    Hi

    I have a margin loan with CBA -

    am I right in thinking that there is no actual difference between the fixed rate versus the variable rate.

    In other words the fixed rate is payable in advance (8.75%) whereas the variable is monthly in arrears (9.25%).

    Thus the "difference" is merely the time element of paying in arrears or in advance (whereas "normal" "fixed versus variable" reflect different factors as to the future of money rates in general.

    PS I have another question on margin loans but I won't confuse the two questions.
