Merx Wholesale 1 PIE Trust

Fund Performance

The Merx Wholesale 1 PIE Trust invests in loans to unrelated borrowers in the local business and property sectors. PIE tax compliant and structured as a unit trust, the fund allows wholesale investors to keep more of their investment returns while providing flexibility, liquidity, and reduced concentration risk.

We aim to deliver consistent returns of over 10% p.a. to our investors, with net returns distributed monthly. Many investors choose to reinvest and compound their returns.

As shown in the table below, actual net returns have consistently exceeded our targets since inception, offering strong and consistent returns to our investors.
