Westpac has surpassed its $500 million capital raise from retail investors, despite the major bank facing scrutiny from the corporate regulator.

" ["fulltext"]=> string(1499) "

In the weeks leading up to the capital raise, it came out that Australian anti-terrorism regulator AUSTRAC is seeking civil penalty orders against the big four bank for more than 23 million alleged breaches of the anti-money laundering laws.

While the scandal cost Westpac its CEO, the bank still managed to raise $770 million under its Share Purchase Plan (SPP).

The result this weeks saw Westpac issue approximately 31.9 million new shares on Wednesday to 40,990 applicants.

However, following the bank’s allowance for investors to walk away following the scandal, the final amount raised was $770 million, excluding $68 million from around 3,390 shareholders who no longer want to be a part of the SPP.

The share plan had been available to around 618,300 shareholders.

The major bank’s raise proved controversial, with some questioning how much it knew about a potential AUSTRAC enforcement.

Despite the strong gains in sections of the property market, investors are being reminded not to “put all your eggs in one basket”.

" ["fulltext"]=> string(2783) "

In a conversation on nestegg sister publication Smart Property Investment’s podcast, director of Rethink Investing Scott O’Neill discusses the importance of diversification when building a property portfolio.

Having previously invested in residential property, Mr O’Neill explained he has “moved more into commercial, so I’ve purchased four more commercials since then”.

“[I’ve] invested in a syndicate as well which is basically purchasing large-scale commercial assets but owning portions of it. It’s almost like a form of diversification. You’ve got bigger, better-quality tenants and you don’t have to own 100 per cent of the assets sometimes,” the property investor explained.

Knowing the businesses

Just like investing in residential property, it is vital for investors in commercial real estate to understand the market they are buying into.

While some leases “just need a tidy-up”, others have potential red flags that property managers need to be aware of.

“One thing I would always try and get from the current owner is bank statements, or at least rental receipts to see the timing of their payment, because if they’re paying in the first three days of every month for the last 12 months, that’s a pretty good indication they’re going to do that when you own it,” Mr O’Neill explained. 

Finally, the property manager advocates for visiting the site and having a conversation with the locals before purchasing any retail assets.

“A lot of just on-the-ground research, like going to see these properties, especially when it’s retail-related,” Mr O’Neill said.

“I don’t go look at all warehouses for instance, because you don’t care about foot traffic and stuff like that, but a good retail asset, like you know, a shopping centre, you need to go and just sit in it, have a chat to the café owners and that.”

Mr O’Neill concluded: “They’re always going to be the most negative, I’ve found, because, especially if some random [buyer] starts asking how business is, what benefit do they have to say they’re going great? But it’s still good to hear what they’ve got to say and just take it on board.”

As Aussies are preparing to hit the shops and spend on average $470 a person on quick and convenient gifts for others, they expect thoughtful gifts in return, new research has found.

" ["fulltext"]=> string(2534) "

New findings released by Suncorp Bank have revealed 40 per cent believe a card is a good gift while one in two agrees cash is an appropriate gift for others.

Australians are also a nation of regifters, as one in three believes it is okay to pass on an unwanted gift this Christmas.

While Aussies are happy to give presents that are quick and convenient, they expect a bit of thought when receiving presents, Suncorp revealed.

Nine in 10 consumers prefer to receive sentimental value over expensive gifts, three in four want presents that demonstrate an effort to make or find over expensive gifts and 90 per cent want gifts that are practical over prestigious brands.

Suncorp’s EGM for consumer banking, Chris Fleming, said there is a clear disconnect when it comes to the behaviours and expectations of gift-giving.

“Suncorp’s research tells us that when buying a present, our selection is largely based on the relationship we have with the person receiving the gift and the significance of the occasion. We’re actually not too focused on the amount of money we have allocated to spend or the expectations of the recipient,” Mr Fleming said.

How to budget better for celebration spending

Suncorp has revealed its four tips to help Australians reduce the cost of Christmas this year.

• Set up a dedicated bank account for your celebration spending and try transferring any money you have leftover at the end of the week.
• Start including one or two non-perishable food items in the food shop each week – that way you don’t need to do a bulk buy at once.
• Retailers are increasingly starting their sales earlier, so shop around for a good bargain.
• Write a list and stick to it – it sounds cliché, but it works.

