What are the Tax Implications of a Capital-Protected Loan in Perth?

Capital-protected loans are typically structured over several fixed years on an interest-only arrangement. They are commonly used for acquiring a portfolio of shares and are like instalment warrants with a limited recourse by the bank to pursue the assets of the investor. An investor benefits from protection against declining share prices through a capital protection feature embedded in the loan facility. This feature grants the investor the right to transfer the shares back to the lender to repay the loan.
