Detailed Instructions:
1.  

Gather all your latest mutual fund account statements. You will need them to build your loan and also to Apply later.

2.   Enter your mutual funds using their names OR their trading symbols. Enter each individual mutual fund one at a time in the indicated field and click on the Accept/Review button. When you have all of your mutual fund names click on Continue to LoanBuilder.
3.   If you are unsure of a name or symbol then enter the first letter or two of the symbol or name and click the Accept/Review button. A list of possible correct fund names will appear.
  * Simply check the proper fund (more than one can be checked if you own others on the displayed list). Then click the Process Selections button and your Asset Table will appear. You can repeat this process as many times as you need to build a complete list of all your securities. You can also return to this page at any time to add additional mutual funds.
  * IMPORTANT! It is essential to enter ALL of your mutual funds when you begin, even if you do not intend on using each of them as collateral for your loan. LATER, YOU WILL HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO ELIMINATE INDIVIDUAL FUNDS OR REDUCE YOUR MAXIMUM CREDIT LINE.  This  will enable us to deliver to you a quotation for the maximum amount of your credit line, and provides you with the greatest flexibility in selecting the terms of your loan.
  * If you have entered the correct name or cannot find the name of your mutual fund on the look up list, then we do not lend on this fund at this time. Possible reasons for this could be that your mutual fund may not qualify for our service.
  * You can always click on Live Help (below) or call (800) 670-0650 to double check whether we can make a loan on a given mutual fund.
4.   Enter your exact number of Units owned of each mutual fund. Click Enter/Change Units and the current price for your Collateral Value will appear.  The price comes from the prior day that the markets were open. You will also see your Maximum Credit Line displayed.
5.   OPTIONAL
Now that you have gotten all your assets into your Asset List why not save this information for your future use? It's anonymous, password protected accessible only by you. Saving your Asset List is not required to proceed.
6.   Next decide how much you want for your Credit Line. Than enter your Initial Check Amount. The Max Payment displayed is only paid if the entire Credit Line is requested and used. The Payment displayed depends on your Requested Credit Line.
  * Your actual payment will vary on a monthly basis according to how much of the credit line is used and on the current Prime Rate.  (See Loan Documents and read the Line of Credit Note).  You only pay interest on what you use.
  * If you decide not to request your Maximum Credit Line available simply change the Requested Credit Line amount and the LoanBuilder will automatically reduce the required collateral listed on your Asset List. The LoanBuilder will eliminate the more volatile collateral first and since our interest rates are tied to the volatility of your fund shares you may well see a reduction in your interest rate.
  * Our Self-Design LoanBuilder allows you to get exactly the loan you want at the very lowest possible interest rate with the monthly payment that fits your budget.
7.   Once you have the loan you want you can Apply or Save the results anonymously and come back to apply at your convenience.
  * When you click the Apply button your Loan Documents will be automatically completed.
