A New Zealand PIE fund that pools wholesale capital into property-secured business lending. Monthly distributions, disciplined LVR limits, and a 28% PIR cap on tax for individuals.
Wholesale Investors OnlyReturns are after fees, before tax. Returns are not guaranteed and may vary. Past performance is not a guarantee of future returns and capital is at risk. See IM and SIPO for more details.
Move the slider or type an amount, then select your highest income tax rate, to see how the Fund's target 8% p.a. return could look as annual and monthly distributions, before and after Prescribed Investor Rate (PIR) tax, which is capped at 28% for individuals.
Minimum wholesale investment NZD $150,000. Amounts below the minimum are rounded up, and amounts above NZD $2,000,000 are shown at the $2,000,000 cap, for this estimate.
Your PIR is based on your taxable income over the last two years. As a guide: income tax rates of 10.5% and 17.5% map to a matching PIR, and rates of 30%, 33% and 39% map to the 28% PIR, the cap for individuals.
At a target 8% p.a. return
This is a simplified example. This could result in tax of approximately $600 less per year than if the same distributions were taxed at your 33% income tax rate. Your PIR depends on your taxable income over the last two years. Not tax advice.
This is a simplified example and is indicative only. Actual monthly distributions vary with days in the month. 8% p.a. is after fees, before tax, and is not guaranteed. NZ individual investors are taxed inside the PIE at a 28% PIR ceiling. All investments carry risk, including the risk of capital loss. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance. Not financial advice.
The Blossum Wholesale Investment Fund offers wholesale investors a disciplined way to put capital to work. Your capital is deployed into secured business lending across New Zealand, with registered mortgage security behind every loan.
New Zealand's banks now put a more limited share of their balance sheets toward non-standard lending such as bridging, development and time-sensitive funding. That has opened an access gap: strong borrowers with sound property security cannot always get timely finance. The Fund lends into that gap on conservative terms, giving wholesale investors returns generated from loans secured over New Zealand property.
Private credit can offer higher yields than public debt markets, reflecting its bespoke nature and active management. The Fund seeks 8% p.a. returns (after fees, before tax), supported by disciplined LVR limits and secured lending.
Loans are secured against real property through registered first and second mortgages, supported by conservative valuations and loan-to-value limits, with LVR managed to a weighted average cap of 75% across the portfolio. A secured-lending framework that helps manage risk.
Returns are driven by interest on secured loans rather than public-market sentiment, which can make secured private credit a useful diversifier through uncertain economic cycles. Returns are not contracted or guaranteed.
Available to wholesale investors only, as defined under the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013. The 8% p.a. figure is not a guarantee, and actual returns may differ. All investments carry risk, including the risk of loss of capital. This is general information, not financial advice. Seek independent advice before investing.
Four checks stand behind every loan the Fund writes. LVR is managed prudently, with the portfolio held to a weighted average cap of 75%.
In-depth credit assessment and stress testing on every loan before it is approved. We verify borrower cash flows and credit history, and complete title, PPSR and legal checks before settlement.
Security is assessed on conservative valuations, with title and ranking confirmed.
Borrower performance and covenants are monitored monthly throughout each loan term.
The Investment Committee provides ongoing credit oversight as well as quarterly loan book reviews.
We make investment in mortgage-secured lending straightforward for wholesale investors: easy onboarding and dedicated Investment Managers always on hand to answer questions.
Our team lends prudently and stays close to every borrower for the life of the loan. If a loan needs attention, we act early and keep you informed.
We deduct PIR, pay your monthly distributions to your nominated bank account, and issue monthly statements plus a year-end summary, all the paperwork sorted for you.
Your investment is not designed to be tied to one borrower or one property. The Fund pools wholesale capital and lends it across many loans, each secured by first and second registered mortgages over New Zealand property, so no single loan decides your outcome.
Your money sits across the whole loan book, and may be spread over business and property borrowers throughout New Zealand. If one loan repays early or needs attention, the rest keep working.
Every loan in the book is secured by first and second registered mortgages over New Zealand property, supported by conservative valuations.
LVR is capped at a weighted average of 75% across the portfolio.
The Fund targets 8% p.a., paid as monthly distributions, funded by interest from across the whole book rather than any single loan. 8% p.a. is after fees, before tax, and is not guaranteed.

Tax on income from NZ-source interest in our PIE fund is capped at the investor’s Prescribed Investor Rate (PIR), with a maximum of 28% for individuals.

You invest in the Blossum Wholesale Investment Fund, a New Zealand PIE fund. The Fund pools wholesale capital and lends it to business and property borrowers, with each loan secured by first and second mortgages over NZ property. You receive monthly distributions from the Fund, with tax handled inside the PIE structure at your PIR.
Borrowers seek funding from Blossum for short-term, flexible funding (e.g., bridging or working capital) when timing, structure, or security requirements don’t fit standard bank lending. Each loan is assessed on creditworthiness and security, with terms set out in the loan agreement.
Yes. The Fund is a Portfolio Investment Entity (PIE). Income attributed to you is taxed inside the PIE at your Prescribed Investor Rate (PIR), which is capped at 28% for NZ-resident individual investors. We account for PIE tax inside the Fund, and you receive your distributions net of PIE tax.
This isn’t tax advice. Please seek advice for your situation and circumstances. Find out more here.
We look at a borrower’s ability and willingness to repay, including (as relevant) cash flow, leverage and liquidity, security values/LVR, sector conditions, and exit strategy. We also review credit history of the borrower and key principals (e.g., defaults, judgments, insolvency, litigation) and complete standard KYC/AML checks.
Borrowers can repay their loans early, in line with their loan agreements with the Fund. When that happens, the Fund receives the principal plus any interest accrued to the repayment date, and our team redeploys that capital into new lending opportunities. Your investment in the Fund continues as normal, and you keep receiving monthly distributions of Fund income.
Loans are secured by first and second mortgages over the borrower’s property and/or other acceptable security, assessed deal by deal. LVR is tightly managed, with the portfolio held to a weighted average cap of 75%. Security and ranking are detailed for each loan.
Your investment in the Fund has a minimum lock-in period of six months. After that, withdrawals are subject to the notice and payout periods set out in the Fund documentation provided before you invest.
All investing carries risk. These risks can include a borrower defaulting on a payment, or security being insufficient to recover the full amount of capital. Blossum takes a conservative, secured-lending approach, with LVR managed to a weighted average cap of 75% across the portfolio and active monitoring throughout each loan term.
As with any investment, there is always an element of risk, including the risk of capital loss, so it is important to understand these risks before committing capital. The Fund targets an 8% return p.a.; this target is after fees, before tax, and is not guaranteed. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance.
