The ASCEND MIC Investor Advantage
Higher returns, lower risks for your portfolio
What exactly is the benefit of ASCEND MIC to investors? The simple answer is that a MIC offers investors traditionally high rates of return at relatively low levels of risk. And that’s certainly the case at ASCEND MIC.
Where does this high return/low risk formula come from? Again, it’s simple: Canada’s mortgage industry is one of the safest in the world. For one thing, Canadian markets tend to be more stable than others. For another thing, mortgages are a safer investment because they are backed by the assets in question: the properties that are being mortgaged.
So, if a mortgage defaults, there are still assets left that sustain an underlying value in the investment. It’s a feature of a MIC that simply is not present with other forms of investment, such as bonds and GICs, especially with the kind of return and safety involved.
The power of investing in mortgages
Think about what a mortgage actually is. Most people see it as a way to borrow in order to buy a house or a building. However, when the borrower takes the money to buy the property, somebody is giving them the money.
Traditionally, it’s been banks. But, with a MIC, these mortgages are pooled in such a way so that you don’t have to worry about the administration, processing, regulatory adherence, default, etc. You, the investor, is providing the investment capital, while we take care of that management so that you receive your rate of returns in a predictable and consistent fashion.
As a result, investing in ASCEND MIC offers a superb alternative to traditional equity and fixed-income investments, such as bonds and GICs.
