Cash Management Trusts
Cash Management Trusts are an invaluable investment tool Leyland Private Asset Management uses as a holding account for funds awaiting investment. CMT providers generally invest in high quality, short-term bank-backed securities.
Leyland will open a CMT for each client with either Macquarie or BankWest Managed Investments. CMT’s are very effective for consolidating all of the cash associated with the investment and provide the following benefits:
- Direct Debit for purchases
- Direct Credit for sales
- Direct Credit for dividend payments
- Direct Credit for corporate actions
- High interest rate
- Funds available at call
- No entry, exit or account keeping fees
- Detailed regular reporting (in addition to WAPAM access)
- Monthly payments can be arranged (very efficient for self managed super funds)

BankWest Managed Investments CMT’s are held on deposit with BankWest, which has a Standard & Poor’s Issuer Credit Rating of ‘A+/A-1’
