns should the Trust outperform the target return.
