With our banking systems of Nedbank and Investec we can offer the immediate opening of investment accounts in the name of a non-resident (South Africans living abroad) or resident in the local currency.

As the appointed agent, we administer your funds, invested with Nedbank Corporate Saver or Investec Corporate Cash Manager, on your behalf, through an administrator system situated at our offices in Table View and Constantia (Cape Town). These facilities offer you the high interest of a savings account combined with convenience of a current account.

You can choose between:

• Call account, availability of funds at all times, no minimum or maximum balances
• Accounts linked to money market
• Fixed Deposits and Term Deposits

The interest rates are very attractive and are market related as well as determined by the total holdings of our client base, allowing you to benefit from the total book value under our administration.

These accounts are often used to facilitate the needs of foreigners opening local bank accounts as non-residents for rental income, Income Tax, VAT and investment purposes.

Besides our administration fee, which gets deducted from the interest earned on your accounts, you do not need to pay any bank charges. Please note that Nedbank Corporate Saver will introduce charges on the call account from October 2008 onwards. The bank systems are internet based and ensure that all your dealings are through us. That includes the opening of the accounts, deposits and withdrawals, statements, bank guarantees, interest instructions and electronic fund transfers (EFT). At month-end you receive a bank statement showing all transactions and interest earned on your accounts.

Third party payments, debit orders and stop-orders can be installed directly from your call account.

Euroconsulting acts as your agent. All your investments placed with Investec and Nedbank are in your name. You receive a unique number. Your funds will never be placed in a bucket account with other funds. With Nedbank you will be able to view your accounts online. We will provide you with the necessary internet access and password. We are remunerated by our clients, based on a sliding fee scale that is fully disclosed on the statements. Our admin fee is taken directly from the interest earned on your investment. No other bank fees are charged.
