Financing examples are illustrative and do not constitute an offer of credit. Availability depends on the client profile, collateral, property, jurisdiction and lender approval. Portfolio-backed lending may be illustrated at up to approximately 70% loan-to-value where suitable. Actual lending value depends on portfolio composition, concentration, volatility, liquidity, currency, jurisdiction and lender approval. Borrowing below the maximum leaves a buffer if markets fall. Mortgage approval depends on income, residency, property value and lender. How Smart Financing works.
