Your Legacy Livestock Finance Facility enables you to fund 100% of the GST inclusive purchase price of livestock you purchase.
First, we work with you to agree an overarching Livestock Finance Facility Limit (*) that meets your business needs.
Once your Legacy Livestock Finance Facility is approved, each time you purchase livestock send us the invoice and we’ll draw a new loan under your Legacy Livestock Finance Facility and settle the purchase invoice directly with the livestock vendor or their agent.
If your loan is for trading livestock, when you sell livestock the subject of a Legacy Livestock loan, all sale proceeds are directed to Legacy Livestock. We repay the purchase price and the associated interest for the livestock sold and pay the surplus to your bank account. We do this on a per head basis, so that the profit is paid out to you progressively as you sell down the livestock.
If your facility is for breeding livestock, the loan will be repaid via monthly repayments over a term of 3 to 5 years (amortising loan). The sale proceeds of any livestock funded by an amortising loan must also be directed to reduction of the loan balance.
(*) Subject to credit assessment and approval.
You own the livestock. We are simply providing a loan to fund the GST inclusive purchase cost.
The amount of information we require varies depending on the size of the Legacy Livestock Finance Facility Limit you are seeking. Typically, we’ll need the following:
- A completed application form
- A current statement of assets and liabilities
- Your most recent financial statements
- A farm visit so that we can develop a good understanding of your business and what you are trying to achieve.
Our interest rates are a combination of the Legacy Livestock reference rate and a client margin.
The Legacy Livestock reference rate is the one month BBSY + 6.25% pa. You can follow this link to see the BBSY – (Bank Bill Swap Rates (Mid) – 10 Day History). We update our reference rate monthly to take into account any movements in BBSY.
As we progress through the application process we assign a client margin that reflects the best possible rate we can offer you, taking all relevant information into consideration. Our client margins vary from 1% to 6.5% pa.
