  How ShareInvest works

SHAREINVEST = EASICREDIT + SHARE FINANCING
 
ShareInvest combines the convenience of fast cash of EasiCredit and the gearing power of Share Financing, so that you can make the most out of an investment opportunity. For example:
 
Monthly salary = S$2,500
 
Credit limit of EasiCredit = 2 x S$2,500 = S$5,000
 
Transfer S$5,000 from EasiCredit into your Share Financing account
 
Trading limit of Share Financing account = 3.5 times of S$5,000 = S$17,500
 
Therefore with a monthly salary of S$2,500, you will have S$17,500 for trading & investment!
 
Flexible cash, with interest charged only when you use it
 
Annual Effective Interest Rates: EasiCredit = 17.8%; Share Financing = 6.18%;
When you trade using ShareInvest, the Annual Effective Interest Rate becomes 9.5%, (which is made up of 2 components:

 

Under ShareInvest

 

Interest payable to EasiCredit

Interest payable to Share Financing

Total Interest payable under ShareInvest

Daily Effective Interest Rate for ShareInvest

$5,000 x 17.8%

= $890

 

($17,500 - $5,000) x 6.18%

= $772.50

 

($890 + $ 772.50)

$17,500

= 9.5%

9.5%/365 days

= 0.026%

 

The effective interest rate of the bundled ShareInvest works out to 9.50% p.a. or 0.026% per day.

  Risks

Before trading securities with a ShareInvest account, you should carefully review the section “Trading with Share Financing Accounts” under Schedule: Risk Disclosure Statement found within the Standard Trading Terms and Conditions Booklet provided by OCBC Securities Private Limited (“OSPL”). Consult OSPL regarding any questions or concerns you may have with your margin accounts.

 

Leverage
ShareInvest is a bundled leverage product between Easi-credit and Share Financing.   Like any leverage products, the contract value traded can be several times greater than the margin funds or collaterals deposited with the broking house.  With leverage, it also means that the risk and return are similarly magnified several times.

 

Margin calls
A decline in the value of securities collateralized in your share financing account may result in margin calls or requests to place additional funds on deposit with the broker to cover the short fall in the margin requirement level to maintain the position. In the case when an investor is unable to put in the additional funds, the broker may close out the position. In addition, the holder will still be liable for any further losses that may have resulted from the position being closed out.
