What is a loan?
A loan is an amount of money you borrow from a financial institution and pay back in regular installments over a set time period, with interest.

Investment loan*
- Borrowing to invest (also known as leveraging) can help you grow your non-registered investment portfolio and build wealth.
- However, this tactic can also magnify your investment losses, so it may not suit every investor.
- Talk with your advisor before you borrow to invest.**
- Footnote *
- * While borrowing to invest has potential benefits (investing an initial lump sum creates greater potential for compound-growth compared to making smaller regular investment purchases), it also has potential risks and can magnify losses (market volatility may result in poor investment returns and the possibility of owing more on the loan than the investments are worth).
- Footnote **
- ** While borrowing to invest can be a powerful means to build wealth, the risks involved make it a strategy that is not suitable for everyone. Your financial security advisor can help you determine if borrowing to invest is a strategy that is right for you.
