My uncle wishes to loan his sons Unit Trust money for the purchase of a factory in which they run their business. Approx. $1-2million.


He wishes to charge them a nominal amount of fixed interest (approx. 3.25%).


He would declare the interest earned in his tax return but after tax the amount will give him a comfortable amount to live off. He is a self funded retiree.


Are there tax implications or could this be construed as avoidance if he is not charging commercial interest rates?

Not avoidance on these facts, but laon should be properly documented and secured.


Need to see a lawyer for that.
