A Div 7A Loan Agreement is a Loan Agreement between a business owner, director or shareholders and their trading entity.

A Div 7A Loan Agreement allows a business owner, director or shareholder to loan money from their business at a set rate over a defined period.

Given the nature of Div 7A Loan Agreements, they have become a focus of attention for the Australian Taxation Office. Formalising your Div 7A Loan Agreement cements the arrangement and complies with ATO requirements.

Part of our Div 7A Loan Agreement Package is our Loan Management Dashboard which gives you complete access to your loan agreement on an ongoing basis.

There are several reports available through the Loan Management Dashboard. The most popular is the end of year payments report which outlines all payments made for the period including a principal and interest breakdown. This is especially handy for your accountant and can save hours upon hours of work come tax time.
