It also has an independent compliance committee that includes two external expert compliance members.

Investors are offered the opportunity to invest in a range of mortgages under various Syndicate SPDSs. Each Mortgage Investment is secured against commercial and industrial property or in limited instances against residential property or more than one property of the same type or a combination of different types of property. The relevant security property or properties for any particular Mortgage Investment is detailed in the relevant Syndicate SPDS.
Application for membership of a Syndicate, that is, in a particular Mortgage Investment, is made in accordance with the application form that accompanies the relevant Syndicate SPDS. A Member of a Syndicate (or its nominee) holds, with other Members of that Syndicate, a registered mortgage over the mortgaged property with the investor/s on title and, generally, there is minimal capital risk to the Member of a Syndicate.
ASIC requires that we appoint a panel of valuers and all valuations must be under instructions given by Baccus Investments Limited. We do not accept valuations prepared under the instructions of the borrowers.
ASIC also requires that valuers, where possible, are registered under a State or Territory valuer registration scheme and include a statement in their valuation report on whether the valuation complies with all relevant industry standards and codes. We also require valuers to hold the appropriate professional indemnity insurance or if they don't, that the investors provide prior written approval for us to use that valuer for that Syndicate.
The legal work in respect of mortgage matters is handled by our in-house legal team of solicitors.
