This Institution is to be formed for the purpose of transacting the business of a Loan and Investment Company. - It is proposed to raise money m Great Britain, by the issue of Debentures at English rates of interest, to be lent upon approved estates within the Colony of New Zealand ; the difference m the rates of interest constituting the main source of profit to tho Company. The Company will also, on commission, receive money m Great Britain for investment m New Zealand, m tho name of the lender or of the Company, and either with or without the Company's guarantee. The borrowing powers of the Company, whether on debentures or otherwise, will be limited to the amount of the uncalled capital. The investment of the debenture money on good seonrities will afford a guarantee of safety alike to the debenture-holder and shareholder m the Company. Sound institutions of a similar character have no difficulty m placing their debentures at low rates of interest, and it is believed that this Company will readily secure tho whole amount of money needed for successfully carrying on its operations. Ail such Companies, well managed, have been successful, affording the most complete security to those who lend on the Company's debentures, and to the shareholder who invests ilia money m the undertaking, and extends to it hia guarantee. The following table shows tho name of similar undertakings, and indicates the success which has followed their operations : — 1 *§ 51 i «Se,s 2g '"•gS 2 Name o! Company.
