Case study: Borrowing for personal goals

It may be possible to borrow against the value of an investment portfolio to fund your passions.

 

Client

A hard-working family wanted to purchase a yacht to enjoy during their holidays.

Challenge

The family wanted to raise capital without liquidating their existing investments and potentially triggering a tax liability. They needed to make the payment for their chosen boat in Euros and purchase the asset within a special purpose vehicle (SPV).

Solution

Investec was able to offer a £3.5m loan secured against the value of a portfolio managed by Investec Wealth & Investment and convert the funds into Euros.
