So i was poking around the net and I see this company basically offering 8% return on a cash investment over a period of years. They are using the collateral of business equipment to guarantee your money.
Has anyone seen this?
$75,000 - 4 Year return (48month) - 8%
Option A1 - Monthly payments of $1,812.50 (48months)
Option A2 - $7,500 at the end of years 1 and 2, and then 24 monthly payments of $3,234.60 (48months)
B) $75,000 - 5 Year return (60month) - 8%
Option B3 - Monthly payments of $1,500.00 (60months)
Option B4 - $10,000 at the end of years 1, 2 and 3. Then 24 monthly payments of $2,790.65 (60months)
C) $75,000 - 7 Year return (84month) - 8.75%
Option C5 - Monthly payments of $1,166.30 (84months)
Option C6 - $10,000 at the end of years 1, 2 and 3. Then 48 monthly payments of $1,560.77 (84months)

These are not new investment instruments. In fact, this is commercial paper or Asset Backed Commercial Paper (ABCP) --- the type that froze-up in 2007 with many Canadian's being hit with significant losses.
What is old is new again and just understand the risk before investing. They are not a guarantee, they can become illiquid and the higher return is based simply on the higher risk you will assume.

You know what they say...If something sounds too good to be true it is probably false.....I would stay away.