While Boomers and Millennials tend to disagree, both have similar ideals when it comes to property investment, new research has suggested.

" ["fulltext"]=> string(2119) "

According to results released by the Australian Housing and Urban Research Institute (AHURI), 77 per cent of Millennials aspire to own a home, while 81 per cent of Aussies aged between 65-74 have similar goals.

“More than half of both groups want to live in a detached house and generally aim to have three bedrooms in that home,” the AHURI found. 

However, when it comes to the future of the property market, older and younger Aussies differ on their opinions.

“The great majority of older Australians (75 per cent) want to stay in their home in the short term, while only 41 per cent of younger Australians wanted to live in their current home over the next one or two years,” the AHURI report continued.

Nevertheless, large proportions of both younger and older Australians want to stay living in the same or a nearby neighbourhood, with 73 per cent of younger and 87 per cent of older Australians wanting to stay where they are or live within 10 kilometres of their current home.

There are also noteworthy differences in where older Australians and 25-34 age groups want to live.

While the “middle/outer suburbs of a capital city” were the most popular location for both groups, the younger households are much more interested in living in the CBD or inner suburbs of a capital city. 

Forty-four per cent of younger respondents said they would like to live there compared with 21 per cent of the older group.

Indeed, the next most popular location for the older group (after the middle/outer suburbs of a capital city) was living in a small regional town – a location that was popular with only 10 per cent of the younger households.

The trade war is a mess. Markets rise and fall on Donald Trump’s tweets, while stockbrokers pray that President Xi Jinping, an inscrutable Communist Party zealot, will switch things up with a bit of free market capitalism. Bloomberg has been insisting for over a year that we are just days away from a comprehensive deal – flashbacks to the infamous “Friedman Unit” here – while Trump administration officials grandstand on Fox News. 

In this environment, everybody has a prediction; everybody wants to be the Nostradamus who called the outcome by performing a comprehensive content analysis of CCP media releases to determine that Xi actually will kowtow to Trump’s demand to stop pumping subsidies into state-owned enterprises.

The fundamental misunderstanding that has shaped this sort of commentary on the trade war is that it’s about economics. Of course, that’s a logical assumption to make – you would hope that a trade war is about economics. 

But as the conflict rages on, with a viable resolution increasingly unlikely, it’s become clear that economics isn’t the real game. 

The word TARIFF is a beautiful word indeed

To understand the trade war, you have to understand how it’s being fought. 

The cornerstone tactic of the Trump administration has been tariffs. Here’s the thing about tariffs: people know what they are. They’re taxes on foreign goods. It’s not some moderately complex economic policy that would be easier to understand if you’d had the benefit of an undergraduate level education. Kentucky coal miners know what tariffs are, as do the conservative high school students who form a larger part of Trump’s base than most analysts care to admit. 

“When you are the ‘Piggy Bank’ Nation that foreign countries have been robbing and deceiving for years, the word TARIFF is a beautiful word indeed! Others must treat the United States fairly and with respect – We are no longer the ‘fools’ of the past!” President Trump tweeted on 2 June 2019. 

And that’s just it. People want something that’s easy to understand, something that sounds like it’s working – tariffs. 

The trade war was always about PR. 

The economic positives have been few, the negatives many. Global consumer confidence has been shaken to its core, and American farmers aren’t even getting much out of it. The only real beneficiary of the trade war has been Trump, whose appearance as a strongman willing to use brute force to get his way has played well with his base. Trump can point to tariffs – which make a hell of a splash when they’re announced – and say he’s doing something. And that’s all he needs to do. 

Predictions about the outcome fall flat because they use a logical, fact-based approach. That’s a mistake. The trade war is being fought by a television host and real estate developer who knows how to work a crowd, and that’s exactly what he’s doing. 

Doubt it?

Turn your attention to more recent developments. Trump has opened several new fronts in what’s becoming a global trade war by imposing tariffs on Brazil and Argentina over baseless accusations they had intentionally devalued their currency. The move caught markets completely off guard, but Trump’s fans went wild. With Trump now threatening to impose tariffs on France – with little justification – it’s becoming more and more clear that the trade war is about hearts and minds, not soybeans and pork.
