We will independently verify the identity of any investor or representative, shareholder, beneficiary or guarantor of an investing entity. You represent and warrant that you have the full authority to engage in any investment you undertake and bind any investing entity you represent.
Investors will invest in “cash units” in the OurMoneyMarket Investment Trust (“MIS“) as described in the Product Disclosure Statement (available at www.ourmoneymarket.com/legal/pds). The Trustee of the MIS is Melbourne Securities Corporation Limited ACN 160 326 545 (Australian Financial Services Licence 428289 Australian Credit Licence 428289).
Once you have invested in “cash units”, you will be able to view the details of loans made available for investment on the OurMoneyMarket Holdings online lending platform (“OurMoneyMarket Platform“).
A “cash unit” investor may be invited to convert their “cash units” into “committed funding cash units” (as described in the MIS Constitution) in the MIS in which case the investor will be issued an investment order.
You agree that by confirming the investment order, you make an irrevocable, binding and legally enforceable offer to invest in one or more loan investments listed in the investment order. By confirming the investment order you are entering into an agreement with OurMoneyMarket Pty Ltd (“OurMoneyMarket“), the Manager of the MIS, in accordance with the terms of the offer set out in the MIS Constitution, the investment order and any other document referred to or accompanying the investment order.
If your investment order is successful (and subject to a loan being issued to the respective borrower), an equivalent amount of your “cash units” will be converted to “committed funding cash units” in the MIS.
You represent and warrant that you have the full authority to engage in any transaction you undertake.
You will be liable for all costs, fees, charges and other amounts which may become payable to OurMoneyMarket or any other person as a result of investing through the use of the OurMoneyMarket Platform.
