Margin loan interest rates

The BT Margin Lending_Online interest rates can apply only when you link a BT Margin Loan to a Westpac Online Investing account. Prepaying a fixed interest rate allows you to lock in interest rate certainty for up to a year and allows for easier cash flow management.

The interest paid may also be tax deductible depending on your personal circumstances and subject to the prepayment tax rules. Tax laws are complex and may change over time, possibly with retrospective application. You should consult a tax specialist or your financial adviser regarding the tax consequences of investing in a margin loan.
