JL he company issues Debentures on the following terms : —
Debentures for five years at 4i per cent, interest.
Debentures for three years at 4 per cent, interest.
These Debentures, which are issued free of expense, are for amounts of £100 or
upwards, in such sums as may suit lenders. Coupons for the interest are attached
to the Bonds, and these are payable half-yearly, at the Royal Bank of Scotland,
either in Edinburgh or London, and can be cashed anywhere free of charge.
In addition to the general Assets of the Company, Debenture Holders have the
security of the Subscribed and Uncalled Capital, which is the limit of the borrowing
power. This Capital has been subscribed by upwards of 400 Shareholders.
There being an influential body of Shareholders resident in the Colony, secures
careful management there.
The Investments of the Company consist of Mortgages on Land, and on other
Securities on which a valid Mortgage can be obtained by the laws of the Australian
Colonies. The Loans by the Company are chiefly for short periods, and the Capital
is thus readily available for repayment of Debentures falling due.
