How is Portfolio LVR calculated?

CommSec Portfolio LVR is an enhanced feature of the CommSec Margin Loan which rewards investors who hold diversified portfolios. Portfolio LVR provides higher loan to value ratios (LVRs) on equities on our approved list. As an added bonus, it also provides LVRs on securities which usually have 0% Standard LVR (Bonus Stocks). Portfolio LVR is calculated as follows:

  • If the approved equity has a non-zero standard LVR - Portfolio LVR = Standard LVR + 5%
  • If the approved equity has a 0% standard LVR - Portfolio LVR = 40%

Standard LVR is the LVR applicable to equities where an investor holds 2 to 4 approved securities in their portfolio.
