Benefits of a Cash-backed Loan
Easy access
Deposits held in a Call or instant access account serve as collateral for your personal loan
Full access
Realise the full value of your cash deposits if your loan is in the same currency as your deposit
Choice
Exercise the option to request a guarantee should this be preferred over a personal loan
Simplicity
Enjoy the benefit of quarterly interest payments that minimise monthly transactions
How it works
- Borrow against your cash or deposits held in an International Saver account, 1-Year Fixed Term Deposit or Structured Product
- Borrow between 50% and 95% of the value of your deposits, depending on the account currency and type, time to maturity and notice period
- Loans against cash deposits can unlock 100% of the value of your deposits, if the loan is in the same currency
- If the cash deposit and loan currency differ, a security margin of 10% or 20% is required
- ‘Rolled-up’ interest is settled when the loan expires, using proceeds from your deposit account
- Interest is applied quarterly in arrears and settled when your deposit matures or the notice period expires
- You are required to maintain a minimum balance equivalent to the loan amount, which must be mandated to the Bank for the full term of the loan
See Cash Backed Loan factsheet
How to get it
- You need an existing qualifying Standard Bank Call or instant access account, term deposit or Structured Product

Establishing an Offshore Trust: Practicalities and Considerations
Families choose to establish trusts for many different reasons. It may be to ensure that wealth is passed between generations in a controlled manner; to provide some form of jurisdictional and asset diversification; to ensure that assets are protected from political or economic volatility, or simply to ensure that wealth passes between generations without the delays and stress of the probate process.

Diversify your portfolio with international structured products
If you live in a country with a weak currency, then you would probably see the sense in taking money offshore to store and invest in a major currency. The overriding benefit of this move is that your international buying power won’t be eroded because your currency is devaluing against the likes of the US dollar, pound sterling or euro.
