The Cash Advantage Fund (CAF) is a Managed Fund where a number of investors pool money into one fund. The CAF is specifically designed to operate in a similar way to a traditional On-Call Savings Account. It has been structured as a Portfolio Investment Entity (PIE) which means you'll probably receive tax benefits.

AMP Capital Investors are responsible for the management and operation of the Fund. When you invest in the Cash Advantage Fund your money will be on deposit with AAA Rabobank.

I am on a 33% tax rate. Am I better off investing in 1 year term deposits or cash advantage fund?

Mike Heath: Patricia, with the Cash Advantage Fund @ 3.50%, and your PIR rate of 30%, the tax effective rate is approximately 3.71% whereas the rate for the 1 year TD is 5.60. On this basis you would earn more interest from the 1 year TD.

You are showing the comparative effective rate (for a person on a 38% marginal tax rate) for BNZ's Cash Pie as 3.90% pa. However the BNZ website shows their effective rate as 4.01% pa. That's quite a big difference. Who is correct on the BNZ rate?

John Baird - Operations Manager: Hi Craig, the figures you quote are from the schedule of the base rates on offer, not the effective rate. Please refer to the "compare" page where you'll find the detail.
